[TripInsure]

I've seen that done with boxes but not a heavy rock.

[JungleBorys]

i don't know what u can actually get from such a small and amateur trap, u didn't show anything about masking o smell which is basics to know when building anything in the forest, yo

[EpicBladeTime]

[Master8laster]

Thats how I caught my first girlfriend

[niueanlaho]

The only thing your gonna kill with that trap is a snail or a worm

[salguero18]

by the way you should put a sing on the trap "this is home for rats so please come in. otherwise they will not

[DJJimCowley]

brilliant!!! used the same concept for catching birds when i was younger, only i used a wash basin so not to kill them.

But the way things are these days.... i could use it again to save money on chicken.... like i mean 4 or 5 crows would have a nice bit of meat on them :)

Hi Paul,

My name is Monsan from Thailand. I really like being outdoor even though I have not got much chances. I like your survival techniques very much. They are very helpful.

And your video is also good in youtube because its sound so loud and clear (unlike ray mears and bear grylls) Really nice things you do here.

Keep it up.

Hi Paul.

That's a good trap to master.

Up here it could catch anything from Martins to Squirrels to mice.

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

LOL!

[MrHadage]

Hmm nice made, but i think the Stone is to light. Put another one onto it. Save the animal from any pain even if its a survival-situation ;)

Greetings from Germany :)

[Equip2Endure]

Great Video Paul!

[searytv]

aw man now i really want to try this in my back yards exept its snowing out and its hunting season

[jakeo96]

the figure four trap is very easy to set up compared to a deadfall trap, however it takes at least 10 times longer to make an effective one

[drmak3r]

maybe if we use a bigger rock we can catch a moose lol but seriously, great vid but this is the first one of yours that has bad sound quality,keep posting

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Yeah... this is actually the very first video I did so I wasn't set up with a decent camera yet.

[relicright]

use a rock fall trap for a moose , LOL

[hesmydog]

You need a close up of the sticks

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Check out the article on our website... it has some close up shots of this trap. Thanks!

[twofour88]

shut up you ungrateful, non-contributing fucktard. this guys videos rock and if you cant follow simple instruction i think you need some help!

[tardwhisperer]

@twofour88--- I swear. Every single time I start something, everybody else is doing it just a few months later. You people are so predictable.

[twofour88]

@tardwhisperer wtf are you talking about dude i posted on this video a year ago , troll elsewhere , u fuckin low-life

[johnjayrambo11111]

great video mate ,really good 5/5

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Hello and thanks for the comment,

Actually the intention of the trap is to collect food when you are not around so that you can focus on other priorities in survival...one would typically set 15-30 similar traps by traveling a route that takes you far away from your survival camp. You would walk this "trap line" once per day to collect any kills, reset traps, or relocate them if need be.

[flatheadpower2000]

Why don't you just shoot the animal? I mean you do have a gun right? Possess gun is survival rule #1. #2 is have plenty of ammo.

[clearelite]

Thanks for the video! and to anyone commenting that it may not be an effective way to trap a large animal, this is a demonstration! you can use bigger rocks if you have to :]

[ninelivecat]

Cool

[trappinboys]

sweet BAM on my playlists

[ant281207]

what animal are u trying to trap? spiders?

[djchakita]

i agree, you could not kill anything big enough to eat with such a small trap. maybe a gopher lol.

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Thanks for the comment... it is actually a pretty typical size trap for squirrel, rabbit, rats etc... They can be made much larger for but I have not yet experiemented with such a trap.

Kind regards,

Paul Scheiter

[djchakita]

I think it should be bigger to ensure a clean kill. With a rock that size you would only hold the animal in place while it slowly suffocates and possibly makes enough noise to attract predators to steal your kill.

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Yeah... that's a good point.... thanks!

[tmyaungtheinjy]

why those animals have to go into there?

[tmyaungtheinjy]

stupid rats indeed

[jsoblink182]

hey wheres the article at???
