- After weeks of evading enemy forces many individuals throughout history have found themselves in a difficult situation. Though no longer hunted or pursued, they are none the less still far from civilization and with limited supplies. Often injured, run down, and dehydrated. Many have died in these circumstances. With proper training and preparation you can survive these harsh conditions. In today’s video we give you a intro to Combat Survival.

These arma 3 tips are the best I've ever heard. This dude has to have at least 5k hours ingame
Actually, he trains in Minecraft.
Patiently waiting for the collab
Which unit is this? Looks like they have Ace enabled
Whats up drewski
he also plays Roblox
I saw Garandthumb once say the "Becoming Deadly in the Mountains" series didn't get enough views compared to other content. Looking back, each video has 2m-4m+ while other content is sitting between 500k-2m.
Even if they are a slow burn, people keeping coming back to this series to refresh their memory. Don't stop this time Mike!
Well said. It's what he did when he was active, and he's damn good at it. Without him I probably wouldn't do any of these things, and get some buddies to do it with me
At some point, its like Elon said about the value of "x".. It is priceless. It's occasionally not about the money but saving lives, and in Elon's case civilization.
These videos are awesome. I love longer form content when the content is good (i.e. made by people of Garand Thumb's caliber)
Good observation. i watch the other videos because they are fun but ultimately this material is why i stay. These are an invaluable resource and that cant be understated. Id pay for a complete series
I hope we can get some more cqb ones in the future
The best part about these videos is how clearly passionate Mike is about this stuff. Dude must have killed it as a SERE instructor.
Hell yea, hes the undisputed champ in my book too
I was thinking the same thing. You can tell he fell back into instructor mode and loves it.
I wish I had him when I went through SERE
As a civilian paramedic it took me years to realize why I never use tourniquets. I finally realized that by the time I arrived 10-20 mins after the incident if they were still alive they probably didn’t need a tourniquet. If they needed a tourniquet, it was probably too late by the time I got there
Yep! Combat medic in civilian paramedic school right now, and even with modern medicine, roughly 2/3-3/4 of combat casualties die regardless of medic intervention because they can’t always immediately get to said patient. Doesn’t matter if you have a tourniquet if your patient’s femoral has been cut for 3 minutes now. Combat medicine, at least to the level 68Ws are taught, doesn’t really work in the survival scenario like this. Those patients almost always get definitive care in the first 4-6 hours, or, at least, they have for the last 20 years
Yeah 100%. People gave the russian conscripts a lot of flack in early 2023 because of the rudimentary medical equipment (basically just an Esmarch rubber torniquet & a large pack of gauze), but the reality is that in a high intensity war under constant shelling, the air corridor being denied by AA especially for slow movers like helos and constant enemy drone surveillance where you might be cut off from resupply & medevac for days or weeks, anything that cant be stabilized by gauze, antibiotics & rudimentary pain medication is going to result in a fatality way before extraction is possible anyway.
More of this content! Not gun reviews, but cinematic movies like this is what makes GarandThumb so valuable and entertaining!
you get a little bit of everything
@@GarandThumbWe said, more of this content.
Instructional content like this is the best content from Garand thumb
Gun reviews are still nice and he does a good job with them. I would say they add to the value and entertainment
@@GarandThumbThat's what she said.
"The world is brutal, the world is violent, and nobody cares." Heavy and true.
I care! I'm reminded of a quote from my favorite western writer, Louis L'Amour, "He recognized the feeling for what it was - the need within himself to protect & care for something beyond himself. It was that, in part, that had led him into so many fights that were not his own; & yet, was not the cause of human freedom & liberty every man's trust?"
The answer for every real man with a moral compass, is an emphatic yes!
I am my brother's keeper starting with my family. & the best way for a man to protect his family is to defend his country. I took an Oath. I will honor my Oath.
no one cares
Amen to that. Mike dropped a deep and heavy truth bomb there. That's why his knowledge he's sharing with us is so important, but like he said he can't give you the know-how to do it, it's up to you to practice and become more proficient at these skills. I'm trying to get back in shape because running is not my strong point.
@embersuhnuhk346 ha my PawPaw loved to read Louis L'Amour books especially his western books. I guess I need to pick up a few of his books
@embersuhnuhk346 great quote by the way
As a retired JTAC myself, I fully appreciate your output of information and work you and your teams have done during your tenure in the military as well as getting these videos out.
This video gave me flashbacks of -35 degree temps and 5 ft snowdrifts while traversing the mountains up there during survival school. It was an absolute blast. I’m passing my skills on to my grandsons now.
GUNHO! The Strong Shall Stand….!
Thank you for your service sir.
The sheer amount of things I've learned from watching this man, is immeasurable. He is a wealth of knowledge, and he actually cares about us. He wants us to succeed, and to survive what's coming. We all owe u a debt of gratitude flannel daddy. And I'd fight by your side with pride brother. Keep em coming!!!
"The world is brutal, the world is violent, the only person who is going to be able to save you is yourself"
As a young man I would have thought these words somewhat callous, as an older man I see them as the most compassionate, loving, and caring.
Mike, thank you for helping people.
Actually the only person who is going to be able to save you is artillery battery on fast dial
@@janisladigs7825correct!

Could we get just an hour long video of mr. Thumb just chilling in the woods giving out dad advice?
A Garand Thumb podcast but its just him sitting by a river for 6 hours 😭
Y’all were given wranglerstar and still complain
Way better than EA and Activision, At least in Metal Gear’s level 😮
@jacobroy586 good point. We need brotherly advice from GT
@@jacobroy586Wranglerstar used to be great when he just acted like himself. Back when he actually did homestead videos. Now he’s leaning too hard into the “Alpha” “chad” type videos. It just doesn’t suit him at his age. I miss when he just talked about being a useful member of a community.
Please don’t stop putting out these videos Mike. Some bad shit is definitely on the horizon for our country and we need people like you to expand on or even jump start our knowledge to learning these skills for the future
Poncho sales after this video 📈📈
Which poncho was he using?
Helikon tex us poncho if im not mistaking
Quickly becoming one of the most valuable information libraries on RUclips.
And with that kind of acting you could direct a movie!!
All the love from Holland
Reminder to save it offline
Mike, flannel daddy, for those of us who have been watching since you were an active duty enlisted SERE instructor… all of us GWOT boots who have watched you from the beginning feel like proud plaid dads at the arc of your content quality.
This is important work. You are giving America the knowledge to return to being a nation of riflemen.
He is giving the entire world the knowledge🥰
Dammit, I fixed a misspelled word and lost my flannel daddy heart.
Sadness has overcome me.
@@ekfinn post it now! I wanna see a flannel emoji
Mr. Thumb is the PSA rifle company of the guntubers.
Anything you do, anything you learn that the tyrants hate is the correct thing to learn. Because information like this is what tyrants fear most.
A Sincere - Thank you and your camera - fellow team member for taking the time to share your skills and knowledge with us.
I just want to thank you for this information, my friends, and I have done some very very minor survival trip/challenges with each other, and adding the element of being hunted is something we may have to implement, I never really thought about how close we could be to some of these circumstances. So thank you so much for everything you do!!!
I really hope you guys understand how appreciative we as a community are for this quality content. We couldn't possibly have a more qualified instructor.
Very true
Legit could have a lot more qualified instructors.
I knew there'd be someone just to say "nuh uh". Internet standard. People cannot help themselves.
He was a frikken SERE instructor. Pretty qualified if you ask me. SERE sucked but those guys are full up and know their stuff.
@@midwestgruntyears and years of SERE instruction, he’s as qualified as we could possibly need
@@midwestgrunt like you, right?
That fall, hobble, and crawl was epic. Give this man an Oscar.
Finally a guy willing to go the extra mile to bring us quality info. Never seen this channel before. I hope he has more cool videos to go back and watch.
Amen to that
I love this series please make more. I hope you make one discussing survival in a colder climate how to layer, move and hide ETC. Keep this material coming.
I myself am from Cyprus (an occupied island by turkey which is war torn) but for Israelis, Ukrainians and countless other people from many other places in the world these videos are gold. For the people that hate on these videos and comment on how pointless they are for civilians you are clearly stating how short-sighted you are with no knowledge of how in an instant grids and city systems can collapse. As a reservist for the national guard of my country and a person interested in my own and my families safety I appreciate your content and the whole series especially and have great respect for you as a portion of your knowledge is more than most of us will ever have the chance to ever learn. Keep up the great content, I wish the best for you.
Man this could and should be a huge series. And homie gives it to us for free on youtube. Brother you are a wealth of information and we appreciate you.
These are my favorite types of videos you guys put out. I love the real world, useful tips that plays into my paranoia. Would love to see this in a group/team setting. All the minute details about doing all these things in a unit. I would imagine surviving on your own in easier in the sense of being tracked and food scarcity. Would love to see you do more like this!
You information you share just keeps getting better. Thank you for what you do
I hope everybody understands, how valuable these "becoming deadly" videos are...
the amount of knowledge transfer is insane!
THANK YOU FOR THAT!
"valuable"
Knowledge transfer 😂
Using that GBRS slang aye mate 😂
Knowledge transfer 🤓
Hell yeah I soak up as much as I can from it but I do not practice enough
I don't think people realize the difference in backwoods, versus rural, versus urban living. A matter of a few miles could change how you grow up completely.
100% my friend
@@GarandThumb I got my first BB gun the day I was born! First kill with it took a few more years though 😀
The best 1 hour of training I've seen, thanks for sharing, hopefully more people watch and then go out and practice, practice, practice, the world is out of balence.
Damn good series man. Excellent content and some pretty damn important life saving techniques that everyone needs to learn sooner and not later. Garand Thumb took his content to the next level and at a time that everybody should watch and listen to and apply. The time where this is going to actually come into play is a lot sooner than any of you think. This time the battles are going to be on our city streets, in our neighborhoods. No matter where you live you will not be able to avoid it. Take the time to watch this series of videos with your family, because everybody in the family is going to be affected by what is coming. Keep up the excellent work and keep the content coming.
Mike and Micah deserve an Oscar. Change my mind.
the oscars are a bullshit political prize, they deserve an authentic prize for filmmaking not that. did i change it?
Best available argument: Receiving an Oscar requires traveling into, and prolonged retention within, downtown Hollywood. Juice isn't worth the squeeze.
@@seanfager8063 New series: Being Deadly Behind Liberal Lines.
@@seanfager8063 he did just do the urban egress video, so if he follows all that stuff he should make it out alive and with all of his testosterone intact.
@@je2848yes, show us how to filter the estrogen out of the tap water!
German Veteran of the 231st Gebirgsjägerbataillon (23rd Gebirgsjägerbrigade) here.
And i just watched your "Becoming Deadly in the Mountains" Series recently and got to applaud it, definitely my favourite Series.
Though as a trained Gebirgsjäger who served for 6 Years i might be biased regarding anything Mountain Warfare related haha.
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps and keep those Videos coming!
I thought mountain Germans were in Austria. Any tips or advice to share komerad?
@@griftinggamer
Oh we Bavarians are very well in the Mountains, at least here in the south. Just google search "Berchtesgadener Land" that's where i'm from and where we had our training, usually around the town of "Bad Reichenhall". We get a lot of American Tourists here (especially visiting the Eagle's Nest which i can see from my House!) so i thank those Tourists for learning english very early on.
Tons of tips and advice, but you got to be more specific than that. Though i must say Garand Thumb does a pretty great job on the Basics and then some.
Solid video. I had the great good fortune of having a grandpa who spent his entire adult life leading expeditions into the wilderness of Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Alaska, and British Columbia. Visually he was an unassuming man and generally difficult to get along with, but he saved people's lives on more than a handful of occasions. I failed to fully appreciate everything he taught me as a kid, but I'm sure glad he did. While I haven't ever received compensation or considered myself an "expert" I have been invited to teach basic courses for boy scouts, wildland fire fighters, photographers, and biology students. Every time I've done it I hear grandpa words coming from my mouth. RIP grandpa and thank you.
Thank you for putting this information together and sharing it. It’s truly a blessing to our home. We are going to start practicing these exercises regularly to stay sharp.
Please do a video about "Becoming Deadly In The Mountains with Family"; it's not always going to be just you and the home boys. Something could have happened near your home in which you were fighting, and now you are escaping, but you have a few non-combatants who are following you to safety.
This! @GarandThumb
Brilliant!👏
gotta know how to protect those who cant protect themselves 🙏🏾

The sheer amount of effort required to produce content at this elevated level puts Mike above and beyond virtually all other RUclipsrs. Passing on your experience for free to anyone who needs it is true service. Thanks. 🏴
It's not much effort.. They walk through the woods for an hour and talk to the camera.
The effort comes from the years of training and trial and error iterations to come to these conclusions.
@@calholli I'm guessing you've never instructed or been involved in film making, I'm not having a go. There is a huge amount of time in sorting out the goal of the film, where it sits in the series, what subjects will be covered, story board/lesson plan, rough script, planning locations, getting any equipment out to locations, reshooting scenes, dry runs, etc. All the way to cleaning kit and editing afterwards. You do not get this quality of film from two guys wandering in the woods lol. Add to that a desire to pass on the hard gained experience and knowledge to anyone who wants it and to do that free to the end user is nothing short of brilliant.
@@vonsprague7913 To say that it's free is a bit silly. He has four thousand patreon members at five dollar minimum per month. So that's twenty thousand alone. Analytics says he's getting 15M views per month, that's seventy-five thousand dlollars per month by youtube alone, plus youtube ads,.. plus each sponsorship read they do in the start of every video will typically pay 10k per every million views, which EVERY video is over a million these days. So he's making a good chunk of change.. granted youtube may demonetize some videos and that's a headache.. but the patreon and sponsorships are always there. Plus he has his own website, and other donation channels. affiliate links for gear. plus they have their own training company which this channel is a constant advertisement for-- that alone makes it worth doing it for "free"-- let alone all the cash that is coming in. Make no mistake, he has 3.5M subscribers.. Channels this big can make a quarter million per month very consistently. Granted gun channels will be less consistent because youtube zucks azz. But this is a cash cow in many more ways than one.
@@calholliwhat’s your channel?
Dude.. this is another level. I didn't know this guy was a combat vet, I didn't even recognized him when the video started 🤯
Thank you for the time you take out of your day to make content and teach us how to survive when I feel like I'm losing motivation for training I just watch one of your videos and it pushes me to not give up and keep moving forward. 😎
Man, you guys are really standing head & shoulders above the pack these days. This isn't just good content, it's excellent information that people need. Many thanks to Mike and the crew; this is an important series! That opening line of "the world is violent & nobody cares (about you)" is so very true...
Why is this content we “need”. I’m a thousand miles from any fucking mountains.
@@midwestgruntprobably because when shit hits the fan you wanna get Tf out of the city into the mountains
Yes!
🔴 13:45 Additional tip for feet: dipping your feet in a cold stream will rejuvenate tired feet. I hiked 500 km in Japan in 10 days, 50 km everyday back-to-back (that's like 30 miles everyday), and those cold streams really made a difference.
Edit: converted km to freedom units
Thanks for taking your time to create a video during a mission.
Bro is literally Captain Price
This series is so damn educational. People don’t understand how much you’d pay to get this information otherwise. Hundreds of thousands if not more spent to get Mike this training and he’s here passing it on to us.
Flannel Daddy is a real one 🤙🏼
As a Marine it was all about the feet. Long patrols or humps “rucks” when we would stop for a few minutes I would take of my boots and change my socks. You’re feet will thank you. Blistered feet will kill your at the least blisters will kill your day.
@@FredVanHook same thing they still teach today.
Do you have any examples
@@Gorbachof of?
@@Gorbachof examples of how in a combat environment you live and die by your feet? Sit out on a 30 mile ruck or hump with a combat load, don’t rotate your fresh socks on your feet and see how far you can get after your feet become bloody and blistered. Moleskin and superglue won’t take you too far or make up for what rotating out a pair of fresh dry socks will do. In many environments your only transportation is your black Cadillac’s aka boots…
Legend has it, Mike's been out here since the last upload about surviving in the mountains. 3 weeks strong
He is the Mountain 😅
😂😂😂😂
They’re about to send in Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris wouldn’t have to search for him, the mountains would give him up out of fear of Chuck Norris 😳
Love this sort of content :) Great information for a city person like me who only occasionally gets into the woods for camping/multi day airsoft events. In other words, very limited exposure to elements. Very helpful and nice how, just as one example, you took the time to show how to tie up knots that are easy to take down without messing up your ropes. Stuff like that may not be obvious for someone like me, and was great to learn!
This is the second time I've watched this. First time I didn't notice the ominous music in the background, it's a solid effect. It helps to convey urgency and how serious this is.
These are not the videos we deserve, but they are the ones we need right now.
Yes, but Sere school must not teach about 90 degree spines lol..
@@brianmaxey7568 It bothered me watching him use the blade too, a lot of knives don't have a good spine though. Morakniv garberg is great for this lol
Great survival class on line Mike you are an incredible instructor thanks some of us are disabled somewhat can you come up with a survival course for us thanks
We deserve..?
As someone who's not military, I appreciate the time taken to teach us in this series! Pure GOLD 💰💰
Very few people in the military get this sort of training.
@praharin yea this is Ranger Tier stuff not grunt level make it back to base in 1 piece
Take a wilderness first responder or emt course
hes a real good communicator ay
@@praharin Even basic infantry here in Australia get this kind of training. We're a small army so we need all of our soldiers to be well versed in different roles and skills.
Was wilderness trained at NOLS for EMT-B while working on a wild land fire crew. Thanks dude- you rock. Gotta train...
Wow your acting in the beginning was better than any movie where a guy was shot during survival I ever saw.... WOW MAN... From the spit flying off your lips fromm heaving air to the shaking hands from pain... I felt it inside... I really felt it !!!
All of this series saved and watched multiple times. I’ve attended the school you taught and deployed multiple times and still find these videos very valuable Mike. Combat medicine would be a great video to have a medic on to do. Thank you.
always good to have a refresher
I just wanna say I'm really glad that Micah is there to ask some of the questions we all have. Much love Micah and glad you're there with him!
Not only that, but he is also a phenomenal camera man :)
Not only that, but he is also a phenomenal camera man :)
Nice guys as always awesome, thanks from Australia! I'm currently in the process of joining the infantry in Australia and I find this really educational for me before I'm thrown in the deep end! Thanks from Daniel from down Under!!!!!
I LOVE these series! Please Garand, make more in all weather types.
Tactical paramedic here. Converting a TQ to a pressure dressing is definitely a thing in the prolonged field care scenario. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
I agree, this is critical. It needs to be brought up more often.
Trauma gear trauma gear trauma gear
That used to be taught in CLS. The prevailing idea was that a TQ was the last resort. If you did use one and weren't medevac'd within 30 minutes or an hour, I can't remember, you were to attempt to take the TQ off. GWOT TTPs and knowledge gained changed all that.
I feel like this is Flannel Dad's grand piece of sorts (this series, both urban and mountain) where it's a culmination of a lot of the stuff he taught being put into a video format and made accessible to people at lower levels
Mad respect
Mike is really doing the Lord's work when it comes to getting this information out to a lot of people. However, all of this information has been public for decades, and Mike is merely giving an overview. It's important to remember that this is very surface level and we must continue our education on our own.
@@220_Swift Indeed, and I wouldn't have it any other way
Considering that:
- Surface level fundamentals are extremely prevalent and only get better with practice
- Other fantastic people make this kinda stuff their livelihood and it would be unfair to cockblock them from their jobs
All up in your feels
"Like you're doing coke or something." Leave it to Mike to come up with the most relatable analogies.
Love your teaching videos sir, please keep ‘em up
As a vet and someone who loves learning bushcraft, foraging, and survival skills, I'm LOVING this series you've been putting out. Thank you for the knowledge!
This is a goldmine of video. You’re a good man for putting this out there for free. We all appreciate you.
Everyone in the west is going to need this unfortunately
Yeah much thanks! Honestly.
Would you be able to create a combat survival video in an arctic environment? Specifically, demonstrate how to leverage snow and cold weather to your advantage and highlight the big fat disadvantages they pose.
Thanks for posting. I appreciate the info
The Captain Price we need, not the one we deserve💪
Thank you for this incredibly well-done series💯

I was expecting at least an attempt of the accent!
@@aaronevans9618 LOL There is only ONE captain Price! But heck ya, That would have been cool!
@@americathefree3708 well we did get better info from GT than price lol
“That signal is very easily detectable, intercepted, and umm.. exploited. And you’re gonna catch a hellfire.”
It’s lines like these that make us love you Mike
From who?
Thank you, Garand Thumb, for this video! More please and fast, sir. God bless ya for helping us!
Learning 6 or 8 essential knots WELL, like a clove hitch, trucker's hitch, Prussik hitch, etc. will really help. Insulating your sleeping area with DRY mop, DRY leaves and evergreen boughs is essential. When breaking camp it is also essential to scatter any camp evidence.
Enemy choppers may have thermal vision so hide UNDE a rock, upended tree root, etc.
This series is unbelievably high production value, knowledge value, moral value. We are blessed to have access to this.
I can't believe I can watch this FOR FREE. This is absolutely insane quality in production and a great lesson!
Thanks for the great info, Capt. Price!
Thanks so much for all these videos honestly
To see the gravity of these videos and his personality vs the levity and goofing around feel of his other videos is insane. He's like a totally different person
he goofs around hella
I'm not sure how I got down this YT rabbit hole but I am so glad I did. I'm a 43 y.o. urban single woman with zero survival skills outside of basic handgun training. Somehow I feel much better having to think about these skills in case it ever comes up. Just being better prepared (urban evasion and go-pack videos) will make a huge difference if the worst should occur. Thanks for this content.
If you make the time and practice this stuff it really helps build your confidence as well!
You landed on the best out there
Start with short camping trips where you get used to being in the woods and can practice some of this stuff. Start small and remember, Rome wasn't built in a day.
He has a video on an urban survival as well. Scan the channel, it's entertaining and educational.
big cities are going to be a war zone one day.
Great set of videos. Please keep ‘em coming. I’ve enjoyed your content for several years now. This series is by far the best you’ve ever made. Love it!
Really hope there is a “becoming deadly in the desert” series after these. Love this series!!
Evade the desert all together, jk
I live in Florida we don't have mountains or deserts... Lol
Yeah I live in the desert and that would be great, however, that is a very different environment and he might not have a lot of experience in the desert, but most of his stuff here can be applied to the desert.
Yes without a doubt!
@@danielkantor5693 becoming deadly in the swamp
I LOVED the original Becoming Deadly videos from a few years ago. I'm really glad Garand started up again because it's super interesting.
Speaking as a former Marine, proficiency in combat tactics is a must for any man who is serious about protecting his land.
@@tempacct5812yessir. God Bless America 🇺🇸
Fantastic video. I have as many questions as answers now but it's absolutely going to up my bushcraft/hunting game.
I’m honestly considering on watching this video every now and then as it’s very helpful for both combat and general survival purposes. It’s really helpful knowledge you need to know just in case those types of situations happen
I can see the SERE instructor come out when you do these. Mad respect. I hope these never get taken down, so we can all review often. Great acting btw
On the topic of evasion fires, I always carried a canteen cup on me in the Corps and a couple travel sized germx bottles putting the germx in the canteen cup and lighting it produces portable heat with no visible flame or smoke, a really good trick to try out if you get interested in it with the added benefit of doubling as a way of keeping clean.
Absolutely on merino wool socks. I use them every day. People think they're too much for hot weather but they actually stay cooler due to the wicking and really save your feet.
Thank you for making this knowledge publicly available, we may need it sooner than we think or hope.
I've been watching Mike for years it feels like. This man has gone from shooting at dirt mounds for gun reviews, to making full on educational movies. I really enjoy these videos, and the important info your videos.
Such a fine series of skills of a woodsman. Whether in combat, or a generally harsh environment I believe your approach can save lives. I am 77 and I learned these skills in Boy Scouts, supplemented by my father. In 1936, he was the youngest Eagle Scout in the USA. That status for him was not surpassed until sometime in the 70's. Thank you.

These videos are extremely invaluable with all of the information in them, will definitely look forward to any more
I just moved to Appalachia, so this series has been great to watch and learn from
Can we all appreciate the dedication to cinematography atv the beginning? He really wants to reach the audience how they'll be receptive to. Stay safe people
This is awesome !! Never had an hour go by so fast and felt like 20 minutes..... You are true master at your craft. ❤
thank you!
@@GarandThumb you're welcome 🙏
@@GarandThumbwould really appreciate advice on what to do if dogs are on the loose and close by.. I go out to see wildlife and people just let them run loose round here, would love to get some advice on how to avoid them picking up on where I am if they are coming close through undergrowth and also how do dog handlers manage to go near potentially aggressive dogs but the dog acts submissively when they walk towards them etc.. An ex special police guy I knew could just walk towards them and they'd submit but with me most dogs just get loud and aggressive even when I'm not worried about them.. Any tips re all that would be awesome as it's stressful approaching oncoming people who let their dogs run way ahead of them out of sight of them in the woods etc and I'm never sure how to stop the dog acting territorially, did any guys you knew know good ways to get them to automatically be submitting etc? I'm never sure if I'm best to just not look at them and act like they are not there but no matter what I try they all get territorial if they walk ahead of their owner etc..I think it could help in bad situations for people too, if they have dogs loose in the area around them that folk are trying to evade
@@CastleHassall You've reminded me of a Jocko Podcast where he sat with a Veteran dog handler, SEAL I think but I can't recall now. Some of what he was saying comes down to a dog knows when he meets an alpha. There was a lot more to it than that and he expounds greatly on that so it's not nearly as simple as that. Might be worth a listen if you've got the time. Sorry I don't recall the episode or guests name.
Amazing work, awesome details, well edited and updated information. What else somebody could ask 💪🏻
Everything Grand Thumb uploads is either entertaining, just interesting, or informative. This video is all three so basically perfection 👌
My fiancé just yelled at me for watching this without her, she likes this series and wants to watch it with me tommorow. I will come back tommorow okay 👍
lets goooo
Fan-fucking-tastic! That's a couple that's going places!
@@GarandThumbHey we watched it just now, she really liked the bit with the daisy chain because she does crochet and I liked the bit where you ate a leaf.
With this level of quality Garand Thumb should make a movie! Like seriously it looks that good. This episode was awesome
He probably has made movies during his military service. Classified SERE stuff.
Fantastic content and tons of useful info here. Keep this stuff coming!
Need to make these in purchasable video format! DVD, digital, etc. Great content!
Download the video to your phone or computer
why would he do that when they’re already free
I want "hard copies" also though
Hard copies are better for resiliency. At any time RUclips flips the switch and they’re gone

Love these "becoming deadly" series. Don't suppose you'd consider some 10-15 minute series about using specific tools for survival? Like teaching to use a compass and map together, different tools to create a fire out of both dry and moist😉, tinder. Different tools for purifying water... Would be cool
The problem is that those are most likely hour long videos themselves! There is a ton to cover when it comes to this stuff.
@@220_Swiftespecially navigation.
best way to learn a map and compass imho is finding a local orienteering club. I learned general map and compass shit for land nav in basic training but when i went to my MOS school degrees were tossed out for mils for artillery observation, so land nav for our schooling was in mils and meters. civilian classes will use degrees and meters and most likely not be using MGRS but be using a different Grid system.
There is a ton of such material on YT already, between bushcrafting and ultralight backpacking. David Canterbury and Darwin on the Trail are good places to start for both.
It's crazy how much more the OD kit blends in to the woodland compared to the multicam chest rig
Fantastic video full of the info we've wanted for a long time that many other videos don't cover.
They makes these videos for the fans, knowing they'll be much harder to make and get significantly less views.
I greatly appreciate this, Mike & Team.
the evasion videos have 2.8 and 2.1 million views.....
I watch the Becoming Deadly in the Mountains series with my kids. They’re really into it and always want to go out and practice what they learned on the weekends. Keep ‘em coming!
Amazing video. Can’t wait for more
Thanks for your continued service
Can you put all of these training videos out for download or DVD? Having them all in one place to study would be amazing. Thank you so much for doing these. Did some cold camping with the family a few weeks ago and I told my daughter “no camp fire until you start it yourself”. Took an hour with the ferro rod but the look of accomplishment and excitement coming from an 11 year old was a memory we will never forget.
Love to hear that. I recently tried starting a fire with only friction (a slotted log with a stick) most difficult fire I've ever made but it was so worth it.
@@noblemelton7039 oh man. I’ve tried and failed a few times with that technique but I’m still not giving up on it.
You can download them all directly from RUclips and save them to any format you choose.

Hi, my CO was captured in Korea by the Chinese and spent time in their POW camp until armistice + . He instigated a E & E course for his Paras in the highlands of Scotland where we were dropped in small section teams at the coast and had to make it over the high country to a designated contact point. There was a unit of Scottish Regiment and the Police hunting us. What they didn’t tell us was the length of the exercise and that we would all be caught at the worst possible time when we were all knackered, cold and hungry. The point was to survive the interrogation by the “enemy intelligence”! Early form of water boarding! Of course. I innocently signed a bit of paper giving the details of all equipment taken from me. Big mistake. When I got back to Battalion ten days later I was on a Charge for stupidity in the act of signing a confession indicating that I had used poisson gas and tortured civilians. Never trust anybody, especially the secret squirrels. Live and learn the hard way! Cheers mate. Harera
Good times! 😂
