>Counter to the portrayal in the Krakauer book and Penn film, Chris McCandless carried "into the wild" a wallet with multiple sources of identification and $300 in cash, as well as a map.Fraud
>>214367733He also carried the guilt of the girl he murdered. Unlike matthew broderick
Retard absolutely deserved what he got after that guy that drove him out desperately warned him he was going to have issues and offered to take him back into town and buy him supplies out of his own pocket.
Even if he NEVER went on that little excursion, fuckin dumbass would have found an equally retarded way to die. Some people are just too dumb and cocky about being dumb to live.
>>214367781>>214367865You too are dumb zoomer faggots that can't go a day without tiktock. McCandless decided to live off the land with limited modern resources. He failed, but he took a bold risk. All these faggy youtubers do the same shit now but it's incredibly sanitized.
>>214367865Probably would have died on the way to a NASCAR event which he probably would have entered in his own car or something.
I like to think that in his final moments as he lay in the bus, his breathing shallow, starving to death, he realised that this entire venture was absolutely stupid and that he was a fucking idiot.
>>214367733>Walked into a freezing river until chest height and almost swept away by the current>"ooh this was a bad idea">walks back to the riverbank and sleeps in wet clothes whilst seething writing about how the river is too violent for him to cross (with a bridge downstream within walkable distance)Grade A autism
>>214367733Did he have any candles, or was he candless?
>>214367906the movie leads you to believe he's an utter retard>knows fuck all about hunting, decides it's going to be his main source of sustenance >when that fails, he decides to eat random berries written about in a book he's found>doesn't finish the chapter on the berries he's found, before eating them and dying
Just got diagnosed with Vasculitis at 26,I have absolute no money and no doctor around here, I'm going to die young just like him.I'm not scared of death but absolute terrifying of pains
>>214368149You should eat some berries
The list of things he got wrong was 1000% longer than the list of things he got rightAlso he has fangirls who are as equally deranged as him and change their last names to mccandless, one recently got a life sentence for claiming false rape allegations against a man and when that didn't work, she slit his throat and stabbed him multiple times whilst he was parked up and claimed he tried to rape her .
>>214367733> this is what a 24 year old man in the 90s looked likegrim.what went so wrong?
>>214368128>>knows fuck all about hunting, decides it's going to be his main source of sustenanceHe killed the animal, but he should have tried to turn it into jerky instead of smoking it>when that fails, he decides to eat random berries written about in a book he's found>doesn't finish the chapter on the berries he's found, before eating them and dyingThis doesn't happen. In the movie he's clearly trying to match the berries to the picture in the book, he isn't sure, but takes a chance and eats them anyway out of desperation.
>>214367733How's he a fraud? He didn't spend it. He was a fucking moron, but he wasn't a fraud moron. I can't believe people thought that mixed up kid was some sort of role model for free-spirited hippies. Very strange guy. Was gay or possibly bisexual, but definitely celibate. The movie romanticizes him a bit much I think. But it does show how truly dumb he was and how little of an argument even he was able to make for his actions.
>>214367763context?
Obligatory
>>214367906>le bold retard who died being freeIf the fucking moron had two brain cells to run together and actually exercised some caution and reasoning he would still be alive and free in the wilderness.Too bad now hes just a dead retard.
>>214368149vasculitis is curable
>I want to LIVE in the WILD ALONE and not RELY on ANYONE or ANYTHING and be SELF-SUFFICIENT>Steals from cabins>Can't make his own shelter, has to shelter inside a bus>falls in a lake>pumps .22 rounds into a moose's head and can't even eat it>eats poisonous berries>dies
>>214368217you could look like that too if you spent a few days outside
>>214368156
>>214368278>how little of an argument even he was able to make for his actions.He doesn't owe anyone an explanation or argument for his actions you fucking retard.I would rather die in the wilderness than be some faggot addicted to social media.
He was free. Yeah he was a retard but he was also fucking FREE. Can you say the same?
>>214368250He should have at LEAST had a huge fresh moose steak for dinner. The idea that he lost absolutely all of it boggles me. He must have boiled up a chunk. If he ate the whole raw liver or heart like some native indian would have he'd probably have gotten an extra week's worth of strength. It doesn't mention in the book that he rolled around with a giant back of weed, but he acted like he was baked off his ass and spacing out the whole time. Like he had too much acid in college or something. But I think he had a bunch of weed with him. He totally would have met the types of people who would've given him a bunch. I bought this stuff today.
>>214368328>If the fucking moron had two brain cells to run together and actually exercised some caution and reasoning he would still be alive and free in the wilderness.He lived and died how he wanted to you dumb fucking faggot.
>>214368365And yet here you are.
>>214368382>lived as a retard and died sufferingDamn how noble.
>>214368380>He should have at LEAST had a huge fresh moose steak for dinner.This I will agree with. I'm only going based on the movie (and of course the book is just piecing together things based on evidence and his journal), but if I had to guess I would 100% say he did have a moose steak (cooking that would be quicker than smoking it anyway).He learned a hard and tragic lesson about how hard mother nature can be. Zoomers can't even answer a fucking phone nowadays. They can't go a day without instagram stories
>>214368365lol, calm down. I don't use social media either. I like to camp sometimes. You can't deny Chris was unprepared and lost in every way.
>>214368397>And yet here you are.Yeah, to say that he doesn't owe anyone an argument or explanation. What is your point?
Reading the book, honestly its a miracle he didn't die sooner.>whenever he was out of food and options, he just so happened to stumble upon a hippy colony, or a place where he could stay and live if he worked>lived off the good nature of strangers gifting him things despite him being a weird guy who refused to bathe>at one point he even had a woman interested in him romantically with her family willing to give him a job and downpayment on a house>he steals anything not nailed down and moves from state to state doing this until he hits alaska>even there people are giving him stuff for free before he tries to make it on his ownThe guy was running on luck throughout his life and luck runs out.
>>214368445You should go outside and not come back in until your belly is full of berries.
>>214368402
>>214368402>>lived as a retard and died suffering>Damn how noble.He took a chance and did a bold thing. He didn't know that he would become the subject of a book and movie after his death, nor did he plan such a thing.
>>214368439>I don't use social media either.who's gonna tell him
>>214368439>lol, calm down.Nice bleddit argument, faggot. No updoots for you here.> You can't deny Chris was unprepared and lost in every way.He wasn't, retard. He wanted to go in with as little as possible. That was the whole point. He wasn't fucking camping. It blew up in his face and got him killed, but he still died on his own terms.Faggots like you are dying taking selfies falling off of hotel balconies.
>>214368445He owed his fucking family. That was some bullshit he did to his parents (who were oh so mean, right?) but moreover his sister. He doesn't deserve to be such a hero you think he is. He fucked up and he didn't have some great poetic reasoning for anything. He gets no respect from me.
>>214368462>You should go outside and not come back in until your belly is full of berries.Wow, I'm sure this zesty joke got you tons of gold and updoots on r/survivalkeks. Fucking faggot.
>>214368250>He killed the animalhe didn't realize that prey migrates with the passing seasons, and was therefore in a desperate situation almost immediately.>This doesn't happen. In the movie he's clearly trying to match the berries to the picture in the bookIf you have two berries that look alike, and the book says one of them is poisonous, maybe you should finish the book before putting random plants in your mouth.The movie made it very clear that he ate the poisonous berry and then read about it.
>>214368472No, fact is he didn't plan at all which is why he died as a loser and we all laugh at him.
>>214368503i don't have a smartphone even. Fuck off. I'm older and wiser than you and I've read the book and met Krakauer even once in Seattle.
>>214368517>He owed his fucking family.No he didn't. Based on the movie the parents were shit (at least the dad was).>He doesn't deserve to be such a hero you think he isI never said he was a hero. I said it's retarded that you think he didn't explain his actions or whatever.>He gets no respect from me.Nobody cares, faggot.
>>214368462Sorry, best I can do is a belly full of cum
>>214368539You love him and wanna marry him.
>>214368526>If you have two berries that look alike, and the book says one of them is poisonous, maybe you should finish the book before putting random plants in your mouth.Is there any evidence that said he just didn't finish the book you fucking faggot?>The movie made it very clear that he ate the poisonous berry and then read about it.I remember him looking at berries then looking at the book, being undecided, then eating the berries.
>>214368522It's so fucking funny how mad you're getting about some dead retard.
>>214368527>No, fact is he didn't plan at allThat's the bold part you fucking retard. He's not like these le survivalist youtubers that carefully plan everything for weeks in advance.
I didn't know who Galifinakas was until like two years after that movie came out when I rented his netflix special on DVD through the mail. Those were promising times, weren't they? '08Now there will be soldiers in every major city and martial law by the end of the month. Yippie.
>>214368532>i don't have a smartphone evenAll this bleddit larping.>I'm olderI'm 47.
>>214368589>by the end of the month.or in other words, in two weeks
>>214368567>It's so fucking funny how mad you're getting about some dead retard.It's funnier than your le epic zinger. I can only imagine the replies you got on bleddit>"zomg this is everything">"nailed it">"DRUMPF SHOULD DO WHAT MCCANDELESS DID"
>>214368503>He wanted to go in with as little as possible. That was the whole point.And it was retarded. Hamstringing yourself by doing something you've never done before with absolutely zero planning of how you're going to achieve it, and putting your life on the line at the same time is simply stupid.I can respect wanting to live off the grid, I can't respect some retarded hippie who grew up in a protective bubble of such magnitude, terms such as "hunger" or "perilous" were a concept utterly foreign to him.
>>214368554None of you have read the actual book Into the Wild or the addendum he added in later printings or even probably the wikipedia article about his death. If you're basing all of this off of half-remembered viewings of the movie you should rethink your confidence.
>>214368614I didn't watch the movie
>>214368554>that said he just didn't finish the book you fucking faggot?Yes, the movie showing him eat the berries, and then finish the chapter on the berries he just ate.>I remember him looking at berries then looking at the book, You remember incorrectly. This scene is seared into my memory because I didn't like the movie from the get go and then it ends with him being retarded.>>214368614None of you have read the actual book Into the Wild or the addendumCorrect, I watched the movie and that was enough.
>>214368624i know everything from reading 4chan posts about the guy
>>214368606That's awesome, keep going retard.
>>214368608>And it was retarded.Says you, faggot.>Hamstringing yourself by doing something you've never done before with absolutely zero planning of how you're going to achieve it, and putting your life on the line at the same time is simply stupid.What do you care? Did he ask for your help? He took a big risk and it didn't work out for him.>I can't respect some retarded hippie who grew up in a protective bubble of such magnitudeWho said you should respect him? He was in fact a middle class yuppie kid that bucked the system. That I respect, but him being a coddled kid certainly didn't help him on whatever journey he thought he was taking.
>>214368636lol, now you're just trolling. You are talking about a movie character now and not the actual guy.
bleddit? You're 47 and you're obsessed with reddit and call it bleddit? Wow, you are a little older and you're far more pathetic.
>>214368639Yeah me too. That's how I argue in most threads. It isn't hard to put together enough to get a good argument going. If all else fails, tell them that whatever they said has been debunked.
>>214368666>you're obsessed with reddit and call it bleddit?I'm not the one obsessed with it. Clearly you faggots are with your posting style>bledditWay to out yourself, newfag (and you say I'm " a little older"), once upon a time on 4chan saying "reddit" would get the post blocked due to spam content or some other filter, hence using terms like "bleddit".
>>214368707>once upon a time on 4chan saying "reddit" would get the post blocked due to spam content or some other filter, hence using terms like "bleddit"actually this has been debunked
>>214368729>actually this has been debunkedYou clearly weren't here before Asian Moot you fucking lying faggot.
>>214368573And that's why he's dead. Being a retard isn't bold or inspirational. You might as well call some random urban youth reaching for an officers gun and get shot bold. He followed his passion, being retarded.
>>214368674Based. That's the whole point of /tv/
>>214368744you're mad, maybe go for a walk in the woods and cool off
>>214368554>>214368526>>214368614Kek it's like an Elder Scrolls journal
>>214368772>And that's why he's dead.Ok and....>Being a retard isn't bold or inspirational. You're a dumb faggot that needs to get off his phone. The guy set out to live life (at least for a little while) in the wilderness and he failed. It was bold. Nothing to do with inspirational because had no control over what happened after he died.> You might as well call some random urban youth reaching for an officers gun and get shot bold.Are you fucking retarded? That's both illegal and an attack. What McCandeless did was living like our ancestors lived at one point.Go donate to an Onlyfans model you brainrotted kike
>>214368797>you're mad,Typical bleddit response. No gold for you here, faggot.
>>214368573It's not bold. It is flat out stupid unless he wanted to die.
>>214367763Based Matthew Broderick accountability holder
>>214368845>It's not bold. It is flat out stupid unless he wanted to die.You're retarded. He took a risk, and literally nothing went his way. Bold and stupid is a fine line.
>>214368382I'm 100% sure he did not, in fact, die how he wanted.He was a rich hippie with main character syndrome, the thought of dying never even crossed his mind until the moment he shat himself to death.
>>214368816Have you ever spent a single night in the woods? I spent years as an army scout so I was out in shitty terrain for longer than he did and I didnt die like a retard because I knew what I was doing. Like you know, having a fucking map and know the terrain and surrounding are, what not to eat unless you want to die etc. The kind of shit a normal person would learn in elementary school basically. Plus that moose he shot was poaching so he was a criminal.
>>214368871>I'm 100% sure he did not, in fact, die how he wanted.His last message was literally something like "I've lived a good and happy life". For him I'm sure he didn't want to die at that age, but dying in the wilderness to him was better than rotting away in some nursing home.>He was a rich hippie with main character syndrome,>main character syndromekys zoomer>the thought of dying never even crossed his mindBeing this retarded
>>214368900You are legit so retarded. He didn't do this to be a fucking eagle scout or to have a fun camping trip. He wanted to have a barebone experience in the wilderness living off the land. He did just that and he died. He didn't video record his journey or have an author setup to tell his story, that was just something that happened later on.
>>214368902his last message was "beautiful blue berries" and then slashes while he shat himself to death after eating poison
The fanboy is losing his god damned mind!
>>214368925>The fanboy is losing his god damned mind!"ZOMG BLEDDIT DO YOU SEE THIS! DOWNVOTE AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!"
>>214368915He absolutely would've recorded this and put it on tiktok if it was around back then.
>>214368925the 47 year old boomer yearns to shit himself to death alone in the woods
>>214368915Dying off the land isn't the same as living off the land. It's just incompetence
>>214368934>He absolutely would've recorded this and put it on tiktok if it was around back then.He literally could have brought a video camera and some batteries and tapes (or some audio recording equipment) but he didn't retard.
>>214368948No. That would have required planning
>>214368867>and literally nothing went his way.That is how survival works. Things aren't always going to "go your way" so you have to be prepared for things to go wrong. If you aren't, and you can't adapt, you don't survive.
>>214368945>Dying off the land isn't the same as living off the land. It's just incompetenceI never said he wasn't incompetent. He clearly underestimated mother nature. But his whole plan was just "fuck it I'm doing this". You sound like one of those "OVER THE NOSE" faggots during covid.
>>214368948>retard fails to bring any food or supplies to the wilderness>shits himself to death>yeah well he would have brought a high def camera and a streaming setup if had wanted to
>>214368953>No. That would have required planningAnd a desire to do such a thing, which he had no desire.
>>214368973he also lacked a desire to not shit himself to death alone and crying in the woods
>>214368957>That is how survival works. Things aren't always going to "go your way" so you have to be prepared for things to go wrong. If you aren't, and you can't adapt, you don't survive.And he didn't survive. He wanted to see if he could do it, he couldn't, then got trapped because of the flood.
>>214368960>his whole plan was just "fuck it I'm doing this". That's not a plan. That's being retarded.
>>214368966>>retard fails to bring any food or supplies to the wildernessHe brought 10 lbs or rice, retard and a rifle to shoot animals.>shits himself to deathThis is real bleddit posting right here. Pick a phrase and just repeat it over and over and over for updoots.>>yeah well he would have brought a high def camera and a streaming setup if had wanted toHe didn't because it wasn't about getting attention like you faggots all want nowadays. He did it for himself.
>>214368330How?
>>214368960Again you try to make it sound like being a moron should be admired. I could say "fuck it I'm doing this" and start rollerskating on a highway, which would also get me killed for being an idiot who didn't think things through
It do be like that.
>>214368995>That's not a plan. That's being retarded.No it isn't. He brought some basic food and a gun. This wasn't going to be a forever living situation, but things went bad real fast and he didn't make it out.
>how Chris McCandless expected to get food
>>214368988There are ways to see if you can survive without being retarded like you
>>214369007>Again you try to make it sound like being a moron should be admired.It is. He tried to go back to a basic form of living that shitty modern life has left behind. Let me guess, you ripped on everyone who died in 2022 with a "he should have gotten vaxxed" comment?> I could say "fuck it I'm doing this" and start rollerskating on a highwayTypical idiotic bleddit comparison that has no basis in reality.>"I COULD SAY FUCK IT I'M DOING THIS AND JUST DRINK GASOLINE, RIGHT GUYS? SAME THING, RIGHT?!"
>>214368430I guarantee that a lot of the zoomers that have grown in the countryside have a better understanding of nature than the guy you are defending.
>>214369005>He brought 10 lbs or rice, retard and a rifle to shoot animals.and how did that turn out lmao
>>214369014>This wasn't going to be a forever living situationYou're finally right about something.
>>214368439You’re using social media right now, retard
>>214369044>I guarantee that a lot of the zoomers that have grown in the countryside have a better understanding of nature than the guy you are defending.I don't doubt it. But it's not about "understanding", it's about taking a risk and stripping off the shackles (or what he perceived as shackles) of modern society. Zoomers couldn't go 2 days without their fucking phones.
>>214369050>and how did that turn out lmaoHe killed a moose but fucked up in smoking it. And he at the rice. You went from "HE BROUGHT NO SUPPLIES" and replied with some marvel quip after I proved you wrong.

"Herr derr just stick with your shit parents that were abusive just because".If you have abusive parents, you become independent and extend olive branches whenever you can.>He didn't have a home. He went to college then went into drifter mode.He had a home. He left it.>No it isn't.If you think things are bad enough that Chris was better off dying in the woods, then you'll follow his example. You will not follow his example, so you don't think things are bad enough. Hence, irrelevant. Captcha: KYSKAI'm reminded how low iq most of the people who browse this board are. It warms my heart knowing that you will never, ever reproduce. Last word's yours if you want it.
>>214369286Most certainly. I did a search and this forum post from 2010 wrote it all out:>Here's one angle to the CM story that a lot of people may not have considered, but some people who are familiar with autism, including some who have the disorder, think that Chris was mildly autistic. There are several areas that make me think so, as related to known symptoms and my personal experience as an autistic male.>1) Sensory issues. The assistant manager of McD's in Bullhead City noted that Chris HATED to wear socks. He would strip them off as soon as he got off work. Also, he apparently had poor hygiene, as noted by the fact that he came to work stinky, and he apparently distended his teeth to the point where a dental crown came off when he was in Alaska. Autistics have TONS of issues with senses, and especially touch. Many of us HATE the feeling of water on our skin, and thus bathe infrequently. I know that I have to literally force myself to get in the shower, and if I don't have a good reason to I won't. When I was little I hated to wear socks and shoes, and even today I don't wear shoes in my house.>2) Lack of "normal" relationships. Autistics have problems socializing, and many have a hard time with romance or friendship. Chris never had a romantic relationship, which is odd for a teen/young adult, and had few close friends. He had a couple female friends, but he never tried to take those platonic friendships to a romantic/sexual level. This again is common among autistics-many have a low sex drive.>3) Attraction to wandering/tramp lifestyle. Even as little toddlers, autistics will jump from windows and wander away. Chris apparently did this too. My parents had to put in fencing to keep me in one place. On forums for autistics, the subject of being a wanderer comes up often.
>>214369284The obsessed mccandless fanboy is proof that retarded failures did in fact procreate
>>214369335Is he doing the jazz hands in all of them?
>>214369348Part2>4) High moral standards. Autistics do NOT compromise their morals. They can't be "bought" or distracted. Chris had such high moral standards that he found his parents lacking, and cut them off, which is extreme but in line with what some autistics will do.>5) Unique viewpoints. Autistics often have views on things that many consider odd. Chris was so hard to pin down that not even Jon Krakauer could do it.>There's a lot more, including the "eccentric" maternal grandfather-I had one too. The fact that the female child shows no symptoms-autistics are 80% male. I really think Chris had autism, but died before a diagnosis was formulated for it (DSM-IV, 1994).
>>214369340>If you have abusive parents, you become independent and extend olive branches whenever you can.He did become independent, just not in the good goy way you wanted him to.>Captcha: KYSKAAgain with this lame shit.Let me guess, Israel is our greatest ally, right?
>>214367733I'm always amazed at how threads on this guy/book/movie always turn into 100+ post flame wars. On *any* board. Seen it here, /k/, /out/. Don't have a dog in this fight, just noting what a flashpoint it is here. I'd almost say it's bots trained on 4chan rehashing classic 4chan flame wars. Nahhh, couldn't be that.
>>214367733Real?
>>214369335>These will make FAAABBULOUS slippers, don't you think, darling?
>>214369365
>>214369335lol
>>214369393100% would have been a social media influencer
>>214368076If I’m already in the freezing water, I’m committed to it. There’s no turning back. I’m either going to make it to the other side or I’m ending up like Jeff Buckley. But I wouldn’t even get in the water without walking the entire perimeter to see if there’s a place to cross, some downed tree or something. He was truly a retard.
>>214369393He's a bit zesty. Who was he taking these pictures for? He didn't have a wife, girlfriend or friends, was he still in contact with his family at all?
>>214369423He was probably planning on writing a book about his life changing experience in the wild that turned out to be life ending
>>214369423>Who was he taking these pictures for?Just for fun retard
>>214369238
>>214368357How do you get lost for 2 weeks in Hawaii though?
>>214370766Most of Hawaii isn't pretty tourist beaches. It's dense jungle and swamps with red clay. And spiders. Spiders are bullshit.
Some people die parachuting. Who cares.
>>214367733you sound like a fraud yourself
>>214367906>live off the land with limited resourcesReminder that he>lived in a bus, not the busy>poached animals with a gun>pillaged a ranger station for supplies>lasted 2 months before he gave up>he was a few miles from a river crossing that would’ve saved his life>he was a days march away from cabins, mines, other hunters and hikers>if he had any tact at all he would’ve scouted up and down the river and his surroundings when he got there in the first place so that he knew what was around him and what he had access to in an emergencyIf he had a fucking clue at all he would’ve easily lived. Hell he shot a fucking moose and still starved to death in 4 months when people have been on record fasting for more than 40 days and living.The movie paints him as a tragic good hearted kid that wanted adventure and got unlucky, but He was an utterly pathetic retard
>>214371913The moose really show how retarded he was. He had all this meat, does he smoke it, cure it, dry it? No just let it rot
>>214371954killing a moose doesn't do much if you don't know how to clean an animal, much less how to preserve any meat.
>>214372069He could’ve, at the very least, thrown some on the fire and had food for a few days But retard that he is decided to live off of game without knowing how to preserve it
>>2143719134 months is longer than 40 days, jackass. Fasting also doesn't always mean that you give up all forms of nourishment.
>>214367865He survived in Atlanta for at least four years. That must count for something.
>>214368902>>214368921>>214368803>>214368902*silence*
>>214372127you have to understand he was expecting his dormant solo-survival superpowers to kick in when he needed them because how else could people survive before society
>>214372177Yes, good on you for realising that 110 or whatever day he died on is more than 40. If he had studied at all during his long voyage to Alaska, and brought a book with him (and a map) he would’ve lived. I’ve been to where he died, he had access to fish, berries, birds, fireweed, potatoes (he ate that) he just thought that he would take a gun into the wild and figure it out.He didn’t set a single snare, he would’ve had rabbit stew every single day if he didHe didn’t set a single fishing trap, let alone try to fish at all
>>214372417Your post is irrelevant to what I posted. I was just pointing out your jackass mistake. Of course he died like an idiot because he was one. It was pointed out since his death became public.
>>214372317it does. he's just one of those figures that pisses off absolutely everyone for fabricated reasons
>>214372317Probably meant he never went outside
>>214367906>Cool story, bro.
>>214367733He was the one who found a working radio and was heard getting raped to death by mooses and bears?
>>214368357Imagine finding her in the forest like this
>>214368357Eating batteries? What the actual fuck
>>214368149
>>214369005>10lbs of riceDamn, one WHOLE week worth of rice.>and a rifle to shoot animalsWhich he did and then proceeded to let a fucking moose (that's at least 3 months worth of food btw) rot because he was too stupid to butcher it.
>>214368314Google it.
>>214369331Now that is poetic.
>>214373010We had to waste government resources to airlift that piece of shit bus because one retard decided to die in it.
>>214373093We should have had it moved way before that as it's a waste to let such a valuable resource sit there.
>>214367906he was a scumbag homeless drifter who unconsciously guilt tripped people into helping him and essentially died to his own negligence.
reminder: he called it the magic bus because he could think of no reason for it to be "so far out in the wilderness" because he had no fucking idea where he was.
I really hope his last thoughts were overwhelming fear and regret at how fucking stupid he was
>>214370766maui's jungle side is dense and full of cliffs. i don't think its so much she got lost as she hurt herself and got stuck.and they say if you get hopelessly lost in the wilderness it's better to stay put and wait for rescue than continue seeking on your own. that's how people end up disappearing
>>214368539>Based on the movielol
>the obligatory autistic shut in who gets unreasonably defensive of this retard and freaks out for the entire threadAre these different people or one guy who's been at it for years?
>>214367733This book sucked, the guy had a good station in life but threw it away for nothing. As annoying as the beatniks were at least you could see where they were coming from
>>214367733poor rich boy, his life was so hard, now time to eat bear meat!
>>214367906If I someday decide to tame a crocodile swarm into pets, with limited resources, I'm not being "bold"I'm an idiot.He was an idiot.
>>214368357What the fuck is it brothersIs it the sunIs it the dwindling fatIs it the water, not having enoughIs is the dietIs it the outdoor excercise and skin exposure to wind, that dries it out? My money is on that
>>214367733I slept with a girl in college and she loved this movie and made me watch it. I said it was kind of retarded and she became very upset. Probably the hottest girl I've ever banged, shame that I couldn't just pretend.
>>214373270I think the question is more of how exactly it’s possible to get lost when you’re AT MOST five miles from the ocean in any direction. It’s a small volcano island. Literally just go downhill until you see water or people
>>214368314He just gave it to you, retard.
>>214368382>He lived and died how he wanted to you dumb fucking faggot.Like all those fags dying of AIDS in the 80s?
>>214374612You can actually spend all month walking and not finding the exitYou are overestimating the retard's navigational skillsThis is not the first time it happens.https://youtu.be/3nO3_swePVs?t=381
>>214369006Ivermectin and electroshock therapy
>>214368816>What McCandeless did was living like our ancestors lived at one point.Shitting themselves to death?
>>214374612>Literally just go downhill until you see water or peopleOk so you've never been in the wild at any point in your life. It's never a perfect decline. Unless you have some kind of land nav skill most people will end up walking in circles because they follow the natural lines of drift. Add exhaustion, dehydration and starvation and yeah. They're lost.
>>214369331>>214373093What the fuck was a schoolbus doing all the way out there to begin with?
>>214374904It was just a decommissioned bus some dude bought for cheap and left it out in the woods
>>214369140lmao
>>214369300Fucking this. Kikes can't survive without a host. If all White Men moved into the wilderness it's them who would die. White men lived in those forests for millenia. I bet Mccandless was actually assassinated to scare rest of the castle into complience.
>>214374866The drift circles tend to be larger than five miles, anon>>214374772The volcano peak is at 10k feet. The ocean is at 0 feet. Unless the entire thing is nothing but cliffs there is a clear downhill path to follow. This is basic logic
>>214375077>The drift circles tend to be larger than five miles, anon Not really. They can easily be smaller than 1 mile. But please tell me more about shit you have no clue about
>>214374945Yes but how did he get it all the way there?And why?Is this a thing that just happens in America?Some dudes buying shcoolbusses and for nno other purpose than abandoning them in the woods?
>>214375077Like that anon said, you've never been on the wild.That's not how humans, feets or reality works, you are thiking in videogame logic "just go downhill, take 15HP fall damage and giggle at the ragdoll physics bro!"You may be INTENDED to go downhill, reach a small cliff, and plan to go around it instead of jumping down like in a videogameAll your trip is small decisions of what's best for your feet, not really "lol just machete your way in a straight line"There are no straight lines, you dad should know that
>>214375194He just found it. If you're out in the woods you'll find a ton of random shit people dumped decades ago
>>214367906>survival mode with no survival skills Yes, a bold choice indeed.
>>214372965nta but googling any form of "christopher mccandless murder/killed someone/killed a woman" gives nothing. it's all about his own death.The only "murder" of a woman I can find is some 24 year old Belarusian woman who died trying to find his bus, which I wouldn't call a murder but just another unprepared moron dying to dumb shit.
>>214368902I haven't read the book in like 20 years but I distinctly remember his last message being "Happiness is only real when shared"
>>214375194Well, America has far more land than people, so in the more rural areas you can dump large vehicles and it may take years or even decades before it is found. Even better if it was pre 90s or so.
John Kikeauer (jewish) lied and omitted things about his 1996 everest excursion which he got famous for writing about and also embellished and distorted truths with Into the Wild because its in his DNA to be manipulative and dishonest for personal gain
>>214367733he clearly also got a job retard during his wandering timehe's more of a wanderer, like hippy or some sort, but doesn't mean he refuses modern civilization
>>214367733>>214367763>>214367781What are you guys talking about? Pleas explain and link sources.
>>214375977USS liberty incident, educate yourself
>>214372663shut up, bitch. you're the type of guy i rape.
>>214375596It was put there with a bunch of other decommissioned city buses, stripped down and turned into housing for workers cutting down trees or mining or whatever. All the other ones got dragged out of there years before once the workers left but that one was left for some reason.
>>214369300>something something clown world>shits himself to death very aryanly
>>214368655My very first post literally mentions that I'm talking about the movie on this television and film board, yesthe movie is bad, maybe the guy wasn't a total retard, but that's then a failing of the movie
>>214376146Irrelevant. I was simply answering the other anon about how random junk winds up in the wild.
>>214367733Let's pretend his passion was Nascar driving...Christopher McCandless sets off, from California in an old car he rebuilt himself (he replaced the fenders and painted it), on a trip to the Daytona 500. He only gets across the state line when he runs out of fuel because he forgot to fill it up. Instead of simply walking to the nearest gas station or flagging down help he decides to push his car over an embankment and set it on fire. He then proceeds to walk on foot to the nearest car lot (which happens to be in Mexico for some reason, mostly because he burned up his map in the car and he's been taking backroads.) He finds an old bicycle in a garbage dump and uses that.He finally gets to the car lot and buys a fixer-upper for $50. Before leaving the car lot he has to change a tire, which he replaces with the solid rubber donut. He buys fuel and heads off to the Daytona 500 again. Only he's heading deeper into Mexico and eventually ends up broken down in front of, "Autodromo Internacional de la Jolla" due to no water in the radiator. The engine block has seized up. Luckily, there's a race about to start. Christopher...er "Alexander Superspeeder", who changed his name, pays the $125 entry fee for the race.Unfortunately, Alexander Superspeeder doesn't have a race car. He does however have an old bicycle still. He uses the bicycle to race. He makes it only 3 laps before he is too tired to steer straight and veers off into a race car and is killed.Some Jew picks up his story and writes a book about his life and how he followed his dreams. Another Jew makes a movie about it. Armchair racers around the world adore him.
>>214372965¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>214375233Well he will make a straight line with the machete tho... just gonna take a lot longeri am 100% straight so i would never go into the gay line
>>214367733the fact that a hapless bum like this gets himself killed inspires so much seethe makes me like him more. he was worthless and he was well aware. you should treat him as such by not talking about him
>>214378796Too bad he was deified by a hack journalist. McCandless' life may have had some value if it had taught people to do the opposite of him, instead people get killed trying to make some kind of 'pilgrimage' to his death van.
>>214373093Why didnt he use the chopper since the beginning?
>>214377921classic
>>214375194>Yes but how did he get it all the way there?And why?A mining company was building a road through the area in the 1950s or early 60s. They purchased a bunch of scrapped busses from the city of anchorage and towed them out into the wilderness to serve as shelters for the road workers. The company went bankrupt and all the other busses were removed except one that had a broken axle. In the decades after that the bus was used as a shelter for hikers and hunters in the area.
>>214367733If you read the book they make fun of him for being a manlet and for being shorter than his little sister
