Survivorman – Les Stroud

african175.jpg

This guy is the TRUTH.  Survivor Man, also known as Les Stroud is successfully surviving the world with “no food, no shelter, no fresh water, no tools…no camera, no crew. One man alone in the wild for seven days with only his wits and stamina to sustain him”.

    i have been in the wild for 45 days and no way to get out but my feet and 70 lb of gear and a rifle. so i know what i am talking about..les is a moron Derek

    you learn from your mistakes, like Les has and does.
    when you get the guts to go out in the wilderness for a week, and carry around 50 pounds of camera gear, then you can critisize him.

    outdoors gal. seems to me your not to bright to think old les is ok. eating 5 bugs and a scorpion in 7 days is survival, go out in the wilderness with me and iam sure to not burn down my shelter,or lose my knife before i start my trek into the jungle,like les stroud did. lol Derek

    So you guys are rude and obviously know nothing. its not the point of being comfortable and “lazy”. its the point to get yourself warm, get your protien and fatty acids and just stay alive.

    when you are out in the woods like that (and trust me i’v been in his situations befor) you half to plan ahead, take in your surroundings and stay calm.
    Les Stroud knows that if he wastes too much energy trying to build a hut and attemp to get a moose for food, then you are not going to have the energy to get out alive….Sometimes you need to realize that its not the technology that people use that gets them out, its the knoweldge and instincts.
    Les is a respected man and has had alot of experience so you guys should smarten up.

    Absolutely derek! he’s a total buffoon, I find watching him is very similar to watching my dad try D.I.Y. its mainly the hoplessly confused expression on his face when it all goes wrong and he has no idea why, but its also the way he does rediculous things that you can tell are going to go wrong, like set up a camp fire inside your 2ft high wooden shelter.

    Surviving for 7 days of rotten fish that a bear has rejected, and kelp, is not good survival skills, if ray meirs was put in the same situation he’d have himself a lazyboy and a 4 poster bed made of bamboo and leaves, and enough food to keep him just a little on the tubby side.

    I love this guy, too. We catch his shows every once in awhile, and I can’t help but notice … he’s really good at finding excuses to get totally naked. Even in horrendous weather. :D Makes everything just a little more entertaining.
