Don't Let Yellowstone's Beauty Fool You into Thinking it's Safe

Показать описание

While Yellowstone has a reputation for beauty and leisure, it can also be a dangerous place. One man, Truman Everts, discovered this firsthand in 1870 when he became lost there for 37 days.

I was thinking this will be a mini documentary about Yellowstone. Instead it turned out to be the story of some poor bloke.

So much misfortune.. at some point you just have to ask yourself "am I an idiot?"

I grew up in Montana and remember hearing stories about people failing through the crust near the geysers and dying.

I went to Montana State University in Bozeman which is 90 miles from the park. The radio station had a theme song for foolish tourists who thought bison were tame and got chased or gored.

Went in thinking Yellowstone was dangerous, only to find out Everts was the real danger...

Just like everything else; Beauty is Only Skin Deep and what lies under is what counts.

The man lost everything and managed to survive. The place is really not safe.

How do you lose both of your knives AND start a forest fire?

Nature’s beauty is just breathtaking and magnificent

Imagine, in the 19th century, to get lost without supply and gear without a map because the place isn't a known place and to have such misfortunes in a small period of time: it's just incredible he survived so many times in nature without serious injuries.

I’ve been to Yellowstone national park and it’s nice

Yeah, wilderness survival is one example of "don't bring a gun to a knife 'fight'"! You CAN'T lose your knife!... you simply can't. For sure, a gun will come in handy for hunting and self defense from predator animals. But a cutting implement is way more crucial. You can use it to process firewood, make a bow and arrows, strike a piece of flint to start a fire, make a spear, make a shelter, the list goes and on, AND you can still use it as a weapon! You must keep your knife at all times, at all costs, while in the wilderness!
