    You do more "living" in one month than most of us do in thirty years. There's all sorts of reasons why most people can't do what you do. Either because of obligations or medical conditions, disabilities, and so on. If we can't get out there, then the next best thing is to see it vicariously through someone else. I don't expect I'll ever get to visit Spain or Japan or South Africa, but getting to see it through others is nice. Plenty of other people say something to this effect, but I'd have to literally tap out a whole book on my phone here to even come close to conveying the depth of this: Really, truly, sincerely, thank you for sharing so much of yourself with all us strangers out here. I don't know if you've ever been kept from going out there for an indeterminate amount of time, but... I guess imagine it like you were kept from someone you love, and you know that you may never see them again with your own eyes. How appreciative you would be to still be able to see them remotely, through pictures, little recordings, video diaries. To be able to see how they've grown and changed, and to know that they're alright, and doing well. Living happily. So many people are practically kept from the natural world these days, and we're very appreciative to be able to check in. To see that the plants are still growing, the fish are still swimming, the world still provides, and that there's still such beauty out there. Over the decades some of the beauty and wonder of the world was only visible through things like documentaries and publications. As wonderful as some of the things they've captured are, they don't convey reality too well. It's all so corporatized, and over produced. It's like it's all an act. When there's movie stars we enjoy, we like listening to interviews or personal takes because the reality is inherently more compelling than only seeing them in a role, on a film. What if when you spoke with your daughters they only read from a script, and played a role. That would be heartbreaking, because you don't want them to just read from a script, you want to see "them" and know "them". The "real" them. Not an idealistic version presented by the British Broadcasting Corporation. You bring more to us than just yourself, you give us a front row seat to the natural world, in all it's rawness and honesty. And you're the shepherd. I could easily go on until I exhaust the character limit of the comments section.
    Never has so few words been used to convey so much, in so little time:
    Thank you, for everything.

      @valeriechaumeziere377 4 года назад +1

      I noticed that too. Its weird. Doesn't look easy, or natural. I normally cast by opening the reel, holding the line with my index finger and the rod gripped between thumb and the other three fingers right where the reel attaches to the rod. I then flick the rod with my wrist releasing the line when the rod is pointing where I want it to go. It is really accurate and you get right in under low hanging tree branches etc etc. It's kind of like how I learned to shoot a pistol from the waist too. Eye hand coordination. In some situations, there are milliseconds to react and no time to look down the sights, See a fish swirl the surface and drop your hook on that exact spot, or drop your round on the bad guy before he sees you move.

      He casts two handed , he hangs onto the line and let's go of it with one hand while swinging the rod with the other . Takes a bit of coordination but effective . I learned to fish that way as a little kid , still use it some times for close casts. He casts left handed though that throws him of ballance , I would fall into the lake trying that . LOL . Looks like them bears got him and Zack spooked real good .

    One of the things that I love about this is that you can see the mistakes and imperfections and even the occasional clumsiness. So many of the survival shows out there present the guide as impossibly perfect, speeding from one seamlessly executed solution to the next. This gives you more the sense that, even if you have years of experience, nature will refuse to cooperate, forcing you back on your heels and making you adapt. It's also a much more immersive and wholistic presentation. You feel like you are actually living with them, instead of just following them from one DIY tutorial to the next. And finally, I respect the fact that these guys had enough confidence and humility to leave their mistakes and imperfections unedited, trusting that the audience will find them more relatable and honest, and ultimately see that their knowledge and execution speak for themselves. Well put together, and the authenticity actually makes the challenges and the necessary skills clearer for the viewer.

    The world is full of food but it sure is hard to get. You guys are doing a great job of demonstrating why people started farming. I love what you're doing though. Not hypothetical situations, and not in an absolute peril situation like les stroud. As awesome as he is. This is just like about what two guys can do with some basic modern resources. I guess you two could bug out if you had to.

      There's a guy from the UK called Ray Myers and the contrast between him and Bear Grylls is amazing. Grylls will drink water from elephant dung or his own urine etc, Ray Myers does all the standard survival stuff but he makes things like fish steamed for 8 hours wrapped in a banana leaf with herbs and spices that look better than any dinner I cook. In my opinion he's way better than Bear Grylls because he makes survival seem fun
