21:46 he apologizes to the cactus after he gets poked. How Canadian!

Les, thanks so much for uploading the full episodes

I remember watching this as a kid eating junk food watching him eat bugs thinking to myself "I can totally survive" with a mouth full of cookies 🤣🤣🤣 I know better now

That was an Excellent Steve Irwin Impression

I met Les at a gas station when I was driving through Canada. I didn’t know who he was, but the gas station attendant said it was “Survivorman”. I thought maybe just some dude who lived off the land in that town. We had a funny conversation about Bear Grylls (whom was big at the time). Totally cool dude and down to earth. Now 13 years later, I’m watching his show to learn how to survive in my own state lol!

The patience Les has is something else. He's been an incredible role model to my brother and I. Thanks for the years of advice, you've taught me the most of any person in terms of survival and just plain living well. Long Live Les!

This guy is the reason I got into survivalism, bushcraft, and prepping

Remember watching this during the summers with my uncle ❤

Watched this in high school, in my mid 30s now, still great!

I love how much education he delivers in this series. About survival, obviously, but also about animal and plant life and indigenous people who lived in the areas he's surviving in.

I love that you uploaded these for people to watch during the pandemic. Seriously! It’s so good. I live out in Arizona, actually- I remember when you first released this years ago, me and my brother must have watched this a dozen times to prepare for a camping trip we never took. ... maybe it’s time to take that trip. I look forward to your podcast !

What a gift to the internet

The earliest episodes were my favorites.

Been going through a horrible breakup and a major bout of depression but coming back to this show is one of the few things that brings me any level of comfort. Thanks Les.

Today my life changed! I found out that Les Stroud, the man! Had a youtube channel and had uploaded his content there as well! I really enjoyed watching Les on TV with my dad and brother, and now I get to share him and this really cool show that both teaches and demonstrates amazing skills and the natural beauty of the world around us! Thank you Les!

I absolutely love the way Less sais "Uuummmm!!" Like hes eating a gourmet meal at a 5star resto!!!guys awesome!!

"Leave only footprints." We need more people like Les!

I like his natural reactions like when he says “oh” after flinging the fruit from the cactus on the ground and “ow!” When that same fruit pricks him

So far, what every episode of survivorman has taught me is survival is constant starvation.

"That's what can into your mind and create FEAR..." *zooms in on ground squirrel*

Les let me just say you are the true man when it comes to survival shows. You really focus on realistic survival situations and priorities instead of pulling off wild and dangerous stunts to wow the camera. Hell you even film it all by yourself completely isolated to authenticity in the wild. I fell in love with these episodes since high school. Always a blast to watch. Its always so exciting when you find food and water and build elaborate shelters.

I would love to see Survivorman come back after the pandemic ends, When I was 7 this show came out and I was desperately trying to be just like Survivorman. I watched Les Stroud and Bear Grylls on TV every night it was on and waited for every season of both, but Survivorman was all I listened to when it came to survival- the equivalence to the Bible can only be done with Survivorman. I even tried making my own Survivorman movies in the basement of my grandparents cabin- I loved Survivorman from Season 1 I hope to see him go again, I wouldn’t mind even watching all the Bigfoot Survivorman’s just as long as I can see Les on a regular basis😊❤️

“I can’t believe I just did that!” Oh Les...you were so young....you hadn’t consumed the horrors I’ve seen you eat yet...

drilled into my brain from his cold episodes "you sweat, you die."

One of the best docu/info series ever made. Hall of fame. Thank you for giving us your best Les Stroud!!

les it's because of your show that i knew when I stayed at the grand canyon in a tent on a road trip i did a few years back that Id need winter clothing. 96 during the day, got into the 30s at night

That desert has been my home for my entire life. Love it more and more everyday.

You're a living legend Less. I used to watch these with my old man. Brings me back to the good old days. Thanks for uploading these im sure everyone appreciates it as much as i do! :)

To this day this man makes me grateful for modern civilization. I’ll go down stairs and narrate myself getting a snack from the kitchen

I fell in love with this show in high school after one episode. Def one of the best, most necessary shows ever.

That Steve Irwin bit was funny, though a sad reminder of another badass man of nature who passed just the next year after this aired. RIP.

Nature is so amazing!, a needle and thread from the agave, and so much more.....

This is the Les I liked, I don't care for his cooking show or whatever that's about. Too bad that turtle did him in with a viral infection

Awesome! Thanks for uploading these full episodes. Something to distract me and keep me entertained during these tough times. Thanks so much Les!

I live in the desert I've lived here for almost 32 years I've seen a lot of really harsh dry desert and I've seen some beauty little Oasis that is utterly amazing Arizona has such diverse climate High Desert low desert but it definitely deserves respect

In the desert you can remember your name, cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

I recently moved to New Mexico, in the Chihuahuan Desert. I remembered you had an episode in the Sonoran Desert and I'm so glad I found your channel. You're an amazing person and a real mensh for uploading all of this content

Man I was pumped with anticipation on every new Survivorman episode when it came out. Even though I already loved being in outdoors doing photography, hiking, camping or nature watching, Les and show got me excited to head back out in nature.

The agave needle and thread trick is pretty incredible.

When your only purpose in life is to be a passing snack for Les

This brings back so many memories from my childhood. Thank you Les for allowing me to relieve my childhood during these strange times. Stay same from the coronavirus everyone.

Greetings from Brazil, les. You are my favorite survivor Guy!

I definitely appreciate these old episodes.. you never know when you're going to need skills like this.. especially with the way things that are going right now.. I think soon here quite a few of us are going to be heading for the hills literally..

Loved the Steve Irwin impression haha! Thanks for the uploads.

Yeah thanks I appreciate it. I remember watching them the first time. Love from Texas.

So very nice to watch these and they are so helpful. This is becoming a lost knowledge that is so dangerous to lose. Thank you Les for keeping such useful and applicable information alive and well.

watched all of his shows. watched this one the night before i packed a backpack and started my walk from Florida to California in 2011.

Its amazing how he somehow does this all while filming, I just couldn't do it in general!

This series truly is one of the best things to make it onto TV. None of the wildly edited super jump cut stupid reality TV show nonsense.

That needle and thread from the agave is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. I hope one day, I get put in a situation in which I survive healthy, but have the chance to use stuff I’ve learned from you.

Les, I’d just like to say how much I admire you and your life’s work. You’re the real deal, mate.

I gotta give it to you, sir. Your Steve Irwin (R.I.P) impression was spot-on!

Living in the region, this is priceless.

Watching these again after some years - still love em. :) Also great for refreshing some knowledge, tomorrow we're heading out into the mountains at some 38+ Celsius. :)

boy that grasshopper kabob really got my mouth watering....add in the prospect of tapeworms...heaven!

I love this show-thank you les!! I've watch your shows since day1 on discovery channel -now I can enjoy them here😚

Love watching the warm ones during the Winter.

Never heard about les until I saw the gq thing about rating the survival scenes in movies lol. I do live in uk though and it's all bear grills over here well it used to be anyway

And I had to walk it twice to get all the gear. That is why you are the man. Thanks for all of the videos!

hand drills are insanely difficult hes so knowledgable

My most favorite survival guide or show ever created and what a blessing we all have Les Stroud! I love the way he talks too us and is always shooting these cool pics of the landscape and too me nothing really compares too this man!! I use to watch these with my father on the couch on school nights!!

Thank you Mr Stroud.

Les you are amazing for doing this for us. I’ve watched you since season 1. It’s so good to see all of this again.

Les helping us all 🇨🇦, God love him.

We call them Javelina in AZ. Thanks alot for posting.

This episode was always one of my favorites growing up in Arizona. A lot of this stuff has stuck in the back of my mind any time I go out camping years later!

Still to this day want to try a grasshopper kebab because of this episode

You are my favorite version of Captain Jack Sparrow. I remember watching these when you were still the age as seen on screen.

Thank you so much for uploading these full episodes. I remember watching the show as a kid and enjoying survivorman a lot.

creosote bush - we had one in our yard for 52 years. every rain we got made our whole yard smell so awesome due to that bush.

Watching these videos over the pandemic 😷 we face right now. It brings back memories of me and my dad sitting in the living room on weeknights and weekends, TV set to science channel or the discovery channel on cable and watching this I actually was trying to take notes in my small notebooks that I wasn’t using in school. My dad and I enjoyed these videos, I hated how he keep saying next camping trip he making me eat a bug like Lee did. I freaked out going,” no gross! You can eat the bugs I looking for plants and fruits from trees that won’t kill me that I can eat.” We would just end up laughing in the end. Wow, I can’t even believe I been watching these kind of videos for 20-21 years of my life. I still have wonderful memories of these videos from my childhood. But now I watching them on my own, my dad and I have not gotten along for a while and well bitter sweet memories right now. Yet I am Thankful these video were aired on tv and saved here on this KZfaq channel. Now I am never without my survivor man videos and my memories. Take care everyone and stay safe out there. “ let’s enjoy life!”- (Pitbull 2010)

17:26 "He shuldn't be much of a problem.. Ow!" 🤣🤣LMAO loved this show since I was a kid.

This is one of the first episodes i ever watched and it got me hooked

I love the old red dirtbike❤

Thanks for uploading, Les! Finally I can show my favourite survival show to my friends!

When I was a kid, I wanted to grow up and be a Survivorman. I even got a video camera one Christmas. I wish KZfaq was as big as it is now when I was a growing up.

I had some fun times out in that desert we didn’t do any survival stuff and it didn’t matter we had good times miss that place I still have family n friends there so a return trip is possible

Hey quick tip for anyone eating cactus fruits from the wild. Burn the Glochids off. If your foraging bring a plumbing torch, and if your surviving usa flaming stick lol.

Dude theres Nopales all around!!! you took somany footish of it! Will feed U and Hydrate You!

I went through a tcap binge phase and re discovering this is nostalgic and and 110% re binge worthy. Les is the bees knees

I remember watching this when it was brand new thinking "thank goodness this is the farthest thing from Bear Grills!" I was hooked from the first episode!

This is completely underrated

Big fan of the Survivorman show!! But....Personally, as someone who lives in AZ, a more realistic scenario of the Sonoran Desert would have been summer when temperatures are in 100+ degrees not winter at 70+ degrees. Les was truthfully about what season it was which why I love his shows. Thanks for teaching us how to survive!

Hahha..I love your rendition of the Crocodile Hunter,Les..that was cool.

Thanks Les! Stay cool like the other side of the pillow bro!!! Your content has inspired me to rediscover my love of nature!

Thank you. 🖖

I’ve been binge watching for the last 3-4 days. I’m in AZ so when I went from most popular to oldest videos I came Arizona. Of course I’m going to watch. Loving all the informative tips. Tips? Not the right word. Arizona is deadly in the summertime. You can run out of gas or your battery can die on the side of the road in July with hundreds of cars passing you bye..Cell phone is dead three cops have passed you but no one has stopped you are hot and thirsty you are now on the verge of dehydration why won’t anyone stop and help because it’s too damn hot!! Now imagine being in the desert where there is no traffic and there are no police officers ignoring you.. you’re not very far from civilization but because you decided to take the ATV out to target practice in the desert only 25-50 miles in the dead of summer ( you are now at risk ) It happens it happens a lot people go out for a little joy ride and the heat overcomes all things practical. The Arizona desert is so dangerous because we live so close to it so people don’t go out prepared. Families will travel 25- 75 miles with their guns and ATVs thinking they will be home by 6 PM. There is a story of a mom son and boyfriend who went to the desert just for a little joy ride. That joyride turned out to be hell! Like I said they were only 50 miles from civilization. Unfortunately when you are dehydrated and began to hallucinate and there is absolutely zero shade and it’s 118° out by day and cold at night and prepared with zero shelter 🤦🏻‍♀️ it’s not good folks. The one thing I have learned from every survival instructor that I have watched on KZfaq is always be prepared unfortunately this threesome was not prepared. They made it out alive but 💩

I volunteered once, to help close up a colony of very aggressive bees. The first few attempt to approach the hive left me using duct tape to seal up my pant legs, sleeves, and beekeeping jacket to waistline. Seconds after replacing the lid, I had to stop, drop, and roll, as tho I was on fire. Managed to get stung over 40 times. Domesticated bees tend to bump into you several times, prior to stinging. The aggressive bees stuck to me like Velcro. Hundreds of them.

Near Young AZ. I spend a lot of time in AZ in the winter. Gorgeous area! Now I know how to survive without my RV!! :-p

In the childhood we used to catch grass hoppers, didn't knew that we could fry them, and make ourselves a good source of nutrition, if we were in the egde of survive:) thanks a lot! There are still tonnes of grass hoppers in our steppes in Kazakhstan, so now I know how I can survive if I need to:)

Les > ‘Bear’

I truly appreciate the free content

Thank you so much for uploading these. I absolutely loved this show while it was on Discovery and could watch these a million times

I live in Az Les came here in the winter. It gets up to 110 degrees average in summer. But still cool he came here, showed me a lot of stuff if it goes down. But Riparian zones are few and far between here. And he's in the Grasslands, a bit north of Phx

I’ve never seen a guy that gets hurt as much as Les does. 😂 Thanks for putting up the videos and showing us the way it really is out there!!!

Moved to Phoenix and love to watch him master the desert in his second episode is amazing. He’s on my tv all day every day. Tv worth watching instead of shit and garbage normally on.

This show is soooo good and educational. Thank you for uploading them for us Les!!

I’ve spent hours in that very desert. I love the Sonoran Desert.

So many good memories watching this show when I was young. Looked forward to it every time the new episode released. Les is a man!

Great to have a recap of these shows. Brings back memories from watching it back in the old days many many moons ago.
