    Quick tip: When starting fires don't take anything off of any tree if you can help it, it is either live wood (hard to light) or contains residual moisture if it is dead. Instead, use wood and tinder from the ground whenever possible (as long as it is dry).

    • @oddhuman
      @oddhuman 6 лет назад +10

      Reagan Branham Absolutely! It's the first thing I said the moment he started rubbing the sticks together!!! Don't cut wood from the trees. Use dead wood from the ground. He could have done it in half the time.

      Respectfully I can understand the sarcasm as there really isn't much of a need for such a skill with modern day tech .....And in honesty your comment is funny by all rights as its not common or normal behavior by standards advocated in todays society . But if you would look past your cynicism you may find a hole new experience that can be very rewarding . Pride often influences behavior and as a result people often choose to over look simplicity or basics .....History has taught mankind that lesion time and time again ......Yet we are motivated by convenience .....So rather than pass asinine judgment I for one would likely look upon this individual with profound curiosity .....evaluating the situation and asking questions ......Perhaps why are you rubbing two sticks together ? Because to reiterate its not considered normal behavior by todays standards but Iam sure after seeing the results most would be impressed with results .....And to be honest who would I be to pass judgment that in truth would be nothing more than stereotypical .

      Not silly if you think about it. A balisong has no use other than looking cool and harming people, it's a shit knife for actually cutting things. It's like those fully automated blades that used to be in old gangster movies, not really good for cutting, just useful for stabbing and intimidation.

    Was just about to mention how careful you have to be with fires in nature, thanks for adding the heads up Mike! It's so dry and warm in A LOT of countries at the moment and a lot of wildfires and forest fires going on, even a small thing as a cigarette butt can start a fire in places where it's very dry.
    In most of Sweden it's forbidden at the moment to even start up a campfire (or using fire somehow in general), let alone trying to learn how to start a fire. Be careful people!

    You should do a braille version of the 2x2x2 cube where you don't even need to see the cube. Use hot glue or something to create some kind of code for each color (maybe something similar to an ordinary 6-sided die) and use only your logic and sense of touch to solve it. I think it would be a good exercise in retraining your brain from picking up on the color orientations of the cube to using only your sense of touch.

      Primitive Technology's youtube channel is a much better source for survival skills. Don't get me wrong, Mike is great at a lot of things and I love his drive to learn new things, but he is by no means a survival man.
      (Tip for Primitive Technology's videos: turn on closed captions because he doesn't actually speak in his videos though he is incredible at teaching survival skills)
