Survival Shelter - Debris Hut Part One

[howtoplanaparty]

I appreciate the fantastic lore, but I want to comment about speech "lie down". Intransitive. "Lay" is what you do to somethin, such as "lay myself down" or "lay my book down".

I don't need one of these. My house is a debris hut.

Hey Mike, did you write a script for this? If so could you send it to me via message or i can give you an Email address, I'm doing a project on debris huts and this would be super helpful!

Thank you!

[primitiveskills]

@zerg57 There wasn't a script, we just go out and run with it. You can ask questions at mpss@gwi.net and we can answer them if you'd like.

Good video...... checkout my survival shelter video

[mandgsurvival]

Great video! I realy like your video's!!!

[appletatorz]

you don't look like you really wanted to do this video, but it's great

[primitiveskills]

Two separate debris huts are needed based on precise measurements & thermal properties of the shelter. Also, picture the person you are closest to & yourself trying to spend a night together in a mummy sleeping bag built for an extra large person. By morning one of you will be outside the bag, the other in, & both cold and angry at the other. We've seen it played out more than a few times @ the school. There are configurations that make multiple debris hut arrangements more efficient.

[DustyFlapjack]

If you had two people would it be better to make two individual debris huts or a two-person debris hut?

[kingcollie]

thank you so much for this video! this is awesome info and you definitely know your stuff bud,i don't mean to sound offensive but youve got a sort of natural comedic awkwardness that adds just that much more to the video for me, thanks again

[practicalsurvivor]

This video is great. Very solid. Thanks for sharing.

[jpomatto13]

Well done! 5/5

[lowcard1]

I have learned alot from this vid now when I watch other vids on debris huts I think they should watch yours and learn something too.How ever living in Florida I think I could get away with just making it water proof and laying down a good bed.Thanks for the vids.

[varmintstalkers]

It definately looks like this guy truly believes that every calorie is precious.

[mikefuzzbino]

i really wanna try this....what about bugs...snakes ??..what are the chances of them entering in

[menter555]

Its better than freezeing

[mikefuzzbino]

true...just curious...but i really like this vid.

[varmintstalkers]

There's always a chance for that. I haven't had that problem though.

[primitiveskills]

Insects and spiders are driven out by "smudging" VERY carefully so as not to burn down your shelter with you in it. Maine has no venomous snakes and a few spiders that cause localized necrosis. Even so, follow normal snake protocols as if using a modern sleeing bag in the dessert south west in snake country. The walls, while strong enough to climb on after settling, are easily pushed out for a ginger or explosive escape.

[Doggorunning]

The shelter is designed to keep you warm and dry. Bugs, snakes and critters thats called camping.

[primitiveskills]

Well said.  The price of admission, and well worth it!

[swordsman181]

@mikefuzzbino light a stick on fire and carefully let smoke into the shelter.

[FrankieWoodside]

Great video. Love the in-depth, straight forward approach.

[hobbexp]

this is good stuff

[DiabetesGirl3145]

Why is it called "primitive" skills?

[OpeningYourEyes]

Probably because it would be how primitive man would have made do with whats around him on the land ... :)

[TheThissucks123]

are you being sarcastic?

[DiabetesGirl3145]

No, actually, building a debris hut is a quite useful skill.

[TheThissucks123]

No I just couldn't believe you would actually ask why it's called "primitive" skills lol.

[5555davd5555]

[killerc0p]

There is in fact a good reason why he is a little fat. The more body fat you have, the more days you can go without food.

So before times become really rough, eat yourself a little fat.

[KidSnipe]

^^^

typical fatty

[nokinja]

Great video, it's very informative.

[shawnio]

[rabidmonkeygirl]

Wow, he may be a fat guy, but the amount of information was intense enough to view it twice! Great job!
