KH3006 you were the first one to bring up his bare feet as an example of how intune with nature he is. The truth is there have been many groups of people who were just as intune with nature if not more so than him that wore some form of shoe. It is merey a gemmick he uses to sell books, hats, t-shirts and drive hits to his website. It causes people to rememeber him. It's about money not survival. To be fair, so no one thinks I'm just picking on poor Cody, charging head first into nature thinking you are going to kick it's butt, and acting like Rambo so folks think you are cool is just as foolish. You do need to be intune with your surroundings to survive, and having some modern gear can be handy too. We need to remember that it is just a TV show and it's primary reason for existing is to make the people involved with it money, not to save your life. They show both extremes of the spectreme, and finding a good balance between these two would most likely keep the majority of us alive longer that trying to imitate either one.
