Watching you doing an outdoor survival video is like watching the Special Olympics. On one hand I wanna laugh, and on the other hand I'm totally cheering you on.
Thanks for braving the urban woods of freaky night sounds to try out the hammock. I prefer tents or just a big tarp, plenty of space to hang out in rainy weather and my gear stays dry.
Tie a line to your support line for the rain water to run down before it gets to your tent. The majority of the water will take the path of least resistence.
It's good to see you out and about doing what you like my friend ill have to come USA and do some of this camping . big love to you and your family my friend
I stayed in a lay flat hammock the night before last very similar to what you have.. I borrowed it from a fellow RUclipsr to try out.. I am not a hammock person at all. It was really nice inside but it was constantly rocking, I was crunched up against the sides and it didn't lay flat and I kept sliding down.. so needless to say, at this point I am still not a hammock fan.. thanks for sharing the journey with this man! Enjoyed it
I use a regular hammock and love it, though there is certainly a learning curve. If you have a lay flat, amd you’re sliding down, it’s because it isn’t level, amd for the sides, you need to make sure it’s wide enough for you. I use a regular one, with a built in bug net, and a 9x9’ tarp, so I have a dry place to sit, leave my shoes etc…. The trick with a regular hammock is to not string it up tight, and lay as diagonally as possible. If you do it right, you’ll be almost flat. Some are made asymmetrical to make that easier. I can’t see myself in a tent again unless it’s winter.
To each their own my friend! This one is surprisingly stable! But i agree im not really a fan of the hammock. I like to be alert and my feet on the ground especially in my urban area where you never know if someone is going to come upon you. Your support is greatly appreciated my friend! Be safe out there!
@ That’s a good reason to use a traditional fly, and not the wrap around. You can set it up to keep you dry, and be able to see around your camp better than a tent. I got pretty spooked when I was camping alone in the bush when I heard wolves just outside my campsite before going to bed, so I was glad for it. It’s just that when it gets cold, the wind blows right through, so I set it with the sides down.
I USED to have a nightcat and loved it till it flipped me out, but that was my fault. It was designed to sink in the middle and I had this memory foam matt that gripped really well, so since it couldn't grip, it got too top-heavy. I'll probably buy this one, mine wasn't a lay flat, and the lay-flat looks like a really good improvement. As I type this I'm actually camping in a really spacious popup tent, freezing cold, gonna literally be below freezing tonight. I'm a bigfoot investigator, so the compactness of the hammock tents is really nice.
Hello great video I think it should have a couple of windows in it they don’t make tents like they use to have a good week here from Ontario Canada ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦😎
I think it's weird how only those tie downs drawed water through the seam tape. It wasn't bad, but like you said, in a downpour, how would it do? Still a good camp just to get out an test new product. Especially back in our favorite patch of weeds! Cool beans doggie... sees ya on the next one!! 🍻
You got that right! Thank you much for the continued support my friend! A lil silicone would probably save the rain fly but i would definitely like to look out and see what around me! Haha
I've wanted one of those Night Cat lay flat hammocks for awhile. It looks like if you just put a little seam sealant on those tie down points it should be good to go! That's not too bad for what is considered a budget company. Night Cat is a pretty good and reputable company, with a pretty big following. I have their regular bug net hammock, 4 or 5 tents from them, and one of their 70L backpacks! Overall I would be pretty happy with that for a first test. Now I believe I will have to go ahead and get me one!
@@TheOutdoorsMeGee looks like it might not be rain resistant 😂 Naw, thank you for giving me something to support. Without you, I wouldn't be here to comment. Besides, you're on of my favorite channels
@Buzz420 im glad you enjoy the shenanigans my friend! We gotta stay strong and keep on keeping on everyday brother! We just out here trying to wing this life and have a good time doing it! Yeehaw! Be safe out there!
Unless you’re camping in the cold, those wrap around flies are just stupid. They don’t give you a dry area to get out, or put your stuff. The fly on this is designed to pull apart the seams at the end, so it will leak sooner or later.
Nov 4,2024 4 Off-Grid 150 Person Enclosed Liveaboard Lifeboats Fully Inside Of An Amphibious Ship-Bunker Cabin Is The Only Way I'd Stay Safe/Warm and Away From The Wildlife Of Any Ghost Town That I Would Camp At While Traveling The Roads and Waterways Of The USA For Work Or Vacation Thank You Very Much + I See and Love YA RUclips Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots
It’s not a deer, they don’t like the rain , they can’t hear the sounds of the forest when it’s pouring. More likely it was the ghost of all the mickeys you’ve killed in those trees.
Manufactures do not seam seal because it needs to be set up and have 8 hrs or so to dry. You can get the product your self, I get a tarp and grommet kit from Harbor Freight and use it as a rain fly. Looking forward to the snow camping I will have a chance to do that this year and any tips would be great. Stay safe.
Just what I was looking for, another great adventure from the King of shenanigans. You never fail to entertain.
Thank you very much my friend! Im glad you enjoy!
Makes me happy to see you back out in this little patch of woods. Can't wait to see the new adventures you come up with.
Thank you very much my friend! Im glad you enjoy the shenanigans!
Keep up the hard work you are putting in mate as you are smashing the videos 🙏✌️🤙
Thank you much my friend! Just out here winging it!
Watching you doing an outdoor survival video is like watching the Special Olympics. On one hand I wanna laugh, and on the other hand I'm totally cheering you on.
Haha! Wheres your videos haha
@TheOutdoorsMeGee they're on DVD for sell at the Dollar General, where you bought your dinner...
@RickAngell 🤣😂🤣😂 makes sense!
That’s a good one. I’m keeping that one. lol
Wow!!! That hammock is huge.
😎👍🏻👍🏻
Very cool!!!!
Thanks my friend!
Seam sealant..,!👍 Always bring a small tube..
Great firestarter also.. ❤
Great tip. 👍🏼
Great video. the "storage area" underneath is actually where your sleeping pad goes
Interesting. Even their website shows the pad inside the hammock. Possibly an option though.
great vdieo MeGee, Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching it my friend!
Your video is amazing, I love yours and thanks for sharing.🥰
Thank you very much! Im glad you enjoy the shenanigans!
Yes man. I'm jelouse. I want one hamik like that. Hell yes 🎉😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂
Thanks for braving the urban woods of freaky night sounds to try out the hammock. I prefer tents or just a big tarp, plenty of space to hang out in rainy weather and my gear stays dry.
You got that right my friend! Thanks for watching!
Yeah I use a separate tarp with my flat lay hammock so I can see out. Might try that next time. Thanks for sharing!
Ya i would definitely like that better! Being able to see and move around a bit would be a great peace of mind!
Thanks for watching my friend!
Water is allways running to the deepest point. Lol
Good video. Enjoyed your Setup 👍
Thank you! Im glad you enjoyed!
Hello there MeGee. Good video man. Loved it dude. Awesome and far-out 😊

I might have to try that style hammock. Great video brother
I like it better than the traditional for sure! Thanks for your continued support!

Agreed my friend! Thanks for watching the shenanigans! Have a great week as well!
Wow great adventure sir idol😮❤👍
Thank you!
Seems like a useful light pack shelter. I heard the grunting.
It definitely packs down pretty decent! Im not sure what the heck that was!
Great Vid
Thank you very much!
Pretty spiffy little set up....😳
Just add A cheap tarp when its raining .. Awesome video
Thank you much my friend!
I just ordered a 3mx3m tree camo tarp
I think it's weird how only those tie downs drawed water through the seam tape. It wasn't bad, but like you said, in a downpour, how would it do?
Still a good camp just to get out an test new product. Especially back in our favorite patch of weeds! Cool beans doggie... sees ya on the next one!! 🍻

Guess I better just start posting on sundays lol
Let’s flicking goee
Yeehaw!!!
@ it’s dope as hell man straight up
@MisterPerson-yr6mk definitely a nice little set up. I like it better than a traditional hammock for sure!
@ that’s awesome man, we all strive for life in the hammock like natures uterus just perfect
@MisterPerson-yr6mk 😂🤣😂🤣 well said my friend!
I would have heartburn so bad from chili..you need to carry a gun with you or an air horn🤣🤣..by the way your laugh kills me🤣🤣
🤣😂🤣😂 im glad you get a laught at least!
Fajny film 😎 pozdrawiam z Polski🙂
Only the 2nd video i think that ive seen your channel. Nice review . All the best brother.... new subscriber here
Thank you very much for your support! You as well stay safe out there!
Whenever I sleep in a hammock I put a tarp over the top ten you can leave the front open.
Maybe you could spray it with some waterproof spray or seam seal it.
Yes indeed my friend!
Think it was a beaver orrrrrrr was it Sasquatch…. Hhmmmn - Stay safe buddy!
Hahaha samsqanch would have probably taken that opportunity to punt me over the creek while still in the hammock haha
Stay safe as well man!
Is there a weight limit on the tag? What about length? Looks cool but I'm a big guy. Hey man, good to see you doing well. Love the honest reviews 🍻
PS.
That's a bear-rito tent😂 you should get together with @stevewallis & do a stealth camp
440 weight limit and the website says dimensions as follows my friend!
87x28x19IN (LxWxH) .
Your support is greatly appreciated thank you!

Anything advertised as "waterproof" means sort of, a little bit, waterproof. We tried!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣 you got that right!

Ya well said my friend.
Doesn't seem as though the seams weren't taped properly or at all. A simple can of spray water proofing will solve the whole issue of the minor leaks.
You got that right!
Get some epoxy resin to seal up those leaks, and you should be good to go.
Yes indeed my friend!
❤❤❤❤❤
🥰
I have one. It’s heavy and my back hurts in the morning.
Well thats not good!
Yup yup. I want one. For sure. Even if I never use it. I would know I have bitchen bivvy
🤣😂🤣😂
You're freaking out and bugging out!😳😳😳😳
You would have had to been there to understand and hear the noises!
Use some leaves for insulation. That looks weak
In a survival situation. Certainly. But this is just some urban woods testing a hammock.
Estás haciendo el video a 100 metros de una carretera.... Jajaja
Yep thats why i said urban location 😂🤣😂🤣

to me this seens to be a a 2 part tent 1 gbeing cot the other being tent
MG!!!! You sleeping in a bear burrito these days my friend ;) Just need to baste yourself in a little Mickeys and the wouldnt be able tp resist!!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
It would’ve helped immensely if you had put it up properly! I’ve one,…..been out in thunderstorms and never a drip!
Was up properly according to specs. Maybe this one just didn't get seam taped as good as yours......
Alot more "interesting" than "magicals" this video..
Sometimes thats the way the cookie crumbles lol
59k brotherman.
Seems to be doing well my friend!
@
Yeah, that’s pretty neat buster.
no higher, off the ground all that counts
Haha thanks! True that!
yep dont like it with no window
$320
whatever!
I mean whatever lol
recommendation: speak less and more clearly.
Not everyones cup of tea and that ok!
That hammock is a piece of crap. enough said.
Any recommendations for a decent lay flat?

Well said my friend! An bring extra socks and dress warm. An if you cant feel your toes its times to goes haha be safe out there!
Camping behind someone backyard or something, what’s all those noise.
Its an urban set of woods in the middle of the city
