An Espanola man wants to get on the TV show, Survivor-man. Blake Priddle interviewed the star of the TV show, Les Stroud, a couple of years ago and got hooked on the concept. Priddle took in a survival camp to get a feel for what’s involved and had some unique experiences including sleeping in a shelter, find your own food, start a fire without matches and he ate a water snake. Priddle has produced a video to help him get on the show but he needs online votes. To vote for Priddle go to www.lesstroud.ca and click the competition link.
