How to cook a pigeon ON a tin can

[crzyginger]

How did you make that fire (marerials)

[v2jay100]

yumm yumm this vid just made me hungary and why didn't you give your dog some he looked hungry too! lol Def going to try it, Nettles and Pigeon breast.... humm awesome!

[LuciferDaFallenAngel]

Catch the pigeon ! catch the pigeon !

[rmstudio]

Sorry better question would be to ask "Why" you would want to eat a pigeon... Rats of the sky... They carry so many disease and are down right nasty. I eat many things I am not timid but Pigeons I'll pass.

[hultonclint]

Or, if you're in the UK, just walk one mile and you'll run into a town.

We used to call this a "hobo stove"...because urban hobos had tin cans. Dunno where the tin cans are in the bush!

[aceshigh8881]

the doggy wants some

[NickInDetroit]

Great, but c'mon, give your puppydog a bite, please!

[hamsters4ever]

I've tried looking it up and people say that city pigeons are edible but they should not be your entire diet. So can I eat a city pigeon once in a blue moon since you know, times are tough? If not anything else that is common in the city of Las Vegas? I've walked around in the actual desert parts some and sometimes see lizards and rodents. But they are fairly small. Also, what else should you use to improvise as a cooking plate? Since tin cans aren't a common find in the middle of nowhere.

[ITReviewer]

@hamsters4ever just go to the nearest walmart. they have tin can's now.

[hamsters4ever]

@ITReviewer I could also pick up some spare underwear while I'm there. I hate it when you find yourself in the middle of nowhere and when you escape and all of the world cheers for your miracle... That's when you realize you weren't wearing any pants.

[ITReviewer]

@hamsters4ever Ha, that would help too.Have a good day.

[jaydngoudie]

what is that army fold out piece called that you put your flaming tin in with the mesh , fibreglass, n fuel? the cooker , the fold out thing whats it called?

[UTK16]

Whats the intro "song" ?



[gawletap]

Sorry no idea what its called

[magicjoey69]

good video, can you tell me how you can tell if nettles are 2nd year nettles please?? love your videos

[aiwa741]

Nice video! And Pigeon taste pretty good as well!

[bradmacaboy]

That is beautiful scenery. Great vid. Are nettles the same as Thistle leaves?

[tofudogg]

What happened to the rest of the bird?

[fistplusyourface]

The dog drooled!

[mrpain708]

Lol the dogs like " C'mon bitch feed me"

[pcjsleader]

That dogs like.." c'mon man, do I gotta catch my own bird or what?"

[xXKOSTRALXx]

Where I`m from when we get hungry we just order a pizza.

[njmvermont]

theres alot of morning doves in vt where i am and shure enough there a game bird here. is there any health risks in eating them greater than in a wild turkey on partrige because i eat those all the time. i was just wondering if doves have any parasites or bactearias i should worry about. my spelling sucks but u get te point

[Newbie49]

There's only so much of a wood pigeon you can eat when there's a Labrador waiting for the rest...

[ace69errrr]

the dog wont even try to eat it lmfao

[Morclaw]

Mora knife !

[MrLotharofhillpeople]

That was brilliant. Now I want to practice this.

[infiernoboy1]

quick question here, would you recommend drinking my piss as side drink? lmao

[fixxxer101us]

@infiernoboy1 Yes you should drink your own piss it will make you smarter if you do, try sharing it with your friends too so it will help them as well.

[doh1959]

@fixxxer101us id drink beyonces piss

[DragonFalls141]

is it only the breasts u can cook or can you cook other bits? plz plz plz answer!

[CliffStamp]

@DragonFalls141 You can butcher then entire thing like a chicken if you want, but there is simply very little meat outside of the breast meat.

[fixxxer101us]

@DragonFalls141 there are many different pieces on the bird you could eat, anything that is meat or what looks like meat is eatible, it might not taste that well but it will provide you with what you need to survive, but as they said before the bird is very small and harvesting more then the breast meat would be difficult, best to get more then one if your really hungry.

[createrman1999]

Best vid ever that is

[TheTrueJBV3737]

hmm tasty. I rather grouse personally.

[SchismMax]

Make sure you wash your knife, it still has the germs from the uncooked meat on it. Last thing you want in a survival situation is salmonella.

[MATEOTL86]

When the world gets fucked over, I'm moving to your house.

[LedgendaryWaffle]

@MATEOTL86 :D. MEE TOO.

[MATEOTL86]

@LedgendaryWaffle I think its important to teach our kids bushcraft skills.

[HomeMadeGunNut]

Kinda wondering how did you wash your hands after gutting it or don't you need to?

[krysks04]

clever

[kife42]

for those wondering why he's wasting the rest of the bird, he's eating the best part cause it's tasty, not because he's surviving. good video. made me hungry. only thing tho, the coffee can fry pan and stove are too heavy and bulky.

[Frostype]

I hope he gave some to the dog)) It was waiting so patiently for him to cook it))

[endlessnteer]

lol he sounds loike a brummay

[CiaranRooney125]

Poor Dog, Licking his lips :)

[VeronicasMidget]

Hi I just wanted to ask, is it legal in UK woodland to slingshot pigeon? also is it legal to use snares for rabbit and squirrel?

Thanks for any advice with this.

[TheSkootertrash]

Looking at the scenario, if I were in a survival situation trying to survive in a world run over with anarchy, hiding and scraping my existance in the urban ruins or out in the woods, I really wouldn't care much about the lead content of the bird. Cooking it in the first place would be a huge luxury. And yes, I would feed my dog too. He would be my absolute best friend in that situation.

[PapaGrizzly1970]

It would be nice, maybe in another video, to see you share even a small portion with your dog. If it came to where I only had two crackers to eat...my pup's gettin one of them. Just an idea for ya. :-)

[TheDumnAs]

this is like a new bear grylls but more peacful i like his its cool

[avau77]

@TheDumnAs bear grylls is a fake...iv seen him teach stuff that is gona risk someones life...this guys and ray mears are great, but each to there own i guess

[anglaismoyen]

@TheDumnAs Have you ever heard of Ray Mears, by the way? He was the original Bear Grylls, except gentler and did less piss-drinking.

[TheDumnAs]

this is like a new bear grylls lol

[pkbjorn35]

Pigeon is often considerd as flying city rats. Does theyr citylife affect any taste? Is it unhealthy to eat a city pigeon?

[flyfish31]

whst about the lab doe's it get a tast,

i ate a lot of pigon its good wits spruce . or pine neddles

sprinkeld on it 1/2 way through the cookin.

capt canada the burma rd

[pookermit]

Couldn't you just just sticks and skewer the meat over the flame?

[rob8490]

Good vid, what was the fuel used in the fire tin?

[rockib911]

'pidgeon'



[Richayh]

so kinda like the question above i live in Arizona can i hunt the pigeon's here cause im in the desert i don't know if i can eat it

[gawletap]

Any wild pigeon who has lived a healthy life would be fine to eat, ie wood pigeon has not sat half its life sucking car fumes etc down it. Try it if you die let me know.

[IceTeaEdwin]

Pigeon boobs

[hadd13]

what a great dog Is he a English Lab?

[Rhinoch8]

What do you think about hunting city pigeon or lake ducks?

[gawletap]

City pigeons like city people have far higher levels of lead in their blood, I would advise against it unless you have no alternative, Ducks on lakes should be fine.

[Rhinoch8]

@gawletap Okay thanks. There are plenty of ducks on the so called "Geneva" lake (wich is Leman Lake, by the way)!!!

[JuniorPathfinder3]

@gawletap what kind of knife is that? it looked really sharp! did u sharpen it or did it come that way

[T4EVER1000]

you can make mini pancakes on the bottom of the billy can

[redline1953]

Any more recipes (cook times needed as well)? How much fuel did you use?

[redline1953]

Any more recipes (cook times needed as well).

[Canihavecookies]

Great video!

[jrg8008]

Give somoe to the dog!

[dinnerandashow]

Inside of cans are coated with a layer of plastic.

[flamefinger1989]

@Danielmorgan1976 danny what i think happend is the ball hit a branch on the way up then hit the bird. You can see the bird fall just before the fist clip stopped. Have a look mate all the best.

[djrider33]

I have a sudden craving for pigeon :P

[armyterminator123]

my dog would have eaten that be fore i got a bite

[pike12345selmo]

dude you could of just pulled the feathers off gutted it and koocked it !!!! over a fire! you would of gotten mor meat

[sharonvinco]

What did you kill it with

[mooglegaara]

I feel sorry for the dog you can see it drool

[humplejoe]

i enjoyed it , nice . tell us more about the catapult , bands , ammo and such .

[bruceleenzl]

...who doesn't mind a bit of pink!! :)

[molinobeer]

Beautiful dog, love the expression of him knowing that the meal is good ahah 6:05

[elhnad]

why wouldn't you goil the whole animal to get some broth. aren't you wasting most of it by eating tiny meat portion?

[divinefart]

Nice pooch..... Awesome skills

[stanzibritovsky]

now thats some gangsta shit right there

[FlyinHawaiins04]

what part do you eat, the skin?

[buttlord123]

@FlyinHawaiins04 huh?...Hes eating the breast meat.

[diya81]

@buttlord123 he's wasting the rest of the bird...

[buttlord123]

@diya81 I guess he did not feel like eating it?

[FlyinHawaiins04]

whet part do you eat, the skin?

[VaultTec30000]

The guy is like the guy in LOST john lock...

[Eso1]

You are full of knowledge! i am going to be ordering dvds

quick question, what knife are you using?

[EddieCubillo]

@Eso1 Looks like a Mora to me.

[efaman]

Nice to see such a well trained dog! Sitting right next to a delicious meal, and not even moving a muscle!

Really nice video(s)!

[zqdz123]

doesnt pigeon live in the city ?

[ydnarnosfatsug]

Will Rubbing alcohol work as fuel for the losenger tin? Whats the best / easiest to find denatured alcohol?. Im not even really sure what that is. Haha all the alcohol in my house is "natured" and about 80proof which goes well with ice n cola. I enjoy the vids thanks for posting. Very cool.

[1960markN]

@ydnarnosfatsug Rubbing alcohol may work but it is usually 10--30% water.  go to the hardware store paint department and get pure denatured alcohol.

[CoolKillerClan]

Tast like chiken

[scvs2]

To be honest I never seen a pigeon in the country sides only in the city.

[DamnYou22Times]

I found your video to be interesting, but when you use the sticks to pick it up, I was like damnnnnnn! How dumb am I , I would have never thought about doing that! Thanks yo! I sub to you also, never know when I may be stranded!

[TEWrestling]

i like the part where he said breast

[itosu1]

a comment you may or may not find useful...

In hunting grouse I have in the past peeled back the feathers on the breast.. Then grabbed the base of the breast with my thumb and lifted toward the birds head.

It will snap the breast away from the bird.

No need to gut it and you have all the meat.

I can see you had a limited cooking area so it was necessary to cut it but if you didnt the whole breast would have been a clean and easy choice. Give it a try sometime.

[goodnight4u]

I thought he was going to die. I thought all nettles were poisonous but i guess i was wrong.

[Rumph531]

@goodnight4u

They are actually, then cooked, both very tasty and very healthy to. You can make nettle tea very easy!

[ChemicalMikeUK]

i like the idea of having the fire in that tin underneath the can.

[Jthetinman]

Why are we feeding the homeless in San Francisco?!!! Shit! There is a smorgy out there for them people!

[threepercenter03]

What's the hygeine concerns with urban birds? Aren't they supposed to be "rats with wings"? eat vs. being sick is always a concern...birds are a hazy topic.

[Bushcraftpeople]

@threepercenter03 even rats that you find in the woods are perfect eating ;)

In India they sell urban rats on the streets like they do hoddogs in the western wolrd.

So immagine how good a forest rat will taste :)

[Sk8RJOSH94]

@threepercenter03 squirrels would do just fine, their natures ninjas

[GooberShot]

never thought id see a pigeon look so good. looks like a gormet meal. nice vid

[irishcowgirl77]

Is it dangerous to have the altoids can right on the ground, or does the fire pretty much stay in the can? Incredible video by the way :) I don't think I'd have the guts to cut a little bird open... unless it was a survival situation... but then, I am pretty much just a wanna be survivor. Thanks for posting this!

[Aaotrom]

what were you using for fuel in what to me looked like an altoid tin? And I kinda feel bad for the dog he started wagging his tail at the end like Oh boy am I getting some bites too? Very interesting though. I liked this video a lot

[hughes7520]

@MrEddrox As an ex soldier you use the tommy cooker/ hexy burner upside down on grass and mud as the prong prevent it slipping arounf when you put you pot on top.

[EntertainmentTrends]

That looks actually looks delicious.

[maladettagirl]

does insulation burn indefinately? Any reason that shouldn't be used? Just curious

[morron6666]

@maladettagirl For gods sake man, if its fiberglass dont burn it! The fumes are really nasty. From wikipedia ' Fibreglass resin fumes are an irritant to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Inhalation of vapors and/or absorption through the skin may cause liver and kidney damage and could possibly lead to cancer'

[shtfprepared]

@morron6666 Exactly what I was thinking, the toxic lining inside the can will give you cancer real fast! Besides that great video.

[maladettagirl]

@morron6666 That right there would be a GREAT reason! I had a feeling! Thanks for the input

[d0ck47]

In soviet Russia, Pigeon eat you!

[slayer1015]

You had a perfectly good dog right next to you why didnt you eat that? hahahahah

[Jungledon2]

A little harsh on MrEddrox, I think he was just saying... Loved the video, very interesting, I look forward to watching more. I wish I had your skills...

[loneshark123]

what kind of knife is that?

[SweStuff94]

@loneshark123 it lookt like a Mora cliper

[johndunne777]

nicely done

[QofLife69]

fantastic

[XIXownageXIX]

cool im just gonna go outside shoot down a pigeon and eat it wtf?

[Grimium]

@XIXownageXIX when the Zombie Apocalypse happens pigeons are gonna be the new steak

[scott777survivalist]

did he hit that or was his m8 chucking deads ones out the tree lol good vid aold bakki tin would be good for this ?

[drinkmoresoda]

that little stove is pretty sweet, i wish i could bring my dog out on the trail but its a crappy chihuahua : (

[kbollhunt2010]

@drinkmoresoda HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well u could shoot HIM at the bird! lol!!

[666eistee]

If you would be cool, you would eat the meat right after you butchered the pigeon.

[62rome]

is this bear grylls older brother making his own show?..

[grumpowski]

yep 666BLKdmn is an Idiot

[XxDevinDangerxX]

666blkmn is a fucking idiot!

[666BLKdmn]

@XxDevinDangerxX go stalk ur mom

[scott777survivalist]

@666BLKdmn your a prick fella

[LeonRFpoa]

I like that mini cooker, I saw it in the last video, you must be partial to it. Seems lightweight enough, mine requires fire-starting and some setup. how long will that burn for? It use methanol?

[rvlqcitizen]

I'll tell ya'll another fuel source for a sterno stove. Peanut butter and hand sanatizer. More easily obtained in a pinch.

[jjpjful]

yay thumbs up if u think he is awsome for killing an annoying pigeon!

[carlos45703030]

very interesting, thanks for posting, how safe would it be to prepare a city pigeon in a similar way?

[enriquecarloslopezsi]

@carlos45703030 dude its the same thing but pigens eat scraps or or shitty food so i just wouldnt grub on a city pigeon to be honest !!!

[darian2777]

@carlos45703030 capture alive feed bird food or other scraps for two weeks then kill cook and eat properly

[nelson0black]

Nice video

U help Me alot =)

[Hexxedchild]

Not fancy giving your dog any of that food mate?

[sim0b]

@Hexxedchild HAHAHA lovely dog eh.

[1960markN]

@Hexxedchild I bet he got the leftover pigeon

[sevinger]

gawletap, I love you. will you be my dad?

[uncoolkid2]

Can u eat almost any birds breast if u killed one

[chrixthegreat]

@uncoolkid2 Yes but I wouldn't.Though they are all edible, most of the birds we see, especially in cities, have being exposed to, and concentrate, pollutants that cooking does not remove.I would also worry about parasites that all these animals have.  With good cooking practices, it is rarely an issue, however, the man in this video cross-contaminated his knife on many occasions, making a significant risk of parasite infection. Great care has to be taken with wild meat, especially that of birds

[stopglobalswarming]

What do you think about these new cans that have plastic liners? I have heard that when this stuff is heated it turns into Estrogen hormonal drugs and leaches into the food or water heated in it.

[davidkenedy]

Good idea, i'll have to dust of my old black widow gat and get hunting , how long would I have to cook the nettles for so I don' t end up with a big fat tongue, also what are you using for fuel on the hexi stove?

[PUMACABRA]

@davidkenedy :The enzymes in your saliva kill the sting of Nettles.

[brycerocks100]

cooking for hobos

[moqutpar]

Man I'd have to take out atleast two pigeons to be satisfied...lol

[yosoyeltupapi]

oh man this looks good this really helps when me and my friends go camping, we rely on what we eat on what we catch like we caught three fish and a rabbit but this would be awesome advice because theirs thousands of birds out where we go in Beaumont Texas

[mowat440]

that looks real good 

[GuruzGT]

where can i find a pigeon on a tin can?

[dgl1962]

@GuruzGT Like everything else,at WalMart.

[KieranFF]

fuck an 8oz steak, next time im ordering pigeon!

[outdoorguy90]

I liked your series. please make arrangements to come to Canada. You could teach my Scouts about wilderness survival. Videoo tape it for your series if you wish.

[runescaper21watch]

and you could have gave some to the poor dog :o

[runescaper21watch]

i like ur dog its my type :D

[Griffith181]

Whats the dog going to eat :(?

[joeftw18]

The pigeon Carcass...

[guitargodattheheart]

nice shot im worried though as my nick name's pigeon......

[Zeamus634]

How the hell did you hit that???

[NocheeseSherlock]

What a waste of pigeon. In real survivor you should eat them to the bone. That will give you some calcium too :)

[keesurt]

Son: daddy are we eating pigeon again?Daddy: yes son, we are.Son: But daddy, we eat pigeon every day... Daddy: Son we need to keep te youtubers entertained

[snooch1975]

this is awsome never thought to eat pigeon how does this taste?

[Crackerskill]

Damn Youtube get rid of this blasted bar at the bottom!!

[XINXAN7515]

@Crackerskill you can take it off in your options

[XdigimonX]

Lmao his dog looked so bored. He was like: "wth r u doing?" XD

[rvlqcitizen]

@XdigimonX The dog wasn't interested in the greens, but he sure got close to that bird cookin.:)

[lukkbox]

the only nutrition he can gain from this meal comes from the nettles, which are excellent food for humans

because humans, anatomically speaking, are 100% herbivore

meat gives you cancer lol

[k4hbloodshed]

@lukkbox Because there's no such thing humans need called protein.
