I'm 20 years old living in my own first apartment, and Survivorman is one of the few positive consistencies I've had ever since I was a child. Not only is it entertaining, but it's genuinely real, which is part of what's so entertaining about it. The older I get, the more I appreciate the nostalgia and the work you do. Thank you for keeping one of the last pieces of my childhood alive.

I am from Grenada. Its very nice to see my country being featured on your channel. This is how the locals catch crayfish. Chew coconut finely so its hard for them to pick up. Spit a small amount in the water. The crayfish will come out to eat the coconut then you catch them with the hook using a earth worm.

This man Les is genius..well not surprise he found nutmeg because Grenada is the no.1 spice island.

Finally a thriving video

Les is amazing. The Stevie Wonder of survival, if you will (with some serious musical chops as well!) I started watching his show over a decade ago and have watched them all countless times. Never gets old because it’s authentic. The amount of experience and work it takes to make it look this easy is to be admired. I knew this dude was authentic when he filmed himself crossing a glacier, which meant he also had to go back and get the camera!

Les is a legend. I've watched every episode so many times I've lost count. Taught me a ton.

Les is a legend his knowledge is the true to pure survival
