Partly because humans aren’t solitary creatures. We evolved to be in groups. In a wild type setting a lone human was a dead human. Ask survivalists and they’ll tell you that even have one other person with you dramatically increases your chances of survival.

Thank you! I've heard so much bad advice about bears. It was my cat who knew what to do. Even to discourage an attack by a bear, you drop down low and curl up. This is what happened. My cat often went along with my dog and I for walks. At the time we lived in a small house in the woods. One time, as we were walking, we happened upon a bear. My dog and I just stood there (to his credit, my dog did not bark), but my cat, who was in front of us, just laid down on the ground, very purposefully, and slowly wagged his tail. It was, as if to say, "nothing to see here. Nope. Just move along." So I dropped down, crouching and bid my dog sit. The bear watched us for a moment, then moved on. Of course, the moment he was out of sight, we all ran for the house. LOL! Smartest cat I ever had. He was legendary. Thank you, also, for getting it right about any animal being a "man-killer." That bear I met? He seemed as scared I felt... and did not seem at all eager to come at us. He just wanted to be left alone.

Les Stroud had so much knowledge when it comes to survival. Especially when explaining stuff like edible plants. You know he has been in a lot of these situations first hand. And for the most part, that’s how you best learn is by being out in nature (hopefully with a mentor). I wish someone could do a film on Simon Kenton and “The Frontiersmen”.

19:32 listening to Les talk about that moment he had with his dive instructor really made me realize just how awful mine was. On my very last ocean dive before my certification the wind picked up really bad as we were heading to the water. I expressed to the teacher that I was a bit uncomfortable with how rough the water was getting especially since our entry and exist was a really slippery Barnacle covered rock. He completely dismissed my concerns and said we’d be in and out before the water got any worse. So I went in. Once we were far enough out we finally went down but immediately I could tell that I was 1) not getting enough air through my reg and 2) way too buoyant and not sinking properly. So I tried to signal him to go back up but he ignored me and took the two other students down to the bottom. So I was forced to go to the surface alone where the water had gotten exponentially worse. It kept knocking my reg out of my mouth and I was starting to panic. I didn’t want to let go of our small buoy and try to swim to shore cause the water was really scarring me. It felt like forever before everyone finally came back to the surface and when my teacher saw me panicking he just grabbed my bcd and dragged me back to shore and just tossed me like a wet towel onto the rocks to try and climb out. Oh and he failed me for panicking in the ocean so I lost the $500 I spent on the course.

This reminded me about the novel “Hatchet” in the beginning the boy didn’t know anything of survival, he ate berries that ended up making him sick because he was desperate for food. He couldn’t start a fire, and by the end of the book, he became very skilled and his panic and despair went away. That when a person came to save him, he ask the man if he wanted some of the food he had made.

One of the biggest and most important things is, Keeping your calm and using your head as long as you can. Hunger, thirst and other things like injuries, extreme heat or cold, and lack of sleep all have the ability to to seriously degrade your ability to think clearly, and that is probably one of the most dangerous things about survival.

Yes. Jeremiah Johnson was a great survivalist movie. My siblings & I were very lucky. We had a family camp with no potable water & an outhouse in the Allegheny mountains. We had to hike 2 miles to get spring water. So good. No one around usually. Black bear, rattlesnakes, copperheads, bobcat, porcupine, deer, skunk, red&black bitey ants (there were tons of anthills) etc. Tons of wild blackberries in August. So beautiful, but you had to be careful. Our dad taught us how to survive by being totally aware of our entire surroundings. How to use guns & other tools properly. Everything has a place & purpose. Did you know that you can eat maple tree bark & sap if you're hungry? Wild mint, dandelion greens, safe mushrooms... Being calm at all times & appreciating the deep beauty of this earth were my enduring takeaways. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Les. The world needs more of this.
