50 years on and I am finally starting the journey to fulfil my childhood dream of living in the woods that was inspired by this movie and series... never give up on a dream...
Boy you said it! I'm 53 now and wow does this show take me back when I was a kid. Coming from an abusive household all I wanted to do was to run away and be free. Couple more years and I'll be retired and living my dream as well. Happy trails my friend and thank you!
I grew up in the eighties and I remember watching Grizzly Adams quite frequently. Such an innocent TV show. Wish there was TV shows like this now days.
My best friend and I spit on our hands and put our hands together, so we were "spit sisters" because we were to scared to cut ourselves to be blood sisters! Lol I loved this TV show as a kid so much, but I never even knew it was from a movie until now! Xoxoxo
So You are 30ish?? You are a Generation Z..and I do feel a sense of loss that yours and the generations after you are left with..I remember a time that society wasn't being closely monitored and a time where everyone felt a true sense of FREEDOM to do whatever it is... and there wasn't the furthest thought of someone keeping track of you..and you just had the room and privacy to stretch out...and the sad thing is it will only get worse...not better...less privacy next year than this year
@@Jsgro69 Not really. Though many people couldnt fathom it these days, you can turn off your phone and computer and spend days and days at a time doing whatever comes to mind and feel what you described. You live in the cage you make. Seriously....
Tears in my eyes remembering this show. I think we all dream of escaping and getting the hell out of this crazy society and living on our own. Doesn't sound so bad
Doesn’t matter what you do these days or how tough you are still going to cost money I have a dog so I have to make sure he’s fed. I can go whole week without food or water. He hast to have shit every day what I’m trying to say everything cost money, nothing is for free
Wish I could go back in time about 40 years and set next to my dad again while watching this show and tell him how one day when I was grown I was going to live in the mountains and wilderness. He knew it and I dreamed of it. Now I'm 51 and living in the mountains and wilderness and missing the best dad and best friend I ever knew.
You know, I was raised in the country in the backwoods of Kentucky. I was raised to believe that a real man doesn't show emotions but, I don't care anymore, I am drunk and have a lot of pain that I hide . I watched the movie and TV shows with my Mom and Dad. I love them still. My Mom passed away in 2008 in a car accident and then my Dad also passed away in a car accident in 2012 on the same road just a few miles away from where my Mom did. I love these movies and TV shows and yet they bring back memories when we all watched them together. I love watching them but yet it also brings tears again as they bring back happy memories. So yes I am emotional 😭. So attack me if you want, I don't care but it's just mixed emotions. What I wouldn't give to go back to those good times but I can't. But if I watch this and cry, I just can't help but think back of the memories and the pain of family being gone. I know as a man I shouldn't show emotions but I can't help it. I do miss everything about my great child hood and growing up with my loving parents. And I got to meet Dan Haggerty once and hugged him. I was only 10 but he wasn't any different than he was in the shows and movies. He wasn't snobby like other actors. He was truly a great man. And yes I did have a tearful moment when he passed away too.
Nothing wrong with showing emotions my friend. I was raised in southeastern Kentucky myself. Loved this show. Life was so much simpler then, for an 8 year old boy.
Nice to meet someone (yeah,it`s on the youtube comments,but never mind) with healthy feelings...I`m from Serbia,man,a little country in south part of Europe,and I feel the same,and I`m only 35...anyway,don`t care much about numbers...love quality more...that time of Mrs Adams,and way of living was so beautiful,considering the reasons for him to leave home,but,again,beautiful,because of his bond with the nature...I miss that in my life so much man...fucking people and their fucking cities and tech achievements...pardon me...I`m going to cry now,and smoke something that i think that natives was smoking...peace
It is important to feel your emotions, and to express them. If you don't, it bottles up and corrodes your insides. At a cool moment, cry and let it all out. You will feel so much better if you do. It's all healthy and natural. Don't listen to people who tell you to keep it all in, to keep it hidden. That is unhealthy.
I took a trip recently to the locations where the movies and TV shows were filmed. It's still as beautiful now as it was then. Was an emotional trip. It brought back the happiest of times from my childhood . I honestly couldn't hold the tears of happiness back. Had to travel 1000s of miles but worth every moment.
Did you stand on the "take me home" MOUNTAIN?! The final shot of the opening narration from the show? The helicopter shot that shows Adam's, Ben and the BEAUTIFUL valley in the background? If so............ WHAT MOUNTAIN IS THAT?! I have wanted to stand in that spot for 46 YEARS!!!
What morals? The character is a fugitive from justice who abandoned his daughter to live a hippy-dippy lifestyle running around the woods harassing the wildlife - sheesh! Let's not lose sight of the fact that Dan Haggery was a cocaine dealer and once set himself on fire once while drunk off his arse - LOL :)
Everyone did use to live like this, but the majority agrees we rather build cities, towns, collective farms. This makes living and surviving more achievable and this natural progression is what humans end up desiring with countless examples all over the world....soy point is If everyone reverted back to this way of living, that would destroy th earth faster and quicker than anything
This movie is a favorite part of my childhood, as well as the TV series. I used to watch his adventures and live through him, in the same woods he was, next to the animals he loved. I grew up with a huge respect of nature and an enormous love for it, thanks to this show. I dream of a simple, similar life next to nature and hope that perhaps someday I'll be able to live it. In the meantime, I remember Dan Haggerty as the wonderful actor he was and my childhood hero! Thank you so much for this!
Your childhood hero, Dan haggerty, had a horrific cocaine addiction. I am old enough to remember when this was on television, and the tabloids would report about it.
Throughout my comment my admiration was towards the TV character, I pointed that out. For Dan Haggerty himself, I expressed my admiration towards him as an actor. To me that's who he was, a wonderful actor. He was my childhood hero as Grizzly Adams. I'm sorry I have to explain that, in my eyes my comment was pretty straight forward. As for his cocaine addiction, I would never despise a person because of something like that, I don't look down on peoples' weaknesses, I sympathize and hope they find the strength to overcome any such difficulties. @@richardbullwood5941
Watching Grizzly Adams as a boy is one of my favorite memories. So glad to have found this movie after so many years. And to hear that song again. Take me home.
I loved this show in the 70s and love it now, I bought the entire series on dvd and watched it again with each of my kids when they were tiny. I love the scenery and the music. Always have. R I P Grizzly Adams!
Always loved Dan Haggerty in these Mountain/Grizzly series. He seems so natural portraying the character role and makes them so realistic. Miss those days.
Any other grown men out there who cried their eyes out watching this? I grew up watching Grizzly Adams with my dad on the couch . He had a beard like Grizzly Adams too. This reminds me of the summers we spent camping in Yosemite or King's Canyon. I really love Nacoma, his blood brother. Also when his daughter found him in the mountains after all those years and he wouldn't come home with her. As the song says, "Maybe there's a world where we won't have to run. Maybe there's a time we'll call our own, living free in harmony and majesty, take me home. Take me home. The time finally came, and it makes me sad that he wouldn't let his daughter "Take him home". But he the mountains had become his home, and he shall stay there forever.
The beginning of the film reminded me of my childhood.I remembered the day my father left me and my mother. We had nothing to eat and no money. I asked my mom where my dad was going, and she said he left us. He never turned around to look at me as he left. I really wanted him to turn around and look at me. I really wanted him to smile at me. It's a terrible thing to be unwanted and abandoned. I felt so worthless.Years later, I found my father. I was never hostile to him.I never hated him. I'm sure he had his own reasons at the time.
Classic movies like this are almost impossible to make today . The timing for this movie was perfect .The 70's produced some of the greatest movies ever . This was one of those movies .
I was 5 years old when this came out. I remember waiting in line at the movie theater with my sister and both my parents to get in. It was my first movie at a theater. Time has changed so much since then.
i was born 1973, grew up with Grizzly Adams, bonanza and a lot of these shows. Miss them all so much. Wish they would have a channel on tv for all these old shows. It would make a lot of us oldies very happy.😍
The 70s as a kid were a special time. I remember watching this pilot movie to the TV series in Elementary in 1979. I loved this show so much. The mountain terrain in the show reminded me of my own back yard in Utah. The main theme song by Thom Pace brings tears to my eyes and makes me want to go hiking in the mountains again.
i knew Dan... met him during a bikeweek here in florida. his bike broke down , i should say his sons bike . his was at home broke ..lol a customer of mine told him i lived close an they brought it here to be fixed... he was a hands on guy an so we both worked on it togeather... we exchanged numbers an a few weeks later he called wanting to know if i wanted to build a bike for him...this was not long before his death so it never got built but ... what a cool guy... he was friends with robbie kinevil so i got to know them both...now there both gone.
Brings back great memories of my childhood. The TV series was my favorite show. I still remember that it was on Wednesday nights. I actually had a tear rolling down my cheek at the end. I love the song that ended every episode. Wow, life has gone by so fast!!
I loved this show as a child as well my mother.In 2018 I lost my beautiful mom of cancer but I had all dvds of grizzly Adams and we watched the episodes once again we loved it as she passed she was at peace and so was I .
Growing up in a smaĺl country Australian town, I watched Grizzly Adams. Dan Haggerty & his lifestyle were my ideal. Now, at almost 70, I rely on memories of happier days. Thank you for uploading.
Growing up in the 1970’s I couldn’t wait to see this show. It was entertaining and I especially enjoyed watching the wild animals coming to John Grizzly Adams and be so gentle and playful. Ben the 🐻 was a gentle giant. I know they were trained to perform in that manner. The animal trainer and everyone from the cast were great. I’m glad Utube uploaded these episodes again.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart whoever found this video and shared it I've been searching for it for at least a decade this was my favorite movie in the whole world growing up thank you again next best thing find escape from witch mountain
My Mum took me to see this movie as a child when we lived in America for 3 years. My first ever man crush. Live in Australia and love to camp and fish in the bush. It really gets you in tune with nature and yourself.
What a wonderful movie this was! It takes me back to my childhood watching the Grizzly Adams tv show. 🐻 Oh how I wish I could go back to that time! 😍💖💜
Thanks for posting. What a charming and peaceful memory from childhood where I would dream of being like Grizzly Adams living in the mountains at one with nature and the animals. Still think that is the purest life, with no internet, traffic or corruption.
I read a lot of the comments and I can relate. I remember lying in bed with my family watching Grizzly Adams and what always impressed me was how natural it all was and looked. It was just being in nature that always made me happy and that I want to get back to. What great memories! I watched these in the late 70's and I remember seeing the Indian character and thinking, WOW, that must be my people, LOL! I am actually South Indian like Mahatma Ghandi but from Brooklyn, so, yes I did fight! LOL! But so many lessons to learn from this show! Gotta love it!
My mom and I watched this, Little house, Mash, and Star Trek we were TV junkies LOL. My pop was gone lot business trips. My pop passed on in 94 but My mom is still with us and doing great we just talking about Grizzle Adams like it was yesterday.
Dan Haggerty, professional animal trainer, actor, bodybuilder and owner of one of the coolest beards around . . . God bless you, sir! This was such an important part of my youth in the 70s. Got all of these shows on DVD, as well as the entire Wilderness Family trilogy of movies and others.
@@russellboyd8776 The series I saw did not contain the movie. Complete TV series episodes but not this movie. Thanks. I’ll have to google it to see if thus one is on dvd 📀 or added to the box sets. Thanks Grew up on this.
Like Robert, I too grew up with Grizzly Adams. Out of all of the movies and programmes that cross our screens today, this is still my favourite. And always will be. Thanks for sharing this classic.
I wanted to live like him. I love all animals and when I saw this show as a child, I thought, "Yes!! Somebody other than me gets it!!" I think I was born 50 years too late!! I do live out in the country but it's not the same.
You can still live like him; just a little by the weekends, that's what I do. Last week a mama (black) bear with 3 cubs walked 50 feet away from me, a young deer came up to 5 feet from me, yesterday I saw a bobcat and a grey squirrel pooped on me, chipmunks are so tiny! All you have to do is go to the forest and stay still, the animals will get close to you; but remember that they are wild and can be dangerous. Nature is so fantastic and life is too short, get out there!
There wasn’t a time as a boy i got to watch this that it didnt cause a tear to roll down. Ill never forget the times of years past because of memories like these. Thanks for putting this up to see again.
I think we all took away something from this movie and tv show, I know I did. Respect for nature and the animals in it, just to name a couple. This is the movie I've been searching for for a long time. Found the pilot and everything else but this is the 1 my parents took us to the drive in to see. Loving memories of the good ole days. Thanks Dan and Denver RIP
It's now February 2023, and at 50 years of age, I still very much appreciate simple movies like this. I loved Grizzly Adam (Biker Dan Hagerty), I can't imagine what It'd be like to live now OFF GRID in the mountains with my friend and guard BEAR. I pray that one day I to, could live deep in the country in Texas, eating off the land and fishing. What a Blessing from The Lord that would be. I'm sick of the city, big government, politics, working for the man who cares nothing about me. And the division of people. I hope oneday to enjoy life in the country with a wonderful godly woman, have a simple home, garden, dogs, and live stock. 🙏🏼
ahhhh yessss!!!! 1976...omg i feel like cryin you guys! i was 6yrs old when this aired...i watched it with my mom she's gone now, but i can soo remeber this song, reminds me of her!!.... such good times back then. yea man! such good times.
When I first saw this movie I was 11yrs and now at the age of 60 I come to see it once more how the memories are racing through my head. one can see how old this movie is
I was a little boy when I first saw this movie on tv I love to hunt and fish,but I have a great respect for the animals I hunt and I don't like to waste any part of them.thanks for posting this movie.
Thankyou for uploading this Classic Movie I loved this and the tv show as well it brings back such great memories of better times RIP Dan Haggerty 1942 - 2016.😥👍💙
It's so beautiful. both the music's and the scenes. Remind me of one man that I know, who used to wandered alone. How I wish that I can be a part in his journey.. I just miss him too much.
I saw this at the local movie theatre when I was 6. I got the View-Master and watched the TV series as well. It was good to see this film again. If it were made today, the animals would talk.
Very beautiful serie I think it is this series that made me loved both nature and large space. I travel to Canada and live in Africa before returning to France and I never lost the idea that all animals deserved respect. we had certainly been lucky to live in those years.
God bless and yes these were the good ole innocent shows, I’d rather watch these reruns than the shows and movies of today?😢 100 times better off watching the good ole shows. Thank you.
Amazing you found the shows . What a great tv series . Thank you for bringing back a more simpler time in life and the wonderful memories that come with it .
In 2003 I met Dan Haggerty at my work in Orlando,Fl. .We remained friends till his passing.I drank many beers with Dan and ate many oysters as well.Dan was a good friend very kind and he loved to laugh.I sure miss my friend!!!
Can't believe it's been 44 yrs. I believe this show is what got me so naturistic. I own an RV but stuck in Alabama for now with my kiddos although they are older 18, and 20. Still feel I need to be near them but heading back to the woods of NC or TN soon
My dad and whole family loved this show this was one show the whole family could come in the living room together to sit down to watch together. And enjoy man I wisfamilyh I could go back to those times. How great they were I miss them... And my
This was lovely to watch again after almost 50 years, thank you! Nostalgic. I was surprised how high the the quality was, and the music etc. and thus still very watchable. We watched this in Holland too, maybe mixed with some Lassie and the little house on the prairie?
This is what heaven is. Untouched by developers and greedy politicians. The wilderness in its purest form. Spread love not war. We still have a chance to save the human race from self destruction 😔
Amazing stories. Watching it since was much younger. Nice remember this tv show series. Probably was my age 10 in 1974. On regular tv show. Was no cable box or internet at all. Let’s Bless Dan H. Up in heaven. Love these stories.
If Hollywood remade this classic movie. With the world the way it is today they would only mess it up. The Life and times of grizzly Adams is a timeless classic. Leave it the way it is. Perfect.
My sister and I both wanted to marry a Grizzly Adams when we grew up, but to our dismay, they just don't make enough real respectable men like him anymore! Thanks again for helping us reconnect with the happy days of our youth! 😉😁
Just like 50 years ago, I watch this thinking Damn, he brought a lot of rope and ammo with him. The song still makes me cry. I wish movies and TV shows were still this wholesome.
My wife loved this show. I grew up not having much TV in my life but I had read a book about the real Grizzly Adams. We are now homesteading in the Selkirk Mtns of SE Washington completely away from today's society. Not completely off grid but off the beaten path and walking in the footprints of this character.
Pinche Pendejo ...Our ancestors...the Founding Father's who authored the Bill of Rights and the Constitution we're not "stupid". They knew exactly what the pit-falls were. It is the majority of generation's leading to the current generation that are stupid.. and have forgotten what it is to be free. Get your facts straight and learn your history.
50 years later and the second the song "Take me Home" hits I remember the words and melody! Shows how much it touched me at 8 years old... Loved the film and the series so much!! We just got our very first black and white Phillips TV and this was the very first film we watched together as a family. I then decided I wanted to be a hermit, and I am now.
Thank you so much for uploading this treasure from my childhood. The mid-'70s seemed a time so full of great nature programs and frontier spirit. We had Grizzly, the Marty Stouffer films that ran into the eighties, Robert Logan films like "Across the Great Divide" and "Little House on the Prairie". Were these more innocent times? An escape from the crash down of the sixties and Watergate years? An extension of hippy back-to-earth ways? Was it just a trend like "Jeremiah Johnson" movies? There was something like Arcadia presented in the wilderness films of these years. I am grateful that it was part of my childhood, and in early elementary school I loved Dan Haggerty and was touched by the stories and themes in "Grizzly Adams".
i was 6 yrs old when this first aired my mom watched this with us this and little house on the prarie... if i could go back i would.... and i miss my mom every day the best mom a fella could have. im 55yrs old today
Awww man, I just love the ending music. I'm 58 & I remember watching this & loving the theme music so much my mum bought the record. I think she regretted it after the 567th play 😊
50 years on and I am finally starting the journey to fulfil my childhood dream of living in the woods that was inspired by this movie and series... never give up on a dream...
Wishing you the best my friend
It had a big impact on me too! I just love being out in the backcountry. I wish you a peaceful journey to whatever wilds you find.
Same here. I’ll be 44 next month, but finally starting to live the life I want to live.
Boy you said it! I'm 53 now and wow does this show take me back when I was a kid. Coming from an abusive household all I wanted to do was to run away and be free. Couple more years and I'll be retired and living my dream as well. Happy trails my friend and thank you!
your not alone! GOD Bless, and Love each day! I moved to the woods about 5 years ago too, never looking back either, don't miss any of it!
I grew up in the eighties and I remember watching Grizzly Adams quite frequently. Such an innocent TV show. Wish there was TV shows like this now days.
Except grizzly Adam's was a real man and there was nothing innocent about him.
@@phillipstroll7385 Was he guilty as accused?
As a 90s kid I agree with you

every sunday
Me too
While not at my grandparents, I remember watching this show. I have the same emotion seeing this.
My heart aches just hearing the opening
Treasure those wonderful memories Robert. Precious times.
Watching Grizzly Adams as a boy is one of my favorite memories. So glad to have found this movie after so many years. And to hear that song again. Take me home.

Also when his daughter found him in the mountains after all those years and he wouldn't come home with her. As the song says, "Maybe there's a world where we won't have to run. Maybe there's a time we'll call our own, living free in harmony and majesty, take me home. Take me home. The time finally came, and it makes me sad that he wouldn't let his daughter "Take him home". But he the mountains had become his home, and he shall stay there forever.
Well said, Sir.
This is more true today than ever. Big hugs.
She said they found the killer.
He chose to leave that cabin. Wth Why?
Plus where's his wife at?? Who raised his kid??
@@warmlantern0000
At the opening he said his daughter's aunt.
@@warmlantern0000his wife died of "fever" if memory serves her sister came and moved in to help raise the child.
The beginning of the film reminded me of my childhood.I remembered the day my father left me and my mother. We had nothing to eat and no money. I asked my mom where my dad was going, and she said he left us. He never turned around to look at me as he left. I really wanted him to turn around and look at me. I really wanted him to smile at me. It's a terrible thing to be unwanted and abandoned. I felt so worthless.Years later, I found my father. I was never hostile to him.I never hated him. I'm sure he had his own reasons at the time.
Sweet wonderful You! His loss.
His loss Family is the true riches of the world not gold or silver
😢
Me to.
I'm still heart broken
he must have been just as heart broken and did not want you to see him crying
he was a worthless bum
1 man. 1 wilderness.
1 with nature.
1 understanding.
1 True legend.
R. I. P Dan Haggerty. 🙏
How we live......
IS ALL OF IT💪⚖️💯😍🤩 HE DID A GOOD LIFE.. RIP DH🙏
Classic movies like this are almost impossible to make today . The timing for this movie was perfect .The 70's produced some of the greatest movies ever . This was one of those movies .
I was 5 years old when this came out. I remember waiting in line at the movie theater with my sister and both my parents to get in. It was my first movie at a theater. Time has changed so much since then.
Awwww,, rest in peace Dan Haggerty, you were a great kind actor. :'( I love this show. :)
i was born 1973, grew up with Grizzly Adams, bonanza and a lot of these shows. Miss them all so much. Wish they would have a channel on tv for all these old shows. It would make a lot of us oldies very happy.😍
The 70s as a kid were a special time. I remember watching this pilot movie to the TV series in Elementary in 1979. I loved this show so much. The mountain terrain in the show reminded me of my own back yard in Utah. The main theme song by Thom Pace brings tears to my eyes and makes me want to go hiking in the mountains again.
49 year old both my parents just passed, we all watched this as a family good ol days. I havwnt seen it since i was a kid
So sorry for your loss.
Brings back memories, I loved this show when I was a little girl. He was the perfect person for the part.
i knew Dan... met him during a bikeweek here in florida. his bike broke down , i should say his sons bike . his was at home broke ..lol a customer of mine told him i lived close an they brought it here to be fixed... he was a hands on guy an so we both worked on it togeather... we exchanged numbers an a few weeks later he called wanting to know if i wanted to build a bike for him...this was not long before his death so it never got built but ... what a cool guy... he was friends with robbie kinevil so i got to know them both...now there both gone.
Brings back great memories of my childhood. The TV series was my favorite show. I still remember that it was on Wednesday nights. I actually had a tear rolling down my cheek at the end. I love the song that ended every episode. Wow, life has gone by so fast!!
I loved this show as a child as well my mother.In 2018 I lost my beautiful mom of cancer but I had all dvds of grizzly Adams and we watched the episodes once again we loved it as she passed she was at peace and so was I .
Growing up in a smaĺl country Australian town, I watched Grizzly Adams. Dan Haggerty & his lifestyle were my ideal. Now, at almost 70, I rely on memories of happier days. Thank you for uploading.
Growing up in the 1970’s I couldn’t wait to see this show. It was entertaining and I especially enjoyed watching the wild animals coming to John Grizzly Adams and be so gentle and playful. Ben the 🐻 was a gentle giant. I know they were trained to perform in that manner. The animal trainer and everyone from the cast were great. I’m glad Utube uploaded these episodes again.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart whoever found this video and shared it I've been searching for it for at least a decade this was my favorite movie in the whole world growing up thank you again next best thing find escape from witch mountain
My Mum took me to see this movie as a child when we lived in America for 3 years. My first ever man crush. Live in Australia and love to camp and fish in the bush. It really gets you in tune with nature and yourself.
What a wonderful movie this was! It takes me back to my childhood watching the Grizzly Adams tv show. 🐻 Oh how I wish I could go back to that time! 😍💖💜
Agreed,life seemed so much meaningful and innocent then.Peace be with you
Thanks for posting. What a charming and peaceful memory from childhood where I would dream of being like Grizzly Adams living in the mountains at one with nature and the animals. Still think that is the purest life, with no internet, traffic or corruption.
I watched this series as a kid back in the 1970s, still living back in Poland. Brings back so many good memories.
Omg , i grew up watching this. Times were so much better back then, would love to go back in time i would cherish those days
Me too georgenail100@gmail.com
Farewell, Sir. You were a huge part of my childhood.
I loved this show growing up and listening to John Denver and Dan Fogelberg🤗
I read a lot of the comments and I can relate. I remember lying in bed with my family watching Grizzly Adams and what always impressed me was how natural it all was and looked. It was just being in nature that always made me happy and that I want to get back to. What great memories! I watched these in the late 70's and I remember seeing the Indian character and thinking, WOW, that must be my people, LOL! I am actually South Indian like Mahatma Ghandi but from Brooklyn, so, yes I did fight! LOL! But so many lessons to learn from this show! Gotta love it!
My fondest TV memories as a small boy was Grizzly Adams and Little House on the Prairie.
My mom and I watched this, Little house, Mash, and Star Trek we were TV junkies LOL. My pop was gone lot business trips. My pop passed on in 94 but My mom is still with us and doing great we just talking about Grizzle Adams like it was yesterday.
Two Fine Shows That's For Sure! Light Years Better than the Garbage On TV Now!🙂🧔🐻🏞️

Same here the best childhood memories ever
@@Mike-01234 best childhood memories ever
Dan Haggerty, professional animal trainer, actor, bodybuilder and owner of one of the coolest beards around . . . God bless you, sir! This was such an important part of my youth in the 70s. Got all of these shows on DVD, as well as the entire Wilderness Family trilogy of movies and others.
This movie needs to be restored and released on dvd and blu-ray please!!!!!
It is. I bought the series a few years ago.
@@russellboyd8776 The series I saw did not contain the movie. Complete TV series episodes but not this movie.
Thanks.
I’ll have to google it to see if thus one is on dvd 📀 or added to the box sets. Thanks
Grew up on this.
@@russellboyd8776 I have the dvd of the series, but this movie is not there. I’ve done several searches for this movie and it’s no place.
ABSOLUTELY.
Like Robert, I too grew up with Grizzly Adams. Out of all of the movies and programmes that cross our screens today, this is still my favourite. And always will be. Thanks for sharing this classic.
I was 5 years old when this movie came out. It brings back such sweet memories to my heart! Love it still!
HOW old are you now?
@@mahmoodshirvani2011 im 54 :)
I wanted to live like him. I love all animals and when I saw this show as a child, I thought, "Yes!! Somebody other than me gets it!!" I think I was born 50 years too late!! I do live out in the country but it's not the same.
Linda Lowe I wanted to live like grizzly Adams too.. .I still do.im goin to listen to this tonight as I'm working my dead end job.
Linda Lowe me too
Linda Lowe its same for me, I agree with you, that's why I live in the countryside and not the city 🇬🇧 and I love nature because of grizzly adams.
You can still live like him; just a little by the weekends, that's what I do.
Last week a mama (black) bear with 3 cubs walked 50 feet away from me, a young deer came up to 5 feet from me, yesterday I saw a bobcat and a grey squirrel pooped on me, chipmunks are so tiny!
All you have to do is go to the forest and stay still, the animals will get close to you; but remember that they are wild and can be dangerous.
Nature is so fantastic and life is too short, get out there!
Uncle Alf that's really cool sounds like you had a great time... I've been out watching falcons nesting 🇬🇧
There wasn’t a time as a boy i got to watch this that it didnt cause a tear to roll down. Ill never forget the times of years past because of memories like these. Thanks for putting this up to see again.
I think we all took away something from this movie and tv show, I know I did.
Respect for nature and the animals in it, just to name a couple.
This is the movie I've been searching for for a long time. Found the pilot and everything else but this is the 1 my parents took us to the drive in to see.
Loving memories of the good ole days.
Thanks Dan and Denver
RIP
A Sacred Memory of our youth, Most Inspirational and Sentimental! God Bless Your Generosity for Sharing This!
It's now February 2023, and at 50 years of age, I still very much appreciate simple movies like this.
I loved Grizzly Adam (Biker Dan Hagerty), I can't imagine what It'd be like to live now OFF GRID in the mountains with my friend and guard BEAR.
I pray that one day I to, could live deep in the country in Texas, eating off the land and fishing. What a Blessing from The Lord that would be.
I'm sick of the city, big government, politics, working for the man who cares nothing about me. And the division of people.
I hope oneday to enjoy life in the country with a wonderful godly woman, have a simple home, garden, dogs, and live stock. 🙏🏼
ahhhh yessss!!!! 1976...omg i feel like cryin you guys!
i was 6yrs old when this aired...i watched it with my mom
she's gone now,
but i can soo remeber this song, reminds me of her!!....
such good times back then.
yea man!
such good times.
Growing up in the 70s', being a teenager in the 80s'...kids today have no idea what they are missing. Sorry about your mom.
This reminds so much of my childhood, born in 70, and how much I miss that time, I felt myself sobbing again and again.
Thank you for giving me to watch again this wonderful show. Now I could watch it on my small television @ Android.
Thank You for this beautiful movie, the days of nice television. 📺📺📺
Every day after school in the 1970s, I could hardly wait to get off the school bus and run into the den to watch Grizzly Adams!
Me to!!!
Thank you so much for the download of Grizzly Adams. Many memories seems like yesterday hold onto your memories God bless stay safe
When I first saw this movie I was 11yrs and now at the age of 60 I come to see it once more how the memories are racing through my head. one can see how old this movie is
I was a little boy when I first saw this movie on tv I love to hunt and fish,but I have a great respect for the animals I hunt and I don't like to waste any part of them.thanks for posting this movie.
I grew up watching this. Now my kids are doing the same.Great! Greetings from Croatia
Thankyou for uploading this Classic Movie I loved this and the tv show as well it brings back such great memories of better times RIP Dan Haggerty 1942 - 2016.😥👍💙
I used to watch this as a child, wow has the world really changed, seems like humanity is devolving.
It's so beautiful. both the music's and the scenes.
Remind me of one man that I know, who used to wandered alone.
How I wish that I can be a part in his journey..
I just miss him too much.
One of my favorite shows. Thanks for reminding me. 💓💖❤💕
I saw this at the local movie theatre when I was 6. I got the View-Master and watched the TV series as well. It was good to see this film again. If it were made today, the animals would talk.
Yet, the off-voice speaks a little bit too much…
This movie inspired me and so many more before and after, Liberty and freedom forever more.
This was my favourite show when I was a kid. Well, this and BJ and The Bear!
I absolutely loved BJ and the Bear as a kid!
First time watching this 8/9/2023 and this is obviously a classic I'm surprised I haven't seen.
Very beautiful serie I think it is this series that made me loved both nature and large space. I travel to Canada and live in Africa before returning to France and I never lost the idea that all animals deserved respect. we had certainly been lucky to live in those years.
God bless and yes these were the good ole innocent shows, I’d rather watch these reruns than the shows and movies of today?😢 100 times better off watching the good ole shows. Thank you.
How I wish This Movie would be Released on DVD/Blu-ray....Thanks for Posting!
Amazing you found the shows . What a great tv series . Thank you for bringing back a more simpler time in life and the wonderful memories that come with it .
I am 70 now but still enjoy those old. Movies
Such a beautiful movie !!! Thank you !!❤️❤️❤️❤️🇵🇹🌸
In 2003 I met Dan Haggerty at my work in Orlando,Fl. .We remained friends till his passing.I drank many beers with Dan and ate many oysters as well.Dan was a good friend very kind and he loved to laugh.I sure miss my friend!!!
They need to put reruns of this show back on TV

Looks like all the uploaded shows by Charles Ambercup were deleted. Anyone else confirm this.
This is one of the best movies i ever watched omg the best
Was teenager 12 yrs old when I first saw this and loved watching Grizzly Adams ever since . Love wildlife films . Thankyou very much 😁💖👌👨✝🆗
Can't believe it's been 44 yrs. I believe this show is what got me so naturistic. I own an RV but stuck in Alabama for now with my kiddos although they are older 18, and 20. Still feel I need to be near them but heading back to the woods of NC or TN soon
Thank you for posting this movie
My dad and whole family loved this show this was one show the whole family could come in the living room together to sit down to watch together. And enjoy man I wisfamilyh I could go back to those times. How great they were I miss them... And my
Wow!! That really brought some memories back, I loved this program when I was young, Thank you for posting it. Peter, Hampshire UK 🇬🇧
It's like yesterday, it's been 40 years since I watched it. Greetings from Turkey.
This was lovely to watch again after almost 50 years, thank you! Nostalgic. I was surprised how high the the quality was, and the music etc. and thus still very watchable. We watched this in Holland too, maybe mixed with some Lassie and the little house on the prairie?
❤❤❤ 💯👍
Just beautiful. There is nothing like that today.
This is what heaven is. Untouched by developers and greedy politicians. The wilderness in its purest form. Spread love not war. We still have a chance to save the human race from self destruction 😔
Amazing stories. Watching it since was much younger. Nice remember this tv show series. Probably was my age 10 in 1974. On regular tv show. Was no cable box or internet at all. Let’s Bless Dan H. Up in heaven. Love these stories.
I used to watch this when I was a kid and loved it. Hollywood should make a new movie with this premise.
If Hollywood remade this classic movie. With the world the way it is today they would only mess it up. The Life and times of grizzly Adams is a timeless classic. Leave it the way it is. Perfect.
I got so teary eyed.. thankyou for this memory
I saw this in the movie theater when I was a child. 7 years old. I’m 56 now. Never stopped loving nature since this movie ❤. Thanks for sharing
My childhood remembers this. So happy to find it again. Thank you so much! 😘😘
My sister and I both wanted to marry a Grizzly Adams when we grew up, but to our dismay, they just don't make enough real respectable men like him anymore! Thanks again for helping us reconnect with the happy days of our youth! 😉😁
Just like 50 years ago, I watch this thinking Damn, he brought a lot of rope and ammo with him. The song still makes me cry. I wish movies and TV shows were still this wholesome.
This is one of if not my favorite movie of all time
Absolutely Brilliant Take's Me Back to a Better Time Love and Peace ✌️ be With You 😷
My wife loved this show. I grew up not having much TV in my life but I had read a book about the real Grizzly Adams. We are now homesteading in the Selkirk Mtns of SE Washington completely away from today's society. Not completely off grid but off the beaten path and walking in the footprints of this character.
Great childhood movie brought back good memories of growing up. Thanks for posting.
A man should be able to live like this if he wants, live or die, but it's freedom.
sspiderweb: Your idea can only be when technology is all manual & population is less than 3 billion & and most importantly, attorneys are curbed.
sspiderweb you are 100% right my friend
RIP Dan Haggerty. Fun fact : Dan also built the chopper used in " Easy Rider" movie.
Pinche Pendejo ...Our ancestors...the Founding Father's who authored the Bill of Rights and the Constitution we're not "stupid". They knew exactly what the pit-falls were. It is the majority of generation's leading to the current generation that are stupid.. and have forgotten what it is to be free. Get your facts straight and learn your history.
sspiderweb If you go to the Province of British Columbia, you can live like this if you so wish.
50 years later and the second the song "Take me Home" hits I remember the words and melody! Shows how much it touched me at 8 years old... Loved the film and the series so much!! We just got our very first black and white Phillips TV and this was the very first film we watched together as a family. I then decided I wanted to be a hermit, and I am now.
Thank you so much for uploading this treasure from my childhood. The mid-'70s seemed a time so full of great nature programs and frontier spirit. We had Grizzly, the Marty Stouffer films that ran into the eighties, Robert Logan films like "Across the Great Divide" and "Little House on the Prairie". Were these more innocent times? An escape from the crash down of the sixties and Watergate years? An extension of hippy back-to-earth ways? Was it just a trend like "Jeremiah Johnson" movies? There was something like Arcadia presented in the wilderness films of these years. I am grateful that it was part of my childhood, and in early elementary school I loved Dan Haggerty and was touched by the stories and themes in "Grizzly Adams".
i was 6 yrs old when this first aired
my mom watched this with us
this and little house on the prarie...
if i could go back i would....
and i miss my mom every day
the best mom a fella could have.
im 55yrs old today
Grew up watching this,i think it is why i love nature today.
Yep...grew up watching this show.
amy I did too oh the good old-days!!!
Loved this show at 9, wish those times were still here. Lot of good memories.
I really loved this show,why am I crying
Awww man, I just love the ending music. I'm 58 & I remember watching this & loving the theme music so much my mum bought the record. I think she regretted it after the 567th play 😊
This movie is simply beautiful 💙
