- In the heart of the hot desert, where the sun blazes in a relentless display of power, there exists a breathtaking beauty that is both awe-inspiring and dangerous. It is a land of extremes, where the landscape seems to stretch endlessly in every direction. One encounters the raw power of nature. Its unrelenting heat, biting cold, and vast desolation remind us of the untamed forces in the world. It pushes us to our limits, questioning our will to survive, and in doing so, it reveals the depths of our strength and character, from the gold dunes of the Sahara to the depths of the Grand Canyon. From the surreal terrain of Joshua tree to the unforgiving intense heat of Death Valley, the desert demands careful planning and preparation. These harsh environments teach us to be vigilant and equipped. Survival in the desert often hinges on relying on our inner resources to overcome adversity. The desert is an unforgiving teacher. It emphasizes the importance of measured steps and the wisdom of caution. To survive in the hot desert, one must be as resilient and adaptive as the very life that thrives there.

Why do people always say you have to go to the desert to find yourself? I lived in the Mojave desert for 40 years, it doesn't work. If you want to find yourself go to the forest, not some God forsaken desert.
LoL!! smh....hehehe!... I live in Albuquerque, NM. I've been here for 19 years now, but I grew up in Riverside, CA. Well, actually Woodcrest, but nobody ever knows where Woodcrest is, so...yanno. But yah, having grown up in Riverside, I'm more than able to see the humor in your comment. :-D
We are all different- for you a forest works for others the desert works
@@nicolenotizieeamiciwould the desert work for you, seriously?!!
I bet it won't!!
Why do people believe they have to go out into the wild to be able to find themselves? Finding yourself only requires you to do some introspection and self-questioning, this is something you can do in the safety of your own home without needing to put yourself in a potentially dangerous situation.
I understand wanting to go out and experience the wilderness simply for the sake of it, but I just cringe when I see people talking about wanting to go out to find themself or whatever, as if 'themself' is something that can be found anywhere in this physical realm. I think what these types of people are really looking for is some peace and quiet along with a break from the rat race, this can be achieved with far less drastic and risky measures.
😂😂😂I’d much rather go to the forest, yes.
A Plymouth minivan on a dirt road in Death Valley. What could possibly go wrong?
Only a Germán...
🤣
The desert camel story is wild 😂, also that he had to pay a fine because the car papers didn't match😂
Yes it is lol
Thanks again for all your hard work putting together these amazing and interesting videos!!!❤ Deserts are indeed beautiful and fascinating! Too many things can go wrong though; I'll pass.
I cant believe how strong Claire is. When people make those videos- if they do survive- they usually are very private and no one but maybe some loved ones ever see them. I cant imagine going through that.
Yessss! The Desert is nothing to play with, even the plants are aggressive in the desert in the US southwest (Joshua trees, various cacti)
I don't know if people know this but some of those Joshua trees are over a thousand years old.
Oh man, don't start me on old trees!! One of my favorite subjects❤
Yeah I learned the other day their actually overgrown plants, not a tree at all.
@@jackfischer5153 they're not a tree? Wow! That I didn't know.
That’s why it’s illegal to take them.
@@jackfischer5153ok. Then how do you define the difference between a plant and a tree. Where I'm from trees survive all 4 seasons year after year for many years. Plants survive for less than a year dying during one of the seasons usually winter.
I was lucky enough to spend the night in the Sahara desert. But very safe with Bedouin guides.
Nobody touched you, or anything?
I've been to the Grand Canyon many times. You can die of the heat in the summer and you can freeze to death in the winter.
It's almost like it gets hot in the summer and cold in winter? Weird!!
I’m new to this site and everything I’ve seen here has been AMAZING. Did I mention that this site is AMAZING !
You won’t be disappointed with ANY Of the videos. I honestly can’t say that one video is better than the other because they are ALL so good.
I can’t understand why would people want to go to a desert. Nothing good can come out of it
For the experience. That's why.
@@buffalobill9793 Obviously; human arrogance
Thank you for sharing these stories.
Thank you for watching!
Great live chat. If you weren't there you missed out!
The key question is whether the woman pictured in the thumbnail is going to be in the desert with you 🤣
🤣🤣
I sure hope she makes it 👉 seriously though, the desert has always held a peculiar fascination for me whether it be movie scenes or song lyrics or survival experiences. it is an environment where a person will have no choice but to realize his or her own ‘size’ in the unfathomable vastness of our universe. ( or something like that) 🎉
😂
@@1videoluvr This is probably one reason deserts figure very prominently in many religious texts.
@1videoluvr The desert, the ocean, the mountains, the back country- I will never understand how people can choose to be in these places. I wish I liked nature.
This comes in handy as I live in Nevada 🤪💪💋
Marathon in the desert is really dangerous…geez 4:58
Desert Camel,Fantastic. I had myself for many Years a 2CV and it was slow but the Engine was forever Working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are now Worth a lot of Money
Claire is so beautiful im glad she survived
I really enjoyed this one!
Thank you so much!
Isn't being married with three children challenge enough? And why are their legs so short?
How could they not believe the Italian athlete? We've all heard worse stories of survival
Correction the largest canyon in the world is Kali Gandaki Gorge in Nepal .and the Yarlung Tsangpo Canyon in Tibet is the second largest Canyon, and the Colca Canyon in Peru is the third largest. And even the Copper Canyon is larger than the Grand Canyon. And there are several more that are deeper than the Grand Canyon like the Hells Canyon that is almost 2,000 feet Deeper. And it's not the widest either. The Grand Canyon is the largest Gourge in the world.
Rattlesnakes are not nocturnal? It's a good thing that she didn't know that that's 100% wrong. Rattlesnakes are actually more active at night than they are in the daytime as long as it doesn't get too cold.
Life lesson if find yourself in a" Sand storm " stay put its just common sense, unfortunately his Ego got the better of him. Any Army any where in the world asks for your assistance always comply, don't drive down any rocky road especially in a Citroën Lunacy
So, the police discover a survivor in the desert and fine him for not having the proper documentation to operate the contraption he built to save his life? Do I have all this wrong?
I wanna trip to go see the lizard king and Jim Morrison in the desert.
The west is the best…
Such bad decisions. No wonder things go wrong.
In the desert....no ropes, no form of SHADE or sufficient water......and they are with experienced guides??
Ok Outdoor, I'm tired of hearing about the guy who ate bats! OTHERWISE, I love your channel ❤
How to survive in the Deadly Deserts? Answer: Don't go there!
Well thanks for that genius. That doesn't answer the question. It only ensures you won't die in one. Does absolutely nothing to explain how to survive there. Why bother leaving a comment if your just going to be stupid. Truth likely is you know nothing about how to survive in a desert and would die for sure.
@@buffalobill9793
*NOBODY can survive in the Desert* , that's why people don't live there! Why would you go there anyway? I'm not that stupid to put my life in danger for no good reason.
Best way to survive the deadly desert is to not go into the deadly desert in the first place. "finding yourself" has nothing to do with being in the desert or being atop the Eiffel Tower. If you are of the mindset where you feel you have to go to the desert to find yourself, you will never find yourself, anywhere.
Why would anyone want to do that desert marathon, I don’t get it
Some people are driven by something we can't understand.
When people have children, they should be forbidden to take excessive risks in these "sports". People themselves seem to value a run or a climb more than being a father to their children 😑
That's because ' mountain climbers, cave divers, and people that leap off cliffs, are typically self centered narcissistic, glory seekers
Man, that German family was such a sad story. I feel bad for the kids and the wife. I don't mean to sound harsh but how dumb do you have to be to take an off-road DEATH VALLEY trip on a mini van. Maybe just a lapse of judgment but it's very unfortunate that all those lives lost due to blatant stupidity. Hopefully their story prevents the death of any other innocent person but, is unfortunate that it played out that way nonetheless.
Propsperi sounds pretty self ish. He ignores his family to train to risk his life. Then goes back because “I always finish my races’.” That isn’t impressive, it’s selfish and self absorbed. Ugh
"We had no idea where water was"
The other kid said the Colorado River was visible..... Sounds like they were trying to make this sound more dangerous than it actually was
Just cause something is visible doesn’t mean it’s obtainable.
I have a question about Clair’s story. I’m glad she made it, but what happened to the kitties she was watching?
That question always worries me but she wasn’t out for that long and I am sure she told her rescuers about the cat and the need to get someone back there. Cats will do fine for a few days even without food and they will drink out of the toilet.
.
25 miles, I'd walk back to town. It takes 2 days at most if you don't get lost.
