Survivorman | Bigfoot | Klemtu, British Columbia | Director's Commentary | Les Stroud 

Les - your survivor series is what made me a fan of your work. Your Bigfoot series took it to the next level for me! I love these episodes! By far my favorite!

Les has a way of making you feel as though your with him through each episode. He's better than anyone I've seen at this so many times I've felt as if I was sitting there and he was talking to me.

please tell us that you are going to do more investigations on this subject like this one. I enjoy this so much a lot of people respect you you are perfect for this. always hated to hear the ending music because I knew it was over. exciting stuff for sure!

This man is a legend, searching for another legend. Amazing!!!

The sea Lion skeleton looks like a Sasquatch decorated his den with his favorite catch.

No lie, your series is what brought the sasquatch phenomenon to my attention and really made me fall in love with the phenomenon and the history around it. So thank you Les, for helping me find one of the most interesting mysteries and helping me learn more about it

Loved the 'Survivor Man' series - and this series is wonderful, as well. Having spent a ton of time in the backcountry throughout my life I've had some interesting 'experiences' as well. One of the creepiest was 'hyena-like laughter' echoing in a remote bowl up around Mt. Massive, here in Colorado. That'll make the hair stand on end and freeze your blood, cold. One item to note, when the air feels heavy...no birds, no insects, no animals - the usually vibrant sounds of a forest become oppressively silent? Especially at night - when that happens, dial up your focus and attention because you may be close to having a truly unexplainable event, yourself.

As someone who's always hungry for more survivorman content--these directors commentaries are such a great way to revisit the classics. Thank you!

Would really like to see you and Dave Paulides team up again on a program about strange bush encounters

This episode is quite probably one of the best in this particular series. Well produced; excellent audio support and of course, Les himself giving insight and anecdotes to enhance the experience. Thanks for the Director's Cut. I for one am looking forward to your further explorations of this subject.

Never get tired of watching this episodes over and over on Prime Amazon!!! Always keeping it real. Thank you. Les Stroud.

I love how you have such respect for native people, not only here in Canada but all around the world.

A great topic to focus on Les ... loved every minute of it. I like listening to what the native Americans have to say about Bigfoot. They've been living with it for many more years. I to believe that it has to be more human than ape. It's footprints look more human than apes. Apes have hand-like feet, and humans don't. Keep up the great work.

Les you make some of the best content out. You will be remembered for a very very long time for all the fantastic work you’ve done. Thank you

I want to share that you are my favorite in approach to the Bigfoot phenomena. I can never get enough. My other favorite is Jeff Meldrum. Most others sensationalize too much.

I love the sasquatch series, you really hit a home run again. When I was in Highschool and lived in a hayloft apartment above a milking parlor with no cable T.v. I used to have my grandpa record Survivor man to v.h.s. and bring it to me to watch. I could hardly wait for the next episode to come out. Thanks Les for years of entertainment and lessons

Can't wait for more of these. I'd love to sit down and swap stories with Les.

These Survivorman Commentaries are film makers gold. As a film maker I have learned so much from these shows.

You really have the gift of storytelling. I love documentary films and these Bigfoot ones you've made are very compelling. I can watch them over and over. You've really mastered every element of the craft. I hope you keep making them. I can't wait for the next one.

I have watched this series without the directors commentary 3 times and I'm enjoying it with the commentary, This series has opened my eyes up more to the possibility of it being a real thing and I thank you for that and hope to see more from you about it. Both series really draw you in it seems top be perfect I wouldn't change a thing... GREAT SERIES OF VIDEOS......Thank you again...

Thanks again for some more great content Les, always much appreciated! Can't wait to see more from you, keep living your best life and I'll always be here to support.

You hit it on the head Les , its Respect ! Not only with the people in the villages , with the forest people , hairy man , sabe , masters of energy they are young jedi ! Interdimesional spirtual being , ancient humans !

I did enjoy it. Thank you. And thank you for all of survivorman. I really enjoyed watching it during my youth I've always been an outdoorsman and hunter and it was refreshing to watch a guy like me. It was the end of an era right as"reality tv" was talking over to see something raw and real. Thank you again.

Les you’re the best been watching you for 23 years!

That "raven" was actually a steller's jay. One of my favorite PNW birds. They are very inquisitive, social, and intelligent and are very fun to watch.

You're a legend, Les. One of the few Canadians we can be proud of. Much respect and keep it up.

The wood knocking. Many years ago when we had one around here , including my woods. I had no idea what was doing the strange things that summer and i did not even know about wood knocking. But that year i went looking for poachers several times and never found anything. That wood knocking was more like hunters do driving deer. It is a steady knocking and it continues multiple times over and over.

The Bigfoot series is my favorite of them all. I am fascinated by this phenomenon and absolutely love the episodes that make me think about stuff in a different way.

I would love to hear an evening of your strange experiences. Break them into a bunch of small excerpts. I love both Survivorman and Survivorman Bigfoot, but Bigfoot tops the list as my all-time favorite. I can't wait to see more. Thank you Les. Keep on gettin' out there and bring us with you.

Love this show. Greets from Brasil.

Something about the Klemtu BC episode that made me love this one the best. During the entire episode it just felt like a Sasquatch was going to walk out of the woods at any moment you were filming.

I REALLY ENJOYING WATCHING ALL YOUR SEASON FROM START TO FINISH. IT FELT LIKE I WAS THERE WITH YOU, THEN YOU COME OUT WITH THIS WELL I'M SITING HERE WATCHING ONCE AGAIN. THANK YOU MY FRIEND

Look at those trees! Sasquatch could watch you for hours and you’ll be none the wiser 😉. You have been so close to them and they still evade cameras and our modern tech. Amazing creatures!

I’am watching Sir Mr.Les Stroud Legend !❤❤❤❤

2 hours almost 6k view's! Who dosent like the Sasquatch!

Survivorman baby! woooooooooooo Les, thanks for starting this channel!

Love that whole series and these as well. Keep diving into the subject. U will be surprised at what u find. Keep it going man!!

I realllllly appreciate how Survivorman Bigfoot doesn't use music and sound effects when he's out there trying to find evidence. That's the dumbest thing about the other bigfoot shows..and they all do it.

Hi I have watch your adventures for maybe 15 years now i think? Im still have same Humble feeling ewvry time i see your shows, even to this Day Thanks for sharing your knowlege All these years Best regards

I find this stuff so interesting

Beat Bigfoot series I’ve ever seen. Well done, Les.

You notice that the Patterson footage (assuming it wasn't just a guy in a suit) was filmed with an old reel film camera; Purely mechanical, no electronics to malfunction. Perhaps it's time for researchers to go low-tech again.

The amount of wilderness there is unbelievable, this was a great perspective on the show

My Friday night is gonna be sweet mate! Cheers Les!

Awesome video.Thanks.From Indianapolis,Indiana. Indiana,Bigfoot!

Thanks Les! Long awaited Sasquatch re-visit...love it! I have to know, on your last episode of your last Bigfoot series (hidden world of Bigfoot) you heard an amazing vocal(scream like). What was that like? Did it rock you? From this side of the camera, it seemed chilling! Can you give us a few more words to what you experienced that night?

I also recommend his music. The way he incorporates messages (often important messages about the planet and ways we can help) with a beautiful bluesy sound is really great and very cool!

Hi Les, George here. A friend of mine once said " Sesquatch are blurry creatures, thats why good pictures of them are blurry" . Well, I think one possible answer to their cloak of blurr, is that they may be able to use a spiritual cloaking of "our " minds. Just as we do not actually see what is there, rather we create an image from the light that bounces off of a solid thing that then illuminates nerves in our eyes and mind, that then create a thought of what it is that is fairly accurate but always a few seconds behind reality, I think our Bigfoot neighbors in the forests, make our minds not see them. ok...I will sit back and enjoy the rest of your great video. Have a good evening. George.

Man I love these shows Les!....i loved all the shows you've done in the past, but the sasquatch shows are awesome...so fascinating....please keep on the journey sir ....and ill be honored to watch!.....nice fender in the background!....

Nice. I know where a bigfoot lives, but I'd be called crazy, or a nut job... Sad, this is an old story. Older people get called crazy... Why take a picture? I seen it... I'll never forget it. Why would I care if you believe me?

Laurel Lake deep down in Kentucky last June. Same thing happened to us while on a boat Fishing. Talk about SPOOKED LOL.

I love your approach to this subject. Curious, respectful, intelligent, open-minded. Another season!!

I know that scream, I’ve heard it out camping alone with my dog on the Big Su River up here in Alaska. I grabbed my gun & yelled if they needed help and headed for the boat to cross the river & realized real quick the screaming stopped. Something crossed the river that night...and my dog and I were never the same again. I know for a fact they exist 👀but I still enjoy doing Bigfoot Hunter satire.

For whatever reason, my FAVORITE Les quote is. 'Here Comes The Rain" lol

Mokele-mbembe, Mr. Stroud, Mokele-mbembe.

These director commentaries are some of your best, keep it up Les I know it can't be easy.

Les Stroud is the man!

Great Director's Cut .Thanks Les.👍✌

Was watching this fire side at the cabin about 2am. Never in my life have I been so scared by a noise from the woods

I loved the Bigfoot series you did. I am so happy you did this one. Great job Les. Please keep them coming.

Im an Electronic Engineering hobbyist enthusiast. An electronic device will malfunction if there is a magnetic pulse or frequency cancelling out or disrupting the Proximity Bubble Radiation field of the Camera. It's common knowledge amongst Electronic Engineers. Talk to an Electronic Engineer that will explain the cause of electronic malfunction. Keep up the great work your videos are awesome!

I've always Loved watching Survivorman! But when you started the Bigfoot Survivorman I absolutely loved it! Now this RU-vid channel and is my ultimate favorite! Thank You Les.

Shame that you didn't show that tree that was thrown into the water. I'm a Survivorman fan and never really cared much for this series, but great commentary as always!

The drumming is incredible, my nephew drums and sings for our tribe, the last time I heard it was at my brothers funeral.

I LOVE watching Survivorman WITH Survivorman!

Love ya les. Out of focus or not. I love how you keep it freaking real that's what keeps me watching buddy!!!!!

I would very much like to go on an expedition like this with Les. 💯

Your personal development was the most interesting part of this journey

Raccoons scream when they fight.. it was one of the most terrifying, hair raising sounds I've ever heard. It sounds just like Les described.

Was going to say something... then you said the gifting went to the local sasquatch. Also, it's hilarious on SMTV how many times you have the kindness to remind folks that "this channel is the director's commentary" on a survivalist channel with all the other layers. Like... dude (sir/Les) they will ebb and flow like the tide, save yourself sometimes.

REAL QUICK THOUGHT..... Does anyone feel these California wildfires seriously effect these beings???? Been thinking about it lately

You do a very good job. Love to see any show you do.

I love this episode. So much going on. Well produced. Thanks to Les and team.

I am very excited to watch the rest of the episodes with commentary. This was great! Thanks!

21:42 ... 'The Options' ... (1) mistaken identification, (2) delusional perception, (3) deliberate misrepresentation, (4) factual representation [or accurate observation] ... I would also include (5) personal [deep-rooted] obsession ... I would tend to put Todd Standing in this category.

Les is the man! Perhaps more surprising than the bigfoot investigation is Les has a land line lol

I think I'm your biggest fan. Lol. I watch every single thing you ever put out. Les, I'd love to crack a beer with you sometime. ✌️🍺

Appreciate your series Les 👍👍👍a fan coming from Dallas, TX

Great commentary! I’ve been watching you since day one keep up the great work ! I always enjoy watching these commentaries and seeing your side of the show and how they were filmed etc.. I live here in Newfoundland and believe it or not there have been sightings here also over the years . Like you I don’t disbelieve or believe but I do believe we will see the truth on what’s out there in our life time. Take care and keep the shows coming !

More of these please!! Your Bigfoot journey is amazing and I feel like I'm going on it with you through these videos.

You had me at "I'm boring my dog". 😆

I live in the deep woods of northeast texas along the Oklahoma border there real

AWESOME SIR.. THANKS... FROM SOUTH LOUISIANA... WOOD BOOGER...

Hi Les, I live on the 37th parallel in the middle of the country (Ozark) and have seen and encountered things I cant explain. I would love it if you could DM me your email address or something so I can share with you in detail and get your veiw on the situation. Thanks ..hopefully you see this

I'm on day....8 of a Survivorman youtube channel binge and it just gets better and better! I'm getting obsessed at this point. I just realized that I've been watching Survivorman on tv for over 20 years now!?!?! Survivormans more poignant than the crocodile hunter was to me growing up at this point and if you knew me ...that says A LOT! Legends NEVER DIE!🐊🕷🦇🌵🔥🌎🌍🌏🪵🌞🦧

"you dont just stumble on predator bones" later that episode stumbles on a seal spine

Really great episode. love your work all the way from Latvia

I really like these episodes with commentary.

One time heard sounds I couldn't understand while camping in northern Iowa, found out later there was a hog confinement not far away ... not saying that's what it was, but there's some scary sounds coming from those places as they jostle to get along. The sound I heard was much more like a howl or a woman's scream but so far away .... but hadn't sounded like any coyotes I've heard before, but coyotes seem to have a weird range of sounds too. If it hadn't been so far away, I would have thought it was cats (mating/fighting) but the sound carried so far it couldn't have been cats .... I have never heard that sound again myself, but a couple of these shows have come close to what I heard when they record it. Love your commentary!

Nice video. RE: the Sea Lion skeleton on the beach - I'm not a marine biologist, but close enough. I have no idea if somebody postulated an answer on your question and I have no time to read all the comments. I did grow up on Puget Sound which is remarkably similar to that area in question. I believe the answer is that the Sea Lion crawled up on the shore and died. PNW crabs are remarkably capable of eating every bit of meat off a skeleton (or nearly every bit). Similarly, terrestrial bugs like Sow Bugs / Rollie Pollies and beetles will clean bones in Summer in very short order. That is how Taxidermists clean deer/elk skulls for Euro mounts. I believe it is a fairly recent death since the ligaments are still keeping the vertebrae together. Otherwise, it would disarticulate and fall willy nilly down the bank.

I've heard he's been trained to ignore pain. To Ignore the weather. To live off the land. To eat things that would make a billigoat puke. "Coloner Samuel Troutman"

But aside from what I said thanks for all the free extra content and filling in some of the gaps. Much appreciated.

If you made another series where you talked with tribes about what they believe and the stories they have id totally watch that. Is this something you'd consider?

Watched this again n watched the original a couple times as well!! U can do these n we would watch watch watch!!!! Obsessed by ur Sasquatch series!!!

Les is a legend

The fact that you have a house phone makes me appreciate you even more

Thank you Les for your research you have done. You have done an awesome job. My husband and I watch all of these. Northern Idaho has had sightings here. I have had two myself. I have been hearing stories since I was a child here from family and locals. And then I saw one when I was 11. They are fascinating. Thanks again for all of your hard work.

Les. The ringer issue is solved by changing your phones ring count. Most probably by contacting your phone company. Or checking the info from manufacturer sometimes thats a setting on the phone

I really enjoyed this episode. I like the atmosphere you created by inviting us into your home, sitting on your couch and having a beer (looked like guinness), it felt like I was hanging out with a buddy. I wish you had set up a regular video camera (i.e. one that isn't triggered by a motion sensor) on that second day when the apple and the sandwich were taken. Also, since you were able to successfully repeat the apple experiment 2 days in a row it would have been nice to see you stay another day or at least come back a few days later to try it again with a camera set up that would give a better chance of capturing what is taking those apples. My comments aren't meant to detract from this awesome episode, I'm just a fan who would love to see some of these little mysteries answered. Hope you revisit this location and keep cranking out these videos!

Would love to know where in Ontario that track you showed came from! Your treatment of the sasquatch phenomenon is the only mainstream one that I've respected and appreciated. Sincerely appreciate both your work on this topic and the directors commentaries. Thanks for this!
