It’s simple, I see Survivorman I click.

I’d love to watch a S&R show! From the Rescued and Rescuer’s perspective. Like, not actively running from them, but getting into the most challenging spot! That would be awesome.

Proud of you for getting the scope done, brother! I'm a fair deal younger than you, but I've been battered all my life by bowel issues, specifically crohn's disease and colorectal cancer... long story short; the scopes are literally a piece of cake, the "hard" part is the drinking of the prep like you were preparing to do while filming this commentary. The scope itself you're out cold and don't remember a thing, wake up and ride home, then sleep easier with peace of mind that you don't have anything going on in there to worry about.

Looking forward to director's commentary for season 3. Specifically the outback episode haha

I would LOVE to see a search and rescue episode(s). Plus it would be great training for the crews. Thank you for another great episode of Directors Commentary

Hi les I am hoping this comment sees you well, i just wanted to say I am a huge fan and these videos mean so much to me, whenever I feel a bit sad or lonely I put your commentaries on and it makes me feel so much better. So thank you Les ❤️❤️

The commentary on these classic episodes are so much fun. Thank you for this Les!

I love the idea of having a show with search and rescue looking for you. The show would highlight the hard work that those heroes do to help people. I'd also be super happy to just sit through a video of you going into depth about how you approached filming. I personally don't know much about filming but I think it's super interesting.

les was always the best. and always will be.

I’ve loved your stuff since I was a kid and I always loved how your goal was to teach people how to survive and show them the beauty and hard reality of being alone in the woods, not just trying to make good tv but making something that will stick with you forever

Words to live by " You sweat you die!" Became a family motto

Please do a directors commentary on every Bigfoot episode!!

The search and rescue with bushman Bob is one of my top favorite episodes, it's amazing how they go about finding people.

love you buddy, kickin' it oldschool in Ottawa here.

This was great but im sorry, when les started frantically looking through the couch for his remote to pause and comment, i laughed so fricking hard😂 that was the realest

This is definitely one way to brighten up my day!

The G.O.A.T is back thanks for all you do and teaching us the right way to survive. Your test results will be positive and I know it's personal but please keep us informed.

Been watching les since i was a kid and does a great job of making me love but respect nature

keep pushing for that series Les! I'll watch it for sure!

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE! HAVE A GREAT DAY, and THANK YOU LES FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO!

Hi from Romania!!!

This is my country 😉👏❤️😊

I live in jacksonville oregon!!!! Thats so cool been watching for ages

I've only watched this episode a dozen times, might as well watch the director's commentary for the first time in another dozen.

Love these commentaries, I remember watching Survivorman as a kid and gleaning additional insight through these videos is just a joy. Thanks Les!

I loved the original Survivorman episodes then and I love to see the episodes again now with the Directors Comentary. Wow!! Thank you for this all🙏❤️

I’ve always enjoyed when you had a rescue team find you to give them a practice run and to show how it works.

dabbin on some crumble while watching a les commentary 🫡

I'd love to see a director commentary on the times you run into people in the middle of nowhere on like day 3

I wonder if he will touch on the basis about the Bigfoot image behind him in this video

I’ve watched your adventures since I was 13, 34 now. So happy to see your work on youtube!

Wooooo lts go stroud . Let me pack my bowl😮

HAHAHA Les you have been, still are and for all of eternity will remain the greatest. This episodes intro made me absolutely die 😂😂 you're the best lmfao

Yessss more commentary! Thank you Les!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the director's commentary!!! I've been watching you since the very beginning Les and enjoy everything that you bring us. Keep the good stuff coming. HOPEFULLY, we'll see some new survivorman episodes.

I grew up with you Les , thank you 🙏

Please keep doing the crew interviews they are fantastic

Les , When I was about 10 my dad bought some land very rugged. I went out hiking and got lost. It was terrifying. East West etc meant nothing. As the sun started to set I finally made my way home. Great vid. Always and forever a fan.

i remember watching this episode the first time on this youtube channel about 2 years ago. its one of the episodes that made me feel i was watching a man lost

Thanks for sharing Les Stroud. Maybe most of us - hope it never comes to that tbh - will have some chance to survive and live in the wilderness if ever the world will fall to such a state that we might have to. And some might survive thanks to people like you, and perhaps even thrive.

Hell yeah, can't wait.

Its really nice to see you still kicking. It may sound funny, but I feel like I know you and we have been on many journeys because it felt like I was there with you on Survivorman. Keep up the great work Les. Keep surviving and thriving.

Excellent as always, Les! I have watched every episode of Survivorman at least 30 times or more and it is more exciting to watch the commentary versions as you learn so much about what was actually going on with each episode.

God all the music in EVERY EPISODE of Survivorman is SO GOOD.

Les is the best !! Thanks for these !! Very informative and entertaining

Thanks for another great one !!

I really enjoy these, thanks Les!

Thank you for releasing this commentary for free. I remember watching you on cable TV as a youth. Would be awesome if you could do commentary on some of the big foot episodes.

THIS PART ONE IS THE BEST EPISODE EVER MADE

Awesome Les, Good to see you ! been waiting for this directors commentary one of my favourites Thanks. Also this style of episode the way its been made I thought this was a really good idea i think it would make a good series done with S&R. cant wait for those new Bigfoot episodes I thought you did an Amazing job with that series to Thanks again All the Best 😁 And Keep Rocking 🤟🤘✌👍

Thanks Les!

Perfect✌️ friday and a nice beer while watching directors commentary!

The main and only reason to watch is if Les discusses the Bigfoot caught in the episode.

Its so important to get tested! My father had a part of his intestinal track removed due to a tumor. Thankfully they caught it in time! Gotta take care of yourself, no price on health! Goodluck Les!!!! 👉 😬

Your a badass Les and in my opinion, you started this survival craze, but I dont see much acknowledgement. I thank you anyway, I cant watch these shows for hours.

Gracias Les

Love these videos!!!

Just watched the hunting temagami with Bushman Bob episode and I loved it definitely one of my favorites that would be the most likely situation I'd find myself in, love the whole SAR perspective while they were hunting you and Bob down, I fell back in love with survivorman, so of course I had to watch the most recent directors commentary

@1:10:20 I call it a tether(double meaning, I suppose) to your reality. Helps to keep you grounded. Excellent work Les, as always.

Yessssss 🎉🎉🎉

When you mentioned shaving the first thing I thought of was Bill Duke in Predator.

the commentary episodes are great! its like Survivorman+ !!

I would absolutely love to own one of those kits you mention. :)

Search and rescue series!!!!! OMG!!!! I want that so bad!!!! 😮

This is one of my favorite survivorman episodes 🙏 Thanks for the directors commentary Mr. Stroud

Hope your colonoscopy went well Les, also another fantastic and insightful director’s commentary can’t wait for the next one!

Nice DC (director commentary). I enjoyed the Romania episodes and revisit. 👍🏻

Awesome

Hello from Edmonton Kentucky! Love your bigfoot videos.

this is really good. i can't wait for the tundra episode

As I remember you were lost in Fagaras Mountains as I remember in Romania (Transilvania region )

i want one of those kits! like you said les, i need it.

Imagine being lost for days then survivorman comes to save you

Commenting for support

I really enjoy these! Don't forget to do them for the Pilot episodes!

Good old humble Les....😀

Raw form of the early ones, awesome. The more polished ones, also awesome. But I got a laugh at the close of this one- it's machismo that says "get skills, carry tools", as these are things men do. It's a philosophical difference, I guess.

I definitely want to see the search and rescue. They did man tracker why not

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I absolutely love the music,style, format and even the clothes of seasons 1-3, it just had a certain charm (not to say the charm still isn't there). I love all survivorman but the first 3 seasons I fell in love with, but it may be nostalgia factor

I’m here early woohoo

Woo hyped! Loved this one and getting behind the scenes and additional info is awesome. Cheers!

Mother Earth is a fantastic album Les! I hope you dont mind placing this comment here. 👍👍🎶🎶🎶

If the sat phone isn't working, you can just call tech support haha

Thank you for a return to this great episode with your commentary. Would you (or anyone) happen to know the song that plays at 1:15:16? Thanks again!

Les, please do a commentary for the Mongolia episode.

Colonoscopy… I’m there with you brother. I trust it all went OK.

Les, I wish there was a way to be able to get your survival kit. I know they aren't for sale anymore, but I didn't know they were a thing until it was way too late. I have searched the internet over and over trying to find one with no luck. Looks like an awesome survival kit.

I think when people get lost in the mountains, and they’re trying to get down to a rive they can hear running. And coming onto a cliff that you know you can’t scale. and you’re body telling you it’s time stop, and you know that’s not a option, just a grim grim situation that could and it all??

I never go out on a trip with just one map. It it's a multi-day trip across (or round) longer distance, I bring the official map and at least one copy I've took of it. Usually two copies. Keep the copy in a ziplock bag and the real map in my backbag. For shorter "oh I want to check that out" I take a printout (or several, of the whole area and then some close-ups) as well as having it downloaded as image on the cell phone.

A "Search and Rescue" show could be equivalent to "Cops". I would watch it!

RIP Les. Hope the hard stuff isn't too hard on you.

if you had a cooking vessel and a source of water, to make that jerky go even farther is to take 1 piece and shred it or chop it up into little pieces and boil it up with the water. that not only purifies your water, it gives you a much more filling warm broth and eks out your food a bit more.

You don't sound egotistical lauding your own show. Not when it's as well produced, both artistically and technically, as Survivorman was. To the contrary, you sound honest and correct.

you could always produce on your own on youtube. ❤ have you considered doing hikes where others have needed rescue? for instance we have had several instances where groups have tried crossing the Harding Icefield near Seward Alaska and needed rescue. Military and recently a private group had to be rescued.

I'll buy one of those 50 survival kits!!!!!!!

Hey man, hope your 'scope went well, and you made some new friends. ;)

I love your shows, and there are a lot of new "survivormen/women" on youtube, but most are not so engaging as the original. That said - who do you recommend?

Can you start reselling the container/bags combos? Some of us were too young to buy them back in the day.

I want one of the last few Camillus kits.

Man I want one of those survival kits so bad, to throw in my travel truck
