Ante Mandaric Ante Mandaric I appreciate your concern but was very troubled and offended you would preach to me after what I shared. I shared what I did in a knee jerk reaction to difficult grief in my life , late at night after being stirred to memories me and my boy shared from watching this video Grief is not a sign or signal for you to jump and try to convert someone Don’t you know that Jesus rebuked the church of that day for doing and acting the same way ? Your reply to me that my heart is a heart of stone and I need the Holy Spirit and conviction of my sins ??!! Are you serious ? Let me explain something to you even though I maybe should be bigger and just let God deal with you I have been a Christian for 35 years with a much stronger testimony then yours. What makes you think I need saving ? Because I spoke out my grief ? Because I said I didn’t know what my purpose is now ? I’m not a perfect man by any stretch as neither are you and yes I’m still in grief as I loved my boy with all my heart My hope of seeing my boy again is the hope I hold onto and the kind of real faith that’s required to live through this. I’m sorry but people like you give the Lord a bad name. Jesus said don’t tell people you love Him SHOW them. If He gave you a new heart then I suggest you use your heart to respond to people not a drive to tell people how to get saved. Jesus said it is the Love of God that draws men NOT judgment. You passed judgment and expect anyone to respond ? It will never ever happen. You put that religious reply on here for the world to see as a representative of Jesus Christ and your word is I have a hard heart and need to repent ? It would of been completely different if you would of used a scripture to comfort or encourage Then if I wasn’t a Christian believing man maybe I would think about it or contemplate it But to jump right into someone tell them how bad you were then how good you are and tell someone their heart is hard when all they are doing is grieving is, well, uncalled for and out of place Jn 5:39. You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and yet scripture points towards me Please don’t respond as will only make it worse. Don’t represent yourself as a Christian unless you do so with the love of God in your heart. Then from the abundance of the heart the mouth will speak what God wants Otherwise the Bible says your a sounding gong

That's how most all of them lived up until a few hundred years ago

im going to live like this one day, its real freedom.

Guys, he isn't living out there full time, he ha a family back in town where he spends most of his time, look closely at the cabin, hardly any personal items or food there, I was fooled too for a bit.

Crazy Canuck.... I've had the same conservation with myself many times over the last 6.5 yrs and especially the last 2. Watching Shawn tells me I dropped the ball.

Richard I believe we are all special, and lucky enough to have a guy like Shawn remind us that we are (special)...

Sorry about your loss sir. Wish You the best on your journey, hope You will find happiness.

Amazing. Lost my 21 year old son in 2001 - 10 days before 911 and his mom died in a car accident when he was only eight. Never went to live off the grid but did go off grid in other ways still recovering. Some positive things - like connected with a beautiful women who I knew in my twenties. She said yes 4 years ago. Live in the mountain's and hope to never live in a city again. Power to you Brother. Hope all is well and you thrive in your heart and Soul.

Repent and believe the gospel, you must be born again to inherit the kingdom of God.

But that's still off-grid, so it counts.

No its not. Perhaps you shoul talk in your own phon

@@jackieselvey6639 Yes, I do take my phone to the woods with me as well as my motorcycle trips. My elderly wife, who doesn't travel with me to the woods or on the motorcycle has had a number of falls, a skull fracture, nine broken ribs and a broken arm requiring a shoulder replacement. Real life does require some compromises.

The good life.

I agree there

I was sorry that it ended so soon!

It was like a perfect film 🎥 to watch on big screen, amazing job, thanks for sharing

I feel the same way ..

He didn’t accomplish this don’t feel bad. It’s just entertainment. It’s impossible to live in the wild for two years with no contact from anyone as this video title suggests, and build that shelter with those tools he had, and hunt and get food for him and the dog all at the same time. It’s complete bogus . It’s just for entertainment

@@b-rare I've also noticed he had to go out and get certain materials to build but..I think the guy was saying the depression/lack of drive and will would screw us...(more so that the material supplies and work)

@@kristinadk the title says “2 years alone”. All I’m saying is that’s bull shit. Just hunting alone for food to survive for him and the dog would take up 8-10 Hours a day. It’s crap . Entertaining yes, but don’t lie to us now we’re not that stupid Lmao . And the dog looks like it’s eating kibble like where’s he hunting kibble ? Crap !!!! Let’s say he had another man there that did all the hunting , I don’t even believe one man with those caveman tools could build that much in two years . That’s another crap hole. I know too much about renovations to say that’s well maybe possible but everyday 10-12 hours days lol. Using an axe to cut down trees? Common. And a hand saw? Lol. It’s too fluffy for me

@@b-rare lmao you sound so pissed, it's kinda funny lol And yes, I get it.. lol ... (That's what people usually do to lure others in,... they put titles like that to get your attention) no need to get angry man lol ..politicians, news networks, KZfaq, and books do it all the time

Desmond Brady, Jeremiah Johnson is one my favorite movies, too. Saw it at the drive-in with my family when I was young. Another good movie is The Trap with Oliver Reed.

Loved Jeremiah Johnson with Robert Redford, about a mountain man, but missing from the movie was builds like Shawn makes.

This is my Soap Opera, I can't get enough. I keep coming back for more simply genius.

Yes, Jeremiah Johnson is one of my favorites too. But this amazing film was not done on a big budget.

We love watching your videos we live in New Hampshire. We would live off the grid if we wete young, now in our late 70 clser to 80. We are in N.H thats the closest to living with nature.

Yvi a lovely rewarding comment.

Just a minute before I read your comment I was thinking; the person you were as a child is the person you are meant to be, before there is peer pressure and you didn't know about conforming to the norm. I believe that not living your own authentic life is the cause of depression and addictions. Many of us find it very hard to play a part, and sooner or later we have to go back to the authentic person we were as a child.

Who says you can't live the life you want and have an income? I've lived my 62 years exactly the way I wanted and always had an income - but usually just enough to keep doing what I was doing. If the life you want involves many material things, then of course you're going to have to be a slave.

envy

Lets see, PETA didn't like the fact that he was fishing, Greenies didn't like the idea that he was cutting down trees and changing the flora and the fauna to meet his needs. Let's not forget the air pollution from those lanterns... And the anti-gun nutz saw the shotgun and went ballistic...and then there was Bambi! And you ask why some people gave a thumbs down?

They just envy because they cannot do like that better...

I'm skeptical of the whole alone in the woods for two years thing. He rather made several trips to stores to get certain materials, or just planned perfectly on what he needed to bring before he left. Also, the drone shots of him when he's ice skating, who was piloting it? Also Also, how did he charge his camera?

Consider watching the documentary of Dick Proenneke.

Phe rocks - I feel the same I couldn’t have said it any better myself, I have tons of respect and admiration for this man, I love how he keeps coming up with ideas to improve the inside of the cabin and he accomplished it all on his own with true skill and dedication , and when he goes out in the wilderness with his dog it looks like heaven on earth, just man and mans best friend, when I was scrolling through the KZfaq videos and stumbled upon this video I looked directly at the thumbnail without reading it and right off the back I thought it was a video of the Hatfields and McCoys, on the thumbnail he looks exactly like Kevin Costner when he starred in the movie Hatfields and McCoys
