Probably the most important message of the movie, is about the state of mind and decisions you make once you are in a real life threatening situation. When I was 35, I fell through the ice of a frozen lake by myself. Nothing gives you mental clarity of purpose like a life threatening situation.

I also read a version of the Hugh Glass story where the recovery of his prized gun was not only his primary motivation, but he had actually been a gunsmith apprentice earlier in life. He helped make that rifle and had absconded with it without properly paying his master for it, but kept and used it until his mauling. That was what he really wanted back. Finding out Bridger didn’t have it, and that Fitzgerald did kept him going. Not killing Fitz when he got his gun back supports the strength of faith in Christianity at the time. Why kill a man when you survived and got your stuff back?

For anyone thinking about trying maggot therapy down the road. Please realize they use lab grown maggots for this that have essentially been genetically bred for it and are considered much cleaner than letting a fly lay some eggs on an open wound you develop. I had a patient once who had cut his calf on some barbed wire while out in the field. He had the bright idea to rub some bacon fat on it and let some flies lay their eggs on it. By the time he actually came to the hospital he was septic and had to have the lower part of his leg amputated. Long story short if you get a bad wound/infection go to the hospital and let them treat it before resorting to something such as maggot therapy on your own.

Most people would miss that Hugh Glass didn't put the maggots in his wounds'. He just didn't remove the ones that were actually cleaning infected tissue from his wounds. The wounds that continued to be infected in spite of the maggots were probably scrubbed out with 'Indian herbs' Glass knew from his time with the Pawnee were safe and healing. And by scrubbed out I mean literally scrubbed out; Glass most likely used handfuls of herbes to debride every speck of dead and decaying tissue he could find.

Never thought there was the hope of a sequel but hearing this I hope Di Caprio gets to eat another raw liver.

Well, you are just a muffin after all.

I can relate. I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago where they dispersed everyone from Cabrini Green and I not only survived, I became a great white legend. I never once backed down or cowered from these gangbangers my whole life, even damn near killing one with my bare hands bodyslamming him on the curb. They called me “Joker,” because I started out nice, but when people who didn’t know me tried to mess with me they said, “Joker don’t play,” and if the warning wasn’t heeded, everyone would stand around and gather in a circle to watch their own shorties get flexed like nothing. Good times. Can’t hardly even tell a single story, nobody believes it. Nobody believes that when guns got pulled on me I’d tell mofos to follow me to my house so I could get a sword and make it even. Nobody comprehended my fearlessness. Had no choice. It was respect or death and I wasn’t going to make that choice easy.

Wow! Blown away by this story! Thank you for telling it the way you always do!

Well once again a great story love your channel been watching for year's 💯💯💯💯

Brilliant. I had no idea, what a remarkable man. Perfect in the telling, thank you.

I really appreciate how in depth and interesting all your videos are; you best believe I always watch to the end.

🤣 🤣 You actually performed an article I specifically requested! Yes, Glass should have had his entire story told.. Not him just crawling after getting in a fight w a bear

IIRC Most pirates got their jobs in that era the same way. "Join or die" was the name of the game, and once you're in, getting out was basically impossible.

He didn’t want to. He said no, one minute in. Just a prediction.

One of THE best channels on KZread. Love seeing it grow for it’s early days. Amazing.

Do enjoy your content. Well researched and informative. Love the presentation too.

I read in an old diary that Glass once ate an entire birthday cake before his friends could tell him there was a stripper in it.

Sad confession: Because of his accent the entire time that I’ve been a fan of his I thought he opened with “Hey 42 here” and I just realized he has been saying “Thoughty2” and not “42” 😅😅😂

Man In The Wilderness starring Richard Harris. Character name changed to Zackary Bass. Jim Bridger left him for dead because he left his cake out in the rain. He just couldn't take it.

Everytime i come back he has a new style, loved the "grandfather" style but this casual one is also pretty nice. Content is always informative, funny, and when needed very serious.

I just watched this movie awhile ago, and it was amazing, especially at the end.

The "i" in Kiowa is pronounced as the "i" in life is pronounced. A better video about this mountain man than Hollywood, with all its production abilities could do. Once again, you have beat the "professionals" at their own game. The truth is almost always the better story, as you have proven time and again.

Dang Thoughty is living the life now. Records a month's worth of stuff in a day not bothering to change shirts and then probably has other people doing all the other work while he probably goes and visits some other countries or goes skiing or something.

Honestly, running things that way will run the same way a game of telephone would ironically, I'm pretty sure he's very hands on still. He has to manage everything and pay attention, think of new ideas. It doesn't get easier, you just have people to help you with the things you can't handle anymore. He's most likely very busy.

They have to cater to audiences that go to the movies to see a DC Comic brought to life. Shows you the emotional level of the average person who goes to the movies. Sure, a lot of people pretend that their kids are the reason they go, but adults are the real reason, and that's who movie makers cater to. To that low level, limited attention span mentality. They can't handle anything real, because it's too hard to think about. They pay for thrills, explosions and pretending they could fit into to a superhero costume...
