Transcript

00:00It was a freak accident.

00:17One second changed my entire life.

00:30I'm feeling a little bit anxious before we head out.

00:43Since my accident, I've been a lot more cautious and I realized my own mortality.

00:53I don't know what's going to happen.

00:54I haven't been out in a little bit.

00:57I really hope that it feels the way it used to feel.

01:06Okay, so I'm on the bush today.

01:08It's very wet.

01:09You can probably hear the rain behind me or all around me.

01:13Okay, hello everybody.

01:14Today, we have an awesome guest.

01:17This is friend and fellow canoeing savant YouTuber, Joe Robinette.

01:23Hey folks, Joe here, Joe here.

01:25Joe here, Joe here.

01:26Joe and Wolfie here.

01:27He is a survival bushcraft guy but more so just a backcountry camper.

01:33He's built some amazing shelters and he's an OG when it comes to the outdoor YouTube world.

01:39I've only got a small backpack on and inside that I only have four pieces of gear.

01:45It's a beautiful day.

01:46A little bit overcast, a little chilly.

01:54Hey guys, how are you doing?

01:55Joe here.

01:56I'm super excited for this video, for this project.

01:58This is something I've wanted to do for a really, really long time camping off of a bike.

02:03I don't remember much from my accident.

02:08I don't remember much at all from the days leading up or the accident day.

02:14It was just a normal day, a Friday afternoon and we were having friends over and he decided

02:22he wanted to get on his bike.

02:28I didn't put my helmet on because I was just going around the block and I never made it back.

02:43I waited for about three hours before they let me in to see him and they already had him completely sedated.

02:55My first thought was, this can't be happening, this cannot be happening.

03:01The doctor said to me, because I was positive, and he said to me, you act like you're expecting a miracle.

03:09And I said, I am expecting a miracle.

03:13Three weeks in a coma, airlifted to multiple hospitals and permanent nerve damage in my hand.

03:24It was just a year prior that my youngest son had passed away.

03:29Joey didn't remember anything.

03:31He, you know, he would think that he heard Isaac out in the hallway and that was very difficult.

03:40To make my mom even go through that again herself and to relive it myself, it was really bad.

03:48I could have easily died.

03:50I could have easily been a vegetable and I'm very blessed.

03:53I'm very lucky to be here.

03:55Once I woke up and was home for a couple days, I started really focusing on my career, my life,

04:02what I could be losing, what I needed to do and stuff.

04:04And not only that, my use of my hand, the use of protecting my family, the use of providing for

04:10my family, playing with my children, it has changed my life completely.

04:17Rehab sucked.

04:18There's no getting around it.

04:20I have to do things that feel uncomfortable.

04:24But I understand the outcome.

04:26If I don't use it, I lose it type thing, right?

04:29So I have been busting my ass doing as much stuff for my hand as I possibly can.

04:45The plan for this week is I have a small bushcraft style backpack loaded to the gills, but I only

04:54have one backpack.

04:55We're going to fly in on a float plane, me and the pup, and we're going to stay out for six nights.

05:00I have minimal gear, minimal camping gear, so I'm going to supplement that with natural materials

05:05and natural resources and food from the lake and wherever else I can find it, but mainly from the lake.

05:10The problem on going on a solo trip like this is whether or not I'm going to be able to hack it.

05:16Can I paddle all day long? Can I set up a tarp? Can I build a shelter? It takes a lot of nimble,

05:23intricate stuff with your fingers. Can I even do that?

05:25I'm nervous. I'm a little nervous. I feel like I'm more nervous now when he goes out

05:33than I would have been before. I just think he needs to prove to himself that he's capable of

05:38doing what he used to be able to do, that he can stay out there for a week long.

05:44I try not to let on how worried I am because I don't want that to discourage him, but it worries me.

05:50It worries me how hard he's going to push himself and if he's going to know when he needs to take a break.

05:55Returning to the wild, being outside with a disability means that I have to adapt things.

06:06I do have a worry that I'm not going to get back into the same rhythm

06:09that I used to have. That is a big concern for me.

06:25We took a bush plane to get into this location. There's no roads, no access any other way.

06:45We're about 300 clicks from civilization in the middle of the wilderness.

06:48The boy. Right here looks good, buddy. It's a little chilly. I can feel my hands starting to cramp up and ache up a little bit.

06:57I might even need to boil some water in my pot and then keep it next to me while I'm laying down because warmth really, really does help quite a bit.

07:05And that's the time I have the most grip strength is when my hand is warm.

07:20All right, so we've got the middle of the tarp there. Make some toggles up.

07:34All right.

07:35All right, we have a problem. I need to do everything again, I think.

07:49Yeah, it's going to take me a minute to get back into the groove of the swing of things.

07:57All right. So the other, the other cord is probably, the problem is it's too slip, slippy, not grippy.

08:04Too slip, no grip.

08:08Ooh, toggle down, touch. I think I'm going to lay right here. I'll be nice and covered.

08:15There's room for Wolfie. Freaking Joe's your uncle, buddy.

08:19I know how to camp.

08:35Shelter's a bit small, but we're one backpacking it up. We're going to build one. That's the plan.

08:41Build a big shelter, but not tonight. We just have to get set up tonight.

08:45Wolfie. Wolfie.

08:48I am super happy to spend time with my dog outside. He brings a lot.

08:52Good job, buddy.

08:54Good job, buddy. Good job today. You good boy, eh?

09:03Certainly no way that I've dealt with everything yet that's happened to me even as far back as two years ago.

09:09Everything kind of just compounded on me, and I wasn't doing the right thing either.

09:16So this trip is going to be me getting over a lot of that. I hope I want that from this trip.

09:22All right, we hooked into a fish. Well, I decided to go out for a little paddle, see if I can catch anything.

09:33I hooked into a decent laker. I want to say, like, that big. This is probably about that big.

09:37But for real, good-sized laker. And slipped out of my hand. And now the rest of the fish are eating the laker.

09:49There's a little bit of a massacre on my boat we've got to clean up, but that's just proof that I did actually do what I said.

09:55It's been a very long day. Got up super early in anticipation for this trip. Now we're here.

10:06I'm freaking ready to go to bed, though. I'm tired. I'm hungry.

10:11We couldn't pay for this experience, honestly. Eating freeze-dried chili.

10:16It's a little hot, buddy.

10:17Look at what I'm looking at. This view.

10:25Six-star restaurant. Ten-star restaurant. Gordon Ramsay's got nothing on me.

10:36Slept real good last night. It was pretty cold. I have a one-degree bag, and it used every little inch of that.

10:45Off to find a good spot to make a permanent camp for, like, four nights. Pretty excited about that.

10:55Battling this wind with a single blade and a fully loaded canoe is not something I'm very used to.

11:11Mossy. That's good. Very good. Yeah, mossy. It's got lots of building material.

11:18Cool. I think this is where we're going to call home. So what I have to do is remove a couple

11:28little trees near me so that I have a clear open sky above. The smoke can escape. No worries. I'm going

11:33to have a fire inside my shelter. The water's right there. It's very mossy, very wet. So it'll be good.

11:39I have to make a flat bed, so I'm going to use some boughs and some extra moss and some logs and stuff

11:45to make that. And, uh, it won't get done tonight. There's no way. But it'll be somewhat done and I'll

11:52still sleep in it.

12:22I do have to put gloves on. It's hurting touching the, uh, any, any stick at all.

12:27I brought gloves, little thin gloves for working with, and I really need to put them on. I'm going

12:31to do that right now. Every time I touch anything, even these, even these needles off the spruce,

12:36it's just like nails. It's like, it's like glass shards all on my skin everywhere. It just is a horrible

12:42feeling. It doesn't, it's not the end of the world. I know the pain won't last or anything like that.

12:46It's just, if I have gloves on, I don't feel that. So I'm going to, I'm going to wear them.

12:58I like touching things. You know what I mean? I like, I like walking on barefoot. I like having

13:01my shirt off. I like touching things on my hand. You know, I like my skin touching nature.

13:05So it's like, I don't really want to wear gloves all the time, but I don't want

13:08a shitty hand feeling all the time either. So a small price to pay.

13:21My idea about, uh, just sleeping under the stars tonight probably isn't a great idea,

13:25considering it keeps raining on and off all day. I had to cover up my,

13:29my bowels for my bed because they're going to get soaking wet.

13:38I remember today's Isaac's anniversary while I was doing this.

13:59And it kind of just hit me.

14:00My brother Isaac passed away on May 24th, two years ago. Almost a year later on May 17th,

14:11I got knocked out unconscious and I was asleep for three weeks. So I was definitely asleep for his

14:20one year anniversary passing. I just feel like I should have done more.

14:24I raised that kid like, like my son. He didn't have a dad, just like I didn't have a dad. I just feel bad for my mom.

14:42Isaac was my baby.

14:52He was a very kind, very generous person.

14:56It's important for me to spread his ashes today. To me, it's important.

15:13I was hoping for a nice sunset. I might still get that. I don't think it'll be like yesterday, but that's okay.

15:29I asked for him at the hospital. I got asked to talk to him and they wouldn't let me.

15:37Then I got home and they still wouldn't let me.

15:39Let me call Isaac. What's going on? Where is Isaac? Let me call him. Why can't I call him? I started to get angry.

15:44And my mom and my wife had to come in and tell me two days after I woke up from my coma that my brother

15:53had actually died.

15:57My brain didn't let me remember that.

16:03So I had to learn it for a second time, which hurt a lot again.

16:08Oh, Isaac.

16:13Isaac.

16:17Isaac, I hope I never forget you, man.

16:22I hope the memory never fades at all.

16:26I hope the feeling never fades either.

16:29You're worth it.

16:30I hope he's at peace.

16:36I hope he's at peace.

17:00I hope he has peace.

17:06So today I really wanted to restructure my shelter.

17:20I really needed to fix the floor, make a level bed.

17:23I even contemplated just using a tarp and not even doing the natural shelter thing, just

17:28putting the tarp around it for a couple different reasons, but that's the reason that I came

17:34here and there's enough materials right around, no problem, I can do it.

17:39So I'm going to do it.

17:41It's a lot of work and it's a nice day.

17:43I'm feeling very good.

17:44It's a good feeling, it is coming back to me.

17:51I'm going to take a break.

18:08After that, I'm going to gather some more moss and patch in the holes that I can really see

18:25that need it.

18:26As far as the shelter, it's like 99% done.

18:30It's basically just a tripod tied together, raised up, some support pieces on top of it.

18:43Yeah.

18:44Pretty cool.

18:45Last night, I spread the ashes that I had with me into the water and just kind of had

18:57a good cry out there.

19:02The worst thing I can imagine is forgetting him.

19:07So I just want to keep, I talk to him all the time, I just want to keep doing that.

19:23I just miss him, I don't know, I just, I don't know how to get over it.

19:44How's that for dexterity?

19:46Ba-bam, son.

19:51I hooked into a fish.

19:59Pretty happy with that, nice little leg trout.

20:08Oh, third time's the charm.

20:15Oh, that was my fault, sorry.

20:20So we got basically a finished shelter, all in one and a half days I'd say, not even.

20:25I've never built one of these before and I'm pretty, pretty pleased with the progress.

20:30I cannot lie, at the beginning of the day, it was daunting.

20:35I feel very accomplished, which is nice.

20:38I haven't had that feeling in a long time.

20:41Sitting at home for the past year was really bad.

20:44I just felt like a loser, like I was worthless.

20:48And now being out here, even though it's something as silly as just building a fort in the woods,

20:55you know what I mean?

20:56It's like, it's one thing I'm good at.

20:58I thrive at it.

21:01And now being out here is really good for you.

21:09I've got a lot of people who are needing to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to have the great things in the woods.

21:19And you know what?

21:20Where are you at?

21:21Where are you?

21:22Or you know why?

21:23I don't know why.

21:25I can't believe you.

21:26Today was an exploration day, got me on the water a little bit more than I was in the

21:41past.

21:42Exploring, I also needed to get rocks, and I got the rocks, so that happened.

21:45I explored, I found where the portage was.

21:53Wolfie got to run quite a bit, which is awesome, because he slept the whole day away the previous

21:57day.

22:00Well, I figured today, day four, I should build myself a chair.

22:17So I whipped up a little tripod, and I carry this little tiny piece of material, it's so

22:22thin, it's still nylon, it's just literally like a bag tired of sitting in the dirt, no

22:26more dirt merchant Joe.

22:29I was thinking to myself today how lucky I am to be able to jump right back in the swing

22:34of things.

22:36I do feel like my old self again.

22:39There's been a few hurdles since the accident.

22:41I was hung up on pain pills, I was drinking, I was depressed beyond belief.

22:48I thought everything was taken from me, and I thought I couldn't do what I loved anymore,

22:53provide for my family anymore.

22:56A bad day is where I'm holed up in bed crying because the pain is so much that I'm like depressed

23:02beyond belief.

23:04I put my family through bullshit, crazy nonsense.

23:10The main goal is to be a father to my kids.

23:12Like that's, that's the driving force.

23:14I don't want to be an absentee father in any single way.

23:18My family gave me a journal.

23:22The adventure begins here, and they wrote me all a lovely note for my birthday before

23:28I left, and I didn't read it until I came out here, and in an emerald's note, it said

23:34make sure you bring your fire starter, and I didn't even read it, and I brought it, so.

23:37It was not even a fire starter, she didn't even put Vaseline on it, it was just a thing,

23:40just a thing we had.

23:41I love her, I love my kids, and I wanted to keep something that reminded me of her.

23:47That sunset behind me is crazy, oh my god, this is crazy, this is crazy, holy smokes.

24:05This is an epic night.

24:15So today I had a lot of time to think.

24:16I woke up in my shelter, had a fire, had some tea, made some breakfast, just chilled

24:21out, went for a paddle with Wolfie.

24:22My head is very clear, it's like day five I think.

24:25I'm not only comfortable, I'm like, I'm where I need to be right now, and my mind always

24:29starts to work properly out here, starts to give me good ideas and thoughts.

24:33And I figured, what's a little pain?

24:37I think that I can condition my hand to not feel like it's touching hot shards of glass

24:43when I'm touching things that are a little bit bumpy.

24:45I find myself grabbing things with my right hand always instead of my bad hand and overcompensating.

24:51That's going to do two things.

24:52It's going to keep my bad hand bad, and it's going to overwork my other arm and my other

24:56hand.

24:57And I don't want to do that.

24:58That's not why I want to be here, out here doing things, because it's like I want to just

25:02use it as much as possible and I feel like it's only going to get better with use.

25:07I want to try to get a bow drill fire going today.

25:10What I need to do is get eastern white cedar, hearth board, and spindle.

25:14Oh, precarious.

25:16Yeah, that's bone dry.

25:21Sweet.

25:22I'm going to make my bearing block out of birch wood, and I'm going to make my bow out of

25:32a birch sapling.

25:51I have made fire.

25:52I'm shaking.

25:53I'm so excited.

25:54I'm shaking.

25:55Woo!

25:56Man, today couldn't have went better.

26:00Still got it.

26:01Still got it.

26:02My hand was pretty good today.

26:10I made the decision to stop babying it at all.

26:13I feel like my grip strength might be getting a bit better too.

26:16I didn't lose my passion, my creativity in the outdoors.

26:20Oh, boy.

26:22The shelter, man.

26:23I can't even wait to get into it.

26:24Like, I just love spending time in there.

26:26It's sad that it's the last night in it, but I'm very happy that I was able to do it in

26:31the time frame that I had, and it's really cool.

26:34And it looks pretty sweet too.

26:43But if you don't like focusing on the house, the summer is really cool.

26:57Even if you don't have to have a ceiling, you can't just go back there.

27:06I'm going to see what's going on really.

27:08I'm going to see what's happening.

27:10Being able to be out here and do everything on my own, being independent again, even as

27:30far as taking care of Wolfie, I feel back to the old Joe.

27:40I'm going to sleep up on a rock above the water, which is so awesome, and I can have a little

28:06tiny smokey fire next to me until I fall asleep, and I think that'll be sufficient enough for

28:11me to just cowboy camp, not worry about a shelter overhead.

28:14Cool.

28:28Boom!

28:29Yeah, boy!

28:36Peace!

28:37I'm going to get an early bedtime, you know, sundown's around 10 o'clock out here, so about then,

28:56I get up pretty early tomorrow morning, I've got a decent paddle and a few portages that

29:01are unknown.

29:02Oh, and the wind is supposed to kick up like crazy tomorrow, and I'm paddling right into

29:06it with a single blade, so I'd like to get out on the water as early as possible for that

29:10too.

29:11So, let's wait for the water.

29:31I was scared, I was apprehensive, I was nervous about this.

29:53There's a lot of unknowns going into it, man, every day was a surprise out there.

29:58Standing back and looking at that completed shelter, spending night after night in it,

30:09having a fire in there with my dog, man, it's just like choice.

30:12It's exactly, exactly what I needed.

30:23Dogs hold a special place in my heart, they've been super impactful, super important to me.

30:28Wolfie, he was one of the reasons I woke up from my coma.

30:46Every time they would lower down all the sedations and everything, she would have me talk to him

30:50a lot to try to see what we could get out of him before they'd have to put him back under.

30:54One of the last times that they had to do that, I was playing Sounds of Wolfie.

31:01I heard him wooing, like, I heard him doing his call.

31:12He actually said something back to us, like, Wolfie or something, I can't even remember

31:17what the words, but it was just so much excitement that, like, he knew that sound.

31:21I could have died, man.

31:22I could be dead right now.

31:23But here you are.

31:24Yeah.

31:25Thank God.

31:26It's really weird.

31:27I can't explain being in the coma or anything.

31:28It's such a crazy feeling.

31:29I've lived a whole other life.

31:30I remember my wife just saying nice words.

31:31I remember just soothing energy from my wife.

31:37The doctors in the hospital, they were telling me I was hopeful, too hopeful.

31:38I needed to.

31:39And I said, you have no idea how stubborn this man is.

31:40And I think the best therapy is actually him being out there and doing these things

31:44that gives him that strength back.

31:45When he is out in the bush, he is more able to think straight.

31:46And I think he gets a lot of inspiration.

31:47When he is out in the bush, he is more able to think straight.

31:48And I think he gets a lot of inspiration.

31:49When he is out in the bush, he is more able to think straight.

31:50And I think he gets a lot of inspiration.

31:51When he is out in the bush, he is more able to think straight.

31:56And I think he gets a lot of inspiration.

32:00It always happens that when I'm out there for an extended time by myself with the dog,

32:07what have you, I start to think clearly.

32:09The worst times of my life always, always, always have led me to think straight.

32:14And I think he gets a lot of inspiration.

32:19It always happens that when I'm out there for an extended time by myself with the dog,

32:24what have you, I start to think clearly.

32:26The worst times of my life always, always, always have led to something out of this world.

32:32Phenomenal.

32:33I think that wallowing in your self-defeat and your own bullshit is never going to help anything.

32:42All the bad things I was doing, all the pain pills I was doing, the life I was living, it's done.

32:49And the wilderness is my savior.

32:56Come.

32:57Come.

32:58I feel like this was both a closing of a chapter and a beginning of something new.

33:02Looking forward, all I want to do is be very healthy.

33:06I want to be very healthy for a few different reasons.

33:09Camping is a huge part of it.
