Week 1: Alone in the Wild | Channel4.com | Endurance Test

[heRidesWhiteHorse]

He needs to do it again, but this time take his girlfriend, 50 lbs rice & beans, 10 lbs peanut butter & build a bear proof shelter with logs first thing...

[heRidesWhiteHorse]

If that was me I sure wouldn't have recorded all my crying for the world to see. But there is no way I would gone for that long with out my wife by choice. We are social creatures - not meant to be alone.

Also I would have eaten every animal I came into contact with... if you think I'm just talking big... keep in mind I have eaten several racoons over the years simply because they were eating my peaches! LOL

[thumper1519]

No way! What a big city pavement pansy. Obviously left his manhood back in London.

[unclearless]

The jig is up, and I am going to tell the world! We can all Google "tasty times in the Yukon" And see the Luxury Lodge you were next to this whole series! I watched every episode, and started feeling for you until a post caught my eye. They were right! You were NEVER a few min. from help! You need to learn 6 new words "People can Google" and the next three "I'm fucking busted!" I taught my son not to lie, and people like you make me sick! I lived 5 yrs in Alaska and never cried like you! PUSSY!

[7aberraman]

ed is a great man .

[Flopgloppleful]

watch alone in the wilderness the story of Dick Poeneke he`s a real man he lived alone out there for 38 years and was already 51 years old when he started his journey into the wild

[Flopgloppleful]

build a sturdy bearproof shelter hunt trap fish and forage berrys nuts and shrooms and roots and seeds build a fish trap and if you get bored whittle or pan for gold hell its the yukon thers no end to what a skilled confident man can do out there. with no boundrys laid down by your fellow man he lacks knowledge and courage and should have stayed in bloody fuckin england and not showed the world what a misguided unknowledgeable pussy he is and hes lucky he didnt die

[nicko978]

@Flopgloppleful sounds wonderful as a youtube comment. when you do it post a vid so this guy can watch and take some pointers....

[Flopgloppleful]

this guy is out of place he should`t be out there if he has a problem killing critters no wonder he was starving. if he would have stayed another month he probably would have died or eventually been eat by the bears he keeps crying over. hes not woods wise enough to tackle real wilderness there is some of the best hunting and fishing in the world up there no competition for game or fish the fish have never seen a mans lure it wold be too easy. and as far as hunting he needs a rifle and skill

[mattysco]

what a big ole pussy. he should mushroom hunt, fish, collect edible victuals, and stop being a fucking shitface mother fuckin in gods land. god laughs at this asshole! dont be afraid to die man - u will have a better time!

[remixfulchannel]

@mattysco id like to see you survive one day in the wild.

how easy is that for you to say, your sitting comfortably by your computer in your warm house.

your the pussy. youll never get anywhere in life if you cant appreciate this extraordinary mans struggles.

[MsAldousSnow]

this is the kind of guy who never lets you break it off. ewwww



[brianski007]

This is like day 4??? Is that right...seriously???

[condorlegion89]

no hoes, warm food and laughter..

I would fucking cry like crazy..

[absorbcreate]

MAN UP FFS

[BumJuiceDrinker]

how come i can only find part one of 3, i search bittorrents but nothing so i saw the first 45 mins and now im wondering about the rest and dont want to watch it on youtube where can i find it anyone

[ozmanofpeace]

this is a perfectly natural reaction. don't slag this guy down - 99% chance you'd do the same no matter how 'tough' you think you are when YOUR IN THE SAME SITUATION. try to be more mature ppl...

[bayonetsluts]

this man is a faggot. he should eat that fly, shut the fuck up and go do something useful stupid fags.

[Brinah]

@Army1ntel Yeah I saw that..he was very resourceful too! What was his name? Oh and Les Stroud was great too; he certainly didn't cry!

[jerrygormanNO1]

all i can say is this musted of fucked him up

[Paulchac2]

"I usually try and live arhaaharaha"

[DaNiSWeSt]

@Paulchac2 looooooooooooooooool i noticed it aswell loooooooll

[condorlegion89]

@Paulchac2 **arhaaharaha*

Strange way of laughing... lol

[dialchemy]

I know why he cries, he is practically doing cold turkey from cars, TV, internet, newspapers,coffee etc. To be honest i see the human coming out of him as the tears flow. The line between what we need and what we want is blurred to many.

[ontariosurvivor]

Someone needs to make more vids like this of being in remote places surviving.minus the crying of course.I love being outdoors like this,theres nothing better than grabbing your pack and hiking miles into the middle of nowhere and being away from all the bullshit in the city.

[higzyguitarist]

i understand crying after 7weeks alone but hes been alone for a week? damn dude ide love to be left alone for a week.

[burrettbcfc]

mate its not about crying after after 1 week its a mixture of being alone and lost aswell as not being in touch with reality. its a very strainge feelin u have to expierence it to know whats goin on in his head..

[PolemicArts]

@higzyguitarist just means you don't have any family or friends. I have been spent time isolated like this, it's not easy. It's different when you are a couple miles away from somewhere your familiar with and completely alone. Anyone who thinks this guy is a panzy is retarded, plain and simple. Most people commenting on here would die if they were left in the wild for 3 months

[Sullygan]

god damn, what a kind of a pussy are u? lol. just embarrassing and ridiculous.

[treehot16]

This is pathetic..

[DRTMaverick]

Tears... it's the mushrooms man. Those weren't edible!

[saitek5678]

Ive been here, I don't remember crying, just total focus on everything. I remember moral would dip down. Then I would take a snort of Vodka and get motivated. Emotions run high, emotions I thought I never had. Words of advice ration the Vodka, fuck the food and water, it will come. Fuck the bears too, keep a 45 at your side and put the barrel on there head and sqweeze the trigger (not pull) . There, now ya got lunch for days.

[wokensoulsounds07]

this is a farce.

[jenruchito76]

hehehe good actor ! thats is embarrisng maybe that men is a gay

[justcallmesimon]

"is a gay" Oh dear me.

[TheSweaterKid]

get bent

[joetrez]

he seems like the kind of guy you just wanna slap around a little.

[joetrez]

i think your a big baby!!

[belairhotrod]

You cried soo much it came to a point that i couldnt even watch it. MAN UP!

[kraythe]

Ed, I respect your sense of adventure but you were NOT prepared for this. You didnt establish a permanent shelter, let your animal rights and pacifism get in the way of food, were too paranoid of bears and spent too much time brooding.

You treated it like an extended campout and that was your fatal downfall. Instead of treating it like a survival situation you equivocated and improvised. Using a lean-to for a shelter for 90 days is psycho. Learn some survival skills and try again.

[MrKanderson40]

take a lesson from this... you have no idea what its like to be in this situation

[longfootbuddy]

your crying cuz your a twit

[Castaril]

he is one of the bravest men alive.

[kronckjc]

Jesus, 4 minutes of cwying wike a wittle bitch. Does sombudy miss his wittle mommy???

[valdezmiguel2]

he's crying because he's a gay.

[ryko26]

Search on youtube for "Alone in The Wilderness" (not "Wild") and watch a brilliant 6 part documentary on a TRULY impressive individual (not this crying, drama-queen bore).

[ryko26]

what a fucking cock. "When I consider my situation its very upsetting" You chose to go there!

Crying because he's been away from his family for FOUR days. Utter dickhead.

[ThyUnknown]

amazing dont blame him for crying that stupid bitch below me dosnt have a clue what thats like

[ManlytearsUK]

Uneventful and boring also cried like a babe.

[etocllaalocin]

well done ed!! you did very well!!! *pats back* thumbs up :o) I wouldnt last two weeks. :oP

[bushman11865]

The lesson is dont travel alone, people need people simple. The jurney would have been better with a companion. People travel and enjoy what he is doing all the time, hunter kayakers climbers

[TeeTeeXD94]

This guy is AMAZING! No wonder he's being emotional, he's just realised how good he is!!!!

[TheHullcityfan2]

he is the bravest man alive!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ryko26]

"The bravest man alive"???? Are you insane?

[TheHullcityfan2]

one of the bravest dumbass

[ryko26]

how? How many people in the same situation would have started crying on the second day? I'd say about 0.01%.

So how the fuck is that "one of the bravest"?

Twat.

[TheHullcityfan2]

i dont meen that.

its because he is staying in the wilderness for 3 months on his ownwhen there is hundreds of bears and shit out there

grannyfucker

[ryko26]

...with a shotgun, "ELECTRIC BEAR FENCE" (for fuck's sake)

Only if he had a platoon of paratroopers escorting him through the woods could he more deserving of contempt!

Now run along.

[dthetank]

He's had life too easy in the real world.

[CSM60]

Did Ed Wardle died?

[lewisadrian]

thats old you stupid cunt

[CSM60]

lol good lord no need for that reaction XD

[lookintothesky123]

Can somone tell me how he manages to power his cameras for three months...?

[lewisadrian]

Solar chargers

[TeeTeeXD94]

batteries? quite a lot of 'em

[TAER99]

What a beefer!!!!!!

[fukgrid]

Shut up rolf

[grimble112]

please watch my bear grylls impression

[xscbr600]

damn bro...come on!!!! get a hold of yourself!!!!

[DarkGunzHacker]

1:44 I usually try and live, nahahah! :P lmfao

[pleaseworkyoucunt]

must be his time of the month

[misty00]

hmmm whatever!!

[hairyjute]

All you fuckin dickheads sayin this is shit just fuck up!! if you want to do that then try it yourself.......... you'd be crying for your mothers tits to suck on like you were a little child!! incidently I think its great what he is doing. YEAH hes gona rape a bear just wait and see!! YEAH!!

[toutpardonner]

1.44 :D

[misty00]

I know and im sure he doesnt have Batteries and tape to last a month in his kit, there has to be a replen going on, i wouldnt of minded as much if he wasnt crying like a twat every 5 mins! this programme is rubbish ive even complained on the channel 4 website!

[misty00]

complete wanker!!!!!! this is the WORST!! survival programme i have ever seen the press said it was better than Bear Gryls? at least Bear doesnt cry every 5 mins and keep going on about fictional bears and not killing food then moaning about being hungery i personaly would like to this guy die out there then that would make this boring man a little more interesting to watch! i mean i could do better at least i wouldnt go fully kitted up with an electric fence and be a complete twat that cries

[woolensackboy]

yeah man this was so false. He's a joker he goes 'I wanted to live in a forest like people used to' or summat, but he goes kitted with an electric fence, 2 guns, gps, cooking utensils, medicine, tent, hammock etc. Then he cries like a girl the whole time! And if he was on his own how did he carry all that stuff around? Not to mention the bloody dinghy!

[conorferguson]

after watching this mundane piece of televisual tripe, where do we start with the critique on this programme? a better title would have been the Blair 'Invisible' Bear Project. There were even times when we were wishing a bear would show up and put us all out of our misery. Did the 'powers that be' at C4 really think this person had the charisma to command our attention for entire series.Personally, I was left with the feeling that I could have cared less what happened to him.

[Deadlybrit]

What the fuck did this cry baby expect from the wilderness??...TREE, TREE,MCDONALDS,TREE,TREE,MUSIC CONCERT,TREE,TREE CINEMA??.....OF COURSE YOUR GOING TO BE ON YOUR OWN YOU TOTAL WIMP...pussy.

[neilss1]

You cant really know what to expect though humans are used to a cooshy life imagine being smack bang out of comfort zone, its natural to panic in those situations. alone hungry ect ect

[Deadlybrit]

Scots are hard??....hahahaha..my arse they are...faggot...he's missing his haggis and kilt wearing parties.

[flaviof2005]

BE A MAN!! U PUSSY!

[ILOVEGOLFMIKEx]

Omg this thing is not even on tv yet it on tonite :S

[iPR0DUCE]

what the...

[blechke]

He needs a smack. Snap out of it!!!

[senik343]

This is such a disappointing show. 99% boredom, 1% bollocks. Thanks for reading.

[scotland2019]

he dis 8 weeks on his own which is good well done but not all that special is it. for the amount of money he was paid 8 weeks was well worth the paycheck

[scargill8]

Is he Scottish?

[LecceDiPane]

yes

[jondesbrow]

what a fukin cock

[ExtremeBogom]

Kneel down, and open your nostrils...I am going to shove my COCK up your nose,

and let go like a racehorse...you will take every drop.

[paullnewlands]

I spent three month in the wilderness. I loved it, waking up at four a.m. every morning to the sound of the dawn chorus - there's nothing like it. I learnt a lot about myself. Your instincts begin to kick in when you start getting hungry - its absolutely amazing how inventive you become to get food. I loved it. I'd do it again.

[bricardiff1969]

LIAR LIAR,FULL OF SHIT

[mnpd007]

Been there and done that. Almost 40 years ago I did a weeks-long backpack thing into the wilderness in Wyoming. You can prepare for everything except the emotions... the guy is lonely. He's spent his entire life around people, and now there are none. He's realizing how important the presence of people really are.

[Chronobeanz]

How does he get the footage back?

[scargill8]

It isn't played on TV as it is filmed, the entire series will of been done and filmed like last year or something, all in one go. Then He will bring ALL the footage back after his journey is done, get it edited, send it off to Channel 4 and they are airing it this Thursday =]

[bcoy1para]

No a plane comes in every week and picks up the tapes, and takes them back. You see this in episode one. Then they give him new ones and batterys etc.

[dillonjbean]

hes got a set time in there he asnt got contact with people for so so time

[sweetypie000]

he's crying cos he's realised "what the fuck was i thinking about when i dreamed this up"

:)

[snappymedia]

I would love to do this . I think he is fab

[Philtards]

for fuck sake he can leave whenever he likes! anyeway i bet hes down the back behind sainsburys extra, im sure i just saw a green rat trap :S :)

[hotluvr4u]

come here, you need a hug

[scotland2019]

there a man that lives in the scottish mountains west coast. for 6 years alone lives 100% off the land. no electricity no camera.!! very few ppl have even seen him but when they did. he just said he was pissed off with all the bullshit in the world.!!

[sweetypie000]

he's got the right idea

[LIGHTNINGLEVIS]

ive got a lot of respect for any one who would do this

[mikeb0204]

jeeeez i think we are where we are not where we should be unless we are prepared.....duh !

[jcd0033]

WTF is wrong with him lol,He fucks about in the wild and gets paid for it?There is no need 2 be a bitch about it,was he some kind of city guy who has never been in the wild?

[arremitix]

I feel so bad for this man! He misses his family and friends and a good home cooked meal and you guys sit here and make fun of him. He is depressed and tired and just all around breaking down and you guys treat him like a pussy bitch. Shut up and be respectful and watch it or be a dick and leave with a shitty attitude.

[heldiney17]

this show is crap we just watch the guy cry

[rogeroyal]

Disregard my last comment. I have seen them all now. And now I nothing more then the utmost respect for this guy.

[rogeroyal]

His no Bear Grylls or Lars Monsen. Thats for sure. lol

[pickurn]

is this real

[mtneagle2009]

He is crying because he is a social person. Social people should not put themselves in the wilderness alone. It is dangerous. I don't like people very much so I have done many solo backpack trips.

[ed2276]

Right. That's probably it. If he has a wife and children back home he is definitely missing them, and the social interaction as well. But, he knows his situation is temporary and he is in such a beautiful place I would hope he could learn to enjoy the experience and take advantage of the great opportunity he has for introspection and meditation in the great outdoors.

[arivera3426]

first of all, nobody forced you to do this task. Just go back home and all will be well.

[TeamRandomObjects]

1:44 MR BEAN!

[hoardan007]

yeah, i noticed that a little farther in,

[comandermalander456]

dude its not fake if u look colse u can see some threes oving and the leaves

[luckyjopot]

i think your loneliness make you cry... wow its hard to be alone my friend hope you bring your pet like dogs!

[450hp202turbo]

hope he dosnt get t depressed as he has a loaded shotgun

hahahahahahahahaha" boom" hehe

[ed2276]

LOL

[gunthix34143]

hahaha crying what a pussy i wouldnt cry i would be hunting and shit not talking to a camera wondering why i am crying

[blake2142]

well see about that when you are dropped

[sweetty5]

u can do it

[hoardan007]

it looks like the background is fake

[lauris47]

I would like to have challenge like that , see how tough I am . But I think it would be really hard as you see in this video ... Man shouldn't fear to cry .

[glokkpod84]

Yeah, cripes. Funny how you go in expecting it to be the outer challenges that really get to you (getting food and not being eaten and crap), but it turns out to be the wilderness in your head that does it.

[Zwobert]

Aww

Don't cry :)

[snuffles001]

the best part is going back home feeling a deep peace within..=)

[RainDeepshoXX]

1:44 .... :-D

[FeFeMuz29]

wtf.....i know right...

[RainDeepshoXX]

...those green shoots in front of you are actually wild onions... =]

[worriedbanana]

really?

isnt that just grass

[gearsgamer1]

bear grills wanna be

[kittybookitty]

Handsome fellow.

Crying is ok.

[ste8Utube]

Looks like he is just sitting in his back yard

[rawiristone]

so you have a forest in your backyard too? lmao

[krazykizza]

i think he was taken hostage and has guns pointed to his head.

[GRIDKEEPER]

Great Out in the wilderness. Look like Ed is releasing blocked emotions. Must be a freat feeling of release to get away from the constant bombardments from ELF waves. Well done Ed.

[hoardan007]

elf waves? whats that?

[GRIDKEEPER]

Extremely Low Frequency. Harmful to the brain and body.

[hoardan007]

aye, thanks mate
