[TheBassgorilla]

SASQUATCH!!!!!!

[krazzykid97]

where in wales do u live?

[ramp2tramp]

why give a shit how deep into the forest it is? it's a demonstration of how to light a fire.

[100trueneutral]

Good informative video there Andrew! Good work mate. Where abouts in Wales are you from? I'm a Brit myself now living in Alaska. Trying to improve my bushcraft skills as much as possible, so channels like these are a big help.

[cr0cket01]

is birch and where he say he deep in forest.

[gralo5]

thats not silverbirch

[sutrar]

I see nothing wrong with the pedestrian - the forest simply contains lots of wildlife lol

[Thunor232]

Thank you for this video. I enjoy the different mentality that you bring to fire lighting. "Building". Something to think about.

[gulfland]

Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The fire of the children of Adam which they kindle is a seventieth part of the fire of Jahannam." They said, "Messenger of Allah, this fire is certainly enough." he said, "That fire is sixty-nine times greater."

[NuclearActiveGuy]

nevermind, im a idiot, should have watched it all before commenting

[NuclearActiveGuy]

lighter stones are better.

waterproof and takes years to run out

[PyroPortrayal]

Or you could ask Prometheus for some help :)

[PopolVuh3]

Not a very hostile environment though is it? 

[TheOldHacker]

I like to carry a can of petrol with me, especially in such extreme conditions as a "light dusting of snow" in Roath Park.

[mrttou]

What do you mean "Soak" in vasaline? I've never seen it as a liquid. Interesting tips. Thanks

[Vyppaaa11]

Cotton or wool? They are very different things (ones a plant and ones an animals fur), I should know, I'm alergic to wool but not cotton.

[gaarathesandslayer]

@Vyppaaa11 i dont think he was saying that they were different, just that either one would be a good tool in laying the foundation of the fire.

[Vyppaaa11]

@gaarathesandslayer Actually wool does'nt burn, it smolders if you are lucky. I was just highlighting that they are very different because I'm alergic (not deathly but it is really anoying) to wool but not cotton.

[gaarathesandslayer]

@Vyppaaa11 oh. lol. ok then :3

[bushcraftourway]

@Vyppaaa11 we call it cotton woll in the uk

[Vyppaaa11]

@bushcraftourway WHY!? Cotton is an excellent fire starter where as wool is the worlds only naturally flame retardant material.

[bushcraftourway]

@Vyppaaa11 then why do you call augbergene an eggplant?? it looks NOTHING like an egg?

[Vyppaaa11]

@bushcraftourway I had no idea that you called eggplant somthng else. But why do you call Z zed?  Every other english speaking country calls it zee just like the USA.

[bushcraftourway]

@Vyppaaa11 you just contradcited yoruself, its our language, therefore, the way we speak it is correct

america is a country made up of nearlly every nation from the world and yet alot of americans HATE the rest of the world

[Vyppaaa11]

@bushcraftourway Sayi ng that is like saying "america invented flight so every other country that does it differentky is wrong" BTW nce job completly avoiding the question

[bushcraftourway]

@Vyppaaa11 i didnt acctually, i gave you the answer, its OUR language, and inventing something ans something existing is totally different, language evolves over millions of years, not a few years like inventing something

[Vyppaaa11]

@bushcraftourway Well if you knew your languistic history of the english you would know that befor the 1800s england also pronounced Z as zee. So it was a fairly recent adaptation. So where did you get your millions of years theory?

[KALfilms]

What if it's rained and snowed and so the bark is wet? And you don't have anything else that is easily burned?

[Frankyboy1177]

@KALfilms you're in trouble lol

[KALfilms]

@Frankyboy1177 :D

[audiobooklet]

extreme conditions ... a bit cold and a bic lighter

[arrowmonster]

lol this is as wack as yo accent. any fool can start a fire with all that shit. dont quit your day job hack

[bushcraftourway]

@arrowmonster shut up, andrew is an experrienced bushcrater whoes traveled allover the world and writes for a magazine....

[chris5646]

That songs uhhhhh pretty gay though

[chris5646]

I like fire :D

[MrDadadou]

extream condition ????!! XD

[thermaldog]

this guy dosent know what he's doing.

[00Avenger17]

I light petrol cans and throw them to light my fires.....very effective =3

[joeschmo10155]

@00Avenger17 hahahaha LMAO

[00Avenger17]

@joeschmo10155 hehe =P 

[hanghoodiescum]

it was a yetti i think

[satansmusic2009]

ok lets all talk about the guy walking in the back ground and forget the talking you can hear at 2:18 which is cleary being hear threw some sort of amplifier and the vehicle traffic you can hear through out the video

[FatzoMcUgly]

Bigfoot @ 00:31

[christopherremmel]

there's a guy walking in the background on the right side from 30-35 seconds...or was that bigfoot?

[gmanw3]

another great video.

[L2FlyMN]

Remember, a lighter may not work if it is really cold out! I found that out at -30 plus windchill & nearly parished because I depended on it as an inexperienced kid out X-country skiing.

[trollkors78]

It's not unnecessary to go deep into forests to show someone how to light fire in the wilderness. The technique is still the same. Many of us will train it before going to be lost in "wilderness"... It's better than trying to learn firelighting in crisis situation somewhere away from help...

[aguswidjaja]

Good video, well presented. Thank you.

[flintstone9812]

Good tip about the safety of where to build the fire.

I noticed an overabundance of vines on the trees. They suck the sap out of trees and kill them in short order. You would do the trees a favor if you cut those vines.

Good video, thanks...........

[KoN312]

i am not into hinking, but really interesting things u show here. Thx for sharing ur knowledge.

[cesp82]

WTF

[sirotti1981]

When it's wet, i start with two big logs on the ground, pore or less an hand apart. Then i build a "floor" of dry wood as you do and make my fire on top of the two logs.

When the fire is going, there is a constant flow of air from beneath that really helps.

[xyzjman1]

wow nice idea :D must try it

[recurveninja]

i have a friend in wales :D

[next2flexent]

thanks man, this may come in very handy one day ,you never know.

[sdbrunn]

I can light a fire simply by rubbing my thighs together....really fast....

[KonstantinKuehn]

well thats cool

[matprithellodave]

what i did is i found a blown over pine tree, and i snapped some of the wood that was in it's trunk, and split it, and it was covered in sticky sap, it was awesome, went ur straight away, and then u put very bug sticks on top which lasted for like 2 hrs

[Bloodynavallint]

in the beginning you can see a guy in the background lol

[chrisjensen123]

do you think that that guy was making it harder or easier to light a fire in snow...

[jr2150]

yea....hes not in the wilderness, unless thats a yeti!!!!!! omfg

[jackssheduk]

@Bloodynavallint

and this negates the information how?

[parteeeeeyy]

nice red flame is good

[chrissept21]

this fella watches ray mears i bet

i like both of em very good info

[jdbeaver91]

in reality the best fire style is an apache indian style dig a pit bout a foot down eight to ten inches wide the dig a deeper pit about 6-8 inches away dig a tunnel connecting the two at the bottom of the first hole this allows maximum air to be drawn to the fire by its own power of oxygen usage this also allows the fire to burn alot hotter alot brighter and alot longer plus the coals will be bunched together to help rekindle it after banking the fire

[hersheybar11]

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!

[RodCornholio]

Outstanding video. I always imagine that the fuel (i.e. wood, kindling, tinder) needs as much "breathing room" as possible, hence, allowing air gaps by criss-crossing the material.

Once enough heat is built up, larger pieces can be put on.

Having air space underneath is key whenever possible.

I've also noticed an additive effect, where, for example, the fire has died, you can push coals together to create more heat than if separate and restart the fire.

[chrissept21]

i did this

i was praticeing with my char cloth

and my fire went out and i pusd the ashy coals togething and it bust in to flame i did even no it would

it was very intersting

[RodCornholio]

Yes, what you did is a perfect example of the effect I wrote about.

Many times, I have pushed the coals together to ignite a twig or tinder that could NOT have been lit if the coals were separate.

This property, that heat can be added almost like numbers, works on bigger pieces of wood too.

[chrissept21]

things that cumbust

they have a flash piont the point at witch its so hot that it just burst in to flame

its really quite cool to watch

put a stick on some coals and dont blow on it just watch and it will burst into flame

[moneymaster123963]

hey thanks for teaching me how to light a fire. by the way do u think we can light a fire with a spark and a fart? lol

[Khamomil]

What was this small black thing he said stinks a lot but is good to start a fire?

[PremiumPastaSauce]

Cycle inner tube.

[DJWLD]

Very educative, thx man.Can you show us how to light fire without any home's materials? thx

[Taino187]

Heh... at 0:30 a Sasquatch or BigFoot walks by on the right side of the screen. :)

[corpsemunger]

hey Andrew, i was just wondering, reading about your figure 4 deadfall last January inspired me to start trapping.

i have been making some snares but im a little scared about if say i catch a rabbit how to kill it humainly. i have seen people breaking the necks but as imm 14 and not really very strong i might just injure it and it will be really horriable for the rabbit.

might you show me away to kill the rabbit humainly without breaking there necks in that way. thanks!

[EnergyDog23]

They are not so deep in the forest, you can see pedrestian in 0:32 :P

[undercurrentspaulo]

Perhaps the pedestrian was deep down too?

[EnergyDog23]

I don't think so :D

[BradinOkinawa]

@undercurrentspaulo it was a Sasquatch.

[Verradonairun]

@undercurrentspaulo it does look like the pedestrian was walking on a road. :)

[bushcraftourway]

@EnergyDog23 when did it say 'where far in the forrest?'

[kamden1980]

@EnergyDog23

He doesn't need to be in the furthest reaches of the most remote wilderness to teach a valuable lesson.

[krazzykid97]

@kamden1980 Dose not matter if he was in his backgarden we still learn bushcraft

[justyoustupid]

@EnergyDog23 i was just about to post that :)

[herpingwithmarc]

@EnergyDog23 they're still in the woods

[misternylon]

@EnergyDog23 yeah there's no way he should be making these videos unless dropped into the Amazon rainforest or British Columbia!!

What an arsehole, how dare he make this video, there's a person in the background!!

:P

[Serenity3]

LOVE THIS SERIES. it's the best on the web.

[prolax1080]

loving the videos. please will you do more on how to make fire in different methods.

thanks

[wiskawind]

Great video! (smile)

[bushmag]

Nice video Andrew! A good thing to mention is if you do like you did by building a platform is that air can get to the fire from underneath and therefore help the fire build up=)
