  3. this doesnt effect my opinion because its what two other people are saying about him if we had more accusations then you could fully decide on your opinion of chris.

  4. My opinion about Chris is that he is a strong guy who chases in what he believes in. Even after he lost all those pounds, he was strong, not physically, but mentally. He knew what he wanted and he just kept chasing his dream.

  5. I think Chris is a smart guy to go and live life. I may not agree with the burning of all your info and money even though the symbolism of why he did it makes sense I would not have burned that stuff. I can agree with wanting to travel on your own like that. I have the same idea to do so, so I think Chris is just a motivator of exploration and that you don't need false happiness by money and things. But true happiness comes from experiences.

  6. my opinion of Chris is that he was a fighter. He wanted to show everybody that he wasn't weak. He didn't want to leave until he felt like leaving and he thought that he still had to stay for some odd reason that i don't know why. And no one ever will. But yeah Chris is a fighter.

  7. My thoughts of Chris stays the same for me. It was his decision to go out into the wild and eventually die. I think Chris wanted to live life to the fullest, but he took it to far. He was dying and stayed in Alaska until he eventually died. In my eyes i see him as a stupid person. He wanted to grow up and live a full life, but what he did wasn't doing that, it was him basically flipping a coin for life or death every day. This guy is pretty dumb.

  9. I just think he had a vision of something else than all that like he could of wen to Harvard law school made a ton of money had a new car but he decided to go to alaska by himself trying to live in the woods an he also passed up on tracy

  10. My opinion didn't change. Chris seems like a unique person not wanting material posesions wanting to live off of nature etc and to live how he wanted. The documentry did show how he most likely died instead of poison which is interesting.

  11. ive had the same opinion about chris since the movie first started. I think he is crazy for leaving without telling anyone and i dont know why he would want to live alone but thats not my choice. I think chris is brave and strong for surviving that long. He did a huge mistake by eating that berry but life is full of mistakes. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do
