      A wise person once said: "I hate others because they remind me of what I hate about myself." It's not that the person who is hated deserves it, but rather, the hater's insecurities produce self-loathing which they then project upon others. Their thought processes are erroneous. Be well.

    "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - T Roosevelt

    People who are unkind are generally very unhappy, suffering or in some kind of pain and they use their online anonymity to vent their anger. It's not really personal, even when they target specific individuals. Cold comfort, I know. But the problem is on their end. I love these videos. None of my friends are really outdoorsy and I don't enjoy camping alone so I give mad props to those that do. You inspire me, even though I rarely spend a night outdoors, alone or with company.

People on here that don't even know me and call me every name in/out of the book I reply with kind word's and write back and thank them God bless you have a nice day. I hurt them with kind word's. I did get caught up writing mean words back, I figure that's exactly what they want me to do. I fell better when I reply with kind word's so it makes me feel good because I know they would not tell that to me in person.

      minustwelve as far as camping alone I don't blame you it's can be dangerous for anyone camping backpacking alone. I've camped alone I have to tell you at night it can be pretty creepy alone I used to live in Northern California and camped stealthy overnight because of the long drive and wanted to make my own camp out so it's pretty risky for a young man at the time in the back of my truck I had a lock box in it was a sleeping bag tent my cooking set and spare clothes for random camping even if I had to pass out in family's back yard for the night hee hee lol. For a women I wouldn't recommend her to camp alone beside it's no fun. Have a great 4th of July 🇺🇸✌

It all comes down to respect and keeping your negative thoughts to yourself, those who don't understand usually have much to say especially unwarranted stuff and only the humble truly have been there and understand. Great advice in what you say here Brooke, thank you for opening up to us and telling us like it is.

    People with the negativity that you mention usually have serious doubts about their own value or self-worth. There are those who have psychological problems such as personality disorders. Basically, when a total stranger speaks out in mean and hurtful ways, it is a strong indicator of their own personal pain. They may or may not even be aware of it. What is sad is that they are sad, unhappy people. They have my pity rather than anger (most of the time.) I too, have many flaws. If I'm OK with myself, just the way I am, then I have no reason to hate others. Good message.

I found that MS doesn't exist! Please just take ten minutes to listen, please! Look up phenol on CDC first. Now look up Hitler and phenol on wikipedia. It's just a nerve blocker that will go away. Someone gave her phenol! Just get her records, Msds and lab results from the doctors she seen in the past. They claim its a preservative so it's in majority of everything!!! Example diseases it causes Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, dementia, diabetes, lupus, high blood pressure, stroke, heart attack, thick toenails, lymphoma, blindness, anorexia, depression, dehydration, suicidal thoughts, thoughts of killing people, PMS, schizophrenia, extreme fatigue extreme, addictive, autism, ADHD, impotence, eczema, renal failure, anorexia and more! Causes 95 to 97% of all auto immune disease's! I'm almost 100%. This is how dogs get diabetes hip problems and other. They just change the name for profit! This is a substance that was found in 1832!!! Under different names in majority of everything food,soap, cologne, toothpaste, mouthwash, ink etc.... In a popular diet pill hyaluric acid I believe that's how you spell it. Causes anorexia. Nothing is hereditary! We all have been lied to! Please look! Jesus Walks

    I'm not normally this harsh on any online forum but opinions are like assholes, Everyone has one. I don't know why people have to act like this when they can hide behind a keyboard but they do, and I often find their opinion really doesn't matter. It's nice to hear you maintain your positive attitude despite nay-sayers and jealous people.
    Keep up the good work and I'll keep enjoying your videos.

    Some people bitch, moan, point fingers, and generally put other people down to elevate themselves. They know what is best for everyone else, but not themselves. They make excuses for their failures. Ignore them because they will not admit their shortcomings, thus will not change. Hacking on someone with MS is terrible. Shun these people.

    Brooke this video actually made me cry. We all know the people who judge and comment negative things I call them the energy vampires they try to drain your energy. But you made me realize which I thought they're very unhappy people but there's a reason for that we don't know what they go through. My husband is bipolar and has a lot to deal with and sometimes his negativity can't get to me and I try to be understanding and I try not to let it bring me down but it's hard and have my family I only have one brother that is understanding of that. The world does need more love and we do need to bring Grace to ourselves and to other people.

    I am relatively new to the scene on CZcams and FB and already see the hatred and disrespect that people try to use to take you down or challenge your skills as if they are more experienced and knowledgeable but even worse are the couch potatoes hiding behind the internet keyboard. I can't even begin to know the surface of you and other survivors that face the criticism because of your world-wide recognition. It does put an edge on you but then there's the goodness of people that shine over it all that appreciate your contributions with kindness and support.

I forgot that I'm not yet a subscriber of your channel, but I am now. This is my little gesture of love to you and my stand against haters. Haters will always be haters. I know it's hard to ignore them but we cannot please everyone. In your closing remarks: "Don't forget to go outside and be HAPPY."

    Some 'wannabes' think starving for one chance at $500,000 is an easy gig. They don't appreciate the costs in gaining knowledge and experience that go into the competition. Negative commenters wonder why Alone doesn't get 'real' survivors for the show. EXCUSE ME?? This season has participants who have been surviving in the woods as teachers or hobbyists since before their initial Alone Seasons. I just watched a video where one critic (a woodcraft/naturecraft guy) undertook a ten-day wild food 'survival challenge' that involved a canoe, a rowboat, a couple of visits home to bag a backyard bunny with a firearm, and help from a professional trapper to harvest beaver they knew were there. How is that like the challenge faced by the young man who was dropped on a stretch of river 'where the fish don't swim?' Perhaps I digress: trolls are not moved by facts...just by their own feelings and needs.

    My only criticism is for the show itself. I mean for those like Carleigh. If they could just get her the medical attention she needed without giving her any food, then let her go back! I think it's more than fair to send people on home when they want to go because they're missing their family, or when they're starving or whatever. I just think it's unfair when they have to go home for something that can be taken care of medically within a day or two. Kudos to everyone involved because I definitely could never attempt something so brave.

    I totally agree with this Brooke.

I refound civilization 12 hours later....thank gosh. I can totally relate to ALL of you out in the wild, even though in many cases, it was by your own choosing. I am learning a lot about how to survive, both in the wilderness, and in the "real world" as some of us call it. The "real world" is out in the wilderness. Bless you Brooke and your fellow friends.

It is one thing to participate with armchair advice and angles...it is called being engaged....it is entirely another to spew hateful, mindless and cold garbage. It is funny that you address this issue today as I just showed my daughter an episode of Alone an hour ago and told her, "this lady (you) is a beast....she is awesome." I have raised my daughter to love the outdoors. She is an awesome huntress and fly fisherman. She was immediately drawn in to the series and was so impressed with you. Keep on keeping on.

    Nicole has nothing to prove to anyone season 2 says it all. She is an over comer. Just to attempt this again is very brave. I'm 54 and I KNOW I would not last more than a couple weeks if I was in best possible shape and training. If I made it 7 days it's celebration time baby! I could not win this competition though. I don't think the keyboard commandos realize the SUCK you would be in after just a few short days out there. I was excited to see Jesse make some good kills on the hunt. If he can continue this and hold up he will do well. Finding and securing the game is key but difficult as Brad realized. Good luck to the other remaining 6 because Girl will be tough to beat ;-)

      some could do better with their eyes shut, too, if they have a bit of blubber. All that's required is get the tarp up, get a water source, get the sleeping bag under the tarp, crawl into it, and only come out for more water and to eliminate wastes. Just by knowing that much, you can last for 60 days, which would have beaten all but 10 out of 40 so far and doubtless will suffice to beat about 5 more this season.

    Brooke, I’m really sorry about hearing that you’re getting hateful comments, although, I’ve only noticed & seen more positive, kind, and sweet comments towards you than negative. Unfortunately, everybody gets judged, critiqued, and haters-even if it’s the nicest most kindest-humblest person in the World like You!-whom I look-up to and love & adore you for who you are!😍 I also see so many people adore you for who you are as a person too, and that’s what matters most-is the fact that you are so kind, humble, loving, and overall such a wonderful person that I, along with so many others look-up to and aspire to be!-That definitely outweighs any negativity. What you said was absolutely brilliant, true, and well said; that nobody knows your whole story or the whole picture of how you live, therefore, their opinions don’t define you! People assume, yet so little know. Just know that you are blessed, you are loved, I support you, and you have so many people that feel the same way as we look-up to you. Ignore the haters, they don’t define you or know you. I, along with so many others just adore you and we’re here for you!😍Keep-up the great aspiring videos of your adventures. God Bless my friend.🙏💙🙏

Just recently I happened upon your You tube channel. I didn't realize at first you were Brooke from Alone but was just taken with your adventures. Love, love watching and learning various skills and ideas from you for camping. As a believer it is refreshing to see someone be thankful and bold enough to pray on camera before their meal. Stay safe and keep spreading Grace. It is much needed everywhere we are.
