@@KatherineUribe-1 to survive 24hrs, you need absolutely nothing. Anyone could do it. The point of that kind of challenge is to put your survival knowledge to practice. In one case we saw a guy making essential survival stuff while the other guy went full homeless mode. Although they both survived, you cannot judge their success solely by that fact. At the very least, you must admit one was thriving while the other one struggled a lot and was completely lost on what to do. The successful guy also had a dog, he could have rationed it out and stay there for 2 weeks at least
Jager is one fantasitic dog. Almost unfair to have his help on the challenge. After all he fixed your mistakes with the bedding and probably did security watch the whole time so you were safer than Julius;)
Interesting to see Julius make use of modern materials and stuff but got to hand it to Dylan for the win. He got all 5 C's of survival in his shopping. He didn't have to walk as far, set up with natural cover in an area that had plenty of natural materials, and built a simple and practical shelter that was very time and energy efficient. Would love to see a repeat of this with no time limit on the shopping and in a different location to see how you've progressed and what you could do with more prep time!
The electric fire starter shape you made was too wide. Gum wrappers are by far the easiest to use for this method, but any foil with paper or tinder you can place on it to burn should work. The science behind it is basically you are forcing the current through a fairly small choke point. Where it's wide enough, the heat generated is minimal and dispersed, but in the center of the hour glass shape, there is more current being forced through which causes more heat. The thinner the center of that shape is, the hotter it gets, but if it's too thin, it will simply burn away too fast to catch fire. All you needed to do was to slowly carve out the center of the hourglass shaped foil until it worked. You can feel it getting warm when you are getting close to thin enough.
I just about died laughing at 15:23 when Julius woke up in all of that trash with newspaper socks!!!! I showed it to all of my family. I love your practical demonstrations even though you have to kind of sneek around the countryside sometimes. Please do an urban survival or hobo survival, I loved it!
Love the way each of you did things so differently, and both gave good lessons. Awesome scenery, too, and the dog is gorgeous! Our dog does to her pillow bed what he was doing to the moss, lol!
If you had no time limit, or a 20 minute limit to shop, I would bet that your choice of items would have been far better. At the very minimum, you would have obtained the 5 C's needed to survive. #1 = Cutting Device. A good knife is a must. #2 = Combustion Device. Matches, Lighter, Fero Rod and Steel, as you found out it's vital to have one. #3 = Cordage. For obvious reasons. #4 = Container. To boil water and store water. #5 = Cover. For your shelter or for your bed. Can be plastic bin bags, or it could be a blanket. Julius failed to get 3 of the 5! He needs to step up his game.
They both set out to get those 5 things, Julius just got sidetracked with the coffee and forgot to get a lighter and he couldn't find a cord. Oh and didn't think about a container. Hahaha.
guys I can really appreciate how you failed and were not afraid to show it, this adds to the authenticity of your experience. i was really feeling your pain oh and I really hate midgies and mosquitoes with a passion. Thank you
I like that this went so different for you guys. Glad you picked the flashlight too. Instead of watching two of the same there was something new :) loved it, it made great content!
It gets darn near perfect reviews!! I was expecting something a lot more expensive for that kind of zoom!! Tell Julius to stop being a hater and get him one =D
Ok so a word of warning for everyone doing what Julius called “urban survival” never grab anything especialy a matras with your bare hands. Dirty needles could be in those by people who either forgot them or who want Some sort of revenge for getting evicted. Either way great vid as always!
I know it was in Ireland that's why I said it, Ireland has one of the greatest increases in HIV contaminated people due to needles since 2012. These numbers almost tripled due to a high influx of synthetic heroine in Ireland the last years. Sorry for being a dick I just had to study this for clinical psychology in Uni, not that I actualy think a lot of the subscribers would actually get into these situations :) Vond het wel eens leuk dat het iets anders was dan het wildkamperen, mooi getoond hoe het niet altijd loopt hoe je het plant ;)
Isn't drinking from a standing pool that a bird might have been in a bit dangerous? Also digging around an old house like that, you got to be careful of mold man. I am sure what he needed to light a fire was in there, I can sympathies with his situation for sure, that place looked like a bomb had hit it.
true stuff, but shur... cant wrap yourself in bubblewrap either and live in a box... With all Outdoor activities you are going to get exposed by stuff! and the more you are out, the better your judgement gets on what is really bad/ also you know how to prevent getting super messy/ plus you develop antibodies for nasty bits! :) Dont be afraid! ;) Cheers. Dylan
As this is an old video not sure if anyone reads this, but I tried the battery-tinfoil combo and it worked. However it wasn’t so easy as it looks, even at home in perfect circumstances, so here are my 2 cents. First is that it’s better to do the hourglass shape from 2 pieces in a way that you twist them together at the narrow ends (like you twist together 2 wire ends). This will give the thinnest part some strength, while it’s still thin enough to heat up. Second is that once you have your hourglass tinfoil you wrap some combustible material around the thin part, because if you just push it against something you’ll have some burn marks, but not fire. Third is that you push the 2 ends of the tinfoil to the battery terminals on an area as big as possible, otherwise the thinnest part will be the contact between the tinfoil and the terminal and it will burn your finger. So Julius is definitely right: practice makes perfect and this one needs some.
Ireland is tough environment for bushcraft/survival, because of the scarce resources, strong winds and pouring rain........ But that's why I love living here, it was awesome to see you travel to Ireland, keep up the great videos
That's awesome that you show the failures as well as the successes. I wondered if the gum paper and battery actually worked, never tried it, not sure I even want to. Good job boys!
aw yes, I only watched the first part yesterday (couldnt watch it earlier since I was on vacation) and was dying for the next part, and here it already is!
It's good to see that you (pro's) still need practice too. I mean i'm not happy that the fire didn't work with the battery but it's informative. Good job!!
Great pair of videos guys! I like the way Julius went all 'Bear Grylls'... and stayed in a hotel. "No, I can't light a fire because I bought 2 knives instead of a lighter." I'd be interested to know if the store sold quilts or even sleeping bags for a tenner, who needs fire really, if you've got enough insulation?
The ever popular Fjallraven barents pro trousers... very expensive to be rolling in the mud with... he has his for a couple of years now but there are definitely signs of wear on them...
Many lessons learned on this trip. As long as you don't repeat the same mistakes you will survive. Very entertaining series. Thanks again for all your efforts.
Uhh I am early :D Nice Video as always. Really enjoyed it but Julius needs to be the one having a good time more often :D Oh and maybe you could do a video where you both watch each others footage and react to it. I think that would be interesting.
Note on the battery fire lighting method. A bit of knowledge on materials science is needed in order to understand the physics behind what's going on... 1) D, C, AA or AAA batteries are identical in output - the only difference being the longevity of them. D lasts the longest, AAA lasts the least. 2) When a current passes through a metal (Aluminium [Al] in this case), there is resistance. 3) How freely the electrons are able to move is determined by the resistance. 4) There are 2 -basic- resistance variables - the material properties and the geometric properties, but we focus on Al. 5) The more material a current can pass through (thicker/wider wire), the lower the resistance and temperature will be - the slimmer/narrower wire will generate more heat. 6) Conclusion: At its narrowest point, the foil just wasn't narrow enough. 7) Before typing this (had to be sure), I succeeded in burning a piece of cigarette foil in two with a single AAA battery, but no flame, only a short lived spark. 8) So you need something very flammable like charcloth, birch bark scrapings, thistle or cotton wool to create an ember. Loved the video btw!❤
I realy like these two films! That you can see you both on the same time. Julius you are so authentic and Dylan so relaxed. I have laughed so much, really funny …. how different approuch you both have. I am happy to know you :)
Where is this? It looks amazing! I'm guessing Northern Ireland maybe? I stayed in Donegal for a week which looks much like this, awesome place to visit. Much more sightly than Australia
I didn't realize I could throw a challenge out,so here is one my bro and I did...you can adjust to suit you. You both have to agree on a far distance to travel by bicycle....it has to hurt and not be easy,so that it sucks as soon as it begins.(our distance was long and painful and mostly hills) When you get to the destination,you lock up the bikes and hike in. For the first night,you can only use what is in your pockets to survive in the woods. For the second night,you can use what is in your pack. After the second night, bike home......the first person to complain LOSES. Nobody will be allowed to complain about anything from start to finish. Remember that for the first night,you will need calories,and only have pockets. You will be tired and not thinking well and it might be as much of a disaster as ours was and as much fun. haha As the loser,I had to pay for a Sushi dinner at a nice place and it took a week for me to get caught complaining just for the record. LOL I love this channel and great job guys,hitting the sub button.
I absolutely loved these videos! I really appreciate any and every failure as it is life's best teacher. You both are great! You earned my sub! Thank you!
In all fairness to you both, in the USA we have stores were you can purchase everything you did, all for $1 for each item, including cans of soup. You would leave the store with everything you need. I respect your tenacity to do this challenge with the obstacles you had. As to the battery starting fire: the outdoors men in Texas, USA- use a 9 volt battery and steel wool. Works every time, providing the battery has a charge.
The gum rapper thing works. I’ve gotten it to work but it’s possible in your country they may be made with a wax clotting making them not conductive ??? When your at your house try. A 5gum rapper it was the one that worked for me
Could have tried to break the flashlight bulb carefully, keeping the filament intact. Turn the flashlight on with the broken bulb in it and burn the filament on dry tinder.
There aren't many true wildernesses left, in an apocalypse survival situation an old dirty shed beats a bin bag shelter, even if they had more fun. Really enjoyed this video series. Subscribed
Hey, if you want to try a variant on this challenge, take $10-20 and head to IKEA. I say $10-20 because I personally think the challenge would be more fun around the upper end of that, but depends on how hard you want to make it and how long you want to stay out in the wild? Also you'll probably need a little longer in the store, because those stores tend to be HUGE. Or, seeing as there's a global pandemic on, maybe just order online and pick up and start with just both sitting down and showing what you got? To me, the fun of it is in seeing whether the strategies you consider at home/in store will actually pan out for you, plus the money limit, rather than the time limit in the store. :-) There's a LOT of different strategies you could go for there - for example, those well-known huge blue IKEA bags made out of tarp cloth - could definitely see some potential there! Lots of potentially useful kitchen gear, textile/sewing, storage, tools, and some food items, too. Not a LOT of food stuff, though, nor a lot of fire starting gear. That's part of the challenge, I guess. This message not paid for by IKEA, just always been fascinated with their stores since I was a little kid. Also, last time I went was the same day I watched this video, and it just struck me as I wandered through that it would be a lot of fun to see you guys do this challenge but with IKEA. Especially since Julius kind of gave up on this one. So, yeah, if you want to prove that you really CAN do it, here's a chance. :-)
Just discovered you guys and instantly subbed, which is something I don't usually do, but your personalities just immediately made me love the content keep up the good work. :D
Hey julius! All this search for fire made me wonder: can you try to survive without fire? Maybe a fireless survival video would be very cool. Please consider!
Don't like to use disposable items, generally. However, I always carry a disposable lighter while camping, and usually a ferro-rod and magnesium fire-starter too
Yeah, i was thinking last video that it was gum foil you were supposed to use because it's super thin like a fuse. Oh yeah, and wet the batteries and foil with your saliva or something. Just damp though
The trick to the battery lighter is the tin foil strips are thin enough to carry a current easily. Learned that in jail. Made a jailhouse match from it. Lmao.
Greetings from the US gentlemen! Love these videos so far. I know what I would do in my area and love seeing the small differences between here and there. Keep up the great work. Oh and what a fantastic companion Jager makes. What a very handsome and wonderfully well trained dog he is. Give him a little scratch behind the ears for me.
I honestly think those batteries didn't have enough amps to start a flame with the foil. They obviously have enough for the flashlight as leds dont pull lots of current. Thing is you never know how long those batteries were lying on the shelf. Nice video still.
I've heard of the battery and gum wrapper trick, but the way I heard it, and it's supposed to be done with a 9 volt. A d through AAA carries only one and a half volts. This could be the whole problem. When in the shack check the smoke alarm for the 9 volt and under the kitchen sink for some steel wool. You get those two together and its on!
I like how one went bushcrafting while the other one just became a homeless person.
JoeSchmoe 123 lol

thanks alot:)
You have to line the batters up end to end and stick your foil to both ends steel wools works better
Did you guys visit ireland for this challenge or do you live here. was the challenge in Co. Clare?
Dylan is living there. This was in the burren area;)
Was the blue rope in the abandoned house a noose
Great video lads. What part of Ireland were you in? Looks like Co. Clare?
Think it was! the edge of the burren, next to the coast:)
Smooth Gefixt great location. Not a lot of natural resources around there so fairplay for roughing it.
what kind of outdoor trousers was julius wearing looking for a new pair and thought those looked good ??

Hey, if you want to try a variant on this challenge, take $10-20 and head to IKEA. I say $10-20 because I personally think the challenge would be more fun around the upper end of that, but depends on how hard you want to make it and how long you want to stay out in the wild? Also you'll probably need a little longer in the store, because those stores tend to be HUGE. Or, seeing as there's a global pandemic on, maybe just order online and pick up and start with just both sitting down and showing what you got? To me, the fun of it is in seeing whether the strategies you consider at home/in store will actually pan out for you, plus the money limit, rather than the time limit in the store. :-)
There's a LOT of different strategies you could go for there - for example, those well-known huge blue IKEA bags made out of tarp cloth - could definitely see some potential there! Lots of potentially useful kitchen gear, textile/sewing, storage, tools, and some food items, too. Not a LOT of food stuff, though, nor a lot of fire starting gear. That's part of the challenge, I guess.
This message not paid for by IKEA, just always been fascinated with their stores since I was a little kid. Also, last time I went was the same day I watched this video, and it just struck me as I wandered through that it would be a lot of fun to see you guys do this challenge but with IKEA. Especially since Julius kind of gave up on this one. So, yeah, if you want to prove that you really CAN do it, here's a chance. :-)
17:06 nice slipknot from the ceiling there... Home of someone who commited suicide maybe? haha scary!
I would not sleep there hell no scary 😂
haha yeah! Same here :D
lol!
Oh shit, good eye
damn :/ that looks real
For the gum wrapper, you HAVE to carefully take off the paper off and use the naked foil. Thats the only way itll work.
Don't think you have to take the paper off, it's the paper that ignites
Just discovered you guys and instantly subbed, which is something I don't usually do, but your personalities just immediately made me love the content keep up the good work. :D
No shellfish?
Hey julius! All this search for fire made me wonder: can you try to survive without fire? Maybe a fireless survival video would be very cool. Please consider!
nice one:)
Don't like to use disposable items, generally. However, I always carry a disposable lighter while camping, and usually a ferro-rod and magnesium fire-starter too
Did you find out why the battery didn't work? If so, maybe you could add it into your post?
Yeah, i was thinking last video that it was gum foil you were supposed to use because it's super thin like a fuse.
Oh yeah, and wet the batteries and foil with your saliva or something. Just damp though
The trick to the battery lighter is the tin foil strips are thin enough to carry a current easily. Learned that in jail. Made a jailhouse match from it. Lmao.
Greetings from the US gentlemen! Love these videos so far. I know what I would do in my area and love seeing the small differences between here and there. Keep up the great work. Oh and what a fantastic companion Jager makes. What a very handsome and wonderfully well trained dog he is. Give him a little scratch behind the ears for me.
I honestly think those batteries didn't have enough amps to start a flame with the foil. They obviously have enough for the flashlight as leds dont pull lots of current. Thing is you never know how long those batteries were lying on the shelf. Nice video still.
About starting fire with batteries, you need enough voltage and current passing through foil. 9v bats would do it easier.
where his this place so beautiful could live there without problem ?
the Burren area in Ireland
I've heard of the battery and gum wrapper trick, but the way I heard it, and it's supposed to be done with a 9 volt. A d through AAA carries only one and a half volts.
This could be the whole problem.
When in the shack check the smoke alarm for the 9 volt and under the kitchen sink for some steel wool. You get those two together and its on!
