    The “Alone in the Wilderness” videos by Dick Proenekke. Middle-aged guy gives up on the rat race and heads to a remote spot in Alaska, builds a cabin, chills there for 30-years.

    The man is amazing. Using hand tools he packed in by himself, he builds a nice cabin, hunts and fishes, all that. Dick needs a spoon or a table or a shelf? He makes one. He makes everything he needs.

    No video has ever brought me such peace as listening to the narrator.

      I started watching it because the guy was making a spoon for himself and I thought it was so cool that he was so self sufficient

      Then I turned on one of the episodes and we was going into his HOUSE that he made for himself, mucking around with the door and trying to make a good way of doing the hinges
