Survivorman | Grenada Island

I enjoy the Survivorman series. I will tell you a funny story before you watch the video below. Les wanted to do a survival series with Sasquatch Chronicles.

I told Les “If I was in a real survival situation there is no one else I would want to be with me. A survival situation for the camera sounds like a terrible time. Ill end up in the fetal position, while you stand over me explaining how its ok to drink my own pee. I don’t want to eat bugs or random carcasses we come upon.” He was laughing the whole time but I have seen the show, I know how it goes down. I would survive with Bear Grylls. I heard he stays in a hotel when he is not filming. That sounds more like something I would like…haha

Les journeys to an active volcano chain found in the Grenadine Islands deep in the heart of the Caribbean Sea. Stranding himself on an uninhabited island called Frigate, Les is left to survive on his own. Discovered by Columbus in 1498, the island has remained untouched by civilization for centuries largely due to the fierce waves that pummel its craggy shores. Scouring the shoreline for edible marine life, Les must work to secure freshwater, build shelter and make fire. While being stranded on a Caribbean island may sound inviting, it is in reality incredibly difficult. Les is forced to eat prickly pear cactus, hunt for bird eggs and even contemplates trapping one of the thousands of turtles that occupy the island. When it comes to survival islands, the island of Frigate offers what all islands do: isolation…of your body, your mind and your spirit. Time away can be a good thing, but this is no vacation.

    Well now, I think, that’s why we love you Wes… you’re real and not afraid to show it! I bet you’d be very grounding to Mr. Grylls. I could see y’ll talking about your real deal. He might end up in that fetal position in the hotel room after that!
