Coyote Well Water Filter

[KiriouSs]

if you have no choice you dont have a choice....

[TruthBeTold2K]

LMAO! I remember when Cody got all butt hurt becasue Dave put his hand in the water. LOL That was classic.

[MrKtdyer]

is all the places/locations that you shoot at your property or state property?(jw)

[allout218]

great video,

anyone have ideas about making natural rain catchers?

[staringischaring]

Thanks Dave your my idol i wish my parents would let me go camping. Dave your the best. :) :) :)

[inbredagogo]

I wonder if your system gets used to some of the pathogens over time. I've seen some of the Amazon indians filter water from the side of a creek just like Dave is doing here and they suffer no ill effects from drinking it.

[kingmanted]

thanks for the videos dave!

[MrJPort10]

@wrenbrrd listen closely, he says it doesn't kill pathogens. But if Ur life depends on it and u don't have any way to disinfect the water, filtering it thru the sand gives you a fighting chance

[wrenbrrd]

I guess you knew that this particular water was alright to drink? (...since you were sipping from it without treating it.)  Or are you implying that a few sips wouldn't hurt? Please let me know. Thanks for this, and for this great channel! I just watched the 11-minute video on primitive water purification. Fantastic! I'm going to subscribe now.

[puppetmaster6483]

Is this a particular safe way to drink? Do i have to worry about bacteria or is it all filtered through the ground?

[jmg1957]

thanks for sharing...

[boomunderscore0]

Hey Dave, this is an awesome way to filter water but like you said doesnt kill the pathogens.. well, i dont know too much about water borne pathogens but if your body encountered some of the pathogens enough could your body build up a kind of immunity to it? or would any of them have long term kinds of effects or just bad news for your bowels a few nights after... thanks for the knowledge dave, seems we all just keep learning, day after day. take care

[briargoatkilla]

stomach quit gurgling yet? or did you take immodium before shooting this? if i drank this i could shit through a screen door and not touch a wire! just hackin on ya. awesome vid. i'll remember that if i'm in a pinch, or constipated! ;-)>

[johnu78]

Great video!

[MountainManWiggie]

Seems like the perfect situation for the Aquamira Frontier straw!

[TheBigpunn421]

that last sip was brown

[axishans]

I always love the H2O vids! thanks!

[700eyesonly007]

Thanks Dave! Really helpful.

[d5nuke]

Very good info. I was wondering how to get by with out boiling if that was not an option and this is easy. I could put a container in the hole to pull out and head back to the camp also.Thanks for the great info man

[chefdlb]

isnt that a gypsy well?

[cujomojo2007]

@chefdlb Very similar to a Gypsy well, used all over Europe well before the 1600's. America has a habit of re-naming things I have noticed. A Gypsy well is seldom dug near a running stream, more of a stagnant pool. Further from the waters edge, and deeper. There is no need to purify the water either, although you can if you want. Try and blow air through a handfull of soil, microbial organisms are too large for the interstitial spaces between alluvial soil particles.

[OzaawaaMigiziNini]

Very similar to the Gypsy Well. Well explained brother.

[markshmily]

Interesting..

If you were to loose your water container for some reason could you drop in a few drops of iodine? If you had it.

[wildernessoutfitters]

@markshmily Remember that water is seeping constanly in this hole so for this purpose a liner would be advised, garbage bag or whatever you had.

[chefdlb]

@wildernessoutfitters whats the difference between that and a gypsy well?

[jmmurdy]

cool

[drumgodtim]

Does the bank need to rock/sand, or could it be regular "soil" with grass and plants growing on it??? How about Southeastern clay??? Happy Thanksgiving Dave!!!

[wildernessoutfitters]

@drumgodtim Any media will work just some better than others

[surgicalshot]

Could you heat rocks and drop them in and boil the water that way?

[wishbone1138]

@surgicalshot I'm pretty sure he has videos of just that if you check his archives.

[wildernessoutfitters]

@surgicalshot Yes but new pathogeons would seep in from the ground as evaporation occured, you would need a liner before boiling

[wizardangel]

snails in stream , crawfish , minnows alive & active often the stream is reasonably good in my opinion ,,but when you can ,boil it ,,but recent water reports from mt streams have shocking toxic chem #'s ,,so research the area before ya depart ..just changing side of a Mt range can make the rate lower..living wildlife in water makes sence to me ,no insects around-troubled area,move

[123nody]

The weather is so nice in the USA here in Serbia just rain !

[Rhinoch8]

Yeah, but aren't WBP living in the mud of the bank, too?

[basszack]

Dave,have you ever drank contaminated water and got sick and if so how bad is it and what are the warning initial signs that one should be looking for? Are there any over the counter items that you would suggest as a precaution(anti diarrhea ect.) THANKS!!

[wildernessoutfitters]

@basszack I have never gotten sick from water even oversaes during DS but most WB pathegeons take days to manifest so in a true Survival situation better to drink and be recued alive and get sick at home. Antibiotics will take care of most of it in a few days.

[FixedByDoc]

@basszack i used to be a combat medic & highly suggest looking into wormwood tea for malaria but make sure you dont get the wrong kind of it, get the edible one. it is 99.9% effective on all strains of malaria & the doctor meds are only good for specific strains if they know which one you have second they are only 80% effective. the most common signs are similar to the flu with stomach cramps. most water bourne illness comes 7-10 days later but a small few can come 3-5 but not life threatening

[basszack]

@FixedByDoc Thanks I'll look into it!

[FixedByDoc]

well dave apparently you are a super hero to some based on the previous comments here lol. good video thanks for sharing...

[wildernessoutfitters]

@FixedByDoc I am just a common guy like all of you that lkoves to learn and share the knowledge brother. Thanks

[M249GUNNER1]

when are you doing a new episode of dual survival

[goldhunterify]

i like the browning tatto

[ernest302]

while your waiting for the water to clear pan that dirt for gold and gems that you might trade for food and gear / just a thought

[flamedrag18]

so in a sense, it's just to pre filter before boiling so you don't end up with a bunch of crap in the bottom of your pot.

[wildernessoutfitters]

@flamedrag18 True but if you cant boil it will remove some of the crap but obviously not all, anything is better than nothing at that point.

[flamedrag18]

@wildernessoutfitters ah

[dakdak88]

★★★★★ thanks for sharing the tip

[HappenZ50]

it is an gypsy-well

[wildernessoutfitters]

@HappenZ50 We call them this because Coyote will dig these in desert oroyos to find water as well.

[Pyromaniac1801]

Dear Dave,

You are awesome. That is all.

Sincerely,

Robert

[Trailtraveller]

Isn't this also called a gypsy-well ?

[AP0LL0edc]

Dave is Chuck Norris' long lost twin brother, separated at birth. They can both turn Giardia-infected water into cans of whoop-ass.

[scrm1]

@AP0LL0edc Dave knows his way around the woods like no other, doesn't he?

[032125]

I love how Dave specifically warns that that this won't kill Giardia, but then drinks the water anyhow. Apparently Dave uses a testosterone filter in his blood to kill Giardia.

[lexacor]

@032125 It's because of his level of awesome, it far exceeds the power of Giardia and makes him almost completely immune to infection :P

[032125]

@lexacor Agreed.

[juicedlemons]

right on

[TheDishD]

great tip cheers for that, take care and have a good and safe thanksgiving.
