"Hey, did you know Les Stroud retained the rights to his shows and published them ALL for FREE for everyone on youtube??" He just responded with a smile and said, "Sounds like something he would do" I love your spirit, man. You're an icon.

    This has always been one of my fav survivorman episodes due to the second night. I experienced heat exhaustion once before, it is extremely scary situation. Just waves of heat pouring off your body but you don't feel any cooler. You almost feel hotter. After I experienced that and rewatched this episode a week later, I gained so much more respect for Les. I was in a city, I couldn't imagine the feelings he went through in the desert.

    The worst part of heat stroke to me is the growing delirium and utter confusion. It becomes impossible to think, and if feels like dying in the sense that you can literally feel the life leave you, ultimately becoming a crushing feeling of helplessness. This was at home during a heatwave, and it was my cats that saved my life by licking/wetting my forehead and such. Gave me the strength to semi-fall down the stairs to the cellar, where I could recover in 14C down from 39C upstairs. I had memory issues for a month after.

    It's absolutely incredible the amount of ingenuity Les has, that is 100% required to be able to survive in these environments... I always used to think when I was a kid, "7 days?? That's so easy! That's not long at all!" But as I've gotten older, I've realized just how miserable these 7 days must actually be. Not having food for a day or two when I'm in a COMFORTABLE environment would be hard enough, but not what Les goes through.

    I went without food for I think around 8 days or so one time, just to see how long I could go on just water before it became an issue. It ended one evening when I realized I was absentmindedly snacking on some peanut butter. Guess that was the end of that. Of course, I didn't have to do all the energy intensive work of surviving in a hostile environment. But the hunger wasn't even so bad. It peaked on like day 2, and then I think actually got easier.

Les, you single-handledly created my respect for the love of nature. I would love to gain enough experience and knowledge about an area where I felt comfortable enough to head out on my own or with friends and enjoy the experience of our ancestors. This is a random place for this message but I hope it reaches you, I feel like you made a huge difference in my life. I'm 24 now but I remember watching your show as early as 14 and I have loved every single part of it. You've done a great job in television and just humanitarianism, it's a legendary title that I imagine will go down in history. I hope I get to meet you one day, attend a class or just see you out in the wilderness, I'll always carry a marker so you can sign my hat lol Love you Les, thank you for making a living teaching us common folk about the beauty and dangers of the environment, I am forever grateful!!

    But it could save someones life if they need to start a fire 😉 Im being facetious. But really, is there anything that nature produces that you consider 'garbage', or is it only human products? Now ask yourself why you have such a low opinion of human creations as opposed to the rest of nature. Animals LOVE our 'garbage' generally...they make homes out of it and use it for warmth and gifts. That doesnt mean they dont try to eat it too...there would be more food if we didnt infringe upon their habitats and also kill life with pesticides and hunting. But my main point was that 'garbage' is subjective and generally doesnt exist in nature. Kinda the same thing with 'pollution' as well except much of that is deadly to all life so...less of an argument for defending that lol.

    For those wondering, yes 140F or 60C would be a world record. However, like he said, he was taking temperature in the sun and I assume near the ground. When taking temperatures you are supposed to take it in the shade 6ft off the ground in a box that blocks wind off

    ​​​​@@WhoTFVotedBiden Yes it is. The temperature in the shade at 6 or 12 feet up is a proper measurement of the ambient air temperature. His thermometer said it was 140F in the sun, probably within a few feet of the ground, which would be warmer than the ambient air temperature in the area. That also isn't an accurate reading of what the air temperature is around the thermometer, because the sun would heat up the material the thermometer is made of, which would give an innacurate measurement. That's why he specified "...taken in the sun." It's still useful to mention because it gives you some information about how much hotter it is in the sun. Official weather measurements for things like the Guinness Book of World Records must be taken in the shade and at 6 or 12 feet above the ground. The hottest temperature ever recorded on the Earth under such controls was in Death Valley in 1913, when the temperature hit 56.7C (134.1F). Higher ambient temperatures have probably been sustained in the uninhabited areas of the Sahara Desert, but the Death Valley measurement is the highest ever recorded.

    I do mining construction in the desert 40c to 45c every summer. One day I drunk 11L or nearly 3 gallons. In a 10.5hour shift. The sun is no joke. Especially without shade. The biggest fear for me is not having a way of finding/making water if you do get lost. Deserts are the most dangerous survival challenges for that reason.

    It's not even about being better or more real. My main problem with Man vs Wild, is the fact that if you follow stuff he does on that show, it will get you injured, sick or killed. You don't go running around like crazy, climbing up and down cliffs, swinging from wines, jumping into unknown water and the lists just goes on and on. Nor do you go around eating or drinking things you have no clue about.. Being in a survival situation is bad enough, being in a survival situation with like a broken arm or a leg or sick, that can be a death sentences.

Because really, truly and honestly i dont really care what youre opinion is...to me youre nothing more than words on a page. If it really means that much then again, sure, you win. Ill concede. As well, ask yourself....even if i were wrong, is it truly worth the effort on your part to throw a temper tantrum like a small child? I highly doubt it, but obviously you seem to think its worth proving me wrong. So yeah, if you cant find anything then think im wrong to yourself because its apparent that no one other than you seems to care. You need to take a long hard look in the mirror and change that crappy attitude of yours.
