If you are a fan of survival shows, then you simply cannot miss out on History’s ‘Alone.’ The reality series, which premiered in 2015, is well-known for challenging some of the best survivalists as they try to not only live in the wild but have to stay away from any form of human communication. Consider the seventh season (aired in 2020) of the competition, which introduced a new twist, asking the participants to survive for 100 days in Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories of Canada, with a cash prize of one million dollars awaiting the victor.

Roland Welker Continues to Live an Adventurous Lifestyle

Winner Roland Welker won the million dollars prize for surviving 100 days in the competition and was given the titles “The 100 Day King” and “The Last Bushman.” He has since gone back to living an adventurous lifestyle in the open spaces of the state of Alaska. The Alaska Registered Big Game Guide is a man of many talents, including trapping, logging, gold mining, and hide-tanning. He is also a frontiersman and pioneer with a YouTube channel with over 12K subscribers. His Instagram account has a significantly larger fanbase with around 30K followers. He likes to travel to Pennsylvania and spend time with his father and friends whenever possible.
