it is the most educational video on youtube when it comes to outdoor life, and I hope you make more like that video, so that we can learn more from you!
Hello mate! I'm dead curious - that pouch on your belt looks quite big. Is that the DPM Utility pouch, that loads of people use for their Pattern 58 Bottles?
I'm very curious to know if it is - I've been curious about its performance as a belt pouch, because it would be easy to mount there, but I've never dared to try!
Great video... really like your no faffing (messing) about approach... just get on with it !!! Brilliant... I agree with other comments, you need to do some more videos !!!
I love the chair idea. After years of scouting, camping, and learning about wilderness survival, it never crossed my mind to think about something like that. Well done.
great video. Have u ever made a teepee from a basha? i want to buy a 3mx3m canvas tarp to use as a shelter because there are numerous configurations for tarps..i want to make the teepee design because it enables a fire to be lit inside the shelter.
That's fantastic, and I've seen you make a "Sack Bed" as well as a pillow. Please tell me, what kind of sacks do you use? I ask because I'd of course want to ensure whichever I choose could support a man's weight..Thanks
It's taken a long time to finaly get registerd with youtube. i can now leave comments.I totaly agree with you on the equipment side of things no need for all that crazy stuff, i really enjoy your videos keep them coming.
Still one of my favorite bushcraft videos. You get right to the point, and do it right the first time. Someday I hope to have the skill and confidence you do. Have a good one.
This is a nice shelter design. Common during the early days of the USA from the Eastern wilderness to the California gold fields. I know of one from 1910 that is still standing but has split cedar roof and ground level supports that were coated with pitch and the bed legs are sitting in old tobacco cans to keep the bugs off the bed, of course the bed legs are rotted down and the bed now sits on the cans but the bed straw is still dry or was in 1996 when I found it. Dated it by letter in a glass.
I just watched the series of videos you posted, I have to say thank you. I love the knives that you are using: Some Opinels )I think), a machete, a small axe, and a few different saws (I imagine you are not taking all of them with you at the same time). Everything is light and easy to carry, the only thing weighting you down in the axe but there is no way around that. Fantastic setup. Cheers to you!
Thanks a ton for this video. Another person on youtube made one of these videos, but he started the fire with a match. His purpose was to demonstrate how resin works, but he still lost a lot of credibility by using something that a stranded person would likely not have access to
HEY, nice shelter. i love all your videos - the long term survival shelter is awesome too! im also from wales (newport) and often go up wentwood forest, would be great if i could one day have your knowledge!
why go thru all that trouble when you can jst go to wal-mart and buy a tent and a chair? you dnt seem to bother luggin around a poncho and a potato sack. oh, n while youre at wal-mart, dnt forget to buy you a lighter and some canned goods so you dnt hve to eat maggots, snakes and leaves out there.
@FALUBWA That is the difference between a self reliant man. And a slave like yourself. A bit of advice Falubwa don't make eye contact with anyone in the soup line, or you will go to bed hungry. And don't eat the bread at camp FEMA.
@anvilock you sound like one of them anti-social bitter degenerates who think they have the answer to everything. its just too bad your animosity stems from living off soup lines and blaming the others for your failures in life. to tell you the truth, youre no survivalist. youre just a dumbass hillbilly. so sit in your mountain shack, eat your leaves and your grubs and shut the fuk fup!
Your dendrology skills seem to be lacking. The tree in your video is not a Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii), but actually a balsam fir (Abies balsamea). The resin or "balsam" is also used as an optic cement for microscope lenses, because of its ideal light refraction characteristics
I would like to see more videos if you're willing. I heard your comment about your kit being basically nothing. Would you share what you use for cooking and water gathering/filtering?
hey nice to see another welsh man on here what part of wales you from west wales i think by the accent great vid by the way ,keep it up and well done.
I have just watched all of your video's. Enjoyed them very much. Why has it been a year since the last one? I would encourage you to start it up again.
funny because this guy isnt english, HES WELSH you dumb yank shit!
furthermore if you hear a english person speaking enlgish and think he/she cant speak it very well keep in mind tha is what english is meant to sound like. keep to your "american english"
People who ask why you would build a comfortable seat and pour scorn unpun this guy for posting a very informative video, should not be whatching in the first place.
i like the chair, and thankyou for teaching me the trick to harvest the resin ,
all i would say though is that beech trees are fallen because they are weak , and if there are other beech in the area, dont camp there in bad weather , they are likely to come down
y is every1 saying build a fire first, did they not notice the other 1400 people who wrote it?(sarcastic of course) and hes doing it for show, hes not actually lost so stop complaining
build the fire first. In an emergency situation, it is the first and most dire concern.
If it rains while you are busy building your chair and shelter, your wood will be harder to light. Also, if you have broken a bone(think plane crash, etc), your body needs to use that adrenaline , because if you don`t, it will leave you exhausted and exposed to the pain, and you will not be ABLE to gather firewood.
If it is IMPOSSIBLE to build a fire, one should take measures to guard the body warmth as much as possible. In some areas the temperature can drop MARKEDLY at night.
You have good ideas, but please stress this point. in your videos. You may be endangering many people by not telling them this critical fact.
Actually. I build my fire second. 1 because its to dangerous to be gathering materials for a shelter at night. 2 because a fire is extremely easy to start. and 3. because if it rains alot like it does down here then youll need something to cover the fire.
what you mean is the resin of cannabis which has thc, cbn and cbd in it...that'S the stuff you mean it reacts in your cerebellum at the receptors cb1 and cb2...

If it rains while you are busy building your chair and shelter, your wood will be harder to light. Also, if you have broken a bone(think plane crash, etc), your body needs to use that adrenaline , because if you don`t, it will leave you exhausted and exposed to the pain, and you will not be ABLE to gather firewood.
windchild81 2 years ago
A good fire will keep you dry and will keep going in the rain if built right and kept hot enough.
It will also keep wild animals at bay, and serve as a signal to those looking for you.
It can also purify and sterilize water for drinking and for cleaning wounds.
The shelter and especially the chair can wait. Any survival situation requires a fire first.
windchild81 2 years ago
If it is IMPOSSIBLE to build a fire, one should take measures to guard the body warmth as much as possible. In some areas the temperature can drop MARKEDLY at night.
You have good ideas, but please stress this point. in your videos. You may be endangering many people by not telling them this critical fact.
windchild81 2 years ago

windchild81 2 years ago
Very good, BUT
ALWAYS build the fire first.
ALWAYS.
do NOT build your shelter first.
do NOT build a DECK CHAIR.
get your fire built. Then if it rains, you won`t DIE.
Fire/warmth, shelter (with dry wood INSIDE if possible), water, food, DECK CHAIR.
In that order.
I can`t stress that enough. It is SO important to get your FIRE built first.
windchild81 2 years ago
Actually. I build my fire second. 1 because its to dangerous to be gathering materials for a shelter at night. 2 because a fire is extremely easy to start. and 3. because if it rains alot like it does down here then youll need something to cover the fire.
