The Show ALONE

A survival outdoor show where 10 men are dropped off in the most densely predator populated area the Canada Wilderness has to offer. Each man is separated from each other, Allowed 10 items, must do their own filming, no weapons, other than knife and axe. the show is taking place on Vancouver Island, Canada with 7000, bear, 1000 Cougars, & 200 wolfes Last man standing wins 500.000K. Six days in... half the competition has tapped out. LOL Great Show...I think allot of you guys would enjoy. Check it out on the History Channel.

I've been watching it. The way they're dropping out, It doesn't look like they will last much longer. Pretty interesting show.

I've been watching that show from the beginning and am disappointed in it. Seems to me that most of the contestants are not very well suited mentally for the tasks. I turned the last episode off at the point where the guy said he had just had his first good cry.

The remaining 5 are now over two weeks In...I know I would be crying every night with 400-600 lb bears, and 200 lb cats just outside my tent every night. I think the show is intended to put an average person in that kind of environment to see how they would react. Can't wait for the lady's episode. LOL

I think the animals would be the hardest part mentally. Thinking every night laying in your tent that you might be a late night snack.

I agree those baby's are the real deal. If just one thinks you are right for dinner. No way is that production team going to get to ya in time. I sat in my easy chair watching the show thinking I could do that, but I also know it would be a hard pill to swallow doing what they are doing. Can't blame not one of them for tapping out.

Wonder if they have someone checking on them . If they get attacked they may not make it to the sat phone.

I think they are asked to check in every so often, but I don't believe there is a production crew close by enuff to save them in a attack. It seems they are doing their own filming. But who knows for sure.

Like it also like mountain men

Yes JW I am just getting into Mountain Men, I am liking that one to.

Both good shows. Alone has 3 guys that have a chance. The first 5 went quick.

My bet is on Alan winning it.

I haven't watched that one yet. But, those winter scenes on Life below Zero keeps me from moving to Alaska. Plus, My hiney starts itching when I see all of those bug bites on Naked and Afraid. DP

no cable at this house. So I'll have to wait on it to come out on video, they do still rent VHS tapes at the Kroger, right?

No. You gotta go to Walgreens to get medicine and then the Red Box.

I gotta go to Walgreens to get a RedBox with medicine in it? What ever happened to the guy on the corner who delivered his medicine in little baggies?

I Spent/spend a LOT of time in Alaska camping for extended periods of time alone/with 1 other person in an environment almost IDENTICAL to the one that they are in. I have had many, many run ins with black bears and a decent amount with brown/Grizzly bears. Black bears do NOT intimidate me whatsoever but those big brown ones do. Have not had any dealings with the Cats but giving the choice I would rather tangle with a bear than a cat...
Biggest things I noticed on the show-
RULE 1- When in a heavy large predator environment you DO NOT cook, eat, wash or have any soap type stuff within your immediate camping area. You ALWAYS cook, wash etc at least 100 yards DOWN wind of your sleeping area.
I have stories about this one.....

Most of these guys are ill prepared mentally for their environment. 95% of being on an extended stay in the wilderness is your mental attitude, sadly in todays world most of us never get to REALLY test OURSELVES to see what we can and cannot handle............
We have had many a client who are "big bad macho hunters" turn into whinning little girls in as little as 3 days on a 10 day brown bear hunt.

Well said Old, My money is on Alan to win it all.

If that's the older guy, it's who I think will win too.

Yep that's the one. Seems like a good Ole southern boy who would be on Crappie.com, LOL he's funny to.

Over 22 days in and the four our still holding on, Just above freezing temps and Rain Rain Rain every day. they are doing a great job. Alan cracks me up... reciting Edgar Allen Poe, and "dayz like this makes you want to hit the Old Button" He is the Star of the show. Hope he hangs in there.

Hey! Y'all can't bet on Alan cause I already did. Y'all got to bet on somebody else!

32 days in now and 4 still remain. My money is still on Alan. Seems to be mentally tougher than the others. I don't remember seeing him break down and cry yet.

Man these guys are bringing it...Unbelievable the environment they are living in and farther than I would have expected them too for the first show. Any guesses how long the last man will last?. I'm thinking it will be over at 60 days. Lucas cry's allot but that canoe idea was pretty cool and he works hard. I think Lucas will be next to last to hit the Ole Button. I keep thinking the young'est guy Sam will be the next to hit the Ole Button but he just keeps on tuff'in it out 32 days in and is the biggest surprise of them all, thought he would have been gone allot earlier. Mitch may be a dark horse to win. I cant get a good read on him. Sorry MD I am on the Alan fan club by a mile also. Love this show, Alan Cracks me up with his off the wall sudden antics and wisdom of nature.

The ones that start dwelling on home are the one's that tap out.

Down to 2 left. Sam and Allan.

Man that Sam is tuff'er than he looks and on a mouse diet too...LOL great Show. Lucas surprised me with his tap out. Love it.

Lucas was a surprise. But if I we're in Mitch's situation, I don't think I would have even done the show. I'm still rooting for Allan. But, Sam is tougher than I thought. :thumbup:

Shewww that is one nasty wet cold environment them boys are dealing with for over 43 days now. It just looks that Alan is doing a better job of feeding himself, but yet he looks thinner than Sam. All you see Sam eating is mice, while Alan is eating lipid's, crabs, mussels, fish and sea weeds. I think this will be the difference.

Alan was the man! Good thing I picked him first. I should get a cut of that 500k.

Alan wins!!!!! One tough feller !!!!!!!!

Looking forward to a season 2.

Man you just can't help but want to sit down, chat and have a beer with Alan, very likable and knowledgeable person. Great first Champion of the show. Sam gave him a run for his money, but you just know it was Alan's age knowledge and experience over Sam's youth and determination. Cant wait for the next Season...I am Addicted to this show. Put's that other survivor show to shame. LOL

After 66 Days (10 days longer than last year) in the Vancouver wilderness, David Literally wins it all with a stick, line, & a Hook baited with snails and lipids catching fish and crabs to give himself the protein needed to win. Great Job...

I had the Spanish guy Jose to win. That dump in the drink did him in tho.

The second place guy got mentally weak, and I figured he'd be gone waaaay sooner. He dug DEEP!!!!

That woman was pretty tuff also lasted 56 days, but when her salmon supply dries up so did she. Jose probably could have won, I thought he should have at least gave an effort at building a fire and try to dry his clothes out tho that boat he built was daym cool, but it eventually was the boat that cost him the win.. Yep Larry let it get in his head way too much and just could not put a good food source together. In the end it was the singlepoler that won it all. HAHA!!!

I was voting for Jose myself, but when they had the daughter walk up on Alan I have to admit that was pretty awesome

Awesome show I was betting on Nicole from the start but when the fish left so did she.I think David put the most effort into getting food and that's what carried him to 500K.
Can't wait for season 3 and the new the location!

I had Jose picked. I was hoping he would dig in and attempt to dry his gear. Reentering the reality of modern society would be tough after 66 days. I know I couldn't leave my wife and kids for that long. Working 50 hours a week I feel like I miss so much already. Good show though.
