History Channel’s Most Unhinged Reality Show (with Chris James)
should have got some zins for this a dip that would have been great something to pack in our lip look at this photo of Chris and I as little boys going fishing you you can tell that we we’ve been fishing for years because of the the age of the photo you can tell by the the filter I don’t I don’t know gr please what was your favorite fishing memory of us as kids Chris when we used a gun hold on there partner there’s only one type of fishing that requires a gun the ageold sport of Gator fishing hunting I
mean if you’re using a gun it’s technically hunting right say I don’t think what they’re doing is fishing no not at all I don’t think can’t even I don’t even think it’s hunting I think it’s like it’s something else you may be wondering who they is and it’s not them as inclusive as Chris may be come on man look at me how how more inclusive can I look thank you thank you thanks man we’re talking about the Swamp People on History Channel that sounds like such a derogatory term Swamp People is basically a show uh that follows these
uh people around the swamp yeah I mean there’s nothing nothing else to it except for everything what’s important to know about these folks though is that they are cun okay and what’s important to know about me is that I am from Louisiana do you know what that means Chris means you’re from Louisiana yes it does another point for me listen up now get ready to write this down the cun also known as Louisiana acadians are a Louisiana French ethnicity mainly found in the US state of Louisiana and surrounding GF coast states so you know
can’t write that fast yeah yeah write that down write that down let’s just get into the show let’s just get into the show please I noticed you got a little drink there you want to you want to pop it open and and take a sip right now I mean it’s 2:51 in the afternoon why not come on let’s hop on that boat baby this isn’t the best time to work sunglasses can you turn the lights up please welcome to the swamp oh Christ sake that’s that’s whoa where did you get that the gun store it’s fake paa works over there yes I got it in
Louisiana down at the bait and tackle yep where I got my outfit I can smell it from here are we wearing the same we’re wearing the same fishing vent oh the youth XL right well no this one’s just an adult medium I mean mine only fits half of my torso so mine goes to like holy yours looks pretty legit thanks it’s the same one as yours man I mean way to hook the audience though first thing start right away with Ultraviolence all right let’s hop in Troy is that his handwriting I doubt it also the intros for any like History
Channel or Discovery Channel show like this is way more serious than it needs to be it’s always the most cinematic and they’re just like look at RJ and J Paul he is oneh handing a hunting rifle right now that’s pimp the stock is heading right for his rib cage right now he’s he’s ready to go in Pierre Park King of the swamp Troy Landry is racing out to check his lines with his 15-year-old nephew Holden 15 that kid looks like a a strapping 35-year-old linebacker that boy is cornfed with Chase still on an out of town job Holden
has been filling in as his deck hand can we do that real quick can we do that that honestly I think mine was a little better it was I you could have given it a little bit more chest you know yeah there you go there you go there you go I like that one so far this season they’ve tagged 67 Gators in the first two days God damn I’m no expert but that doesn’t sound like light work where do you put them very proud of holding he’s going to make a good little hun and a good little fisherman cuz he pay attention to the details for
$50,000 what did he just say if you put a gun in my head and said tell me what he said I would pull the trigger for you I could not tell you it has a lot of pride in teaching the young guys in the family how to fish and hunt and not just to do it but to be one of the best at it that’s why I’m glad holding going to be with me I’m going to teach him what I can well that’s very sweet but I I I I would like to make the argument that I feel that it’s very difficult to judge who the best fisherman is yeah there’s a
lot of fishermen in the world I think more than uh an individual fisherman would expect more than on this River definitely more than on this River I think definitely the more I hear him talk the more I think he’s having an allergic reaction to something that bit him like an alligator you think he’s allergic to Gator you think that’s why he’s in the business it’s like kind of a Revenge story yeah or he doesn’t realize there’s like a chunk out of the back of his leg he’s like I didn’t even know I just I would even know down you know
well I mean look how low to the water this boat is right now he could get his ankle bit and no one would ever know I that I don’t like that Troy is eager to get started but as they get to their first line oh I don’t see it yet hold hold’s about to get a different lesson it looks cut Noy H hold’s about to get a different lesson from his grandpa wait did I miss something who the is n is that his dad’s name NY look at the subtitles H’s about to get a different lesson it looks cut NY oh my God is that cut NY is nky I’ve never heard is that
like a way of saying Uncle I’m pretty sure nky is nickname for Troy are you pulling my absolute and ball right now yeah I’m pulling I’m pulling and twisting I’m going to call you nkey from now on I was going to say I was going to call you nky but then you beat me too it I’m going to change your name in my phone and nky and then I’m going to like get a message from you in 3 days and forget that I did that and like what the is that a cut line is always bad news it means someone is stealing Gators right
off their lines Gator Turf War so that’s who he’s competing against also this guy’s got some like 2002 Slim Shady glasses on right now he really does I kind of with them also I kind of take back my comment from before about the nature of the competitive fishing I would argue that there aren’t many Gator Fishers that seems to be a pretty a pretty Niche art yeah I would think so so maybe he can be the best he bringing coroners out the Woodworks people that hadn’t fished alligators in years and this year has a little money to be made
so everybody want to go hunt Al all right let’s go see if that’s the only one they have to caption literally every single word that that guy says I was going to say there’s sometimes I do have to caption like TV shows this one I’m so glad we are well I mean the show is doing most of the work for us look he’s about to speak again he’s got more captions clean cut oh yeah that’s a freaking cut there’s always the normal captions but then when the show decides they’re going to throw up captions even if you didn’t turn them on is when you
really need them it’s when the show is like hey we know you didn’t ask for this but we’re going to do it anyways I hate when shows do it and I definitely don’t need it Ghost Adventures does that all the time when someone has like an accent that’s like thick but you can definitely understand what they’re saying yep deaths and unmarked Graves they got burn down that’s weird that is weird how did it get burned down I don’t know it was definitely just Zach being like Zach in the moment’s like huh I’ve never heard
this accent before I don’t I don’t see it nowhere I see it’s cut right at the tree a poke has beat them to the punch oh my God another cut line so so far we’re finding out that these people are really just getting screwed over by Gator poachers see they do not have a grip on this lake or this River could we argue that these guys are also poaching considering the fact that and I know you guys haven’t seen it yet but they are Point Blank Shooting these Gators in the head boy that pissed me off you better hope that I don’t catch it laziness no
that’s all that is it’s lazy people I tell you what it’s better that I don’t catch mother this guy talking about what he would do to them if he catches them I’ve seen what they do to Gators I can’t imagine what they do to a human man godamn if a body falls in this swamp River it’s not getting found how do you deal with a tur for like this I don’t know it depends on how within the law they are already how within the law is gator hunting like I know it’s a thing you can do and there’s laws around it but how close are these guys to that point
of the law I’m sure they pull guns on each other you know for Bluff all the time I was going to say yeah I think that’s just their natural instinct for any issue that arises in front of them Native American Hunters RJ and J Paul Mullen a have camped out overnight deep in Creole Bayou an area so remote they had to scout it in a helicopter the terrain looks pretty good man we going to do what we got to do when we get here yeah yeah down there okay so they had to scout this location with with a helicopter is it that worth
it we need to look this up what is the goal of gator hunting to quench the blood thirst that is a crazy impression the alligator can legally be hunted only in the southeastern United States there is no single method of alligator hunting depending on the circumstances Hunters commonly use is a combination of the following hook and line bow and arrow gig and snare firearm no specificity just cruise missile Tomahawk missile A1 warthog Sam turret listing off like all this military equipment like we could actually deploy the US military on these
Gator they literally had to do like a Call of Duty drop into this Zone say we just hear like a can you imagine just with a chopper Gunner just mowing down alligators J Paul’s put up the money for the 50 tags they secured in this area J Paul is like the alligator hunter version of Jake Paul obviously I was going say I’m hearing all I hear is Jake Paul taking on cre bio is actually uh taking a big risk yes uh I I don’t really want to do this that guy looks like he is he is much more satisfied being in the back of a
piz a shop I would be today the boys need at least 20 Gators to cover the cost of this trip how how much do these trips cost and how much can you sell a gator for it has to be so much money you think so do you think it’s like that much of a commodity I mean I I assume Gator anything costs a lot of money gator skin boots like things like that probably cost a lot of money oh keep talking keep talking sounds like you know a lot about uh a lot well we we both do cuz we we used to Gator hunt when we were kids you can throw up
another picture there left side right right they like what they see I bet they do that is a a weird way for the narrator to give us two cents they like what they see oh it’s an angry eight-footer first Gator of the episode way to tell us it’s an eight-footer when all we’ve seen is a head J Paul has to move fast I’m sorry I can’t stop laughing it Paul’s got to move fast J Paul has to move fast he’s pulling out the gun he’s pulling out the gun did you see the scope on that thing it’s one thing to pull out this rifle but another to like
be like I better put that 300 yard scope on it bus is oh my God have you ever played that um the Deer Hunter game where they you like snipe the deer and it shows you like the bones breaking and stuff oh God yeah I love one they’ve got that and then they’ve also somehow have got the POV of the Gator good shot bud it’s a nice shot buddy yeah yeah good shot man your accuracy at 2 feet is unparalleled the 8ot gator will fetch $240 at the buyer that’s money bro 240 bucks that’s it 240 and he said that they need to make 20 in a
day to pay off the trip yeah this is pretty lucrative I mean you’re looking at a $4,800 day but it looks like they’ve been out there for a half an hour and they got one so I don’t know they’re not they’re not off to a head start here I’m so loyal to you I would never do you wrong I’m soy loyal to you and I would like to tell you about a loyalty program called built the sponsor of today’s video you like that opening built is a loyalty program that lets you earn points on your rent and around your neighborhood here you go I think you deserve this

the the sleeveless button up is insane the custom sleeveless he did that himself I’m fired up like a T truck ready to get it and I’m ready to wear the hook I’m ready to put some bait on there and skin it ready to hammer down holy that was like maybe one of the best introductions I’ve ever had to a reality show cast member he somehow looks like he belongs there but then also doesn’t like he’s got pretty eyes yes he has styled hair like I think he has highlights let’s let’s let’s take a closer look at him the boys acquired 30
tags from Mr Jimmy the local land owner to cover their extra travel costs Jeremy and David are going to need to fill every tag oh we got over I don’t understand so are they are they just paying off boat fuel boat fuel must be expensive I think it’s that I think maybe they traveled out here cuz it seems like they keep going from like place to place around this region and so I wonder if these guys all travel within are they like paying off hotels yeah to cover The Best Western they’re going to have to cover every tag in this River
just like on Troy’s land it looks like they’ve got a poacher their Lin’s been cut and there’s no Gator to be found oh my God it’s the same thing that happened last time their entire Canal’s been picked clean by poachers good Lear at what point do these not work every line we’ve seen they’re like yeah they they cut it yeah that’s definitely a cut so far this season they have not had one successful line the boy spot something that would make any Swamper blood boil what is that oh we got over look at Dead alligator right
there this is what I don’t like to say 7 and 1/2t alligator it was from the last guys imagine imagine after the camera is cut they’re like all right they just toss it overboard tag it and then they just like in also like you just stumbled upon a dead one like is that not one you could just like toss in the back and be like all I guess we got a free one Junior Edward’s son Willie is back on the water I think I’m going to catch a big one this moment this season he’s venturing out from under the safety of the family
business and doing it all on his own he’s dead he’s going to die they’re setting him up to die in a reality show working as his daddy’s right-hand man Will’s been preparing to Captain his own boat all his life you working his daddy’s right-hand man right now I don’t like that he they’re calling him the captain of that boat that is that small you’re not a captain if you’re driving one of those he I he’s just I would I would give him pilot he makes people call him Captain yeah I’m the captain I’m the captain I’m the I’m
the I’m the captain I’m so hot I’m the captain dude this vest is kind of hurting but it comes at a price investing in a boat and supplies has tapped Willie out I hate to hit it again but I I I’ll show you how to tap a Willie out you know hey okay all right Willie secured 96 tags from a local landowner but before we can even get to his first line something grabs his attention hell yeah kind of bubbles we like to see it’s like a body floats up kind of bubbles we like to see that’s a competition they’ve been taking they’ve
been taking lines so Willie grabs his trusty treble hook just like his daddy taught him he can’t escape his father they won’t let him I don’t even know what to call the isms on this show but like the lines are so good just like his dad to him but snagging an alligator when you’re hunting solo could cost even an experienced Swamper his life here we got him I thought he was about to get yanked in but without a deck hand to help Pull It in he’s in a b your ass now big boy my gun at the Gator’s not slowing down and really needs to end this fight fast
damn it wasn’t loaded it wasn’t load I love how much he’s struggling there he’s just like like damn it he’s like God damn it he’s looking at the camera and he’s like help help cameraman just like sitting there like oh God we’re going to tip over he’s like pointing the gun down at the water and the cameraman is in the water like like down the barrel of the gun he secures the line with his boot but struggles to load the gun okay it wasn’t loaded that was it he’s using like a like a Civil War era FL ah hold on guys without his daddy’s
shotgun he’s only got one bullet in the chamber so this one-handed shot needs to count this is the most violent show I’ve seen ever when you by yourself it’s all on you it’s a lot of pressure it don’t take much you slip up you it take you set you back three or four days we’re going to see some captioning at some point that’s going to say unintelligible like they’re going to like they’re going to give up in Raceland Jeremy and David are trying to run the shallow channels of hutter’s narrow the back he is so into it look on
his face biting his lip and everything hard hard we are screwed that didn’t look as bad as they made it why did he tell him to take a hard left just buy it Jeremy and David don’t want to spend the night in this hostile swamp I wonder if I stand up oh yeah snake city right here anyone standing in swamps ever stresses me out more than anything I’ve waited through um had some friends that used to live in Virginia and they had this like I guess what you would call like a bog behind their uh like a couple blocks behind their house and we were like
kneed deep in the water and there was like leeches on our legs and stuff but that’s like a core like childhood memory you know like you didn’t care about that stuff when you were 12 13 years old you know I do now well we loved being out there um Graham why don’t you show us a photo of you as a young lad actually Graham you grew up in Louisiana yeah of course we got to spin that nose all the way around using Brute Force move it we got it we got it we have seen guns alligators death destruction all throughout this episode
but they’ have made them getting this boat stuck seem like it was the biggest problem they faced it’s probably not very easy to lift this boat it looks like it they got the they got that cornfed strength Jeremy and David finally get through Hunter’s narrow star open up now dude I told you it’d be worth it and they like what they see alligator Paradise these alligators ain’t even never seen a person I feel a little more confident I’m starting to grin like a POS me and car crap I’m getting excited I love that guy with no
expression like I’m grin like a PO going I’m so excited they had to know that has to be his thing like anytime there’s a confessional of him he’s like on like a high dose of mood stabilizers but then when he’s on those like candid shots he’s like it’s like every time I watch a show or a movie someone is always like a viking and poster child you you really can’t escape it you know so the boys’s getting moving hanging lines as fast as they can like open the day again a man it’s like you d g wedding night it’s
like your wedding night what is what is what is the implication there I I don’t I don’t know maybe he didn’t know even know what he was talking about like you just see him he’s like I dang what night and the other guy’s like what what you talking to me you talking to me RJ and J Paul have returned to the Rendevous point to meet their supply boat I know I know I know after running all their lines they’ve only snagged six gators barely worth $1,000 their investment in hunting this isolated area isn’t paying off it was a very uh sad feeling it’s
not good but like I telling J we we gamblers bro we always take a chance and if we buff we bust we bust we bust I literally God damn it and now they’ve got a bigger problem them G need to be fo in the we these G out they need to get these Gators to the buyer or they’ll spoil in the heat say they look like they WK they’re getting like rancid right now you think yeah that boat smells like death but their cousin Dylan who was supposed to be back with ice and fuel hasn’t sh up Dylan is dead he died on the way they
just cut to a shot of like some bubbles like in the water he is done with this kind of heat we’re going to lose all our C oh you see he’s rinsing them with the water so that they don’t spoil just when RJ and J Paul’s hopes were running out he is they catch a break that’s what all the shows do is they just say like the biggest problem in the world has just become us yeah if the thing that’s about to happen doesn’t happen it’s going to be bad and then it does just if we if we had just waited a little bit but they
make us feel like these guys are going to die out here why do they all have Iced Out earrings these are the gator hunting pretty boys we throw ice on them then we cover them up keep them cool that we when we bring to the buyers that the the the meat’s still good the hide’s still good let’s go home bro oh yeah the meat’s still good eat it and show us with gas in the tank and their catch on Ice Dylan will speed to the buyer while RJ and J Paul get lines hung in their Homeland territory that guy looks so cool it does look awesome I got
to say TR Landry is pushing out to the far reaches of the Bayou get away from poachers who ravaged his lines it gets under my skin because we work so hard to to do what we do and catch what we catch somebody come and steal from you right underneath your nose I forgot how hard this guy was to understand what do you call him conle oh uh nkey NY where am I bu on that tree there are such a loving family that he said he calls him my baby he’s a my baby sticking with his plan to pass down some swamp knowledge to his nephew try to tie
to uh something strong but yet kind of flimsy like that it’s like he’s going to pass down some swamp knowledge to his nephew man I can’t understand anything my uncle says but I just do this to make him happy I’m hoping to teach holding a little bit as we go being the age he is there’s nothing like letting him do it himself just starts giving him the sex talk baiting the line you no uh buz and bees that was good that was good thank you I’m getting better as I hear him more need to make absolutely sure that us doing a Cajun accent is not
racist I think this guy’s white finally said here’s a line you show me where you want to set it and we going to set it going to come back later and be like ah God damn it someone someone cut the line I swear to God if that happens we’re ending the episode we’re done good job good job let R indeed indeed I love the little songs that he sinks every single time he’s got a little catchphrase Line’s tight yeah no got J the Lion’s caught in the thick swamp grass okay so basically what happens in the episode is they go around they
either find Gators or they don’t they run into some issue maybe and then they find more Gators it’d be funny if someone has watched up till this point and they’re like oh God I just this has been so hard I thought that they were just making jokes yo play the show you play the show I want to see if the line’s cut y take your hand out of there move the up close shot on him now act scared Troy I think they feed these Gator GoPros next time you got a good shot shoo what if it was one of those moments where he’s
like’s got to get the shot before the gator comes clean into the boat shoots his uncle’s foot oo good shot chny how many times do you think they shot that high five this is the face in preparation of a high five that you have failed at the landries finally have a gator 1 2 three I feel like at this point since we know how the show goes like I feel like we really just want to see the Epic conclusion right yeah because it’s just going to keep cycling through all of the different people but you know with these shows
they always end with the most intense you know the most intense clip of the day well let’s let’s see how this how this Square oh of course oh you remember this line yeah this is the one I had said this is the one you said absolutely soon as I realized the line was tight oh look at it I looked at him and I could see the glow on his face and it was like a little kid on Christmas day that he was so excited that is not a little kid he is not little he looked like a 35y old man on Christmas that is a unit oh we got a big one there’s a 12T Giant on
the bank on him but something’s got Troy alarmed it looks like it I don’t know how well he’s hooked I don’t know if the line Fred a big alligator like that if he start fighting can’t take a chain if the Gator’s broken free getting on the bank with it would be suicide so why are we doing this deliberation right it’s going to be suicide just pull the trigger I think Troy is like it’s my time boy what has been stopping them before from actually you know being a slightly good uh Marksman and just taking the shot
from a distance I was going to say you’ve got that scope that thing’s like seven feet away just like well I don’t think his gun has the scope okay I I still feel like he could make it work I think he can make it work okay I mean he’s 35 years old I think he can handle it try to shoot one in the perfect spot all right I’m going tell you when when it look like he’s about to move wait till I tell you hold so Holden will have to make a shot from the unstable boat okay yeah see they’re just they’re just manufacturing excuses for the for these
people being bad shots look at this distance you would have to be blackout drunk to miss this shot even then I think you would hit it so Holden will have to make a shot from the unstable boat he’s right there he’s right there and may not get a second chance him him him hurry up him he was that was a life hold it shoot him shot him what oh God also did they just bring enough bullets for tags like did they just bring one bullet per tag so they’re like if you missed a shot like why didn’t they bring enough to where it’s like all
right shoot him again Holden back on dry land oh my God finally DAV and Jeremy arrive at the buyer with the day catch and the gator they’ll split with the Molen AES hey what’s going on fellas hey look at this man what’s going on bro how’s day man it’s going to be the hardest conversation to understand this is is a picture I’ve seen in person before I I will say they’re not exaggerating the outfits at all let’s see how they settle up in the last 50 seconds of the episode you going to help me get him out you got it brother there
you go they’re using a forklift Jesus Christ how did they get it in the boat now you’re looking 11 now huh I don’t like it hanging like that this reminds me of how much I uh hated gator hunting when we used to do it I mean but we had to make ends meat we had to make $122,000 a month yeah you know what this actually the show reminds me of this show reminds me of like Mountain Monsters but if they were real and in Louisiana that was sort of the vibe I was getting it’s also just giving like redneck River Monsters yeah and like
taking out all of the educational aspects I can see it oh yeah right suit up well I think that’s that that that’s plenty of gator hunting for me today I I think never enough for me I’m gonna watch this for the rest of the night oh okay well you you enjoy that um I’m going to go stand in a subway station like this I’m going to go stand on my front porch see how many odd looks I can get no I’m going to go to my local River and just see what I can just blend in my Midwest River full of crocodiles yes good God all right well thanks for
coming uh and and and reminising with me Chris uh you can subscribe to actually cover the entire screen no just let’s stop making Graham do all that work let’s let’s just let him uh Graham just put like a really bad screenshot of Chris’s uh YouTube page on this SC gr is in the other room right now he’s not even at his computer he’s just he’s so tired of this no Chris I always like to ask people to you know talk about something in the comments that’s like either related to the video or completely unrelated it depends on
feeling on the day what should they what should they talk about today you didn’t tell me about this um ah man talk about the importance of controlling the population of gators in the Southeast region of the United States and why they all need to be gunned down from behind I think some are endangered so you really shouldn’t say that man I don’t think these guys care these guys or these guys well both actually you know yeah that’s right we’re calling you out okay uh all right uh that’s thank you for having me Andy yeah no no no
