>Got my rifle, my sleeping bag and 5 kilos of rice, I got this. Let's do it He in fact did not have this
People here talk all this shit like they'd survive better than him>u-uuhhh well i'd be prepared and not so dumbThis is cope talk for "you wouldn't do it" which is not in fact because you are more intelligent but because you are a bitch who never leaves your house.Any questions?
>>214443391Yeah. Unless someone has genuine hunting and field dressing skills honed over years of experience they aint surviving shit
>>214443391>you wouldn't go out and starve to death innawoods because you prefer staying indoors and aliveOwned the chuds
>>214443368Eddy Vedder's soundtrack for this movie is a biblical experience.
>>214443449Admitting you wouldn't do it is one thing and smart, I'm talking about all these nerds going on about muh poison berries and that whole racecar copypasta like they're survival experts and not just retards in dim rooms
>>214443368Honestly this guy probably saved hundreds of people's lives. We have all thought about leaving all this shit behind and going to live in the wilderness at one point or another. This movie and story is the reason no one follows through on those thoughts
>>214443585No one else is dumb enough to do that shit in Alaska though. If you really have to live inawoods just go deep into the national parks like a normal person. You still get internet.
>>214443368He seems like a sensative young man who became a mark for himself after reading too much or something. He was a good kid from the suburbs and soft and he tried to LARP as a tough mountain man to prove something to himself and others. I think its wrong and misguided to idolize him.

>I've burned my money and everything that connects me to civilization. I now enter the wilderness! >Has 300$ and ID in a hidden pocketFraud
>>214443391Yeah, did you forget your meds or are you this much of an obvious troon while on them?Hey here's a plan: I take a rifle, a sleeping bag, 10 kilos of rice, and get this, 48 cans of tuna so I don't start immediately dying of anemia.Wow look I already did better than him.
>>214443800the dollar symbol goes before the amount of money, not after it you dumb zoomer
>>214443535Anyone less hysterical than you is already a survival expert compared to our ancestors because the knowledge of how to survive is literally everywhere all the time and more advanced now, you're just one of those hysterical "get real kid if you were getting robbed you'd collapse and have a heart attack we all would it's like not the movies you literally can never ever ever do anything if you feel an emotion" demoralization kikes
>>214443818Please draw a diagram of you carrying the 10 kilograms of rice and 48 cans of tuna on your person I'm curious
>>214443368I'm thinking about doing something similar desuIdk tho I'd probably die and the headline would be retard treks into the wilderness with 3 cans of beans and gets pneumonia two weeks laterHe had the right idea but was too retarded to pull it off
>>214443832My statement harmed you so you made up this entire cope response. Very sad
>>214443846Why not just be smart and buy some land in a rural area and make a homstead there?
>>214443841Just have a big backpack? 10kg of rice is heavy, but doesn't take much space.48 small cans is not that much either
>>214443891Show me your setup bud, I'm here to learn
>>214443391All he needed were a few survival tools and books
>>214443903This one has 100L in room, 10kg rice around 13-14L.48 cans of tuna takes quite little space as well.
>>214443841You've never heard of a backpack?
>>214443948No rice or other tools displayed in the diagram>>214443933Googled, your nerd body would not be able to carry that even empty for a 10 minute hikeOnce again, nerds talking shit
>>214443960>gave you an example>uhm... you're too weak to carry 10kg of rice and 5kg of tuna!!!
>>214443391I wouldn't do it and I wouldn't pretend I would either. That's because I have a shred of self awareness, unlike that colossal retard.
>>214443968I'd put $1000 on that bet and win
>>214443988I buy stuff that weights more than that for my grocery trips on foot.
It was a mix of pure retardation and youthful exuberance aka justifiable retardation
>>214444001No you don't. You're a poor nerd on the internet and that's why your story contains a freudian slip about how you don't even own a car and have to carry your "groceries" on foot like a peasant
>>214443988That's less than half of what a normal guy his age would be able to carry with no problem.
>>214443368I get the idea but the hell would you do it in a place where getting help is literally impossible? At least bring a satellite phone or one of those emergency sos gadgets they sell
>>214444019Except you're not normal. You are a nerd on 4chan's television and film board who is actually arguing with me about how strong you are. Shut up nerd
>>214444032Everyone is not as weak as you are.
just like the guy who got eaten by grizzlies it was a mixture of severe mental illness and delusions of grandeur.but the lesson here is that if you do something really really exceptionally stupid someone will make a movie about it.
>>214443391No, I would survive longer than him and with much less discomfort and it wouldn't even be hard. I'd just bring some basic cooking equipment, communications, high quality sleeping mats and blankets and some things to read and listen to.He didn't even have to 'survive' outside of shooting rabbits if he just brought some basic camping gear with him. but he was a MORON
>>214444044You are a weak nerd on 4chan who has been made insecure by my comments. Why do you care? Because you know you are a loser. Cold reading works
>>214444017I'm from Europe, I don't need a car. Mutt
>>21444405815kg is not a lot unless you are a child. I remember struggling with a 15kg backpack in my when I was a fat, short kid but I ultimately managed it. Now it is easy. You really are just weird or underage
>>214444058I'm just saying I carried more shit like that every day for years for work and you are projecting
>>214444069Ah I see. You regularly buy $1000 because that's just how much your government bleeds you for a handful of groceries. Very insightful
>>214444045not any more. Now he would have been a tik tok star and been forgotten about within 3 months.
>>214443368No shit he was in fuckin' Alaska. Wasn't he from Cali too?
>>214444204>Wasn't he from Cali too?Yeah, that explains why he was such a retard
>>214443482nah, it's just gay
He was middle class. He could have feasibly saved up a few k at least for his 'final trip'. Why didn't he go and live on a remote pacific atoll with beautiful reefs? or find a warm, beautiful forest somewhere around Cali or Hawaii? Why the fuck did he go to ALASKA
>>214444069Said no European ever who wasn't coping hard
>>214443948Ayyy this guy is full of tuna!
>>214443391>Retard kills himself painfully in the woods>"Y-You're not smarter than him just because you wouldn't do that"I didn't know ghosts could get on 4chan Chris
>>214443818You have died of mercury poisoning.
>>214443391I used to live near a forest while growing up. Surviving in North America is easy, even in winter. Poor guy didn't have any real life experience at it. Many such cases. It's funny to read survival books written by city slickers. Such retarded tips. So many obvious and easier ways not even talked about. So many tips that don't work irl unless you delve deeper into how to do it in a practical way. Like eating the inner bark of trees. You need to dry and grind that shit into flour, you can't eat eat raw or boiled, it's too tough and unchewable/undigestable. But every survival guide keeps giving that tip like it's some secret life saving trick. Re. Tards.
>>214444069>I'm from Europe, so I have no concept of actual distance!Fixed that wierd typo in your post.
>>214443948Ummm you have a BIG dick you know
>>214443585There's a big difference between disappearing in the fucking Alaskan wilderness and just being a run of the mill vagabond
>>214443391Id make it further than a mile from a major road on a well used hunt trail a few hundred yards from a river crossing and they’d never find my body, at the very least
>>214443368didnt this guy managed to hunt down a deer too? he already had the bus and everything. why didnt he smoke the meat so it lasts longer?
Reminder: mccandless believed that inside every person were dormant solo-survival superpowers because he couldn’t comprehend how else people could survive without society, technology, etc.
>>214446598I say this as an European, no serious person in their whole life has the need to travel 1500km, or even 150km, everything you need is withing a walking distance of your closest walkable city, you have your assigned work space, your pod, the tax and gay office and you have the euthanasia center. Everything you will ever need.
>>214443948Is that a cockring? Reminds me of Pop Up the Volume. The movie, not the song.
>>214443948Blue board, bro
>>214446746citation needed
>>214446726It was a moose. Outside of rutt moose are as calm as hindu cows. “Hunting” one is just walking up to it and shooting it.
>>214443960>>214444017>>214444032>>214444058get a job
is there anything more cucked than living in the woods alone?
>>214443830Not in Europe it doesn't, eat shit lardass.
>>214446598This is my favorite version of that shitpost
>>214443368I don't look this deeply into stuff that's been memed endlessly. But why was there just a straight up bus in the middle of the forest? As far as I know, he hitchhiked to where he wanted to get to. It seems like if there was a bus just hanging out there, then he must have at least been near enough to civilization to go get help. Like I said, I haven't looked into a lot of this, so all I know is bits and pieces from people who tell me about it or what I see on this board or on the literature board. So don't go ape on me for not having some wild in-depth knowledge about this guy.
>>214443830i don't respect your fiat anyways kike
>>214446598Isn't this an argument that you should have lots more trains in the US?
>>214443779I'm 35 now and just noticing how I'm totally over 'young people' stuff like that. People in their early 20s all have these impulses to do miserable stupid things to prove something to themselves.
>>214447176It was used by workers from a Fairbanks mine and they left it there in 1975 when the mine closed because one of the axles was brokenHe was 20 miles away from a townThe bus was removed by a cargo helicopter after this woman died in 2019 trying to retrace McCandless's journey
>>214447279Bus 142 is now an exhibit at The Museum of The North in the University of Alaska, Fairbanks
>>214447279From what I understand, he got poisoning from eating the wrong kind of seeds. I'm not sure how severe it was, but obviously he died. I think he could have probably walked 20 miles.
>>214443482Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam are the epitome of homosexuality
>>214447279>He was 20 miles away from a town I walked 20 miles in a day several times, it is exhausting but totally doable. In that habitat maybe 2 days but I'm sure he could have camped for a night if he waited for decent weather. sounds like he was a real moron
>>214447501>>214447324The poison berries fucked him up some but the main problem was that he was outright starving to death before he realized anything was wrongMotherfucker was 142 pounds when he arrived in Alaska and 67 pounds when he died
>>214447517Ah, I see. I thought it was that he mixed up potato seeds with something else. Then again, like I said, what I have is just piece me out from what I've heard.
>>214443368he was a retarded suicidal faggot who pissed in the mouths of every ancestor begging to have basic necessities like a fucking map. If he did the barest research he could've known there was a bridge and not have died like a mongoloid. I feel absolutely no sympathy for his stupid ass. Everyone wants the simple life, but they fail to recognize, ironically it's more difficult. Many live innabush all he had to do was not be a pompous piece of shit.Press S to spit.
>>214443412Even then, historically fur trappers ate like kings off rabbit meat and also nearly died of malnutrition. That retarded nigger brought rice and thought he was gonna survive.

>>214446539drunk indians routinely build Quinzhee's when it gets below -30°. It's a lazy igloo even a drunk retard can make to stay warm in winter
>>214447650
>>214447517so what, he just didn't notice he was starving, anaemic and incapable of moving? I would understand it more if he was high as fuck and bought a large supply of drugs with him, but it sounds like he just voluntarily turned up to this bus, stopped doing anything and just malfunctioned until he died. genuinely retarded
>>214443391tranny
>>214443368What would happen if Timothy treadwell, ran into Candless in the wild?
>>214448206I wonder if they ever met.
>>214443368Imagine dying like a retard and then the internet continues to make fun of you for being so retarded until the end of time lmao
>>214448206They'd probably compete to see who could die stupidly the fastest
>>214447166>>214446598Driving for 1000 miles does not = riding a train the same distance. Europe still owns.
>>214447848>When you're filling your belly with food that doesn't provide sufficient calories you don't feel hungry but you slowly get weaker.Same when you fill your belly with too many calories - you don't feel over-full but you slowly get fatter.
>>214447228Distance nerfs rail due to >poor last mile experience,>airplanes getting more space to get an edge>cars mog non-high-speed-rail train speeds>building high speed rail over large distances passes through more communities and means you need to bribe more politicians and get around more political groups who want to stop you
>>214447517>>214447324The only reason the “poison” was a factor was because the was already mostly dead from starvation.
>>214448331yeah I know, I had a poverty college stoner phase, but I was still completely aware that I was losing weight / muscle and needed to sort my life out. If I was in a bus in the middle of alaska 100% I would feel a sense of urgency and panic early on and gtfo of there. I genuinely believe Chris was suicidal. some people don't have a will to live but not sufficient to be able to shoot themselves or jump off a bridge.
>>214446949How do you kill a moose with a peashooter? Did he put 50 bullets in him?
>>214443391I have been homeless on two occasions. I am uniquely qualified to say yes, I could essily survive and have survived better than he did
>>214446598>Bordeaux - BerlinFun fact: that's the flight of the first bomber to drop bombs on Berlin.
>>214443391Never in a million years would I isolate myself so far that I couldn't get myself out within a day's walk. This retard sat there completely unaware of his surroundings and starved to death not knowing there was a bridge like a quarter of a mile away.
>>214448554>>214446949he didn't hunt rabbits or anything? he just walked up to a tame moose and peppered it in the eyes with his little BB gun? jesus
>>214443368>5 kilos of riceWouldn't this lead to malnutrition pretty quickly? Why not bring something with actual nutrients like peanuts?
>>214448845It was a .22 and he physically hunted, rather than trapped rabbits. He didn’t know how to make a trap. Even trapping would’ve been a caloric deficit.
>>214443585He actually killed people because dumbass kept trying to find the bus.
>>214448901Rice lasts ages if you keep it dry, it expands after cooking so it fills you up nicely (but it's also edible in raw form), can be combined with almost anything from meet to berries and a decent energy source in itself. Not to mention it has other properties that can be useful out there. Like it's water absorbent nature can help prevent moisture-related issues or the hard, small rice grains can serve as an abrasive for cleaning or even a noise maker due to the sound it makes when shaken. You could even use the rice bag as a pillow! So the primacy of rice as a survival food is not about the nutrients but pretty much everything else.
>>214450038enjoy scurvy nigger
I lived /out/ for a couple months when I was this dude's age. It is very easy to die outdoors because no one will help you. Nature is a terrifying thing. It seems ok and then it's very not ok very quick. WATCH YOUR WATER LEVELS
>>214447324>>214447543In the movie he gets poisoned by eating the wrong plants. IRL he died from starvation. He was eating a plant that had no nutritional value and his stomach contents were full of it during the autopsy.
>>214444017>have to carry your "groceries" on foot like a peasantextremely american
Why didn't he just take a cow with him? A live one obviously, because he couldn't carry it. They walk on their own, that's the beauty of it. He could milk it and make cheese and butter, or just drink the milk. He could cut a steak out of it, if you're careful you can stitch it back up and it heals in a few days.
>>214444053What 1991 vintage gear would you take?
>>214448554>How do you kill a moose with a peashooter?Incredibly badly, and painfully on the part of the moosewouldn't be surprised if he spent a good 15 minutes plinking at it whilst it writhed in agony and he made it inedible due to pumping so much into it.
>>214444045Treadwell treaded well for 13 years though. It's not the same as the guy who died on his first camping trip.
>>214443391We all are surviving better than him simply because we're not putting ourselves in his same retarded situation
>>214443368>>214443391You should add an 'Also' or PS when adding stuff you forgot to include in your first post.
>>214443948Anon you're a big guy
>>214443391He was a complete fucking retard. He literally wandered out into the wilderness one day with no supplies and no training. He got sick eating poisonous mushrooms and started shitting his guts out and became dehydrated. Then he got lost and couldn't find his way back because he was too stupid to bring a map and ended up dying a few miles from a busy highway.
>5 kilos of riceThat's life five days and it's gone.
>>214443391>>214443535Why do you identify with Chris McClandless so much?
If only he knew you can eat trees
>>214443391Id be fine.
>>214452489Wait. He didn't know you could eat.. trees. You are bullshitting me. No one is that retarded.
>>214443391I feel seen
>>214444303High impulsivity would make people do stupid things. He got money but donated it all away. Some new age guru probably advised him to focus 100% on feeling instead of thinking. Inspired by the novel Call of the Wild and Robert Frost's poem Road Not Taken, and Nietzsche's writings, he created a warped idea of reality in his head and thought he was invincible. His OCD further doomed him into going into his suicidal adventure.

Let'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.The End.
