300 Days Alone on an Island - A Robinson Crusoe Adventure in the Pacific Ocean
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2018
- Welcome to our amazing adventure! In this video, we'll be joining our hero Xavier Rosset on a real-life Robinson Crusoe adventure - 300 days alone on Tofua, a remote island of the Tonga in the Pacific Ocean.
We'll follow our hero as he embarks on a daring journey of exploration, discovery, and self-reliance. He'll be completely isolated from civilization, and must use his wits and skills to survive.
We'll start by watching him build a shelter, and gathering food and supplies. Then he'll have to figure out how to catch fish and hunt animals. He'll also need to make improvised tools, and explore the island.
And we'll watch as he adjusts to life on the island; dealing with storms, loneliness, and the possibility of never being rescued. We'll see how he copes with the mental and physical struggles of living alone in the wild.
It's a remarkable story of courage and determination, a true psychological story between solitude and loneliness and hopefully it will inspire others to try their own outdoor adventures. Join us now for this amazing Robinson Crusoe adventure!
After 3 minutes, you won't be willing to leave your screen.
Ce film existe aussi en version originale française , Xavier explique dans sa langue maternelle ses souffrances et ses joies. Cette version est un peu différente de celle en anglais.

this gives me inspiration to someday spend time in nature and experience how it feels when time stops!
can we just acknowledge that this man did all this in crocs
Easy
this is the true feat of greatness

Is this guy still around???
Okay?
Gabriel Barré what his ig Name?:)
Inferno Credits Bruh that’s not proper English stfu lmfao
Inferno Credits like I haven’t watched the video and without any context this makes absolutely no sense because it’s not even a proper sentence. The fact you understand it is worrisome lol
The character arc with the pig was absolutely beautiful. This man is an absolute legend.
Its better than most of the survival movies 🥺😇
the pig shouting for hours had me dead lmfao
yes, seperating the pig from its mother and the pig probably died is so wonderful. legend for sure
@@XJ9LoL He was on the island for a year, that is long enough for a pig to mature enough to survive, so no. It did not die.
@@isolatednf9228 Yeah he didnt have it locked up the whole time either, he brought it around with him and had it out of the cage when he was home so it would have figured out its own foraging and such
🥹 him carrying the screaming pig for hours and still being so kind about it was PRECIOUS! This is such a capable, strong yet gentle, masculine man! I’m so impressed at this fortitude!
And such a capable, strong yet gentle, feminine pig! I'm so impressed at . . . something.

Wow you did math for this comment congrats
vi per No I didn’t
I'm a female I don't know, i really want to know,if a *man* stay alone like this can he somehow ,sometime,someway or seomwhat he can feel horny??? And foundout his *weapon* become hard !!!. I meant the situation so desperately forcing him to see how hard to live, can he still feel 'horny'???. & How he can be calm down , i'm asking this to this guy or ,because he got that experience or any guy who did come across this situation.
Makes a trap to catch a pig, makes it his friend.
That was amazing... like it came out of a book
i was thinking he originally planned to eat it once it got bigger but then it grew on him..
He was more lonely than he was hungry
@wnsl the pig was a paid actor
“And the animals I’ve trapped, have all become my pets.”
If you ever feel lonely, watch this video. It makes you realize we can accomplish incredible things despite our feelings. Without a doubt one of the best adventure documentaries I’ve ever seen

But social stigma exists.
It breaks my heart to see the loneliness set in. I feel that in my soul. Ive lived off grid in isolation before, and the depression gets so heavy, you dont want to open your eyes in the morning. Only hunger, thirst, and having to pee, can force you to get up.

I've read Robinson Crusoe in the past when cellphones were not a thing yet and I can really say that it's a quite similar story. Love the raw storytelling and doing everything all by himself from scratch. Solitude is a blessing and Providence is bliss.

thats some sad shit right there, what if the piggy went to get the other pigs, to show them what a great home he got
I bet he is thinking about the pig right now
And imagine if the pig comes back there everyday to see if he is back. :(

OH GOD WHYY
I don't know why, but for some reason I watch this video once per year, it brings me a lot of joy. Thank you Olivier for sharing the story.
You’re welcome, thank you for watching it again and again
It shows that Xavier’s adventure is more than only survival
I think English being his second language makes the emotions conveyed so raw
At first i was like “man, an hour long?” and then i thought about it and realized this man spent almost an entire year in the wild filming himself and he cut down all that footage to an hour. After watching the entire thing i think this belongs on netflix or somewhere more people can see it
Thank you,

Incredible. This is what youtube is for. That hour just flew by and was captivating.
Amazing story. Thank you for painstakingly documenting and sharing with us
The beauty of this movie is the deeper simplification of what life is, and the different seasons one endures. You grow a seed and invest in your habitat every day a little
Me five minutes in: there’s no way I’m gonna spend an hour watching this
Me and hour later: *PIGGGGGYYYYYYY* 😭
he ate that piggyyyyyyyy
piggy 😭
Guys... Spoiler alerts plz :(
AND hour later huh
Saaaame :(
When you watch it feels like he’s talking to you, but for him he was alone talking to a camera for a year before he could even edit this for someone to see
Jake_of_the_Jungle 98 he would have only had the camera when he was doing something worthwhile he wouldn’t record himself 24/7
I have a small penis But, yes I understand that. I mean that he had it all recorded in loneliness and couldn’t show it till it was all over with and edited. Have you ever tried to have real conversations to a camera it’s actually a pretty hard skill to get a good camera presence.
Jake_of_the_Jungle 98 haha you just said you have little pee pee
I am high as fuck and this made my night lmao
@@migglejoe1008 🤣🤣🤣💀
How many of can just drop everything and go away like this. For me that was the most courageous part. And he did not chicken out in between and cut the challenge short, he saw it through, wow, very inspiring.
I am born in the country side and I was taught to consider 3 things in survival moments like this. 1st is immediately look for drinkable water source before anything. 2nd is to make that place your hunting ground. For the first few days, try to feel your surroundings, observe what animals are there and select good hunting spots and to set traps as early as possible. 3rd is to make a shelter considering all the forces like rain, wind, lightning and storm surges, make it as durable as possible, it is best to cover it at all sides and only leave a hole for entry and exit in that way any rain and wind angles will not enter the shelter
“Today, I woke up and I said, “Yeah, cool, I’m gonna do the bench.” And now in the evening, I have a bench. Eheh, I have my bench..... I’m happy.”

It really do be like that.
Sometimes you fail at simple stuff like this at it and it's terrible.
When
“And now, in theory, I have a didgeridoo” is the single best line in the entirety of this video
Ian Jacobs I laughed out loud in public when he said that
What does thateams didgeridoo?
I liked the bench line better

@@MrEyad1990a didgeridoo is a type of musical instrument, often used by australian aboriginals
45:20 was the most moving part for me. There wasn't any dramatic speeches or awful storms, just a man and a bench and sometimes that's enough.
This is one of the most inspiring documentaries on you tube. A big respect to this man. He's inspirational. Wishing him a good health and a long life. Keep going...
Crazy how human contact quickly changed his demeanour. From not wanting to start a fire or do anything, to walking 6 hours to another village to help somebody other than himself.
"300 days alone"
centan hotbox it wasn’t his 300th day tho... 🤨
It shows everywhere that when humans have nothing we are at our most generous but we must always keep in mind our own needs as well sometimes that is simple companionship and that can be worth any price to us
U MadBro yessss 💯

This video inspired me 5 years ago, whenever i am feeling aline and lost i re watch it..i have watched it now at least 10 times.. the strenght and effort, courisma and selflesnous to be humbled everyday by nature qnd its unkowing beauty is amazing to watch and see. I wishbsomeday to accomplish something like this in my life.
Thank you sir❤

"And if one day before I leave she wana come back to say hello, I'll be very happy"
Never before have I felt so sad about a pig...
That pig is looooooooooooong gone.
Rip to lil piggy :')
At least she made her debut on youtube.
Soloman 5k ok libtard
@ Soloman 5k Other animals kill each other as well. That's nature my dude.
mental health in such a place is equally important to eating. if he is lonely and without company, he will eventually give up. he found more value in the pig as a friend.
@@revi925 he mentioned that in his comment dude btw have u watched season 2 of opm yet it's sick
"Congratulations Xavier on surviving 300 days on the deserted island! From Swiss chocolate to coconut snacks, that's an exceptional survival journey!"
I really want to be alone like you sir.. at least for a week.. I really want inner peace. so much has happened in my life that I really want to shout to the whole island.Maybe I can do that when I have enough money. I know I can do that but I don't know when.. thanks to god sir that you passed all the trials and lived a simple life according to the gift of nature.No one lives alone on an island. But a quiet place can give peace to your heart and mind..,👍🙏❤

So great
Absolute mad lad

crocs aint shit
Man, when he was reflecting on Piggy leaving.... "And if one day before I leave if she wanna come back and say 'hello,' i'd be very happy"..... that really played my heart strings. What an incredible journey.
made me think of pork chops.
@Raw Sauce Don't have to be a "highly intelligent human" to eat pork chops, silly person.
This was the single most moving experience I've ever had. Thank you.
I am surprised how little he was prepared. Example, could have taken some roaps or seeds. On the first day, should have planted some seeds like Aubergene. Right from day one he should have explored all the sorrounding to see sources of food and medicinal plants that there are (again some background reading on this required). He did explore but it took ages before he got going. His diet was mainly fish but if had done some research there would have been lot of plants he could add to the fish. Having said all that, the fact that he was not prepared yet survived and survived well is extra ordinary. Something that very few people can do. And it was a pleasure to watch the video.
Thank you
You’re right but Xavier wanted a genuine experience
Finally the algorithm recommended something worth watching.
Thank you 🙏

emajej he had a cameraman though, so is it really worth the recommendation?
So satisfying!!
All hail the mighty algorithm!

Lots of jokes in the comments but this was actually the best TH-cam video I’ve seen in a long time.
Yup..everyone on youtube thinks they are so clever with the same formatted jokes and rarely offer any actual feedback but the worst part is the mass of people who upvote the garbage tier comments to the top.
Agreed
This should be posted in Vimeo
Thank you Apex. Another of my production will be online by Easter more or less, well soon 😷
