4 Days Solo Survival | Limited Gear4 Days Solo Survival | Limited Gear

Among the outdoors and homesteading channels near Xander Budnick's size, the busy ones were Nate Petroski and Field Days, both running above their usual pace. Outdoor Tom, B2B Castaways and Kamoka Pearl were quieter than normal, and Xander's channel sat in that slower company, drawing noticeably less each day than it typically does.

Nothing new went up, so the week belonged to the back catalog. The freshest piece, "4 Days Solo Survival | Limited Gear," is eighteen days old and still the video pulling in the most each day.

Right behind it is a trip from last December, "7 Days Surviving Alone in the Amazon," nearly as lively as a video almost three weeks old. Further back, "7 Days Solo Survival on Shipwreck Island | No Food, Water, or Shelter" is well over a year old and remains the biggest of the three by far. Three solo trips, three settings, and the formula in the titles barely changes: one person, a set number of days, and as little as possible to work with.

The subscriber count held steady, just shy of two million.
