Survivorman



I know dh would freak if he saw this page. LOL. But I love Les and I don't care who knows it! (Let's just keep this between you and me, ok?!)

I love watching SURVIVORMAN. I am gleeful as a school girl when I am changing channels and happen upon the show. I gladly drop everything I am doing to join him (vicariously) on his adventures. The beautiful locales, his rugged good looks, his knowledge, his harmonica playing and instincts makes SURVIVORMAN a worthwhile show. If I am ever lost, Les is the man I want lost with me. No food, no shelter, no fresh water, no tools ... no camera crew. One man - alone in the wild for seven days with only his wits and stamina to sustain him. Airing on The Science Channel in the U.S., and The Outdoor Life Network in Canada, each episode finds Survivorman Les Stroud abandoned in a remote location. He carries little more than the clothes on his back - and his cameras. Les not only needs to survive for a week without supplies, but he has to film everything himself, lugging over fifty pounds of camera gear the entire time.
