You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its flavor, what will it be used for? It only serves to be thrown out, and trampled underfoot by men.
Yes it is!!! I fall a sleep to the sounds 😊 tried to sleep apps with their music it didn’t work. The sounds of the Saw The hammer the sounds of nature is so much more soothing in those musical apps. Thank you so much. God bless be safe and enjoy your life.
@@izzyplusplusplus1004 Same here. I think I subbed right after his very first video was uploaded and hit my recommended back in 2017. Been following closely ever since.
I remem beginning watching him when he had just under 50k or less. He was hunting/fishing/bush crafting i guess you call it. The quality of his photography & videography captured my attn., esp since he was from CAN. I have relatives there. Then he began his outhouse & then started on his cabin,etc. His creativity & intelligence is amazing not to mention the fact everything he does is excellent in quality! I can see his subs going even higher. If not, ppl just dont know what theyre missing!!! Cheers to ya Shawn! 🤗🍻
I find it astounding that you go out, hunt for food, pull the feathers, singe it, build a fire, and make a gourmet meal just for yourself. You remind me of my oldest son. When I’m alone, I open a can.
Wouldn't I just love a man who can build things, is self-sufficient, logs his own timber, catches/raises his own food and can cook! How much wonderful is here in one man? The skills he possesses will stand the test of time and allow him to survive anywhere. This is great to watch. Thank you so much for the rerun. What I love the most is the lighting of fires in order to cook a meal. Truly uplifting.
Shawn produces two types, with & w/o commentary. I too like the ambiant shows, the white noise effect it has on me puts me to sleep in my chair everytime.😏 Not that it's boring...just the affect of every YT vid that is ambiant.
Trust me; he has all the time he needs. Such a glorious life! I just wish I had the strength and patients. To me, I'd be scared at night and don't wait for food to come around.
Have you ever considered writing a book on all the things you can make to survive in nature? Plants, salves, tools, drinks, construction. Even an outdoor survival cookbook!!It is amazing how much you know. If you ever get time to write!!! You keep so very busy always
Thanks for another awesome video. I just came inside from splitting wood and saw the notification and thought "Well, it's a good time as any for a break!" 🪓 🔥 🏕️
Хорошим будет пусть денек И позитивным настроение. Дела решались точно в срок, Сложилось все без осложнений. Удача пусть не отстает, Преграды на пути сметая. Пускай весь день во всем везет, Любовь моя оберегает!
🌞 Good afternoon. Another beautiful video. You have a great variety of meats to cook. 👍 The canoeing is very enjoyable and relaxing to watch. Be blessed and thank you very much for sharing this. 👏👏👏👍🙏☝️
I used to spend lot of time watching youtube videos, now cut down on everything to save time. But one thing i dont miss is your videos. Honesty, your videos spread positivity and very satisfying to watch. You are very inspiring Shawn. Thank you !!!!
This way of life, self-reliant, working with hands, heart and brains, builds the best possible appetite, I believe. Watching the good food, meat, vegetables, etc. being prepared on a good fire, it's the best fuel for working muscles and a cheerful sense of health 🌞
I am following you from Algeria -The weather here is warm all year round I feel so much fun when I watch your elaborate work in the nature that I smell wood Thank you for giving us that wonderful feeling.
Well I would like to know who is giving you thumbs down on this video I'm sure they must have issues but thanks for sharing your video with us buddy from Maine
People may give a thumbs down for many reasons. A lot of followers may like to see only NEW CONTENT. SJ seems to have nothing going on this time of year, not sure, none of my business.. I find a lot of TH-cam channels keep posting titbits of previous Videos. Easy money, especially for someone like SJ who is so well liked by 1.7 million plus subscribers. I also believe a lot of SJ's followers may not like to see the slaughter of animals, especially when one has the means to buy protein in meat form from grocery stores or local butchers.Thats a choice a subscriber can make and shouldn't be judged for having issues, or being a heathen or labeled unhappy. Usually people who judge and chose to be abusive to someone who doesn't agree with their thinking, get temporary joy criticizing someone who is not part of your" herd mentality thinking". SJ's channel brings joy and escapism to so many people, for their own personal reasons that don't need too be judged. Just LIVE And LET LIVE. Theres enough hate going on in the world , don't bring it here. A simple Thumbs down is nothing in the grand scheme of the TH-cam world. Understand its just a business.
This is a bit bittersweet, and I didn't even live there. The new place has it's own unique spirit, and I'm looking forward to the videos you will post from there. But even I miss this old place.
Sue here, gotta say that was awesome, loved it, great Music And Memories of your life and Calis, stay safe out there, can't wait to see your new place.
That is not survival. That's living like a king. And I am jealous as hell. You are probably the only person who truly enjoyed 2022. Wish I could still live that way. I used to but now I have a bad heart.
When I was 16 flew up to Sashketchican to a fishing lodge. Fished all morning for Walleye. Lunch on the lake bank, the guide had a paper bag, some flour, crisco, salt, pepper, bread and canned fruit. Guide dressed fish, put flour in bag with salt and pepper, shook, fried in cast iron skillet in some lard. Best fish I ever had in life, canned peaches from the can for dessert. Afternoon we fished for walleye, muskie and pike. Back at camp guide took fish, cleaned, cut and frozen for transportation back to states. Best ever fishing trip, we went 2 times!
How you do everything you do and then film it all as you're doing it is amazing. I love watching! God bless you and keep you and Cali safe out there in the boonies by yourselves.
ILL START WATCHNG THIS CHANNEL ADMIRING YOUR SELF RELIANCE, DREAMING YOUR OWN DREAM AS MINE CAUSE AT MY 66 YEARS IM TO WEAK AND SEEK TO START ALL OVER BUT NOW THAT I HEAR YOU LIVING TO START ALL OVER YOURSELF, I CAÑETE FEEL NOTHING BUT ENVY! AND THAT MY WARRIOR FRIEND, ITS WORST THAN THE COVIT-19 ITSELF. WISH YOU GOOD LUCK, AND MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU!
Man, this is great. I am following you since ages. This is, what life should be. Not just a desire, 99,99% of us will never be able experience. Instead we're running our jobs to make money and hope being able to pay for vacation once a year. If i had a chance, i would instantly switch my current life for something similar. Yet here I sit in Germany, where i'm not even allowed to stay over night in a forest if it does not belong to me. Watching these videos is pure joy and keeps me sane. Keep it up and never stop!
MSR year compilation videos?? Yes!!! All day long. Magnificient photography and artistry, not to mention subject content. Thank you for this wonderful piece of work Mr. James.
Hey 🤠Shawn laid a 2020 on us to enjoy and I did. Cali obeyed Shawn in his every commands, I give her an "A+". Seen your Mis' James, Shawn she was making flat 🍞 bread . Jim showed up canoeing/fishing 🐟. Thanks 🤠 Shawn for sharing. ... Arkansas Clyde 🇺🇸👍❤️🌲
Mr. James, when you toasted up that "pie" with the fry bread, homemade cheese, and barbecued bear meat, I just about swallowed my tongue. It was great to see it again. It was a good thing I had recently eaten breakfast, tho. My favorite parts of the year were watching you plan out, plant, and bring to fruition that huge garden. This was followed by cooking in the forest kitchen, the camping trip, Cali's Pond, and building the screened porch. Then there were just the many well-chosen, high-def shots of serene wild country. Watching the sun rising and setting, the foliage of every color I can imagine, the water flowing in myriad courses takes me all but there. The bird calls, trickling, crackling, the wind sighs, and insect songs complete the experience.
Thank you, Shawn, for this documentary of your bushcraft living, hunting and what you eat. When I saw you with that turkey on the table, taking off the feathers, I imagined how I would have to take a few deep breaths before starting to prepare the bird for dinner. I know I COULD DO IT, but I'd have to let go of the resistance toward seeing the reality of it, unfamiliar with slaughtering due to city life and buying meat ready to put in the pan. I've always felt that this way of living, foraging, hunting, for one's food, for the family or tribe, is the honest way proper. I'm sure that spending more time in the wilderness, like you've done already for quite a number of years, and provide for oneself, shelter, warmth, and food, helps to grow into it more, with ease and confidence. And to use the feathers, the parts of an animal that aren't edible, is awesome. Never let any useful material go to waste, in those conditions, isn't it? I so love the creative part of living self-reliant, inventiveness
I enjoyed this episode immensely. Woke up early morning while the house was quiet and cool, made a cup of tea and got to enjoy the whole video without interruption. What a great way for a flat lander, city guy to start the day. All thanks to you Shawn and Cali.
I'm going offgrid...thanx so much for your vids! Your many adaptations to cooking in different settings are awesome and show me that no matter what, u can survive anywhere! I'm hoping all my years of working will lead me to the lifestyle that I have craved all my LIFE! I love kayaking and want to fish and learn how to hunt...this lifestyle is all I ever wanted..peace, quiet and self-sufficient...thanx again!
I am 74 yrs. Old from d philippines , can u teach me how to be a self reliant person, thanks , u r fun task stick , GODBLESS!, HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASONS TO U AND UR LOVE ONES.
I would like to see your dog eat just like you and enjoy the food, as I hardly ever see the dog eat. They are wonderful videos and I believe that living in those places is much healthier and you can fully enjoy God's wonderful Creation.
Shawn, today’s video is very, very gorgeous. Kudos and bravo to you sir. 👏🏽👍🏽😀 I hoped 25 years from now when I retired that I will do maybe few of your huge skilled you are doing now. You are an absolute educated skillfully person. Your knowledge into your amazing property cabin is very amazing. I truly always looked forward to all your skillful work, hunting and all the amazing things you do when I get home from work and unwinding. Thanks sir. Very highly rated videos.👍🏽😀
I admire that guy he's doing what he loves.... he's living the dream.👍
It’s impressive enough to live the way you do, but to record it so us slaves of civilization can dream of that same life is truly a gift. Thanks man!
Classy, rugged, delicate, strong - James has the perfect balance.
So quiet and peaceful. There is nothing more wonderful than the sounds of nature. This is enjoyment at its best. Hats off from Timor Leste 🇹🇱🇹🇱
You are the 1 person in the world who enjoyed 2020.
Not true.
And filmed it too.
I enjoyed the yr 2020 too. But God bless you Shawn
2020 was beneficial for people with "plans". I worked on my Tiny house in 2020...annnnd still working on my TH in 2021.😏
I did too and had many blessings
This might sound bizarre but watching your videos has helped me tremendously. All of my stress just melts away as I look upon Elohims creation.
Me too, I just wish my son was alive to see this. He always wanted to live like this.
We are the creation of the one and only Elohim
@@patrickmare1253 yes and so is the earth.

I hope you have all your videos backed up beside youtube. This is your life story. This will be a gold series even when you are gone from this Earth.
I agree. This would make a great movie easily.
I remember when this channel had like 700k subs and around 900k Shawn was hoping he would get to 1 mil, now we about to get to 2 mil
When I first subbed, he started the first cabin. What an amazing dude with amazing perseverance. He's an inspiration.

Thank you so much for sharing when I get off of work I get a glass of wine and sit down and watch your videos very relaxing.
I find it astounding that you go out, hunt for food, pull the feathers, singe it, build a fire, and make a gourmet meal just for yourself. You remind me of my oldest son. When I’m alone, I open a can.
You need to love yourself and treat yourself, invest in the effort. Feels good. Steps to hapiness. ;)
Me too
Surely he too opens a can once in a while! This is also for a video
Sounds like my husband. He's spoiled rotten and when I'm not there to cook for him he eats junk food.
@@Anne-FromQc I agree Anne
Wouldn't I just love a man who can build things, is self-sufficient, logs his own timber, catches/raises his own food and can cook! How much wonderful is here in one man? The skills he possesses will stand the test of time and allow him to survive anywhere. This is great to watch. Thank you so much for the rerun.

You know so much and its
nice to see how fast your channel is growing
смотрю с удовольствием все твои видео, как хорошо мне ,даже захотелось приехать к вам ,в Канаду .
No dialogue is a nice touch. Nicely done sir.
I actually like dialogue, it explains what’s happening and provides insight on how he does what he’s doing.
Shawn produces two types, with & w/o commentary. I too like the ambiant shows, the white noise effect it has on me puts me to sleep in my chair everytime.😏 Not that it's boring...just the affect of every YT vid that is ambiant.
Great vid, relaxing
I like the style but I also like dialogue and think that he should be able to use dialogue when he wants to on this channel without people complaining
He could still put up captions/subtitles, he has in the past!
Trust me; he has all the time he needs. Such a glorious life! I just wish I had the strength and patients. To me, I'd be scared at night and don't wait for food to come around.
Спасибо за обед! Я уже сыт! Ни один ЦАРЬ так не обедал, как мы с Вами: Вы реально, я виртуально!
