Survival video gone wrong

[TaperPin]

This is exactly why I suggest practicing survival skills near a vehicle in case things don’t go as planned. Poor kid.

Didn’t adhere to the Boy Scout motto.

Will never know what happened out there, buy it sounds like he didn't have experience enough to try what he was attempting. Such is life.

I believe this takes the cake for irony, and special mention on the Darwin Awards.

Poor kid. I won’t get too judgy because I can think of a number of times as a young man when I narrowly avoided a Darwin Award myself.

It is sad. A young man lost his life but was doing what he enjoyed. He miscalculated his abilities or fell (the broken nose) and could not self evacuate. We all took chances and survived similar incidents whether it be hiking, driving cars too fast, or any number of adrenalin inducing hobbies. My vice was motorcycles, both MX and crotch rockets. RIP.

I posted this comment on the Youtube video:
On one hand I commend the young man for being real. Some Youtube content providers have been known to cheat and not really stay out in their camp all night. This guy was not a faker. He was the real deal. On the other hand, he did not seem to have an escape plan if something went wrong. I call it Plan B. I have had stuff go wrong out in the woods several times in my 61 years but thankfully I have always had a backup plan (except once and I was lucky then). He seemed like a courageous young man. I weep for his family. So sorry for their loss.

It should go without saying that the first time you tell people where you are shouldn't be in the middle of an emergency.

The average person driving down the highway is a woke idiot
During the 2021 snowstorm on I-10 which was shutdown
I was shocked by how stupid people were when traveling during the winter
No emergency supplies like a blanket, water , food, candles,
Just folks who decided to plow through snow till They lost control and wrecked
Or got stuck on the interstate
We found hundreds of people freezing with empty gas tanks and no cell service, no emergency Equipment , luckily we could save their ass’s before they died

That “ STORM “ guy who died was a idiot that didn’t even have a tent only a tarp shelter and no sleeping bag, extreme camping for YouTube hits
Is asking for trouble, seems some of them are looking for $$$
