My Demonstration Of Using My Fire Steel

[gksea]

Thank you for teaching me that a fire is easly set with jute and a fire steel.

[k81law]

And remember, only YOU can prevent forest fires.

[ANDYKilla1]

SHIT CAMERA but good vid



[TIKIMAN198]

I have to take a shit

[earias777]

pull the key back to spark dont flick the piece of steel

[TheNumber1draftpick]

pull away from you the way your showing might noke your tender away

[yobuttin]

bear grylls is gay.  les stroud would destroy him in a real survival situation.

[00Avenger17]

dude how was that a good demonstration? i mean yes u lit the fire but bad technique when lighting.....that way u would have your tinder everywhere all over the floor if it was anything else except from twine you had....

[suckmybacktrick]

@00Avenger17 its an awesome demo of a kid doing so. he'll learn as he grows :) nice job dude

[00Avenger17]

@suckmybacktrick true dat =P nice vid ;P

[123bigfredo]

how old do u have to be to buy that in australia and were abouts in australia can u buy ite fire steel

the light my fir

[bulby00]

nive vid i orderd a light my fire 4 days ago i have alot of tinder in my yard so im coverd try usein cotton balls satarated in vasilne it'll light for about 2 mins

[DreBombs]

Although you got it to lite, you were doing it wrong. you're supposed to pull the flint back and hole the steel in place

[KonstantinKuehn]

NOOOO DONT WATCH MAN VS. WILD! DONT EVER JUMP OFF A CLIFF IN A SURVIVAL SITUATION!!!! so not the right person to take advice from! ray mears or les stroud would be better

[mediaguitarist]

I have to both concur and disagree. My advice to anyone watching Man vs. Wild is to utilize common sense. Survivorman is much much better but it doesn't mean you can't learn something useful from Bear. The man does know his stuff, Discovery probably just wanted him to film a more entertainment based show since they already had Survivorman showing the harsh realities of the extreme environments. Personally I would love to see Bear appear on Special Ops Mission, that would be amazing.

[beargryylsfan12]

shut up bear is awesom beter than you

[sandersquick]

I wondered how those things worked, thanks for posting that.

[bladeking2013]

cool vid

[pelletkiller21]

the fire steel sucks, so why don't you get a blastmatch

[Airsoft9eleven]

blast match is expensive

in japan its crazy expensive i can get the fire steel for $15 only but the blast match is $45 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KonstantinKuehn]

the blastmatch sucks! its way to bulky and u end up pushing all ur tinder around with it. because its too bulky in the hand... the light my fire army firesteel is soo much better its cheaper and less bulky.

[redpillplease]

most excellent. be great to see a video where you're starting a fire in the rain and wind. i've seen several vids on fire starting using different methods but all under dry windless conditions. or what to do if you're stuck in the wilderness, pouring rain and no dry tinder. great vid, thanks

[MisterManify]

Try to pull the fire steel AWAY from the tinder bundle... That will reduce the odds of your tinder bundle getting all fucked up.

[ACDCfan555]

chap stick is also very effective on cotton balls or cloth.

[PANWO762]

tryout using cotton balls soaked in vasoline. they will burn for atleast 2:00 min .........very good

[Dwealdric]

Just a quick comment here. PANWO762 is absolutely correct.

[PANWO762]

Thank you, yeah since i learned that trick i taped two film canasters together filled the bottem one before i taped them, then filled the top. Works great and you always have one sealed up for "just incase" but yeah there a must in ur pack! Even start wet wood with um!

[vh2k]

@PANWO762 I carry about a dozen of those in my kit, they're fantastic, light with one strike of my fire steel

[NerdHunter87]

Try and pull the stick back PAST the steel.. that way you won't be smashing your tinder.

[4770589]

dont watch man vs. wiled just read a good survival book

[yujonez74]

survivorman is better because he stays at the places longer and makes little camps other than man vs wild just keeps moving

[THETOBYS]

not to mention les actually shows you what you can do in different situations and he films all of it by himself.

[speedy9738]

Well, if I'm stuck somewhere out there I actually don't want to stay there. I'll try to get the hell out of there.

[snakeii0]

Man vs Wild is just entertainment. If you follow some of Bear Grylls advice it'll get you killed, and chances are it'll be a slow death. Such as not being able to walk to safety after you climb up a slick wet waterfall and break your leg. Or bash your head open after jumping into a unknown depth of water. For real tips, watch Ray Mears, Ron Hood, Les Stroud, or other REAL survival EXPERTS.

[SkallagrimNilsson]

I couldn't agree more... that Bear Grylls guy is just not a source for reasonable survival skills. I guess he's some kind of hardcore risk junkie and I wouldn't be surprised if he managed to get himself killed or seriously injured sometime soon.

Ray Mears on the other hand seems actually concerned about safety and much more reasonable. He really has a huge amount of knowledge and if I could I would love to learn as much as possible directly from him in person. As you said, a real expert.

[thejaguar123]

yep dam true.

[brotherscro]

@snakeii0 not true so shut up i folowed almost every advice of him same ways and yet it got me of alot dangerous situations...

[len0808]

@snakeii0 you are wrong. everytime he climbs up or climb down anything steep, he tells you don't do it inless you are an EXPERT climber, like he is.

[smcorrea]

Nice =D

[Massiveadventures]

its hard to start fires without a wind block

[balaclavaman]

All this cloth lint,maya sticks,cotton balls,nitrogel... tinder whatever is good for the backyard and to show it to your friends.

But it´s better to know what tinder to use from nature if you are in a survival situation it can save your live ,if you don´t have cotton balls with vaseline or mayasticks with you.

[survivorman101010]

nice demonstration 5 out of 5

[paul9707]

i know the best possible tinder. i light it in one try with my fire steel. go to the clothes dryer in your house and take all the lint off the filter. works like a charm.

[engles08]

Very cool. I think I am going to get a fire steel the next time I place an order with County Comm.
