  • what kinds of tree bark can rabbits eat?

  • @dancingmule96 i use to have one they can eat dandelions sorry cant spell good. do not no about tree bark

  • REAL MEN survive, improvise, adapt and overcome in the wild. One month in the wild and this guy is looking like a pipe cleaner with eyes! THIN. Bear Grylls would chew that tree up and shit particle board for dinner, put that on the fire and stay warm the rest of the evening.

    "Can you say, DELIVERANCE????" SQUEAL LIKE A PIG BOY!!!!! HE'S SURE GOT A PRETTY MOUTH PAW!!!!! LMAO...........

    OMG....he comes the waterworks again.......

  • he's teaching survival strategies and that thin part of the tree is edible. And just because its bitter doesn't mean it isn't edible.

  • Wow... eating a tree... He can't even find some bugs? I'm surprise he is not dead by day 3.

  • i think he pick the wrong tree!! most trees are bitter!!

  • Being proud of having a short attention span is not funny or cool, it means you're very likely stupid and probably 12 years old, which automatically means you're stupid, but it doesn't mean you have to remain stupid. If you can't pay attention to something for more than 3 minutes that doesn't include several explosions maybe you should go watch M.Bay crap 24 hours a day.

  • wow, ur gagging over barks, find some other career comparing to bear lmao

    BEAR GRYLLS = LEGEND

  • @godserens bear grylls eats bear feces, bear grylls knows nothing, he is a stuntman; not a survival instructor.

  • give it to me im a mexican/indian ill eat that whole tree

  • sWALLOW IT

  • He must be related to that McCandless guy. That tree he's eating probly aint gonna digest too well.

  • Doesn't look very appetizing.

  • Of course it's CHEWY, your eating a freaking tree!

  • " I mean its really chewy" LOL holy shit thats funny stuff.

  • does he realize he's got this hitler mustache thing going? looks like a little soot

  • cause u know how that matters so much when you're all alone in the wilderness trying to survive

  • boring, I zoned out in 15 seconds.

  • Ok? why r u posting that on here? and further more why did you fucking click on the video?

  • @geolyfe

    Because you have the attention span of a mentally challenged chimp, yes be proud of your disability!!

  • lmao , is this guy for real? Thats the craziest think ive heard of. He should have watched an episode of Man vs Wild

  • thats terrible!

  • LMAO just watching him try and take a bite of the bark haha

  • that and sap is nasty

  • eh ive tried the bark its damn hard to chew up

  • You know he got his fiber for the day.

  • Hahahah this shit is awesome

  • oh and surprisingly wet? lmao im 17 and im smart enough to know trees are wet on the inside -.- that dumb fuck doesn't know a damn thing about surviving =\

  • bark isnt wet, and he's talking about the inside layer of the bark

  • The inside layer of the bark (live outer edge of the tree) is wet.

  • ummm.... right.... thats what i said =\

  • If he says the word chewy one more fucking time I'm going to shove that tree bark up his ass.

  • As we know, the media including these programs are all controlled. Ed makes eating the tree bark look so horrible. However, people survived off of tree bark in the bad winters including native indians. the boiling of it is not recommended but of course that's the bs they feed you (so to speak). It's best to dip in olive oil and heat over a fire to make it's texture like potato chips. Of course, they give you that ridiculous crap as your survival lesson. BTW, it's awesome for you.Ed did his job

  • Yup.... Cuz he can just go make olive oil right?? haha you people are ridiculous. You go do it if you think hes doing it wrong. Seriously, Go call NatGeo and say that YOU want to do the show instead of him.

  • Didn't realize you were a foolish little girl when I responded. I've done a lot of work in the woods and can survive out there. He can roast that wood over fire without oil for a crispy texture. The oil was referring to people in homes, should we enter into a food shortage condition or economic crisis. That would be a much more prevalent use of surviving to eat tree bark than being lost in the forest little darling. "You people" (foolish kids) need to realize you're being brainwashed.

  • Nice one. Calling me a girl...when I'm a 20 year old man. Ouch....

    Good for you eating tree bark. Good Job.

    And just because you messure turtles and take pics of trees in you back yard doesnt make you shit. So stop acting like a cocky as 40 year old burnout.

  • I mixed you up with another person. My bad. BTW, not a burnout, very successful actually. My advice, listen and learn but make sure it's the correct source of info.

  • since your a guy change your screen name to "jinglemyballs262.

  • It wont let me change it to anything... I already tried cuz i got bored with this one.

  • thats your boyfriend eating that bark

  • I love you so much Ed you inspire me

  • every tree has cambium!

  • 3:17 ''its like eatting wood'' no shit....

  • hey we cant make fun of him to much he is getting paid to do this shit!?

  • he shouldnt lol. survivor man was the shit or man vs wild hahaha

  • yea they both are awesome, even if bear stays in a hotel when there done, he is a beast!!!

  • roflmao they dont have any risk on shows like this, not survivorman or bear.... they are all just fucking actors, you can see how stupid he is because he is an actor, you never face a knife towards you to cut... any real survivalist would know that... and lastly... all he had on his so called "trek" which was most likely a helecopter ride.... was his backpack.. he didn't have all those cameras or camera boxes... shows you how fake this shit really is =\

  • virgin never ate nothing wet

  • hahahah

  • true dat

  • it might be edible lol

  • "It was wet, which reminded me that it might be edible". Sexual innuendo? :p

  • LOL hahahahahahahahahhaha

  • man vs wild owns u much

  • survivorman is better

  • WTF!!! What a shit-head

  • chewy bitter bark? good thing to know!

  • To be severely apt, I must say, lawl

  • haha

    its like eating paper

  • Does this guy even know what he's doing? From the looks of it he has very little experience.

  • Hes a real survalist.

  • Are you serious? Did YOU know that you can eat bark if you're stuck in the wild? And did YOU know it was called Cambium? I think not

  • Reminds me of eating San Pedro cacti, absolutely disgusting.

  • the face he made was priceless

  • Come over to my house, you hottie!!...I give you some of my home cookin`!!!

  • Golly gee, Beave!

  • Got Wood?

  • aha, poor guy.

  • You vagrant. Get a job. LOL

  • Why don't you cut a twig, and make fishing pole. Plan ahead next time and bring some fishing line. The joke is probably on us. He is probably in some city park, across the street from a half dozen restaurants, and a grocery store. Bloody vegetarians..

  • All them critters running around, and hes eating tree bark.

  • Excuse me, its called the "Groom of the stool". This guy was the ass wiper for the queen lol. He has all the need esential tools, but I bet he has some TP too LOL. Google Groom of the stool.

  • Hes right off of a lake too, where he can set up traps. When he first landed he found a game trail right off the shore. He must not know to much about outdoor living. Hes in the most abundant natural resource part of America, and hes eating bark WTF. This guy must have been the stool servant for the Queen of retards. Yall know what the stool servant is don't you? The one that waits for the queen to take a dump, and then after shes finished, wipes her ass LOL. No joke...youtube it.

  • This guy is not to bright. You can tell he grew up in a big city. He has a hatchet, knife, and some firearms, and he's eating bark lol. I guess he probably has a fishing pole too LOL.

  • *too*

  • i bet hes thinkin "it taste like shit"

  • i wonder if he reads these lame ass comments. stupid video. lol

  • LOL that was funny...just when you thought you've found something to eat...i guess not...but it sure is cheeewy :)

  • this guy is carrying about a million accessories and tools and he is still complaining. what kind of survivor show is this? change the title to 'wimp in the wild,' or 'metrosexual in the wild.' thank you.

  • very chewy.. NOT TOO BAD!!

  • lmfao he looks funny

  • Bear Gryills wanna be.

    This is one dumbass.

    nigga please

  • HE MAD AS HELL AT HIS LIFESTYLE

  • el oh el phahahahaha

  • he looks and sounds like a caveman.

    p.s. it be funny if your not sapposed to eat bark because it poisenous and if he shoked and died because of eating tree bark.

  • i think you're supposed to cook it first.

  • @barkpeeler2000 yes! supposed to fry it like bacon

  • Have you even watched this show?

  • he just found out off the internet about it..and now he's trying..c;mon he has no idea what he is doing...i feel the one that really knows..is Wild vs. Man..dude!! Ed here..really sucks!! he seems so unknowledgable...really looks like he has no idea what he is doing at least in the wild...

  • "It's a bit like eating wood"

    ...

    That's because that's exactly what you're doing!!

  • I thought he said you're suppose to boil it??? might be easier to eat that way but whateva...

  • and it just gets worse and worse XD epic

  • ahhhhhaa

  • What a pussy!!!...I've eaten a shit load of the outer bark of a tree before, and it tasted fine to me...of course i was wasted, but it tasted good then :)

  • LOL. What a dipshit. There must be a hundered different things to eat within a 500 foot diameter. Eat the bark. ROFL. Make noodles. AHHHHHHHHHHAAAA

  • Alright Mr. Tinkle, enlighten us on what these hundreds of things are, assuming you can't find wild life, which I'd imagine he can't.

  • He was in one of the most lush environments emaginable for survival. Come to my survival camp and I will show you. Search

  • Why go to your camp when I'm obviously speaking to an expert?

    I said name a few of these hundreds of available foods, enlighten me please.

  • dont go to his survival camp anyone its a trap

  • I thought trouble was afoot when I was told to bring Vaseline and a MagLite...

  • Two very good items to bring along in a survival situation

  • Indeed.

    You've yet to tell me a single alternative food source for this man.

  • Tell me your not the dipshit that was eating the bark. AHHHHHHAHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA. You are huh. I knew it.

  • 230 MPG, huh Volt?

  • I would eat the root of the tree. That would be the softest.Oh and FYI, Eating wood will mess your teeth up BAD!

  • He's british he already has bad teeth.

  • LOL, try shroomies next time and POST THE VIDEO.

  • splinters anybody?

  • like jeky

  • Old saying - don't bite off more than you can chew.  Cambium on beech trees is actually good - ate it as a kid - tasted like gum. Humble guy - trial and error on film.

  • look yummy

  • mmmm tree bark yummy

  • "I have never fancied it?" Really... a bit sheltered all your life?

    "It's really chewy." Well your problem is is that your not a Beaver. It helps to be one when eaten trees. :Oo

    Just think... tomorrow you will have particle board to build your hut with... huh? Don't leave that out. :O)

  • Bear Grylls is either gonna jump down from a helicopter and eat this guy, or drink the water out of his shit for a week.

    Either situation could be entertaining.

  • and then survivorman will jump off mt. everest and swoop down on bear. its a part of nature.

    (lmao im actually a huge fan of bear but i find survivorman in a more dangerous situation)

  • True, true.

    I think Bear's stuff is a bit more choreographed, but it's still pretty entertaining. I like survivorman the best. There should definitely be some sort of showdown between these guys.

  • indeed they should

  • It wouldn't be much of a showdown.

    Les would murder Bear, his camera crew, his safety crew, and his family.

  • somone please plug somthing into that socket -.-

    thats what she blah blah blah

    there i beat yall to it :p

  • Didn't he say you were supposta boil the bark before eating it? I would think it would taste quite a bit better after that.

  • Survivorman, Man vs Wild, Alone in the Wild.....damn. I like the other 2 but how is this different?

  • the other guys try to get out of the wild, this dude is just hangin out in the same spot surviving

  • Comment removed

  • In Survivorman he doesn't try to get out, he tries to survive for 7 days.

    To whoever gave me that thumbs down - wtf,? did I get it because I said there are a lot of survival shows? Oh, and I said, "damn" I'm sorry, did that offend you? Well, suck my dick.
