You nailed it here.
Come on ALONE you had 3000-5000 applicants and you picked these 5 that have tapped so far. 3 more to go right away.
I guess to be part of the show you have to let on that you...

You are right on with this statement. His comments about having to work for another 15 years etc. etc. had me thinking then that this whole ALONE experience was an escape from anger issues with...

Just watched Episode 5.

This was the "boost the ratings show" with as much emotional aspects as they could cram in a 40 minute segment.

Mike: Wow what a find. That tub has so many uses....

Good idea but take it a step farther and also remove Ferro Rods/ Lighters. It would quickly weed out the Utube survival expert by day and Hilton resident by night.

By wearing a coat it looks like Jose kept his upper core warm. The producers put time lines on the screen and this note ( hypothermia will set in after 50 minutes of exposure to the water ). He was...

I would like to see more innovations on this show. Like a smoker or a stove, hypocaust, sauna, lobster/fish traps, etc. Other than some work on shelters no one seems to be storing goods (whether it...

Totally agree.

My Take:

Randy- Won't be long on this show I predict. He expends 8-10,000 calories making a shelter that is so flimsy I wouldn't let my horse in there much less keeping it warm....

I'll reply about black bears!
On Alone we get to see humans try and eek out an existence for 40/50 days. What we don't see is bears thriving year round. Their type of diet Omnivore is very similar...

Yes I should have reread after writing.

I have never set up another camp to just cook and eat.
We use a bear bag for all our food and garbage when we sleep. Bear bag is at the opposite side of...

Before I begin : a disclaimer:
I recommend having a cooking area 100 yards away from your sleeping area, All utensils and clothes you were wearing saved there in a bear bag, absolutely no food in...

I wonder if the Show forced Tracy off or disqualified her after her use of the Flare and Horn. They could have said Zero compensation if you blame it on us come up with a good excuse!!!?

True observation: If your not at peace with yourself how can you be at peace with your surroundings.



Other than a picture of a dog the only thing I commented to my wife about her belt with...

I was sure wrong there

A tree house would be great to see but;

Last season we saw winds 60 to 80 km per hour. I would not want to be 20 ft in a tree shelter under those conditions.

I believe a cave is the safest bet...

Very true.

It would be interesting if you could purchase a complete contestants video. Lets say complete footage from last year participants or this years tap outs.

A true bush crafter or woodland survivalist as you say would most likely not have internet or tv to watch this show. You demean people here and on other sites for something you yourself are party to....

If I had the choice of one of the 2 Heavy Blade or Multi-tool I would take the multi-tool.



Good point a decent 1st aid kit would be full of useful material.


Such a great observation....

Maybe because he always looks angry it brought down the ratings

Alan has figured out how to turn a half million into 2 or 3 million

So Mary Kate tapped from the cut to her hand. She must have been a volunteer fire fighter as you can see she has had no medical training. A First Aid Level 1 or EMR Cert. is usually the minimum. She...

It does! You sound like a smart fellow I am sure you could think it out and make it work.
Now me I'm an old fart and not gifted with a whole lot of excess energy. What energy I have I would apply...

WalkingTree
The fence would create a yard around my shelter which homogenizes and reduces habitat for many smaller creatures, deters larger ones or gives me response time for them, and allows me to...

Kyratshooter I have thought about this and have come to the conclusion that there has to be rules against such "permanent" shelters. Over 2 years of 20 "" highly trained survivalists and only 1 last...

Mike expressed last episode he is experiencing chest pain anxiety. While not a condition that is serious it could lead to future complications. He is experiencing this at day 5 or 6; mild depression...

From what I have seen from last season and so far this season they concentrate episodes on people that are on the verge or are going to tap out.
Interesting they haven't introduced Jose or Nicole...

After watching episode 1 Still looking for a trained professional!!
Tracy looked like the closest thing to a professional in episode 1.
Jose to win ( on his extended launch bios video he explained...
