- Stroud journeys to the top of Baffin Island in rural Nunavut, Canada: the arctic. He returns to visit the small Inuit community called Pond Inlet. The integration of modern technologies has ensured cultural and physical survival in an environment where temperatures can drop below -40c. But today, Pond Inlet faces its greatest challenge: climate change. Gone are the dogsleds, Stroud witnesses the marriage of Western technology and indigenous knowledge in the face of rapid economic and cultural change as the ice slowly recedes from the North.
With award winning, never before seen ceremonial and survival footage, Les Stroud crafted this stunningly beautiful and compelling series about connecting to the earth through survival and ancient ceremonies with indigenous cultures around the planet.
Directed By Les Stroud
Starring Les Stroud
So great to see Les still putting out the greatest cinematic material on earth
I've been a fan of Survivorman for over a decade now but I am just now seeing this series as you release it to youtube. Im actually enjoying this series much more than I have enjoyed survivorman, and thats a damn high bar to reach.
My sentiments, exactly. I am lovin' this!
Same. I used to watch him when working at Comcast 15 years ago.
aww this one is not nearly long enough. I feel like I could watch an entire series about the Inuit. The artic region just seems both magical and impossible to me. So barren, yet they somehow make it work. I wish we got to see more of village/town life.
Yeah. Seems like almost all of them could’ve been longer. This one felt especially short as well.
F
I agree, I would’ve especially loved to see some of their more spiritual aspects like Les gets into with the other groups in this series. Still a great episode though, as a northeasterner myself (though nowhere near the Arctic) this one was especially cool!
I spent 5 weeks in the Kitikmeot Nunavut during what looks like the same time of year as you visited Pond Inlet. Can't wait to go back. Its hard to describe the feeling of walking out onto the frozen ocean, seeing massive cracks in the ice. Inuit are some real survivors couple guys got lost in a storm, went the wrong way and ended up running out of fuel and were stuck in the wilderness for a week while they were searched for. Met them a few days after they got home and their faces were very sunburnt but they survived and it was just another day to them. I could comment so much here, thanks for being an unproblematic king Les you've been a great Canadian icon.
This is by far my new favorite series. Absolutely incredible content, can't wait for the next one!
Only 1 day wait
I definitely agree. I must've totally missed this when this series originally aired. pretty awesome how these tribal people invite les in and treat him like family. it's true what he said these way of lives is ending, we are destroying our on world enough that we are destroying these peoples way of life
What amazes me is how naturally Les is able to join in with all these drastically different, ancient cultures, and have it always somehow feel genuine and not artificial or forced. You can sense the deep respect he has and the eagerness to learn. There is no exploitation going on here and he never does anything for shock value or for dramatization. You can really see that he wants to experience their culture and clearly they sense that as well.
had a good laugh when the guide said he wasnt going far.... this is far too familiar for me I'm a Cree native from northern ontario and people around here are the exact same way... ask someone how far is it, "oh not far".. four or five hours later by skidoo lol
Anthropology at its finest, great work Les!
More ethnographers should be looking at the approach you take to capturing cultural traditions and their importance. Very impactful
I think this has to be my favourite survivorman episode so far. I'd never have known if this wasn't all for free on TH-cam thanks so much man :)
Les stroud is the only man on earth that can have this amount of ads and I stick around
Ad Blocker, dude.
Pay for premium and no adds.
23:45 that guy just yelled happy new year when he cut thru the ice. XD thats some meta stuff.
That scope to the eye was prob embarrassing, funny it happened on camera too. Great series, wish there was another season coming out.
can't believe this is free
It's not...you have to pay for every video.
This is the internet. EVERYTHING is free. Just gotta know where to go. lol New user? lol
@Mister Fister by watching ads
@Mister Fister wow..you haven't been paying?? You will be in collections in no time
@Mister Fister So first you way you haven’t paid, and now you say you have paid for TH-cam Premium? Are you a liar, or just plain stupid?
I've learned so much from watching your shows even when I was just a little kid! Just wanted to say thanks for the blood sweat and tears you've put into creating great informative content.
Unfortunately simulation to modern technology is inevitable, but I sincerely thank you, Les for sharing your experiences with us. Too bad we've lost so much knowledge to modernization. We're not far from our ancestors although, without simple things such as electricity, and internet, we're not much different. 😎 Thank you Les.
How Shady was able to jog from one hole to another is beyond me. He is as tough as they get.
And that shiner was a passage to what was a successful trip of the Inuit diet trifecta. Seal, caribou and fish!
Les, as you know. I have been hanging with you since the begining. Both with your tv series and watching you in concert. Reading the comments below makes me proud to be a fellow Canadian. You represent this country, this continent and fhe world wide with honour, dignity and grace.
Thank you.
I've been watching this guy for last like eight or nine years I think or more and this dude is absolutely one of the coolest man on the earth because simply this man goes out to these places and films himself alone and survives and shows you how to do it I honestly think this is one of the first guys that actually started doing it that's why I think this dude is one of the coolest guys on the planet like damn dude you seriously have got a lot of balls but absolutely love your show ✌✌
My respect for you grows with every film I watch.
SO amazing watching them construct the igloo! What a work of art, but pragmatic and precise art. I wonder how the early Inuit knew that a dome shape would work so well and be superior, engineering wise, to a square or rectangular shape.
Thanks for these journeys Les, and for showing us what you see with your eyes. Bless
Les Stroud is the real MVP
I have greater respect for the Inuit and natives in all countries more than I do have for normal society :)
Hi Sir,
Just wanted to Thank you for everything you've done. Hope you know how important you and your creations are.
Ancient snow machines. Wow. They really were ahead of their time.
Once in a lifetime experience great footage
Beautiful and timeless content.
Beautiful series.
Well I honestly learned something today I would've never believed if someone told me but I got to see it truthfully on here and that how Caribou actually have warble fly larva just as deer do here in N.C but people WILL NOT eat the meat if so. I do but people I know will not touch it. To me just as these men know they are only in the skin membrane not the meat it self. Awesome people the Inuit.
Do you think you will do a followup hour or two long special and update us on whether the cultures you touched on are still around??
Just google it... none of these cultures are secret.
@@patrickdewhurst3378giggle thank you captain obvs... well whats the fun in that I had rather have Les tell me😀
@@moxiemckeldrey5486 I know, I was making a joke. :P
@@patrickdewhurst3378 😊😉
This lifestyle is beautiful! I can't imagine living in this cold of a region without a woodstove
Les, you are one bad ass dude !!!
There's no wood around.
@@Bobby-Dingers right! That's what I'm saying
This footage goes beyond awesome!!!
Gotta love the complete video
A rough and tough people, but more satisfied with their lives than most Westerners. Seems that way everywhere Les goes and meets traditional living peeps.
Good morning all tuning in from sw missouri
New york
Europe
Arizona!
Montana
Illinois
Once again you out did yourself... The Inuit are Tough Peoples.... Indigenous to a land that is cold and unforgiving ... Thank You
Glad to see Les finally invested in a GoPro.
Natives with never be gone
Incroyable paysage et très inhospitalier !
This episode was nuts
Thank you so much les for the way you honor all cultures and respect them enough to partake in the ceremonies etc..you are one honorable man
Thanks for sharing i just love watching! Can't get enough.
Les , This was an amazing hunt. 3 Caribou, 11 char and 1 seal. Great hunt.
Growing up on Maui in the 60s ,I learned the ways of Hawaiian hunters.our team was strong.Surrounding many big schools of Akulie ( Spanish Makeral). Hunt pig, and became expert Throw net fisherman.
These skills are also on the tipping point. I was fortunate that the Hawaiian people took me in and taught me. A life well lived.
Great show. Thank you for lessons.

The landscape is gorgeous. Man, I hope I'll be able to see it one day
This is, as always, awesome. Love this series of videos.
This is my favorite episode
Thank you Les
best episode yet.well done
Scope to the eye forsure .I have been watching Les for years hes great
Thanks Les! I've been hoping for an episode on the Inuit 👍
Thank you for the link this was a good watch and educational
I saw arctic and instantly clicked on this. LOL
Incredible episode!!
Yep. I have experienced "Scope eye" myself. In 54 years, I have done it twice. It happens. :-)
Gota love Les shows great respect n always working Migwech 🔥
Excellent.
Great video Les. I got cold shivers just watching! Sustainability is hugely important there isn't it?
These people are incredible
Their love.... and need! God bless Les
I spy with my scope eye... Ha, j/k. That must have sucked, felt bad for you man. I can't believe you tried that fly larvae, you are truly hardcore 😎💪Keep up the good work you do Les! 👌💯😎👏
He is an amazing legend. I would love to meet him. I'm an eagle scout. And would love to learn for a few nights. Just like the way him and the mma fighter did things
They may not traditionally eat veggies and grains - a carnivorous diet, seems that we can learn a lot from the far northern people - also glad too get your notifications, THANK YOU 👍👍🤗🏕🌎😎
LOVE THIS EPISODE
This is awesome, i love this approach to learning, it's very respectful and the best way I think to learn from these people. I'm wondering, if they ate almost exclusively meat, didn't they a lot of vitamin deficiencies?
Great video, Les!
Right on Les. Sorry you got clobbered by the scope. That happens. Cool video. George.
Les.....what a brilliant video....unbelievable really enjoyed it, and you asking a man, " we going to bed", well I guess it was cold....👍👍👍🏴🏴🏴🍺🍺🍺🥃
Watching them shoot caribou got that rush going thru my body. Imagine how good it would've tasted frozen!
I get why they eat that raw food like that keeps you warm or gives you more energy than cooked food and man I would love to sleep in a igloo that would be so neat and I'm so glad you got the experience and got to learn from those Inuit people and know that knowledge that is so amazing
That was great Les
Be safe
thank you again!
Yes I’m loveing these
That's funny if they would have left Les there. That it would have just been a normal day in the office for him on his own. Lol I'm glad they came back.
Wow!
Fantastic video!
That shot of the moon going sideways caught me off guard. so used to it just going down...
Love this series and this may be my favorite episode
Love this
Another great adventure🍂
Awesome video.
Survivor Man I really enjoy your adventures 🙂 your one cool dude 👌
Awesome cinematography
I love your show, you have taught me so many things and i have been watching you since i was a kid.
P:S: I laughed so hard on that scope eye :))))))
THank you les!!
Love you Les🥰
Merry Christmas Les and family!🤗
In one video....
I got mad, sad, grateful, happy, frustrated, curious, and a few other feelings....
pretty neat really
This is excellent. Thank you very much for posting this.

Wow, amazing watch & history told ..
Scope eye......... I'm not going to say more, you already know now. thanks for the vids as always Sir.
Recap - I've never seen anyone get a shiner from a scope like you.
Is the gun sight really off from rough travel though? Or from the scope smashing halfway through your forehead? lol
I love an appreciate you les an even more those Inuit but I could never cut open the fish an eat it raw. Lol. God bless you all.
Dang after catching all that food they mustve felt like they were... on top of the world 😎
The Intro is absolut genius....
This, along with many other episodes, should be sent into space if we ever decide to send some more info about ourselves out into the cosmos, like how we did with the golden disc on Voyager 1. These videos are a very good representations of humans in the wild, even if the humans themselves aren't wild anymore or untouched by the metal hands of civilization.
For all of Les's numerous skills... Marksmanship isn't his strong suit! Lol.
Love it!!!
You’d think they would leave a large marker that freezes into the side of the hole so you know where to dig. You’d also think they’d leave a rope from 1 hole to the other so when the next team turns up you just have to dig the holes and drag the net through.
AMAZING
Very interesting, I have found most types of raw liver to be almost crunchy.
Awesome
i was watching survivorman before i had my first pube haha now I'm like WTF this is amazing.
