--Contradicts Krakauer--

does it?

Yeah, in one part of the film, Ron goes the University of Alaska where the seeds and berries were analyzed. The people who conducted the experiments stated on the film that they got numerous phone calls asking about the cause Chris McCandless's death, and said that they were tired of saying over and over again that the conclusion was that the berries weren't toxic even toxic enough to do what was theorized in the book.

Being a former Force Recon U.S. Marine who has undergone extensive survival training and having read several accounts of how Mr. McCandless was outfitted and given his background it is my opinion he was ill equipped to survive long term and starved himself to death. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.42.26.163 (talk) 06:38, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Krakauer is out to romanticize his subject -- as the Marine above has pointed out, Mr. McCandless was very badly outfitted for the skills he possessed, which is a bit mystifying to me because one of Jack London's short stories is very explicitly about, well, the kind of fate that await people who venture out into the wilderness without survival skills. If they are in the same part of the afterlife I think it is rather certain Jack London is less than happy with Mr. McCandless.174.98.43.150 (talk) 18:14, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Much of this article seems to pull--unattributed--from the Terra Incognita films site. Not cool. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.99.215.24 (talk) 00:59, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

The plot stated is incorrect. The content listed under section "Filming" is basically what the "plot" was about.
