This is the final season of Survivorman. Although it was the weakest of the three, it was still satisfying. I hope Les Stroud continues in his public teaching. His personality is superlative and I hold him in high esteem.

Les Stroud is an expert in wilderness survival. His movies have helped me know my surroundings and know what I should know about survival. His seasons are both informational and entertaining and will also help you when you are camping or in emergencies.

Season 3 is the final season of an excellent TV series. Les has always been informative, but this past season he takes it to another level. Now more than ever, Les places himself in scenarios that his audience may more likely personally encounter. He teaches us what to if we find ourselves as a lost hiker or as a lost hunter, and more. It's a shame that there are only six episodes this time around, but I do not blame him. These survival experiences are legitimate unlike some other reality show entertainers.

As a bonus, the DVD does include a special 40 minute Les Stroud production entitled Surviving Urban Disasters.

How can you go wrong. If you have any doubts go to YOUTUBE and look for a 4 part series called Snowshoes and Solitude. Kinda the precurser to Survivorman. The stuff this guys will do is amazing. Warning don't watch if you have a weak stomach as some of the stuff he does and eats gets pretty gross.

Me and my friends, X and Ken, have watched every episode of Survivorman. We wanted to be Survivorman so much that we formed a club called Survivormen. We are now climbing the 10 highest peaks in the Catskill Mountains. So far, we have climbed the top six peaks. We don't make a fire with our hands, eat worms and grasshoppers, or build a shelter with twigs and leaves. But Les is our inspiration. So when we reach the top of each mountain, we toast him and ourselves with Bailey's Irish Cream, eat beef jerky and candy bars, and find a stone to keep as a remembrance. Then we climb down and go to the same restaurant where we eat like Baptists and get drunk. We are following in Survivorman's footsteps, more or Les.

I received this DVD on time from Amazon. It was in plastic wrapped and sealed. This DVD is great! I love all the advise I get from watching Les in the woods. The "Deep Woods" episode where Les takes a hunting buddie out with him is my favorite. They hunt, survive and even do a short harmonica duet.

Survivorman Season 3 is the final season, with six episodes and one bonus feature. I found the episodes pretty interesting, from the Arctic Tundra to the Australian Outback. In the episode about the Colorado Rockies Les even has to take care of two horses. In Deep Woods he, and a friend, show you what to do if you get lost while hunting. And of course, they also show you what not to do, but that's the fun of watching Survivorman. The bonus is about Urban Disasters, in this case how to survive in a car, at home, or at your place of business if there is a flood. He deals with such issues as losing power, keeping warm, getting clean water and so on. I wish there were more DVDs, but I think his show has done a good job of covering most of the bases.
Now, what do you do if you get lost in New York City? We'll never know.

I got these videos as a Christmas present for my husband and he loves them! We have both watched all three seasons. There is a lot of good information for outdoor people on surviving in harsh conditions or when they have gotten lost on hunting, camping and hiking trips. It is also well filmed, so even if you're not into the outdoors you get to see some beautiful landscapes all over the world.

This is a great series and the production is pretty cool as well. It is filmed by Les Stroud and he is on his own most of the time so he is the crew and the teacher all while he is trying to survive for 7 days on his own.
this is a great gift for the outdoor types.

I really enjoy all of the Survivorman episodes. This is an excellent series for those who enjoy the outdoors.
