First of all, this profile is not maintained by Les himself and I have no affiliation with Les Stroud. This is just an area for fans of Les and the show Survivorman. The information here comes from his websites. Enjoy and for all and more in depth information about Les Stroud go to www.lesstroudonline.com. Thank You for supporting this profile page and keep watching Survivorman!!!
This information came was Les Stroud's offical website.
"Les Strouds passion for the outdoors was fueled by growing up pre outdoor adventure craze on TV shows like Wild Kingdom and Jacques Cousteau. But fate would keep him from pursuing his outdoor dreams by instilling a stronger desire to follow his musical leanings throughout his teens and early twenties. Working on rock videos he also developed a talent for filmmaking.
A complete about-face at the age of twenty five saw Stroud spending from thaw to freeze up in a canoe learning and eventually guiding non stop for his own company and organizations such as Black Feather. He has successfully been able to combine his love for outdoor adventure, filmmaking and music into what he calls a beautiful three-way marriage. He makes films about the wilderness and scores his own music to them. As he puts it: All that he is involved in and every decision he makes must in some way, lead him to or keep him in, the wilderness on one adventure or another."

Hey man, hows it going? I'm just sitting here watching "Off The Grid" and the entire time I was thinking you were crazy for doing all of that and uprooting your family. Until I saw you take on the Yellow jacket nest with a chain saw. Now I know you're crazy! Yellow jackets are by far the most aggressive hornet i haver ever seen. We get them a lot down here in Texas and I have had them chase me because I had a Dr. Pepper. They love the smell of it!
