    I used to fall asleep with this show playing on my small, cable bedroom tv late at night during my early highschool days. Les' narrating, the nature sounds, the background music, so calming late at night in a dark room with just the flickering light of the tv

      Same! I had one of the old classic iPods that I had Mythbusters and Survivorman on and I'd just alternate between the two. I've still got a couple little phrases that I took from there.

    Les I just wanted to say thanks again for the awesome presentation in Calgary last weekend and thanks for taking the time to shake my hand and allowing me to meet a man that I’ve looked up to for so long, you are a very down to earth and amazing individual. Keep up the good fight as well as these awesome directors commentaries.

    One of the things that I have always admired about Les Stroud has been the candid way he shows his methods, and his failures. He's always been the real deal and set the standard for all of the others in the survival genre.

    • @wat5713
      @wat5713 Před 2 měsíci

      @@just_another_WFRBro he made these shows to get people interested in survival and learn a thing or two. His show would have never taken off or gotten the green light from discovery channel if it was dry, boring, only 100% informational viewing. It has to be filmed well, edited well, scored well, narrated well, and has to have the element of learning survival skills and life skills into order to captivate the audience. Let's see you do that.

    • @samme79
      @samme79 Před 2 měsíci

      @@wat5713Nahhh he's right. Les is a good survivalist and show maker but if you want to LEARN survival, I'd argue you can actually learn more from Bear Grylls considering that he does way more stuff to teach people while Les is doing more of a documentary style with SOME survival tips and tricks. Hell you can learn more from Dual Survival also. Man vs Wild and Dual Survival aren't "real survival" like what Les does, but they offer more in terms of teaching people survival skills. Sometimes (like the Kalahari jungle episode) Les just waits for 5 days for his crew to pick him up while he does bare minimum to "survive". His director's commentary is really good though

    I don’t know if you’ll see this les but I just wanted to say that you changed my life. Watching you go from survivorman to the wandering shaman did something to me. You truly are the wandering shaman! Your like a super hero! A real life adventure saga come to life. I don’t think there’s ever been another human to be a Zulu warrior, an Incan warrior, blessed by tribal leaders from all over the world etc. Your titles must be many! Thank you so much for all your teachings….it’s nice to have masters as teachers (even tho we many never meet, I thank you for being a part of my reality and for everything you do)

    I think a charity auction is a great idea. The many fans out there would love a Les Stroud survival pack. With such a wide group of dedicated fans, somebody would love to own a piece from one of your journeys.
    There is nothing more authentic than Les and his gear.
    * I love Les Stroud, but why hasn't he been offered the Order of Canada. He deserves our accolades and honour. I can't think of a more authentic, humble, famous person. Nor a better representative of our great, yet humble country of Canada.

    I've seen a lot of people offer sponsored content, I love when you explain the quality of these Director Commentary CZcams videos are of professional quality that you easily could've syndicated through the Discovery channel...
    And when you explain how much you respect your exceptional editor who's getting a cut for his work... So that when you politely air a few commercials during an hour and twenty minute film like this...
    And... well, other CZcamsrs that are as heartfelt honest as you will explain the money's too good to turn down, so they ask their viewers to tolerate them sponsoring products because it keeps their lights on.
    You explain so many situations where you made shrewd decisions based 100% on your moral's... how the b-side TV film industry was in shock that you weren't avarice centric...
    Like you learned early on they were expecting they could control you and make you compromise your values... But you're like I"m not a film student doing what you expect...
    Your Wild Harvest ad, or your branded merch commercials... you gotta understand it's only annoying you don't mix it up when playing the same rerun, but it's so refreshing you're not sponsoring products from companies you don't believe in just because they paid you more...
    And you advocate other people's products when it's obvious you're not being paid to do so... LoL you're such an anomoly.
    Have you thought about leaning into that... if you made an hour long video, just out of love of other supply companies product's and people?
    I can't name other famous people encouraging you to get families off the grid for 10 fricking minutes to experience nature... My family was huge into Scouting, hiking, sailing, exploring, and whatnot... and when I taught it in school I was shocked to learn many of my fifth grade students had never gone fishing, or they were homesick because they literally never had spent a night outside of their bed at home before they came to our camp with their gradeschool class.
    I just thought you're so uniquely inscrutable about Environmental Education, and their academic field is going to be on life support in a century... maybe when you endorse products it could also be to encourage people to love and experience nature (making more people more likely to want to preserve it.)

Not sure when this originally aired about the trail was not well known apart by farmers until about 6 years about.
