A legend was born
I remember seeing this when first came out and it was great but now Les has age on top of the survival plan just hope he is diversified with his investments because having all you eggs in one basket is a good way to break eggs
I didn't skip four of your ads here..
How old probably was Les during this episode? Cuz I just finished watching him on his older self episode and I'm struck at how young he is here..
Having a face mask helps you in winter too. Keep your nose warm.
@@warriorqueen86312. He looks like he is 12. Lol
I wanna see Les sit down with a strong drink and watch a man vs wild episode and give his thoughts haha that would be gold
LMAOO for real. would probably have to be an exclusive video on his website or something , between DMCA youtube stuff and that network trying to take it down
I'd pay to see that
this
This^
I’d buy that pay per view.
Nobody doubts Bear Grylls' ability to survive, but his show also doesn't show his 20 person crew who's standing behind the camera. Welcome to television. With very, very few exceptions, Les has always done it alone. No crew, no assistance, no craft service table filled with Redvines, lattes, and yogurt parfaits. Les doesn't give us a SHOW on survival, we're watching him actually survive. Bear gives us reality TV, Les gives us the real thing. Accept no substitutes.
Les, makes about 100,000 dollars per episode. Earns every penny of it
I want to say thank you to Les Stroud!! I got lost in the Alaska last year and because I watched your videos before I left( I have seen every survivorman!!) Because of your videos I was able to survive through 2 winter nights until I was rescued!! You're a TRUE INSPIRATION AND THE REAL DEAL!! Thank you again les, you'll never know how much your survival techniques mean to mankind!! My oldest son who is 15 absolutely loves survivorman!!
Should make your 2 night ordeal into a book
How did you do it please give details ty
What happened man?
That’s pretty badass. Did you run into bigfoot?
@@ryan05cereus23 It's been done already.
Bear grylls came and went but Les Stroud is GOLD.
Ask people who Les Strout is, and than ask who Bear Grylls is.
Most people will answer Bear because of his massive exposure on discovery etc...
Les, you helped me get a job. On my interview with the director of IT, one of the questions I was asked was, who would I want with me if I were stranded on a deserted island, and my answer was YOU. He told me most people say their Wife/Husband. I told him I want to survive, not subject the love of my life to slowly dying because I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I GOT THE JOB. Still here 14 years later.
Dealing with some severe depression and loneliness .
So here I am watching the pilot and earliest episodes of yours . Makes me not feel so alone .
I was a kid when I first watched the series . And it sparked something within me that has never left .
Though I’m physically/medically not capable to explore as much as I’d like . I love stockpiling all these years of knowledge that you have given me . Here’s to hoping for better days . Thank you Les for The content .
This is why I watch it too
I`m 56 and have had severe depression and anxiety my whole life. I was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. Just try to keep your mind busy. Get as many hobbies as possible. My latest one is growing food indoors with cheap little hydroponic systems. Try learning acoustic guitar. That helped me. Yamaha makes affordable quality guitars that tune and play well.
awesome!!
Keep trying your best to shake off that funk, Jess. Lots and lots of people are feeling similar. No need to feel alone, this is all temporary.
Most of us are Jessie. You aren't alone
I remember watching season 1 on OLG in Ontario as a kid. I had a severe speech impediment. Your show gave me the courage to go to camp, and helped me out of my shyness. Thank you for uploading these, great to watch again.
Camping is so relaxing and cathartic. Just two nights out in the bush is enough to remind you how directly-connected we all are to this planet we live on, and how important it is to preserve its natural beauty!
Oui is is otho tuthe and y thug ji lol yr thuottjyhh t hi yt youhoothiou
i remember when this originally aired he had a bag of cashews along w his bars. this man is a legend. no one else even comes close, hes the best at wat he does. he deserves every bit of recognition
“You sweat, you die.”
My favorite quote from you Les. Say it all the time!
That closing statement was badass. That's when it all began! Way to go Les, thanks for entertaining us for years, and teaching millions of people REAL survival. I'm sure you've saved many lives
I'd say people in 50 years will still be watching these and learning ,
It makes me so happy you have a channel Les. Like many others I too grew up watching Survivorman. I remember staying up till 3am watching late night Survivorman on school days, pretending to be asleep on the couch when the parents occasionally walked by. Thanks for everything man❤️🇨🇦
Keeping that one eye just barely open so you can still watch!
What were you doing on the couch? 😂
I would love to see he statistics on how much money Les makes uploading these to youtube vs DVD sales. It's really a brilliant idea. I had no idea this channel existed until a month or so ago. I bet if there was more advertising, this channel would be huge. I've never met anyone that doesn't love Survivorman.
Les you forgot too mention that in the cold you dehydrate way faster and that keeping up hydration is key to survival. You can’t keep warm if your dehydrated.
I remember when I was young I saw Les Stroud shortly after I first watched Bear Grylls. I just enjoyed watching Les even more.
It finally hit me: after his monologue at the beginning about his doubts, the dangers of the cold, I finally realized how insane it is that he can actually do the survival part while filming AN EDUCATIONAL TELEVISION SHOW BY HIMSELF. Or should I say the other way around, like which is harder for him? The fact that he's doing what he clearly loves or the fact that he has to carry about 2-3 cameras, set up shots, and then explain everything that he's doing, while he's busy doing it. He really is a total badass.
then you had that dumbass bear grylls faking a survival show giving terrible advice like diving off waterfalls. His show was so despicable compared to Survivorman.
Woah he went to the same exact location and found his old shelter spot! Really neat concept to survive in the same location in two different seasons.
Thank you sir! My old dvr had all these episodes, I've really wanted my son to see this, thanks for posting them, so we can now enjoy them together. Thank you for years of knowledge and entertainment!!
I recently watched a youtube video (Fear of Cold) and all the mentions of how the cold breaks you reminded me of Survivorman going blow for blow with the wilderness on TV so very long ago now. So I had to come by to see how he's doing now and man. What a great thing to see you so active on RUclips.
What I love about your shows is that you don’t try to pretend it’s a fun and enjoyable experience to survive in the woods. You don’t craft some ridiculous bushcraft lodge in the woods like most youtubers today.
As much as I love Alaska...I am fortunate enough to have never had to truly SURVIVE during the winter. Through the US Army, I was assigned to a unit where "survival" is what we instructed others on...but help and resources were really only a radio call away if needed. But i will never forget the brutal cold and windchill on that glacier.....
Great stuff Les! Loved that subtle dig at “camera crew guy.” Winter survival is a loss all day with no skills or even knowledge on what to do to get through these situations. Your series is making a difference.
1000 dollar coat ! 200 dollar axe !! One match … Priceless 😉
Les broke the mold. The first survival show.
Use to watch these with my dad growing up. Now Im thousands of miles away stationed in Alaska and find a comfort in these episodes.
You had me at 'I prefer moccasins over boots'.
Keep on keeping on brethren!
Next up, bucking hay in moccasins!
The OG winter camper right here.
ahh nostalgia effect on full. "This is crazy" when the plan flies away. And a legend was born. Thanks for the amazing experiences that I almost feel like I'm there with you!
Can I just say how well you control the cameras especially in these icy cold conditions! Ive been relaxing in the evening with your show. It's truly engrossing! I love your determination and sense of humor. Thank You!!
Thank you Les Stroud for bringing me back to nature where I feel like I belong
Les definitely had more energy and enthusiasm in these episodes. It has to wear you down to do this for years
Honestly, everytime I saw the banner "the lost pilots" I expected Les to tell us an amazing story of pilots who were lost in the area. 🤣😂
It's so awesome to see Les himself being active and replying to fans on youtube.
I miss the old days in high school when your show just came out. My friends and i used to have sleep overs and we would order pizza and coke and just watch your show all night. We thought maybe one day we'd go out and do the crazy things that you do too. Before we know it, 16 years have gone past and we all have family to take care of. We barely even have time for a drink together lol and some friends have moved states.
Anyway, Les if you're reading this, i want to say thank you for the great memories over the years and for keeping it real.
OH WOW full episodes on RUclips! Finally. I've missed these so much. I watched them like crazy when I was younger, and Les is one of the reasons I got so into the outdoors and survival skills. To bad kids of today will grow up watching fake survival shows.
I watched this on tv when it came out, and i'm watching it again
twenty years later. You're the man Les !!
When Les said its about -30 my jaw strait dropped...
I got lost and scared in mountain of my own state but lived to write my story, which I will try to write down for my future family. It means and meant alot to me to have not let panic guide me and to have thought thru my decisions to the best of my abilities. Today, I have the memory, the burnt socks, the shitty lighter, the scares, and my life! Thanks head bandanna man! 😊
btw: that was 2009ish
Grandkids now ❤️👍
Seriously you kept us going during lockdown with these timeless uploads. Thanks for everything!
This was always my favourite episode. I have so many great memories watching Surviorman with my little brother :') true Ontario icon
Just hearing Les slip into his accent pretty often in this is something to hear. His later seasons you don't really hear it as much.
Wow this brings back memories. Used to always watch Survivorman before I'd go to school every morning on "OLN". My favourite show, used to go out in the wilderness and use the things Les taught me on tv. So many good memories. Amazing to be able to watch them all for free on RUclips! Hope you get the credit you deserve Les Stroud. You're the man!
Watching this made me pull out my old Survivor Man DVDs and rewatch them. You sparked my fascination of survival skills and bush craft when I was a kid. Thank you.
It really is interesting to hear how you changed the way you did things after season one and these episodes. Hearing you talk about the mistakes in film making, as well as just different techniques you tried out makes these way more in depth because I can almost hear you talking about it already in a breakdown. "Oh I made this mistake here, or that mistake there etc etc." I am glad you tested the waters out though Les. These things have always been informative, and even more so when you do the breakdowns and commentaries.
That flare comment and the three fire comments at the end were some examples of what I mean. Useful item, but not particularly useful for getting attention in the middle of a lake, during a "whiteout" But that flare you used on the island survival man. That was the stuff of glory.
I will say this as well - If you ever come back down to Arizona, though I know traveling right now isn't exactly the easiest, I'd love to join you out in the wilderness.
He just keeps givin' us more and more~
I'm 30 yrs old and Les is literally my hero. My whole family, mom, dad little sister and I would sit down together at night and watch him from when he first came out on TV... he brings back great memories and real lessons in survival.... We never watched BG.
It's pretty cool to see the MASSIVE cameras you used in the early years of the show. Amazing how much the technology has come along since then.
I wonder if they’ve gotten any more cold-resistant? Back in 2007 in college I took a video class and well, it’s January and we had to go film something on our first week to get a feel for the cameras. They weren’t the giant pro cameras here, but it being 2007 they were still pretty chunky for a petite 18-year old girl to carry around. (No digital memory cards! All videotape!)
….so like an idiot, I decided to shoot out in the snow in the woods during a Canadian winter. I got a grand total of ten minutes of (bad) footage before the camera fogged up and shut down. Ugh.
My future husband, in the same class, had the much smarter idea and filmed his own “snow” scenes in the backyard through a picture window. LOL.
I miss watching these old episodes. I used to watch them all the time on tv. It was on Netflix for a while and I watched them all almost every night before bed. Thanks for all the awesome info and entertainment Les. Hope I can find all the episodes again.
With Les you get the good the bad and the deadly. One man on his own telling the truth to put food on the table.
The OG and the GOAT - quite the accolades 🤟🏼
The tips withstood the test of time and it is still good to watch after all these years. I do agree cold is the hardest to survive, and tropical survival is a vacation.
Not sure how you time travelled back to 2002 to record this with a better camera but bravo Les, always knew you were one with the squach lol
I've seen every episode of survivorman back in 2002 and you are the real deal. Haven't seen this episode though til now. 👍👍👍👍👍
Les is hardcore fair play to him he literally bruterlises him self to teach and entertain us all I love this show👍
Les, I hope you see this. I just wanted to let you know that you really inspired me as a young teen. Even if I was just out in my backyard trying to start a friction fire or building a fort in the woods with my friends, it was your influence that led to my hobbies that still persist as an adult. I hope your legacy continues to inspire future generations such as the legacies of others like Thoreau. After all it is up to our new adventurers and seekers to protect and conserve our wilderness and wildlife. Maybe even our sanity hahaha, thank you Les.
Love these. Thank you Les Stroud.
"everything sounds so easy Ina book ..grab your snares and go 🤦 ; yeah right " ......I felt that one 😂
The memories that come with this show.
I spent a lot of time with my grandfather growing up and your show was always on. But I can honestly say with the knowledge that Les and my grandfather passed down- I’d be okay until help came along.
Big up 2. Les I've been watching Les 4 20 years from the six city Nish lov how he always shows respect 2. First. Nation big respect chi. Migwech 🔥 All My. Relation 🍁💯 Tor. Ont the. Six😉😁
So cool to see the pilot! Thanks Les!
I love the old episodes. Re-watchable anyday.
Oh heck ya! Loving all the content you put out. I grew up watching you and its great to follow you now as a young adult!
You are the OG. Survive plus work the cameras....the Mack daddy of survival shows.
Please keep this going I appreciate you taking the time and effort to show us this! Omg I want more
I haven’t seen this episode in years. The valuable info on how to make a compass from a watch is gold! Thanks for all you do.
The thing I like about survivorman is he keeps it real when it comes to his shows and skills
What an awesome reviz to see and on my 40th birthday. Happy birthday to me thanks Les !!!!!!!!!!!
Les, you are the REAL DEAL. I've been a massive fan since I was 7 (23 now). Thank you for being brave enough to follow your inspiration and creating all this for us despite the strong odds ❤
Thank you Les, reading the comments of different episodes I see watching you from the comfort of our homes back when you first started was very much a great memory for not only my father and I but so many others. I didn't realize how many other people actually enjoyed this same kind of memory and the feelings that we get when we watch you again. Truly thank you for such a beautiful thing. YOU ARE the pioneer of self filmed wilderness survival.
It amazes me that les goes out in the wilderness without weapons
Like most other commenting here, I grew up watching Survivorman. I think I had just started high school when the first season aired on OLN? I actually remember writing about the show and why I loved it for an English class assignment once, LOL. But I'd never seen the pilots until now! This really is the channel that keeps on giving. And yet my hubby had never really watched it, so I've been going through the episodes with him since the holidays (he's a videographer and gets quite a kick out of seeing the early/mid-2000's camera gear you had to haul around!).
Thank you for the uploads Les. I grew up watching you with my dad. In hindsight those are days I'll cherish forever. Thank you again from Austin Texas
Man I also grew up watching you and I owe a lot of what I know about survival to you
This !
I love your show Les, you have been giving me insight for many years. Thanks dude you're a bloody legend 👍
I grew up watching your videos on TV. It's cool to see them in HD even though back then I didn't know what HD was haha.
I love how calm his voice stays throughout each episode. He never really freaks out, he just admits that he either made a mistake or that he's in trouble. Always remain calm and honest with yourself in a survival situation. Great mindset to keep.
I'm stoked for all the episodes. Never knew there were so many.
I remember watching this on TV as a child! Now I can enjoy watching it on youtube.
Also, you should make a t-shirt that says "You sweat, you die!" if you don't have one already. 🤣
i DO! and its available on my shop page on my web site www.lesstroud.ca
@@SurvivormanLesStroud I did not know this!!! Thank you for letting me know!! :D
The first "you sweat you die" was in the FIRST EPISODE!!! I think that's just awesome.
LES
THE MAN THE LEGEND
Pioneered modern day survivalist pop media. To my knowledge, the only accurate depiction of its kind since Alone in the wilderness on PBS wayy back in the 80s!
The ending commentary/summary was fantastic. I love Survivorman! Such a great show to watch.
These are remarkable films you have made Mr. Les. Thanks for uploading them. LC in Miami. Bless
You can grind/scrap, some of that Birch or Pine bark into something you can eat.
With time you could make some birch or pine flour bread.
Les is the man, I've seen every episode (a dozen times) thanks for what you do and have done, I've learn so much thanks to your shows and further research
Also loved the corky humor while filming different shots and scenes in the early survivorman seasons
It was great seeing you at the outdoor show today Les. You're a great guy! Chatted with everyone, got photos, and a q&a was most of the seminar for fans to ask what they wanted.
You make me proud to be Canadian. Totally humble dude who didn't let fame get to him. I was the guy with the red ttc toque and jacket asking about the footage.
Your a true inspiration Les, thank you for all the epic video's buddy! :)
I've been Power chair bound the last 20 years Bro. Les has inspired me to try harder to get out of it and re learn how to walk because if I can walk I can go camping no fear just a healthy respect for the wilderness. I'm going to do it 615 lbs was 791 lbs two years ago.
These survivorman episodes are informative and fun to watch, thanks Les!
so glad i found this series
A real life like survival depiction,no fancy BGM,no bullshit,no camera team and crew,no fake drama.
1 man army Les is.
while all my friends were in school i was watching les stroud.
I forgot how young he was during these pilots so with that said to the les strouds Back in time keep it up you’re doing some great work
Hardcore man he is ❤❤❤😎😎😎 to deal with that cold 🥶 I’ve been in -8 degrees before but -34 is another story hats off to him.
Looks beautiful, Les. As always, thank you for sharing!!
I remember watching this on TV, so much nostalgia.
Excellent Les! Love your shows, the real stuff!
Thank you Les for all your hard work. Legend for sure.
I put Survivorman on and just fall asleep to it lol. It’s like my favorite show.
Les this arctic survival is definitely one of your best. You have many best survivals. Excellent. Proud survivalist.
The watch as a compass trick blew my mind. Thanks for the many many years and many many hours of survival information.
One time when I was young, my mom had to stay at my grandmas over night. I was 9 and home alone for the night. Survivorman taught me what to do. I checked my immediate surroundings and realized I had everything and then went to sleep knowing I'd more than likely make it. The possibility of what could go wrong kept me vigilant though. I went barefoot so I couldn't slide on the kitchen floor with socks. Prepare for the worst, always.
