No videogames, no Internet, no food court… no kidding! This is real.
In the tradition of the hit series Survivorman, Survive This follows in Les Stroud’s footsteps by empowering kids to explore their connection to the wild.
Eight kids between the ages of 14 to 17 are taken into the wilderness with Les Stroud as their mentor. Chosen for their unique personalities and overall adventure readiness, these kids are vying to fulfill a self-determined goal that is both personal and inspiring. They are challenged physically, emotionally and intellectually. Each episode presents a different survival challenge – devised by Les Stround himself! Over the course of the series, we get to know the kids very well as relationships develop, conflicts erupt and emotions run wild. Les IS Survivorman, and he knows better than anyone that sometimes when it comes to survival you only get one chance. He’ll be looking for that individual who is willing to learn and grow under the most difficult situations. And yes – these kids do have to survive.

Hey Les,
I’m Lauryn and I REALLY would love to sign up for survive this. The top reason is that I’ve never expirenced the real outdoors and I would enjoy to expirence it on your show. I would also love to learn all about the wilderness and how to make a fire out of flint and ect. What first started this is the book Hatchet by Gary Pulsen. Theres one minor problem… I’m 13.. however I’m 14 in october so if your willing to make that exception for me I would love it. please Email me back.

Hi, im brayden and i would love to be on your show i love camping i also play AAA hockey for the central ontario wolves if you pick me to go on your show i wont let you down
Hey Les it’s Elliot. I’m 13 years old and I signed up for survive this. I am a rep hockey player and a smart kid. I also fish really well and that would be one of my strengths for catching food if you accept me. I definitly have what it takes to compete in this cool and fun experience. I have watched both season and learned all the stratagies and techniques to survive. I have never had a survivle challenge like this before because I’m raised in the city. Alot of people under estamate my strength of surviving and if you accept me I would show them what I can do as a leader and as an indavidual. Please accept my register. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter and getting to know you. I’m ready to excell in my surviving skills. All I have to say is bring it on.
How do you sign up for Survive This?
Hi my name is Travis i’m almost 13 years old. I think i would be strong enough to survive in the wilderness alone. I am in cadets, im in hockey, and im joining judo i would really like it if you gave me the chance to SURVIVE THIS!
Sencerly

Dear Les,
My name is Ryan and I love the wilderness. An area for exploration and danger. Me and my friends go down to the forest by our house almost every day. We usualy trek into remote areas of the forest. At one point, we got stuck on an island we had found after the makeshift bridge we had made washed away. After eight hours without food or water, we were rescued by a couple of our parents and friends. I belive that we could have done beter in our situation yet this is why I would like to sing up for survive this season four as I will be thirteen at that time. This experience would be amazing so if you could let me know if I could atemp survival on your show that would be amazing.
Thank you for you consideration,
Sincearly, Ryan Parisien

Hello,
my name is Keegan. At age 14 I am here to tell you that I am up to the challenge of Survival. My favorit things to do are biathelon, fishing, kyaking,hunting,school track, hicking and camping. I’m confident im myself to be a team leader and survivor.
I am curantly involved with the Royal Air Cadets and have gotten gold at a national marksmanship callenge. With cadets we have done little to none in survival training but the few times that we had it I was the only one to eat the tadpoles and fresh water shrimp.
I fluris in tracking and fire making yet I would like to inhance my skills.My academics for mahtematics and problem solving is an A+ this is the same grade i get in physicle education.
I know New Brunswick is a small Province but I feel that I can represent what we have to offer in the knowledge of the great out doors. So if you think I would be a potential candidate for Season 3 please contact me. I unfortunatly do not have a website please excuse that.
Thank you Les for reading this

I’m 14 years old and my name is Austin I grew up in Welland Ontario and have lived there my whole life. I believe that I could survive on survive this.

but im more fit then my friends think i like to wrestle but not hurt others exactly punch or kick me alot and i will be fine throw anything at me i will take it
Hi I’m 19 I don’t know if I’m over the age limit I want to experience a situation were I ether find a way to survive or u fail Ive been in football for 4 years and would like to learn from this in case something could happen were I need to survive.
Heeeey im turning 13 and I really would like to go on season 3 of Survive this i think i really have the strengh to survive and become the ultimate survivor
Less,
I have been admireing this show since season one. Cartoon Network canceled it so I haven’t been able to find season 2 but i’m still looking. I would be so extremely honored if I could participate in this show, I have been wanting to do this sort of thing for years.
I CAN SURVIVE!
I’m thirteen (So I’m really hoping Jade wins, shows that the underdog = AWESOME) and I live in Ontario, and I’m addicted to your show! (Both of them – Survive This and Survivor Man.) I was just wondering when season 3 starts – or at least when I can try out or whatever. I can definatly survive… I’m really tough, I can probably win a fight against any girl or boy in my eighth grade class… I also read a LOT and I know what to eat/not to eat, how to climb trees, etc, etc. Also, a little while ago I built and slept in my own fort, which I built in maybe two hours and was very durable. (I used your tip from Season One, when you said that if you can see any sunlight through the roof, then rain can get in too!) So, I think I can survive.
Les: Where do I go to sign up to be on Survive This? I watched your shows all the time. I’ve tent camped with my family since I was about 4 years old and I am very confident that I can survive. I am also an Air Cadet with the National Capital 742 Squadron. I have participated in Bush week-ends (survival week-ends) and I am also attending my first Basic Training camp this summer. Please send me an application to be on your show.

I am experienced quite a bit, from camping out in the woods for weeks, and i would love to be in a survival situation, were i can see how it is really like.

Hey Less My name is Gavin Trudeau. I am turnig 14 on the 19th of June. I am a little young to be on the show I know that Jade is 13 but I am a good kid to have on the show because at school I’m a good leader. Right now I am reading your book that you signed for me at costc.I was the the guy who gave you the photo of the survial fort I made in the forest. I try to do things to survive like making fire with a flint stick and a magnifying glass, both of them worked out. My friend Chris said that I would be good on the show Survive This because he knows that I don’t give up very easily, and dont worry I won’t forget the nunber one rule that you say “YOU SWEAT YOU DIE.”
So I Know I Can Survive
Thank you for considering me Less
