Two dudes from Ontario don't succeed at casting for Alone, repeatedly, and finally decide to head into the woods for a few weeks and film their own series to demonstrate that "living off the land" as hunter/gatherers long term is functionally impossible for modern humans (at least in the west) and no better than fasting: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuoSzo6nnDLKOiZ_rXHE6Gw I won't spoil how it pans out, it's very well done and really shits via science on the hardcore bushcraft crowd. Also has some other great videos such as attempting to eat lilly root. Rime fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Apr 20, 2017 |

The series really lead me to question whether modern agricultural diets have had long enough to alter humans such that switching back to hunter-gatherer mode is simply no longer possible for our metabolisms, at least in the relative my short timespans portrayed in series's such as Alone. Refined carbs are a hell of a drug, basically. I very much enjoyed their standalone experiment on eating Lilly root. That was great.
