Survivorman Legends tells the real life stories of people who survived: those who suffered terribly but made it through and those who died trying. Here, Les mirrors the story of the Conne family: a father, mother and son who nearly perished when they got lost only 1700 ft. from their car near the west coast of Oregon. Les takes along his own surrogate family to make some of the same mistakes the Conne Family made, but on purpose. He also fixes some of the mistakes they made, too. Few of us can actually say what it feels like, can honestly say they know what it takes to survive. Safe and warm in our houses, the actions of others in survival situations often don’t even make sense — why didn’t they build a fire? Why didn’t they make shelter? Why didn’t they walk out? Les has said many times, unless you were there, you can’t know. This is Survivorman Legends.
