This Snake Island is obviously not Snake island Brazil. This Snake Island is located in Ontario Canada.

I’m eating tuna and crackers during the snake snack scene for that full immersion
dude lol!!!
cool ranch doritos and beer for me ;)
thats fucked was eating crackers and tuna whilst reading this comment
Wow you guy can eat the snake.
He has places to be and people to kill...
Bro paddled away so far just to get that shot leaving the island...dedication right there
He has a drone but I’m pretty sure that’s the truth what you say.
That would explain paddling for 2 hours ;)
I think it looks like more effort than it really is.
no no i dont use the drone for this
"Ah shit, my camera!"
He’s literally teaching us the basics, something I wish we were taught in school. He makes me want to go out and try this
Then go out and try this. Its very relaxing
@@vallexd5923I will, But I’d like to go with someone first. Than with experience I’d go by myself. I want to feel more connected, see the stars and enjoy the moment. My everyday life is filled with distractions
Not being a dick but school is to help you get jobs, in an interview for a job saying I can start a fire with sticks and paddle a canoe won’t get you too far
@@plaggythekingyt4443 meh, I’ve learned how to do that mostly on my own, learning from experience. But school had electives, also had pointless classes, im just saying it be cool if a survival class was a option.
@@mulari8344 yeah true, I suppose physical education is a lesson so it’d be good if they tied in bushcraft with it
Im currently going through a breakup and this content is fantastic for calming me and distracting me. Also gives me hope that I can manage on my own because you're out in the wilderness thriving on your own.
My partner punished me because i make her upset and mad and this video helps a lot for me to avoid stupid things while waiting for my girl to be calm🙏
I've known you for a week and I can say that you are an inspiration to me. I have been locked up at home for many years with depression and with phobias of almost everything and seeing you in distant places spending the night you only motivate me to do the same even if I start by going to places not so remote. A greeting from Spain mate.
you got this bro!
💜💜
That’s awesome push yourself and you won’t regret it you’ll only grow ✊🏽♥️
Hola, Como Estas?
I hope you're doing good my dude! If you ever want to reach out feel free :) keep smashing it!
He's not alone, when the camera is on you don't feel alone, you feel the stare of a lot of people. 😅
I have a crippling anxiety disorder and can barely leave the house without panic attacks. I watch your videos remind myself why I'm going to therapy and it motivates me to work hard on getting back out there. I cant wait to finally be able to do this and not feel physically sick the whole time.
For so many years I used to suffer from anxiety. I also used to think something bad was going to happen when I would leave my house. You are going to be okay. Stay strong.
Keep working at it brother!!! slow and steady You've got this!
RIght on my, Respect!
You will get there my friend. God love you and bless you. 🙏
I had the same issue with depression. You’ll get there bud. It’s all going to be ok. Keep talking. 👍
This guy's a classic! Shows how camping really is. Canoe floats away, slips into water and overeating, with some comedy thrown in. Looking forward to more!
You're really helping keep me company during a more lonely time in my life. Thank you bud.
You have an Alien here to see you Mr. Visitor.
word
Bro I don’t even camp, I’m a city boy but you’ve enlightened me and implanted a whole new meaning and perspective of camping in my brain. The effort you put into these videos are insane. Thank you so much
He is very talented at what he is doing.
Very charming and peaceful.
Such a great soul.
He lives what nature has to give.
Btw also an excellent cook.
And he’s funny and goofy, these lighthearted and beautiful videos are very relaxing
Thank you for your words
@@XanderBudnick I’m also thankful for you
The quality of survival, cooking and filming is phenomenal! I am inspired to train for the outdoors to be able to do this one day and enjoy nature as you do!
You should watch back 2 basics
Xander brings prepacked foods from home, this hardly surviving 🥴
@@Vict0rHy he does both. ruclips.net/video/ZTd1XctdUds/видео.html actually. Just because he takes food does not me he is not surviving lol
The drone shots really add something special in emphasizing the grandeur and isolation of the area. So beautiful. And your meals seem amazingly easy to prepare for maximum enjoyment.
From 100,000 subs, now less than a year later you’re at almost 440k. That’s so cool.
It’s been so fun hyperfixating on your videos lately - they’re the perfect combo of engaging and relaxing - and it’s been super cool watching your back catalogue and seeing how much you’ve grown and changed within this art form and as a person. What hasn’t changed, though, is your dedication, authenticity, and your good heart. YOU are the real deal. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. 🙏🏻💕
It’s not surprising at all that this channel has grown so much in such a short period of time. It’s well deserved, you put a lot of time and effort into the channel and it really shows in the cinematography. You also pick beautiful places to visit and overall have a very relaxed style of commentary. Kudos!
Thanks my man!!! I appreciate that!
The Ant just being a savage crawling over the snakes head while he murders a fish 😂
I thought the same thing, haha "excuse me, just coming through, don't mind me"
Man, you have inspired me to plan a camping trip on my own. I have been doing outdoor adventures for more than 2 years already but never camped on my own. I am a bit scared of snakes and other wild animals. Based in China and not so familiar with the outdoor life here in terms of camping alone. Great videos, spent my weekend learning from you and love your adventures. Much love SA Traveller.
You are what camping is about! Easy, simple, and all about having fun in the outdoors! Love this and your channel! Totally addictive!
This channel is something else for me. It's relaxing and entertaining. I really like to just sit down and enjoy your videos and imagine myself doing similar stuff. Thank you for that
Glad you enjoy it!
HAHA same thoughts.. "imagine myself doing similar stuff"
14:36 "since he caught a fish...we caught a fish" love the solidarity on Snake Island
*Soviet music intensifies*
@@jupiter1789 yours is ours
I feel the peace in that place.
The nature's, lakes and views reminds me
About during my 8th birthday❤️❤️
Who the FCK parent takes their child to the most dangerous island in the world when they are 8 years old
Absolutely amazing ! I just loved it, the filming , the shots , the breakfast every thing looked amazing. Keep up the good work brother.
Bannock baked on a stick over a fire. Deliciousness
"Since he caught a fish, we caught a fish". The most Canadian moment ever xD Greetings from the USA!
lol Cheers my neighbor!
I love your channel. It’s so calming. As a person with anxiety you are my new go to channel for winding down and just calming down. Thank you!!
“I need firewood” *collects enough to build a cabin*
Xander, I very much admire your woodsman skills. You are living a life that not many can duplicate.
I'm really grateful for finding your channel. I love how uncomplicated you do everthing. No fancy fires. No fancy gear (exept for that flash light). And you are funny.
all that makes it more inspiring, great job Xander!
"A simple life can keep you alive."
These videos make the 3am youtube binges so worth it
Fuck yeah its 4am now here and i am watching and planning how to pull this thing off myself
it is 3:30 am here. Wooh
Thank you so much for this you have no idea how much joy and inspiration you bring to me and countless of other people!
These videos are so good to binge. Favorite channel on RUclips. Please don't ever stop making these, they are amazing
"I wish I could stay another night, but I have places to be and people to kill." - Xander
O_O
Hol up
He’s prolly serious too lmao
Mom pick me up I’m scared 👶🏽
So he goes camping to bury the body. What a relaxing thing to be doing. That also explains why he goes thru the trouble of going deep in the woods.
I never would have thought my favorite part of these videos would be when he makes breakfast and dinner. But here we are. Love these videos! keep up the good work!
Never seems to fail me when I come across these types of videos.. honestly they put me in a sense of calm and relaxing feeling.. also whenever I’m feeling down or depressed this videos sure help and I just wanna thanks for these types of videos
Watching this video was absolutely therapeutic. Glad it randomly popped up in my recommended videos and I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos!
Man, I absolutely love your videos. So fun to watch someone clearly loving what they do, your energy and positivity is infectious and inspiring. Keep up the great work. x
Thanks man I appreciate that and Im happy to hear it :D
Dude, what a great way to start my morning, LETS GOOOOOOO
WOooo
This was a great episode. Thank you for teaching me how to bake a simple bread while camping. Can't wait to try it myself.
For a second, at 17:15, I thought you'd say "I've been paddling for about 2 hours now and I just realized I forgot my second camera back on that island". I really enjoyed this video. It's just so nice to see you happy being all by yourself and just forgetting about all the drama out there in the big cities and just enjoying the moment. I was super stoked about that shot of the snake eating the first, too bad he went away later. Thanks for the great content.
Yooo me too
I love seeing how he shares the BEAUTY and HEART of man and nature 💗💗💗
Thank you!
Xander may be the best solo filmmaker there is. You make it feel so organic yet your camera set ups are insane. I cant imagine the effort it takes for each video. Keep up the good work my man!
Les stroud, contests bud. Lol.
6:13-6:18 just...feels right. so peaceful.
thank you Xander for that.
Such a nice peaceful place. So relaxing
I was excited to see a dude camping on the real Snake Island
7:18 - Those moments in your videos are priceless 😄
hehe I'm happy you enjoyed!! :p
When you bring a steak, make sure to also bring some white wine or delicate red such as Pinot Noir to deglaze the pan with. Then pour the glaze on top of your steak. Perfection!
My son and I go hiking/backpacking all the time. And we are always willing to try new bushcraft techniques: cooking bannock, building a shelter, hiking/camping in a storm, watching snakes eat a fish (we saw one eat a toad once!), swimming in mountain lakes... etc.
And I just wanted to say... when I want to point anyone to videos that will certainly inspire them to do great things in the outdoors... it's YOUR channel. thanks tons for all the time you spend filming/editing and most importantly... going out in the woods and enjoying life!
I'm torn...can't decide whether I was spellbound or enthralled by that snake footage. But my eyeballs did not look down at my lasagna once during that scene. Could've watched 45m of that uncut. I've watched a ridiculous amount of youtube camping over the past decade and I've never seen such a meteoric rise in a channel in this genre. Winter camping is one thing but you're still excelling with canoeing content and that is really tough to do. You've got something special man. Tons of personality & wit + exceptionally engaging filming & editing. Go ahead and quit your day job lol. Very very touched to be mentioned in your list so I really sincerely thank you for that 🤠 (Would've thanked you sooner if I hadn't been on a trip!)
Thanks for your comment my man. That really made my day, I really appreciate that 😊
@@XanderBudnick fully deserved, cheers brother!!
I subscribe to both of you. You are both killing it, great filming, great personalities.
Check out Justin barbour, another great Canadian adventurer.
Keep up the good work guys, stay safe!
I'd love to see longer videos like this one. 10-13 minutes is not enough!
fair enough
What a cool camping spot. That place is absolutely beautiful.
Out in the woods tomorrow, thanks for hyping me up. Always great to watch one of these the night before a trip. Can't wait!
Hey Xander, I’m no guru but my denesuline aunties taught me how to make bannock over the fire in the NWT.
When camping I find it’s easiest to mix/knead the dough in the Ziplock bag, then make little dough balls, flatten, and poke little holes in the bannock patties with a knife. Fry in oil/butter then eat warm with jam/butter/honey. Super simple & fucking delicious
awsome man ill have to try that- love the idea of using the ziplock bag!! Ill be bringing some jam out on my upcoming outing to make with the bannock. thanks for sharing!!
This channel is awesome. I went on my first overnight hike the other week, I'm sure keen for more adventures. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Love your humor and antics. Keep the foolish coming
The best thing about this video is you just keep it real all those nature sounds makes this video calm to watch not adding any music for the background was a best decision you have made, nice editing with amazing cinematography
I cannot wait to be able to travel again and get back to doing things like this. So envious of these locations! Keep up the great work!
That breakfast sandwich looked absolutely bomb
ohh man it was
not as bomb as the breakfast fish the snake had.
What a hardworking man you’re brother . Respect
How wild and majestic it was to see that snake consume the fish.
The editing on your videos is just phenomenal!! I find your work on par with professional documentary quality pieces!! I'm enjoying your channel more and more.
Found you about 2 weeks ago and have no binged everything, and planning my own hike in NZ later in the year! Love your videos Xander, they’re amazing and so calming to watch!
Your videos are like being there! You keep it simple and real. Very good presentation. Keep ‘em coming and stay safe!
Thanks youtube for recommending this channel. 😄
I think I'm not the only one who find this channel so relaxing, comforting to watch. Not to mention the food he's been cooking ha ha.
I miss my hiking days here in the Philippines. But looking forward to bounce back next year! Stay safe!
I love watching how you cook all those delicious food during the camp haha. Please keep doing what you love!!!
Great to see recognition where it's due. Congrats on 100k subscribers! With Ontario finally opening up hoping to get out real soon myself. Learning a lot, keep em coming!
Absolutly, I couldent have done it without others!!!! Thanks my friend! Aye hope you get out too!!
I love watching these kind of videos which I will never do but will watch while camping on my couch.
What a beautiful place! Thanks for sharing your trip with us! 🙂👍 🇨🇦
My goodness! What a stunning scenes you shot! I find myself feel more tranquil after watching your videos.
Those scenery scenes remind me of when I was 16; I really like to go to the forest and just looking at the sky as I can see tree canopy around the blue sky. That was a great experience and I hope I can do it again sometimes.
Also love seeing you cooking and eating, but that was massive. What a meal!
This makes me want to learn so much from you so that I can take on these types of adventures!
Thanks Zander. I sure enjoy your cooking . Gives me ideas of what to fix for dinner in the great outdoors!
I love when he gets the fire going
Is this guy Canadian? This looks like Canada.
*"It's like a Tim Hortons breakfast sandwich"*
Ah.
ruclips.net/video/DxbLjtUQdyc/видео.html
looks exactly like sweden aswell
Wish I could have a solo camping one day! It looks so wonderful to be connected with nature 😆
Shout out to Max and all the cool bros out there making a positive impact on lives!
Pretty great. Thanks, Xander. 🙂👍🛶
I got one of your videos in my recommended about a month ago and I can't stop watching. The videos are all super high quality and the pacing is perfect. Keep it up man this channel is incredible!
Glad you like them!
Xander reviews the LR50R: "for camping this thing is absolutely overkill"
also xander 5 seconds later: 7:19
Tape it!
lol :p
😂😂😂
Lol those hairs he lost from the tape 😂
Wow Ive never been camping before, wanted to go ever since I was a child, thank you for the one nighter experience!
this is awesome and so natural!
wow dude, , the cooking, the nature, the fireplace, everything in perfect harmony, keep it up!
Glad you enjoy it!
I rewatch your videos every night before going to bed, so im glad there is an new
Amazing :D
This is so nice to watch. I Love this Peace and Nature
Looks like a blast
This is so wholesome, it’s the first video I watch from your channel and I instantly subbed. I’d love camping like that but I’m afraid of bears lol. Great work pal!
I only just discovered you Xander and I'm 5 videos into the evening back home in Australia.
You're one super humble and talented guy. Patient and appreciative of all things life. Excellent cinematographer.
What kills me is the fact that you're doing this on your own (ie the cinematography & video editing) - there is alot planning, intuition and resourcefulness involved in your presentation of each adventure - some folks can easily miss out the fact that you have to capture each key frame separately with your cameras... Like getting out of bed, making the fire, cutting and collecting each piece of wood, what ingredients you will be using to cook your meal, or arriving to a newfound spot by the lake. Hats off mate, quality work.
I terribly miss my simple road trips and hikes overseas (usually in Northern Territories like Canada and United States being my favourites). Watching your videos reminds me the joys of the great outdoors. That one day road trip and hiking of 7 mini trails along the way from Banff to Jasper, Alberta back in 2019, that was done with a car though! Watching you doing this the hardcore and natural way - it encourages me go that extra mile of adventuring outdoors - to one day take a month off for vacation, fly over to Canada, do some sort of survival/camping course and achieve a fraction of what you're doing right now.
Simply amazing. Thank you and a big congratulations Xander, keep up the incredible & educational content (brilliant cooking and sense of humour btw - like that friend of yours in 'Solo Winter Camping in Primitive Shelter' episode) and continue to inspire many more folks out there who desperately needs an adventure since COVID hit the world!
Thanks for sharing my friend 😊 sounds like an awesome trip and hope you get to do more on the future :)
@@XanderBudnick Your most welcome!
Aww man, I can't wait. Sadly the borders ain't open yet in Australia - we'll probably be able to travel again in 2022.
It was brilliant! I actually got a quick story to share with ya Xander and I'll never forget this: Sunwapta Falls was where I encountered a black bear walking towards me on the trail back to the carpark! Thankfully a park ranger was behind the bear while keeping distance and giving me instructions on what to do - I made my way down the steep slope of the hill as instructed to avoid confrontation. The bear passed and the ranger continued to follow as part of safety and protocol. I got back to the carpark safely and also caught up to a couple that I encountered earlier on my hike. They were kind to warn the ranger that I was the last person on the trail. Moments later we heard a gun shot in the distance...!
Anyways watching you and your close call encounter with wildlife (like the moose and calf episode) instantly reminded me of that brief adrenaline rush that you get in these situations. May you continue to stay safe out on your next adventure!
loving the view.
You are like the water snake with that awesome breakfast sandwich trying to eat it! Thanks for taking us along!!
I think one of your top videos yet! Watched this twice already.
Love all your drone shots, but the way you did shot island this time was SUPERB!
Would really love to see some pure/full drone shot videos of places you've adventured, and put that on the house big screen on repeat.
Also that snake shot you got, is this a Nat Geo application?! :D
Glad your into it my man. I'm definitely working on improving my drone shots glad you enjoy them. I find I have moments where I'm jerky on the controls so the video isn't as smooth. I usually only post the bits that are smooth af. Yah that snake moment was unreal :)
Awesome to see another video from ya Xander! Congrats on 100k!
Man did that breakfast look flippin awesome!
Cheers
Thanks my man! aye it turned out great!
Assisto seus vídeos todos os dias após um dia de trabalho. É relaxante e divertido, também aprendo muita coisa sobre acampamento e etc.
I love the island site's for camping ❤ it's like your own little world out there in the middle of a lake
Wow my ex's home is beautiful!
😂😂
The efforts you put into all of your videos really outstanding man. Keep up the good works 💪👍
Big up max! There are two legends out there. Who would have thought.
perfect camping!!!
Wow, i'd love to camp on such an island for a few days just fishing.
What an awesome adventure, cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely place to camp...Beautiful..
You’re amazing! I can never do this myself because I’m a scaredy-cat, but thanks to you I get to “experience” it. Stay safe!
That little "Yup!" confirming the food's as good as it looks haha, always love your cooking choices dude!
a great chanel with great content from a great human. Keep on doing what you love to do bro, you motivate others to go out and have fun for themselfs and you teach a great deal. I think it would be awesome with a knot-video where u show how to make different knots and when to use them. mutch love man, stay stong.
Thanks my man glad you enjoy the content! My last video was a knot video go check it out
Agree with every word. The knot video was awesome, Xander. I learned a lot from it that I've used since.
Yea great bit with the knots! I'm hoping for more video where you show your skills and teach how to camp. Beside, it's just very relaxing and fun to watch you, outside, alongside nature. Keep it up! I'm so glad I found your channel 😊
I love all your shows. You make me laugh with the funny things you do.😂😂
