Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Yup. I agree he seems like a good kid and I watch a few of his YouTube stuff.

And yes, we can read books. What is wrong with you darn Canadians?

I liked how, before he was on the show Alone, he fattened himself up, so.he'd starve slower, lol.

Worked, he won!

Yeah as far as alone, he is probably the fan favorite in regards to his recanted endeavors. I've also watched Owen's channel to.

Clay Hayes reminds me of a Matt Graham minus putting of the granola vibe. If you don't dig the granola stuff, Corprals Corner is a good YouTube channel. He can basically build anything with a shovel, a knife, and some paracord.

No for Corporal Shawn Kelly, but Clay Hayes makes six or 8 wraps of duct tape on a Bick lighter that is always in his pocket and says he can start a fire just about anywhere. Both are real no-nonsense guys who make good videos exposing the gimmicks that become popular but a nothing more than turds floating down the river.

Lefty, did you skip over the section how to survive gas station sushi and all you can eat crap buffets ?? grin

A quote from my grand dad ... translated into English.... " If you are in the middle of nowhere with just a knife, its a survival situation. If you also have a rifle, its a vacation. "
