SOS: How to Survive

True-life adventure, drama, and back-woods wisdom come together in this unique series. Not odd in a bad way, but perhaps niche. Creek is one-fo-a-kind and is excellent as our documentarian, teacher, and guide to the real stories of people who have been lost, forgotten, or just confused in the wilderness in (usually) dire conditions. Love the ever-changing costume choices in which Creek shows us how to fashion rafts or build signal fires. The only little complaint is that the range of life-saving crafts, advice, and information needed is somewhat limited (really, just take water, matches, don't go alone and tell people where you are going). Things can seem to repeat if you binge-watch too much, so it is understandable that Creek does not explain in every episode how to start a fire using only shoelaces or something. But he does show about 6 different ways over the several seasons. Some stories do involve serious injury and even death, which adds real complexity and power beyond most outdoor shows. Am hoping there are more seasons to come and have seen recent news stories of people found after weeks in the wilderness that cry out for treatment.

Love the insight and knowledge Creek gives in the show! Creek has gotten me to put " get home bags" in each of my cars and showed my Wife what is in it and how to use them.

I keep hoping The Weather Channel or another station will pick this show up again and let us learn more from Creek Stewart! Creek gives Great information and easy to follow and learn instructions on how to not only survive but thrive in what could be deadly situations!

I have gotten my whole family into watching this show and others for just in case emergencies. We are not hard core preppers but we are prepared and constantly learning and look forward to seeing new episodes of SOS: How To Survive!

Why is commentator a fashion show? Crocodile Dundee on steroids witrh fashion. He's a pretty boy with smocks,feathers and leather dangles that does amazing things. Nothiing! Lol Raal life in the bush doesn't care what you look like. Put some tassels in his hair to make him a badass please. Fashion matters in the woods, oh yea!! Have you ever seen encountered a blond dude with tassels a crew of cameras, sound and LIGHT in the woods? Lol You're saving nothing but if you wear cool clothes you'll make it.

I bet he'll suck the poison right out of you to help you make it.. Thats protein? You have to live in the bar bathroom with tassels to understand. You can live and make it with his new suburban show, where he shows his old skills workimg at the Blue Oyster Bar.

Its amazing lol!! Go home honey lol.. Your funny. Heck make that money!!!

This is a very odd show. A survivalist named Creek Stewart recants stories of survival (a couple and their infant son are stranded in the middle of nowhere in blizzard conditions; a woman is the sole survivor of a plane crash in the Vietnamese jungle, etc.) and shows the viewer what to do to in order to make it out alive under such unimaginable conditions. But what I can't get around is the fact that the actual survivors, who retell their heart wrenching stories, survived their ordeals without any knowledge of Stewart's expertise. At one point he catches a lizard and roasts it over a fire. He doesn't explain how to build a fire in the middle of the Vietnamese jungle during the rainy season while suffering from the horrendous injuries incurred in a plane crash including a fractured hip. I guess, depending on your own personal travel plans, his advice on how to build a bamboo shelter in the middle of the Amazon jungle might prove useful.

He shows how to tie a window closed ,he tied around the sash that had no glass in it, reality if there is no glass it wouldn't do any good to tie it shut. DUH! The lady's he was talking about had used a coat hangers to hook to hook the extension cords to and he claimed they didn't need to use a coat hangers they could simply use the extension cords and tie them around the sash of the windows problem being that he was tying the extension cords to a window that had no glass in it, the woman was tying the window's closed to keep the water out of her bed and breakfast. So the fact that he claimed that they didn't need the coat hangers to tie the windows was dumb as as hell.
