In loving memory of Chris McCandless.🌸 How important it is in life not necessarily to be strong, but to feel strong. - Chris McCandless 🌸 He tried. Not Many Do. ✨⭐
It wasn’t real to him because he died alone and he knew it. He failed to realize being together with others is most important until it was too late causing him to cut everyone off and hurting them by doing so
I live in AK & was living in Anchorage, AK when Christopher Johnson McCandless passed away. I have been been to many of the places he has been, AK highway, Yukon, Liard Hot Springs, Fairbanks, Denali. I attended University of Fairbanks where Bus 142 is now stored. I admire him for the life he lived. He experienced more at the age of 24 than most people do in their lifetime. Ironically, he discovered at the end of his journey he truly did not want to be alone & needed people. He leaves an indelible mark on the people that read the story of his life. R.I.P. Christopher J. McCandless aka Alex Supertramp. Aug, 1992, on the Stampede Trail on The Fairbanks City Transit bus, 142.
This was lovely I fell in love with this film immediately and watched it countless time and now I’ve read the book by Jon Krakauer which was extremely touching and pieced together harmoniously. I wish I been up there by now and I haven’t that really makes me wanna go more before I turn 30
I love that when you first watch this as a young man it feels like a call to step outside and go into the wild to test the might of your spirit, but when you get older you realize that is about going back to people and the ones you love, even if they have flaws and hurt you, is better to live with them that alone in the open.
Te entiendo, vi la pelicula hace unos dias, y me hace pensar en muchas cosas sobre la vida. Gran pelicula, mejor historia y enorme persona Cris 😢❤ Descanse en paz
No one can live away from others that's again the nature..need to be strong and the pay somtimes is very expensive that's the greatest road..to be great mean to be different
Watched this movie in 2009 and then numerous time after that. Read a book it was based on by Jon Krakauer. Easily my favourite nonfiction story. Had a great impact on my life!
I would have loved for Christoher to have survived his ordeal/experience in the wild! I do believe he would have done things a little bit differently. God rest his soul🙏🏽😢
Happinnes can be experienced when you are alone with yourself❤, I'm not saying you should live all by yourself, but I understand why he wrote that, he must have felt very sad that he could not share with someone all the beautiful things he saw and experienced 😢
I just rewatched that movie yesterday! The first time was when my 34 year old son Josh was home sick from in high school. We both watched it together! It is a special memory to this day! ❤
It's not fair,,why his life end like that,,I cried a lot for him,,, though finally he found the truth but he died with regrets after realising the truth,,,he deserved more happiness,,why end like that,,I wish no one had a death like him,,, people can't live alone,, happiness is real when it is shared indeed,,,,,I just wish that Alexander Supertramp may rest in peace 😔❤️
I would be happy if I lived the life he lived. No regrets . He went out and tried something against the grain and it was wholesome and innocent. Dying alone does not mean dying unhappy in my personal opinion.
So here is the answer ,dont quit the material world permanently, be a traveller between nature and materialistic world. Spend time accordingly means live where you like to live at the point of that time.
I know what hell looks like, I've touched the walls there, I've seen the attacks of those dark thoughts spoken by the Inner Bitch But now I am free, I have come out of there to my old world where I am happy and can fulfill my dreams.
My heart and mind always felt this way but was never strong enough to go for it,regrets are plentiful..But I love Chris story it is sad but beautiful..Love and peace to all!!🙏🙏
The story of Chris has touched so many people around the world. I’ve been there in the same place. He tried. Not Many do. May he live forever in the hearts of every explorer. ❤️🌸
Tin Hines I know how you feel, my biggest regret in life is not travelling, and living life to the full, now I'm 60, the regret is hard to deal with sometimes, I only hope I have enough time to make up for it,as I write this I have a signed copy of Jon Krakauer,s book on the mantel above the fire.
He went to find a heaven on Earth. He found Heaven. But had to go through hell first. We all want to find it. And we will someday. We will all someday meet him. Fly with the angels my friend. You found the peace you desperately needed. Heaven would be a place he’s searched for. No politics, no systems banning us from living to our full potential. Cuz Earth ain’t it!
@@disf5178 die like him means not the starvation !! But the all experience he had ! The fun , the maturity by travelling, the destination, the people All that !!
Very sad story. Like a long suicide really 😢. Some things seemed too grand to be true as well. Kayaking the Grand Canyon with no white water experience and killing a moose with a 22 just isn’t believable. It seems like he wanted more out of life than what he imagined was ahead of him and I credit him for trying to change that. This story is a great example why therapy is so important. Especially for introverts who go unnoticed by those around them. RIP 😔
I understand both points of views on what he did but u have to look at it like this , he definitely didn't cheat or did what he did with the help of anything anyone else would cling on to & yes it was stupid because it costed him his life in the end but he actually did it just like anyone would back in the day before technology existed so he's a legend just for that reason regardless because everyone else would have cheated especially the smart ppl that knew the terrain!!!! Sounds weird & stupid but he actually did it the way nature intended unlike everyone else even if it costed him his life ❤
Graças a esse filme ja percorri 11 estados do brasil pegando carona sem grana e aproveitando a liberdade. Faltam 16 Estados ainda. Kkkk aventuras sempre...
Very true from the author of the diary of a drifter by Steven roof i walked across America 16 times on foot with no money just a wild edible plant book and dedicated my book to Chris mecandless and to all the men and women that died on the road trying to live free Please Google my book 📖 rest in peace chris all my love and respect sincerely Steven roof 💖 🙏im going to Alaska to bus 142 next month to pay my respects 🙏i would travel with the into the wild movie and book 📖 in my back pack
Why so many are inspired by a man who threw his life away I’ll never understand. He went into the Alaskan wilderness unprepared and filled with hubris and ended up dying young , alone and suffering. His life should serve as a cautionary tale instead of something to be emulated.
But you learn big things like that by doing big things like he did. A good man. Tried to figure shit out on his own. Hard to do in this world. He tried.
There is some connection between Chris and Timothy Treadwell the Grizzly Man. They both have a wildlife existence, they both died in Alaska and Chris died inside bus 142 While Treadwell died eaten by bear 141...
This is one of my favourite story, what can i understand, he kida not happy with his parents hence the journey. Currently i am in that kind of situation, should i make a journey like him?
"Há dois anos, ele andou na terra, sem celular,sem bichos,sem piscina,sem cigarros.... Liberdade total...Um extremista, um esteta viajante cujo o lar é a estrada'.
