Hey Isaac, not sure if anybody will actually read this but you still good given the circumstances. That was a tough video to make I'm sure. Please don't be mad at yourself we all love you and value you being part of the team. Also here are some survival tips if you ever want to try again, the sleeping bag number is pretty much only rated for the extreme survivability not the comfort, so a -20 degree bag will keep you alive at the temp but you will still feel very cold. To combat this look at the comfort number on the bag instead if it has one. Also you can bring liners and extra blankets on top to keep you even more warm. The sleeping pad also helps insulate your body from the cold ground. Don't light the stove in the tent as it will fill up with gas like yours did and could catch on fire. Base layers are important like you mentioned and cotton is not a good base layer, stick to syntheric fibers like nylon or merino wool to keep you warm and shed body sweat. Anyways Good luck Issac don't give up :)

Issac dont feel discouraged, we value your safety and health above content. You are a wonderful addition to the team and it wouldnt be the same without you anymore. You cant blame yourself for not being fully prepared when we are growing up in a world that doesnt prepare us for those situations. Long story short, dont feel discouraged, and we are happy just to see you guys give things a try even if it isnt "seen through". We love you!

Let’s give Isaac another shot… but in a warmer setting 😂. Regardless he made disastrous event very entertaining.

[MaryJ]

I love seeing all the comments lifting Issac up! He is so relatable and lovable! I love Justin and Andrew...been watching their vids for years but Issac brings them up to the next level IMO.

[Korbo]

Issac don't call your self loser or anything bad. You are a great person and make JSTU so much fun to watch. You bring happiness to this channel and app

Leave a like if you want them to do a survival challenge on a tropical island 👍

[Lookinglost]

Isaac don't be so hard on yourself, you made a great call of ending the video early. Your safety is priority, and some of the early signs of hypothermia are stopping shivering and confusion. Making the mistake of increasing the valve instead of decreasing it could have happened to anyone in your situation. We love you man, and we are glad that you are a part of the team.

Nice job Isaac. I don't think anyone blames you for quitting the challenge. It was honestly the smartest thing to do, given the circumstances. Although it might have been a "failed" attempt, it was still very entertaining and you tried your best which is all that really matters! (Plus there's no need to compromise your safety for a video). Would like to see another one of these in the future in the summer time so you don't have to deal with it being so cold!

[lifeofmachine]

Isaac, my daughters and I love watching you. Don't get so down on yourself! We wouldn't mind seeing more solo Isaac videos at all. Long live JSTU!!!

[nathanweight]

All three of you should have a survival camp on your own, but with the same gear. After you all learn and educate yourself on how and what to do. Don’t give up Isaac

5:34 I was 100% expecting the editors to make Isaac fall through the ice right here

[johnatkins]

Don’t be so hard on yourself Isaac. You did a great job with what you had, and I still enjoyed the video. You learned a lot and you will do much better next time. Keep up the good work buddy!

[Me-thgj]

This was the first JSTU video that had me literally biting my nails the whole time. You put yourself into one of the most dangerous survival situations, brother. I'm just glad that the mishap pushed your survival instincts past the urge to make a video. I was actually rooting for you to get the heck out of there. Stay safe, brother. Don't put yourself in harm's way to make a video for us. And please don't be so hard on yourself. You're one of the best dudes.

[ProdCHIEF_S]

It really awesome seeing Isaac do a solo video, and I like how they kinda changed the video style to more of a documentary format

[mjsky]

Awwww Issac you did the best you could!!! I still enjoyed your video.

[micaheddings]

I was proud of Justin, I was proud of Andrew, and I’m proud of you Isaac. I never would’ve even thought about doing that alone and the fact that you even made it out there tried so hard to complete it blows my mind. And since you always say, “I love you” to everyone, I’ll say it to you on behalf of all of us fans WE LOVE YOU ISAAC! Not that you care about anything I have to say but I’m gonna say it anyhow

Issac, as a veteran who has had to survive in many different climates, the very first thing where you went wrong was in attitude. The video started with you saying you were ready to throw in the towel before you even got on site, you were defeated right at that moment. You ensured your defeat as the video went on by listing what you forgot. This plays a huge role in your subconscious. You didn't believe you were going to succeed, so you didn't. I love you on the team, you normally have great ideas, albeit not very well executed ones all the time. But others, man.... take the hide in plain sight challenge down here in downtown Colorado Springs. Brother you were absolutely brilliant with your construction worker idea! It worked because you believed it would work. Your health goals are working because you believe they will work. At the 6-minute mark, your attitude was perfect, you said this was the coolest thing you've ever done, and you were having fun in conditions that suck. That's the attitude you should always strive to have in survival situations. The power of positive thinking is remarkable, because instead of thinking about what you do wrong, you are thinking about ways to make the situation better and are more inclined to act on those thoughts. For food, y'all really need to get some MRE's for these overnight challenges. They have a flameless heating packet that only requires a little bit of water, and it's enough to heat up your food. For all 3 of you lads, I would suggest investing in a smaller tent, pup tents, or as we called them in the Seabees, the Seebee Bake Oven. They are small, light, and made to be erected by one person. They are so small that they can be easily fitted with insulating layers and will trap heat quicker and easier than those bigger tents you use. Now having said all that, Issac, mate, wonderful attempt, you are to be commended for trying that which most people wouldn't even consider doing. I want to see you succeed in a challenge like this, offline I'd be honored to help you prepare for the next outing, I live here in the Springs so the logistics will be easy to navigate. Let me know brother. Much love to you and the rest of the crew.

[catherineferguson]

No worries Issac, we love you whatever. Justin and Andrew are so lucky to have you in there team, I think it’s better if the three of you stick together next time, your clearly lost without each other, you all spend at least 10 hours a day with each other, it must be hard hanging out on your own in the middle of dot nowhere. Thank you Issac, the important thing is that your safe and warm now and heading home. All the best Issac. Stay safe ✌️🤟🏼👍🫠🥰⛺️

Issac your not a looser you’re awesome so glad you are part of the JSTU family you do such a wonderful job don’t be hard on yourself God bless you Issac
Your health comes first

@JStuStudios Isaac, you did what was right and safe. Don't be so hard on yourself. The takeaway from this experience is that you learned something. Preparaion is key for these, and you should know your tools before you go out. Use your heater/fire and anything else you've never done before(even set the tent up at home) to make sure everything is working and what you want it to be before the expedition. You've got this, and you can do it, brother💪
