Glad to see you carrying on Ric's work. His channel is one-of-a-kind. Even among a bunch of similar channels, Ric's stood out as the work of a craftsman and lover of nature's beauty and power. He is greatly missed.
It is hard to express how deeply Ric's work affected me. I only knew him from his videos, his passing filled me with sorrow. I am glad his friends and loved ones can carry on in his memory. I like to imagine him still in a forest, near his camp, calmly painting. Peace and loved to you all.
Much respect to you Tobben. This channel has brought my wife and I so much joy -- we watch it every morning while drinking coffee. We're grateful for you to continue honoring Ric's legacy with new content.
It's a great pleasure for me personally to see Ric's channel revived. Ric has been with me for years and has guided me in bushcrafting to the point of starting my own bushcraft channel and reaching out to others in this way. I am very happy and send many greetings from Germany! 🌲🪓
This man touched me deep within my soul. His love and knowledge of our natural world was endless. My heart goes out to his family and friends. Ric, you are the modern day Bushcraft goat.
Thank you for following Ric's wishes. He touched many people through his videos I am currently one if them I found so much joy and relaxation and skills watching.
Thank you so much my husband and I LOVED Ric’s videos.. We were both so sad when he passed... Thank you for carrying on we will certainly enjoy watching! :)
I miss him, so... He left a wonderful legacy, and I've been rediscovering his many videos. I was watching the sunset across the open fields one evening, the sky was amazing. I thought "Ric's painted a beautiful sunset". I truly believe we go on... God bless him, his wife, family, friends & fans xx
I always came to this channel when I was feeling ill and it helped me get through. His legacy now carries on with you. Please keep the channel going. It's much appreciated. Thank you and thank you Ric RIP.
I cried the day when I received the new that our beloved friend Ric died. He was my favourite. Glad to see you carrying on his legacy. Ric is honoured as you are a great friend. We all are with you. R.I.P RIC
Thank you for keeping this channel alive, although I rarely watch outdoors camping vids anymore, I always remember this channel fondly (especially his winter camping or when it's raining). I understand that you have big shoes to fill and there's going to be changes one way or another but I believe you can do it, love from Indonesia ❣
We’re extremely grateful for your continuing Ric’s legacy. In the same vein, I know many here on the channel will be enlightened by your own ingenuity in bushcrafting in episodes to come. Thank you very much!
Thank you, Tobben, for continuing Ric's channel. I was shocked and saddened by his untimely passing. I grew up in the outdoors and really enjoyed his videos, and I am sure I will enjoy yours. I wish you the best of luck with the channel and I will continue to watch your channel.
I watched the first video of Ric about a week or so ago. At first disappointed that he did not say anything. But in just a few minutes i realized he did not need to. His skilled actions and the camera more than told the story. Just found out this morning that he passed away this past January. It has saddened my heart. I will watch more of his videos and watch, at least, some of yours. Keep up the good work.
Coming from someone who just lost a family member I can tell you that you need to keep moving forward. You make amazing videos and should be energized and inspired to carry on in their name. My deepest sympathy goes out to you...
I probably started following Mr Ric a year or so before he passed. He always delivered with his content. It was sad to learn about his passing but I hope he lives on thru you, Mr Tobban. Thanks, sir. Rest well Ric.
Ive missed Ric's channel. Thats why once in a while i came back to his page. I highly recommended this to my husband as we love camping so much!!! His videos is entertaining and very calming. ♥️
I am so glad to see your video and message. It was Ric's art 🎨 that first pulled me in and I quickly grew to love all his content. It brought such sadness to see this amazing human had passed. I am glad that his legacy will continue through his friend and family.
Condolence to the whole family. Thank you for continuing his legacy. He is my favorite RU-vidr when it comes to camping. His methods are very unique and signs of being smart. I miss Ric. I know he is proud and happy for you.
I can't imagine how hard this must be, such a loss, such a responsibility and such a treasure to carry forward. Wishing you both all the very best. He's missed. But the journey goes on... Thank you.
I was so excited to see the new video update, really! Thank you so much for this channel to continue and somehow continue ric's spirit and sharing, I couldn't be happier, I've learned a lot from this channel to think from a natural perspective. May ric be in heaven, great forever.
Thank you for continuing to deliver. I love all the cooking, music, painting and sculpture he does. The images and compositions are beautiful. I am still healing by watching the past videos over and over again. Please continue his intention and deliver even better videos with new elements. I support you from Japan. From automatic translation
These videos have always brought such joy to myself and my daughter, we were and still are avid watchers 🤍 Ric's work and dedication deeply touched us 🕊️
Thank you for all the peace, happiness and enjoyment you brought to so many people including myself. RIP Ric, you were a very cool guy. Looking forward to many more videos, Tobben! You're makingRic very proud!☺️ Thank you!
Thank you for keeping this channel going. My wife and I really enjoyed Ric's videos, and I always looked forward for his next videos. He had a great art at making his paintings in the woods. He made cooking in the woods look easy, his meals he made was more than just a simple meal, his meals was aw-sum. He loved animals and treated them with care. I never personally met or knew him, He was a man that I admired for what he did. Thank you, with kind regards.
Tobben, I'm glad you took the time needed to mourn Ric's passing. He was an amazing person, we all knew that from his videos. They taught me so much with barely a word. It's good to see his Legacy carried on. Wishing you all the best.
I think we all agree those are some big boots to fill…so glad you’ve taken it on! The man was a treasure, I hope you have fun filling the void and we will all certainly watch and enjoy.
Hi! Nagualero Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful videos. You give all the magic back to us. I really feel like I am in the woods to when I watch them. Greetings from Indonesia!
A notification popped up on my screen earlier today - I was filled with excitement, because it was a Nagualero video - and they are my favourites. Late this evening, I clicked on the notification and settled in with my partner to witness another of Ric's adventures into the wilderness. But it was not to be. I am overcome with a sense of loss and grief that I have not felt for many years - I feel that a friend has died. Though I did not know the man personally - perhaps I did, in a way. I offer my deepest heartfelt condolences to those closest to Ric, and furthermore I would like to extend those condolences to the members of Nagualero's audience, who - like myself - have been both impressed and inspired by his skills in the fields of bushcraft and artistry, and his innate respect for mother earth. Ric's content, I believe, reflected the stoicism and sensitivity of the man himself - our world is at a loss without his presence. I will remain a loyal subscriber to Ric's channel as long as the content created remains loyal to his ethos. Rest in peace, Nagualero; may the wind blow warm on your back and fill your sails in Valhalla.
What a comfort to know his channel will be continued! I kept my subscription because it makes it seem like he’s still with us. His singular content is nowhere else. My sympathies to all of his loved ones.
I am watching Ric from the starting of the channel and I really like his work on videos and painting. I hope he rest in peace. I used to wonder why he didn't post any videos now a days but after reading this .... I have no words to write.
Hello Lisa and Tobben! I'm so happy and beyond grateful to see you both carrying on Ric's legacy in such an extraordinarily refreshing way. This is also a great opportunity for us to meet a friend of Ric's who shares a similar mindset and relationship with mother nature. A friend who, in Ric's eyes, is worthy of keeping this unique journey alive and thriving. I look forward to new adventures with Tobben, always with our gentle giant Ric on my mind, looking down and smiling while sipping some chaga tea. Every second there is a sunrise somewhere on Mama Earth. With great respect and lots of love from Germany. Tommy
Somewhere I read: "People come and go in our lives. But they never go alone, they always take a little bit of us and leave a little bit of themselves." And Ric with all the passion and love he had for life, arts and nature left a good seed planted in many hearts. I'm glad the channel continues! Big hug Tobben! ✌️🇧🇷
I told so many people about “Nagulero” and he inspired me so much. I always wanted to buy one of those flutes he would play in one of his videos and I tried to visit his website again and I didn’t see it anywhere. Miss you Nagulero - sending love and prayers
Sincerely appreciate you continuing the amazing work of our beloved friend Ric! I had the honor of purchasing one of his last original paintings and would love to support Lisa and purchase more if available. All the best to everyone who was inspired by this amazing man and spirit!
Oh no , this is really sad . His videos have served like a warm blanket in my months of bad times. I am very deeply sorry for your loss . Om Shanthi. Thank you brother for keeping his channel going with your work. I am truly humbled and thankful
Thank you for being the sort of friend that could honour him and the legacy of his channel; this channel brings us all together, it binds us. It still seems far too surreal that he is gone.
God Bless you man. Thank you so much to keep the legacy on…. I loved his channel…. He was one of a kind and I cried like mad when I heard the bad news, even though I didn’t know the man personally. Wish you all the best, I’ll do anything to support you in your beautiful journey 🥲
Like when I watched Ric I always wondered what practical item will come out of what I watching. Good luck with your endeavors. I know Ric would be pleased. John USA
Thankyou so much for keeping Rics memories alive in your new and future videos x I really enjoyed watching his bushcraft skills and the peace and tranquility of his travels, also his fantastic artwork!! I had the priviledge of contacting him online and he reassured me to not be afraid to venture into nature alone! much appreciated what you are doing in memory of Ric! Thankyou so much!!
We all miss Ric hugely and glad to see his community still continues with his ideas and love of the outdoors. His legacy will always be in our hearts and minds. He will always inspire me to get out there and his work brings happiness to many many people from all over the world. What more can I say...thank you .
I would like to share my heart felt condolences to the family and friends of Ric. I began watching his videos about a year or two ago and had only watched the longer trip videos where he doesn’t talk. I really enjoyed watching him work and paint. I just recently started watching his older content and went through the Tipi diaries and Ric was an amazing individual. I wish I could have know him personally. He was and still is an inspiration and I look forward to seeing the channel continue. I plan to with my children begin working on bush craft skills and would like to also paint and draw in a similar fashion. Ric said in a video that you can’t get experience by just watching RU-vid. You have to get out and practice. He was right but he left a treasure of knowledge for even a beginner to use to learn and grow. I did not know Ric but I will miss his person content but look forward to watching the channel continue and grow. My heart goes out to his wife and family. My God comfort you and keep you and his face shine upon you.
I've been a subscriber of NAGUALERO for about 6 years now, and since I found Ric's channel, I always enjoyed and admired his videos. Today, I remembered NAGUALERO and came to his channel, only to know he has passed away. I cried and are very sad. My condolences to Ric's wife Lisa and all his family and friends, especially to Tobben for keeping NAGUALERO's memory and work alive. I'll continue supporting this channel, and I'm sure you will be doing wonderful works for Ric's memory. October 26, 2022 Much love from Newnan, Georgia, USA.
I just want to say that I am looking forward to the new content you will be uploading. I can only imagine how difficult it has been for you all. Thank you for this video. ❤️
This is great news! It diminishes a little the longing we feel for Ric and his videos, for the magical atmosphere of intimate contact with nature. As we say here in Brazil, we share the same bonfire, even though we are many kilometers away. A fraternal hug from Brazil
I just thought of you and came to ur channel to see a new video!! Divine intervention. Miss you Ric. Extremely happy to see you here Tobben. You have my support!
It's wonderful to see this. I watched Ric's stuff a lot. After he died I re-watched the Tipi diaries which I love. I always felt they ended abruptly, and meant to ask but by the time I thought to do so he'd passed away. If when you're going through the raw footage there's material on the last weeks and days of the Tipi camp that would be awesome to see. Would love to know how the story ended! Thank you so much for keeping the channel going with new material and for undertaking to go through the old material.
Even though I never met him in my life his videos get me going and made me pull through hard times and let me fell asleep. It pains me to write this but I am sincerely sorry for that I could not help him the same way he helped me. May he rests in peace. My deepest condolences.
