Les Stroud hasn't done anything yet to cause me pause in believing his credibility. So until I catch him in a blatant lie, I'll assume he's truthful on his show.
Though I wish there was some camera work on the jaguar.
Les could not have faked the jaguar. How are you going to get a whole group of natives to lie on camera? They said they saw a jaguar around the area a couple of days prior to Les comming to the village. Plus you got to hear the cat outside the wall
I know we're like one big happy dysfuntional family I giggle and laugh all the time reading post like "bear would'nt lie because he's a beautiful soul" rofl
To the question posed as to how you can get a whole clan of natives to lie on film? I just didn't know if that was a joke or not. Does anyone in this forum speak that language because I would think that that would be the deciding factor on whether or not they "lied". Besides, if I lived in that village I really would lie if you told me you were going to give me like even five bucks. What, would it destroy their native credibility if they did? I'm sure when the chief saw the show he would be very disappointed in the village people for their blatant lies on camera.
Chucksteak, that was so funny, I really couldn't believe just how funny that post was. Police detective!! Haaaa!!!! I swear, Chuck, you really should be a comedian, you would have people just ROLLLLLING! I'm serious! Like in aisles and the whole bit. Just imagine a whole audience just rolling everywhere and knocking down tables and chairs and some might even roll themselves right out of the building maybe you just never can tell with these things, all hinging on one of the most wit-tacular posts I have ever, ever, ever seen. I'm so wet right now, I'm sitting in a puddle of tears that shed right out of my very eyeballs, I think my keyboard may just go to the dogs now, it's about to rendered useless. Haaaaaaaaaahahahaha! Policeman, not detective!! You so slay me. I'm going to keep my eye on you Chuck, you are comedic gold. Euuureeeekaaaa!
Those villages far out in the middle of nowhere that are untouched by modern man really could use five bucks. Wow, five bucks!
The local government around there already made it a point a couple of years ago to not familiarize them with modern society after what happened to some of the other tribes that collapsed on themselves from familiarizing themselves with modern conveniences. Remember, he was given a spear by the natives, not a rifle.
Yes I did grow up feral, until I discovered my one great talent was typing so now I decided to show you monkeys what I can do. No really, hahaha, see I'm funny too! Anyway, actually I have never been on the Man Vs Wild website, I didn't really need to as I was pretty entertained (OP OP WAIT! No need to start the whole "it's not real!!!!" alarm, I've heard quite enough of that and frankly, I'm okay with that, it seems you all have done research worth of the FBI's highest standards). The only reason why I came on this here webersiter thangy was because, like I said in some other thread, I really couldn't believe people watched this show. Just strictly on the non-entertainment level. And then I found out that you people LOVE this guy! And that y'all "hang out" together online everyday, and have actually bought this guy's soulful harmonica music and everything, and that you guys sit here and fantasize about what this guy is doing right now and put yourselves in hypothetic Les Stroud situations (wow-uh!) and that people here love this dude enough to sit on here allll dayyy long and attack anyone who may have a different opinion or even DARE to ask a question if the jaguar was real or not (policeman who should never be a detective I HOPE you have learned your lesson). Then I just had to mess with you guys. So I went ahead and took a break from running with the wolf pack and cleaning myself to throroughly amuse myself. But really guys, I'm sorry if I offended any of your delicate sensibilities, I have to get back to typing practice now, it takes a special employer to hire a feral typer, it really feels like we have to work harder than most people, alas, that's the story of this wolf's life, ever since I was young pup...
We do research so we can post a well thought out opinion and know what the H*ll we're talking about. It amuses you to come to a forum and write some jibberish which is not based on any facts. You feel the need to over compensate your lack of them and inadequate information with poor social skills. It's like walking in a strangers house and sitting your happy behind on their couch and telling them fix you something to eat. I respect others who have a different opinion and like you say the intellect to present their facts intelligently. You do not possess this ability. The truth is you came to this site to start trouble and I for one have no tolerance for you or others like you.
Wow, Spooky I see there is a new sheriff in town. The tolerance sheriff. And I'm about to be thrown in the pokey.
Actually, that was bad comparison with the couch and the stranger and the food and the what-nots... I think I called it pretty well as it is, a bunch of groupies who have not a stitch of tolerance for anyone who might have opinions different than those little flatulent ideas that pass for yours. Believe I am okay with your back up and your research (though it is is tad bit fanatical and oppressing) and your annoying never-ending, self-deluded praise of Manson-esque proportions, but what I find hilarious is your crazy backlash against someone who asked just a simple question, poor, poor Chief of Police. After I got attacked for having an opinion I considered the source. And once I found out exactly who the sources are this became kind of funny. Y'all are really too easy and as for all the intelligence I see being boasted about here and there that is possessed by none other than Survivorfans as opposed to fans of other people (???)I have only concern, if you could see my face it is very grave right now. Very grave indeed, in fact I would only be more grave if I had a pipe in my mouth and was twiddling a handlebar mustache in front of a fire in my father's favorite chair. It's an open forum people, not just Survivorman-positive-people. Get over it! I'm not at a stranger's house demanding your horrible food, I don't want any. And I changed my mind about hatching up a plan to get y'all out into the sunlight to enjoy life (I only wanted what was best for you, can you really hate me for that?), the world is probably a much safer place with y'all safely tucked away behind your computers night and day. Wait a MINUTE! I never saw the first episode of this show... by any chance does anyone know if the entire thing was Les standing there with a pocketwatch hypnotizing the at-home viewers?? Now it all makes sense how one extremely banal person recruited such a fair number of zombies with this kind of intense allegience that drone, "No tooooooooooolssssss" whilst gazing upon an entire episode full of 'em. Maybe what they meant was, "No Craftsman tools." Ya think?
My god. Your ability to bloviate is amazing. Did you get all the bovine excrement out of your system? Maybe you need a laxative? I'll wear my boots and bring my shovel.
No Ms. Redbud I will need to start up my heavy equipment for that job. Pinkie- Us drones have common interests like Hunting, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, camping, rafting, quading, snow shoeing, mountain climbing, etc. All of which embrace the outdoors hence the discussions about Les another nature/recreation enthusiast. Can you get anymore &n&l retentive? There are no claims about "no tools" Where does it say that he never uses tools? ROFLMAO over a mean tough guy with a grave face twidling his mustache named"Pinkie"
enough already miss pinkie. You really have that much doubt as to what Les is doing? My brother was attacked by a jaguar on an outing to the Amazon. Try telling him that it is unlikely that Les encountered one of those beasts. I just thank heavens that Les was able to come out of that without injury. My brother will never be the same again and for people like you to try to bring down a man that entertains us with his personality as well as his musical abilities just makes me sick!
Ms RedBud seriously you really make me ROTFLMAOSOMITUAOMD, all you ever do is talk about "bovine excrement" like it's the 17th century and that's the phrase that bookmarks intelligence. I've seriously read it from you like three different times and then I was interrupted by the phone ringing, it was William Shakespeare wanting his terminology back. Is that your unique catchphrase that makes you you? At first I thought it was funny, but much like Carrot Top now it's just sad. Bearrocks, you know what's crazy? I totally know your brother and we have discussed this horriffic tragedy to great lengths, I'm very sorry for my earlier posting about the likelihood, or UNlikelihood, of a thing like this to happen. In fact, and this is so embarrassing, yesterday morning there was a jaguar in my backyard. Your brother is a great man and I stand corrected, and ashamed. PS - Les's new CD is AWESOOOOOME!!!!!
