  Started watching Les almost 2 decades ago when Survivorman was first aired. Always appreciated his no nonsense approach at surviving, and not trying to be flashy.

  The one movie trope that drives me absolutely crazy is when someone throws away their canteen as soon as it’s empty. So what do they plan on doing if they find water later on?

  I don’t know why but Les is the only guy I ever believe with survival advice. Could listen to him talk all day

  I love this guy. Bring him back for all types of survival scenes. Les wants you to learn and survive; he’s awesome.

  The Man, the Myth, the Legend. Remember that Les is still very active on YouTube, everything he has ever done is available here for free, with the addition of directors commentaries and seminars. If you are getting a little nostalgic for some classic Survivorman pop on over and help support an incredible human being.

  One of my favorite things on Survivorman was when he showed how he filmed by himself. Like a shot of him dramatically walking away from the camera. You see him leave the shot, which is where the scene would cut for the show. But on his BTS, you see him have to come back and collect the camera. He's not only surviving, he's doing extra work for the show.

  When people ask me "Whats the one item you would want if you were stranded on a deserted island?" My response...."Les Stroud." Always.

  I love Les Stroud. Always appreciated how realistic, straightforward, and practical his advice and knowledge is. Bear Grylls was just too flashy and staged.

  God I miss Survivorman. It's one of my favorite shows ever. It's also sooo relaxing for my soul to watch...I loved using it as a sleep aid to take a nap or go to sleep. Between the music, natural sounds, and his soothing voice, it's like a tranquilizer for the soul.

  Forget Bear Grylls who sleeps in hotels! Les Stroud is the real deal, great video.
