"High quality H2O", was that a 'The Waterboy' reference?
Hahah, was wondering if I was the only one to catch that.
"GATORADE!"
Was definitely a waterboy reference I think it's an underrated film
Yes sir
Only for the 10 people who saw the movie.
May I Suggest. When catching water from the top of the stream, you can take a handkerchief or some form of cloth to cover the water bottle. Then submerge the bottle slightly under the surface of the water to collect. Holding the cloth material over the opening should help filter the water quite an bit more. I've used that method often and helps tremendously. Thank You for the video.
Thanks for the great tip
Thanks
nettle can be used as a substitute for spinach and if you let it soak in water it will make a good fertilizer for the garden. Nettle collects harmful nitrates. Therefore, nettles for human consumption should not be collected from places that are too succulent, nitrogenous, such as the edges of barns or fertilized farmland. Here's how to make a fertilizer:
Put on gloves to protect against hives
Collect 1kg of fresh nettles or use 200g of dried nettles
Put the nettles in a bucket and pour over 10 l of water
Stir and let stand for 2 weeks
Dilute 1:10 and use in the vegetable garden as a fertilizer
The fertilizer solution may smell unpleasant, but don’t let it bother you!
Loving these "10 tips", also really really enjoying the info on all the various plants ::)
Hey thanks for the heart, it's cool to know you keep track of us in the comments. Much love from New Zealand ::)
Thank you for letting the Tarpon go! I live in St. Augustine FL, our beaches and wetlands are suffering harshly because of humans. Really appreciate you letting it go!
1:59 instead of eating the limpet to gain very little calories use it to catch a crab or lobster to gain more calories.
Limpets are almost no effort to gather though.
You can catch crabs and lobster with even just chunks of greenery from land and facet it to a small rock so it sinks. They aren't picky. I can remember crabbing as a child with my grandfather and we used to just pick grass and tie it to a string and throw it in the water, then when we felt the crab 'tug' at it we would gradually pull the string in little by little where grandpa was waiting with a net.
@@poshpoultry8721 I'm not saying crabs are difficult, my grabdfather and I would use the same trick just using meat that had started to go bad, but, at least in my experience, there are days where yoy are pulling them up faster than you can store them and there are days where you never get a bite. Even in pretty poor conditions limpets are pretty much everywhere and you aren't gonna have to take the chance that something might not bite because you can just use visuak identification.
@@Freakmaster480 I've never used limpets as I live in FL and we don't have those here.
We pick up sand fleas (a small crustacean) and use those if we have to.
@@poshpoultry8721 Ok. It isn't super useful in a survival situation but you can also make concrete with the shells.
10 tips is my favorite because it really affirms the things I know and I get to learn some things I didn't know. Keep them coming
I really enjoyed this vid. I hope you're planning on doing more of these.
‘high qualidy aich two oh’ loving the vids mike 😃
Life with nature always brings us peace. I am also growing my own vegetables, raising fish and raising chickens in the forest. everything is very nice
Really cool! Where do you do that?
Once again this series is amazing!
Finally ive been lost in the woods for days now and I found the video I need to survive
skill issue
Have you tried not being lost?
great video! Especially the bit about filling the water bottle backward to the flow and from the top of the steam. Black plastic will also sweat moisture from grass, but you can't see how much.
I always carry a small magnifying glass in the back pack or camera bag to start a fire,close up attachment lens can also work. Make sure your tinder is DARK coloured and dry to reduce reflection. In the southern hemisphere the sun rises in the north east just note( reverse in the Nthn hemi) just see where the sun is in the early AM and that's basically East. Most rivers flow to the sea,usually past habitation, in a pinch just follow the stream.
I've gotta tell you, I just stumbled on your channel today, and I've been binging the quick tips videos. You have such a soothing voice that I can't help but be at peace watching your videos. The production quality is too notch! Plus the information is amazing and I am learning so much!
Good video. I use the cap of a 1/2 liter water or soda bottle. Place a coin in the cap and use that as a bearing block for the bow drill. Of course you can use some other bottle cap also that fits a coin inside.
Cheers chap really enjoyed these tips and ill be even trying some this weekend thank you chap. I'll pop and see you at the bushcraft show soon, take care and stay safe
There are problems with using a stick shadow in that way to find North. That's about as accurate as moss growing on the north side of trees, and maybe that's all you need to avoid getting turned around and find your way out of a wilderness, but if you really want to know the directions, it's a bit more complicated than that. Depending on the time of day and time of year, the method shown could have you thinking NE or NW is North. At (or near) the equinoxes, the method shown works well all day, but near the solstices, you'd be heading off at an angle in the morning or afternoon, though near local solar noon, it would still aim you fairly accurately.
There is a method that works year-round if you can stay put for several hours, even without a timepiece. Set a straight stick vertically and make marks of its shadow tip for several hours from morning into the afternoon. This will create a curve or line on the ground, with the closest approach to the stick being near local solar noon (and showing approximate North). Measure from the base of the stick to the shorter end of the arc and mark the point on the other, longer side that is that same distance from the stick. A straight line between these two points will run exactly East-West, and North will be at a right angle to the line.
Good job RUclips. I live in the American desert and you give me British people talking about woodland and coastal survival. Keep up the good work TA.
2:55 Easy life in Norway when we never boil or filter the water from streams and rivers due to fairly clean water.
New Zealand as well
@@bena3341 nah a lot of our rivers and lakes are now poluted with nitrogen and bacteria from farming run off. + Giardia is present in many NZ waterways. I would boil it at the very least if you dont have a sawyer or lifestraw
@@frozenthunderbolt1 Not where I live. Central Otago ftw.
Using a battery to light a fire with steel wool or other things (technically shorting the battery) WILL NOT WORK WITH ALL BATTERIES!
As recently seen on another channel, _rechargeable_ lithium batteries commonly have a protection circuit that makes them useless for fire starting . . . unless you puncture the battery and get the lithium to self-ignite.
It was great to meeting you at the Outdoors Festival 👍 wish you were coming to the wilderness gathering but of course there are always things that get in the way. Keep up the mint work Mike 👏
Great to meet you too!
So your name is mike
The stick and shadow one is cool .
Great video... Super video !
Actually easy stuff. But the thing is one must practise it for two reasons.... to get it right and to remember it. Nice video!!!
Thank you Mike for sharing your talents with us. Watch n learn.
Spinach from little nettles is delicious and healthy. use the fresh small leaves and cook them, till the fall apart. easy meal :)
Man I really have to say that your videos are really great. It’s really nice to see that there are at least a few of us like that who enjoy the wilderness. I wonder which bushcraft or survival knife would you recomend the most, becouse a friend lost it. I hope you will record another video, for example 10 in 10. Bye and thanks for your opinion! :)
This was really educational. Thank you
Cool tips!!!
Thanks for the educational videos. 👍
Thanks Mike for a great set of tips. With watch navigation in the Southern hemisphere you need to point the 12pm marker to the sun and find the middle point to the hour hand. And you need to point the 1pm marker towards the sun during our daylight savings time. I assume you'd do something similar to adjust for British summertime?
Love the 10 in 10 for teaching. Scouts love them. Keep up the good work.
Actually, the steel wool acts as a resistor, that’s why it heats up.
If anyone wants a good tutorial on how to prepare nettle fiber, Sally Pointer has good tutorials. That's where I learned!
Much love to TA Outdoors thank you for the vids
Thanks for the tips Mike. Looking forward for your next video.🙏🏻
Great tips. I can tell you put the hours of practice in.
I love this series! Keep it up
Great to meet you and your dad at the outdoors festival. It made the trip worthwhile. Keep up the fantastic work.
Cheers Chris!
one of the best chaneals give all aabo for this
Thanks for this video.
Feels like someone's been watching some Alfieaesthetics vids recently 🤣
Thank you, Mike.
Hello 👋 my outdoors friend, you possess a great of survival wisdom. Thank you for sharing it. Stay safe out there. 🤗
Thank you
Thanks for all of the great tips
awesome. super useful tricks.
Protective map case great idea to carry
Outstanding video! Thank you!
Thanks Mike! 👍😁
Thanks so much for Sharing. Super good information.
Really liked the down stream trick for filling the water bottle! Probably would not have thought of that
❣️ simply GREAT tips ❣️
Great 10 of 10 tips. Nice water collection. 💯❤👍
Amazing video as always. I really love tips that simple and short like this. easy to understand And really usefull information
(Sorry for my english.still learning)
Top work, Mr Pullen!
Good series recommended you to build Celtic roundhouse
He said, “ You see the vapor??? The condensation will not hydrate you, but will definitely fill your time as you dehydrate...” 😝
The uv light through the plastic bag can also help purify water over a long period of time
Thanks Mike,some interesting tips given there.well done.
Very informative, thank you
Love the 10 tips series .love from antartica brother
Excellent series and well presented! Cheers from New Orleans
I agree with you on the nettle fiber about the strongest natural fiber I’ve found, I’ve found that the best time to Harvest the fiber is in the fall or winter when it is dead it’s easy to collect in the morning or on a moist day, it’s a lot stronger than when the plant is green in my experience. The watch technique is not very accurate partly since time is standardized and is not true solar time. I recommend the natural navigator by Tristan Gooley for a more in depth understanding of finding your way using the sun, stars, and many other natural clues. I have used the shell as a bearing on a bow drill with success and you’re right about burning your hand! make sure you have some padding, also a piece of fat wood from pine makes a good bearing block.
I use the solar compass a lot, but I'm curious to know how to navigate using the stars for walking during the winter.
More on that soon
@TA Outdoors That's awesome.
4:30
IIRC, the solar compass show north when we're in the southern hemisphere. ;)
How can be correct the sundial method?? If you try 15 minutes later with the second shadow and a "third" shadow, the north is different! Or not?
What a great video loved it nicely done
Love the videos man , on sundial skill I was originally taught put your left foot on the first stone and right on the second boom , facing north , but I like your method as well , keep them coming
U became quite an expert! Keep it that way! We watching u all around the world. Me personally, watching u from Romania. ;)
Great stuff
Awesome
Mantap
Perfect timing! 😎
Great tips Mike.👍
Parabéns Pelo Canal e Que Deus Abençoe a Todos!!!
Hi Mike. A tip for the bag on trees to get water make sure you know it is not a poisonous plant you want to survive not cause yourself harm.
Waw amazing
Great to see a vid off ya ..top tips 👍👍👌
This was a really good video. Never knew most of this. Thanks! Also a subscriber to TA Fishing, another great channel. How is the pallet wood cabin doing these days?
Good advices
Cool videos dude, enjoyed the content and video style !
I learn from this video
Love the video, also has anyone been subscribed since the A-frame video? I watched ta outdoors grow from a small channel to the largest channel that does outdoor shelters . Hope you all have a nice day.
I live in northern Mississippi and I have found that kudzu makes awesome cordage and it is very durable and when dried and braided can make for a decent rope to tie off for the start of your lean to or just to have some natural light rope.
Best of luck on the scotland trip....hope you lot raise lots more dosh!
This video is very good, I am waiting for the latest video from you, greetings from Indonesian Borneo
Good tips 👍
Nice video Mike 👍👍👍
Great vid, a good way to switch it up a bit. Favorite part was the ode to Bobby Boucher 🤣
Nice
Damn I am needing to survival.... 400 miles from the coast. If only I had a tarpon!
shared
Good video. 👍💪 I just made today my first bow drilled fire. and that was cool. lol
Enjoying video on bedrest
Cool x
The very first tip is the main reason you use a ground sheet under a shelter. It's not to keep the tent from getting holes in it, tho that's one potential advantage. Moisture comes out the ground every night and collects under the rain fly or tarp all night long. That's true even in the desert. Granted, your body expiration contributes to this, but it's not the MAIN source of condensation droplets. Respiration of the earth IS the main contributor. While a ground sheet doesn't stop dew formation, it does redirect condensation away from your tarp peak to the outer edges. The higher the peak of your shelter, the more condensation because of stratas of temperature change. By using a ground sheet of some kind, the main moisture collecting under the fly is your own breath, not breath-plus-dew from Gaia. The further out a ground sheet extends - without going beyond the fly and collecting rain - the better your humidity control inside a shelter. Remember Gaia exhales all night long, and you just half that time. :D
To get the map bag trick to work, use a stick in the ground inserted into one corner so the bag is tilted with one corner lower than the other so dew runs into the bag seam, and down into a camp cup like a funnel. Use the map bag tether string to guy out the plastic so this is possible. Doing it this way on a stick also keeps slugs and other night water-seeking bugs from crawling up into the bag since the bag is suspended above ground by some distance greater than the width of a slug. Let them get their own water instead of drinking yours. To keep water seeking insects out of your cup on the ground, drape it loosely with a shemagh or bandana with center depression, or if lucky enough to have another piece of plastic, drape the cup and puncture a center hole for the water to drip into your cup. Pinching a 'seam' into the tarp also makes a funnel into a cup. Inside seam for condensation, and outside for rain collection.
A useful packing tip is bring a silicone pot holder sheet. It can be used as a pot holder to retrieve hot mess kits from the fire, to hold hot steam in a cup in the morning, keep flies out of your food, a pot lid to keep water from boiling off a canteen, a flexible cutting board, a nonslip surface to hold small items like sunglasses or knife on a rock, grabbing noxious weeds or nettles, sweeping spiders/scorpions out of a shelter, a grip assist on slippery wet handles or canisters or grabbing fish, squishing or relocating bugs, and ... with a center hole puncture ... can keep bugs out of your water collection cup during the night. Tip: Only make a gibbon-moon hole in the 'pot holder' so a small flap remains to semi 'seal' the opening ... maybe 1/4-1/2 inch (.6 cm to 1.3cm). No thru-hole punch is necessary for any of the listed functions. Darker color silicone doesn't show stains as much but harder to find in the grass at night or retrieving it from the bottom of a stream.
A better water collection system of course, is the multi-purpose black trash bag for more surface area collection, same principle as a map bag. It's a rain sheet for a pack, rain poncho, ground sheet, kindling and food collection, mouse deterrent, and - surprisingly - a bear deterrent. Give the black bag an arc shake so it inflates, and move it around in a figure eight in front of the bear. Most bears aren't used to being 'challenged' by an inflated flapping 'creature' like that and tend to move on. I have one with a two point tether on doubled edge (gorilla tape) so it can fly higher and apart from me like a puffy black plastic specter. Most bears don't know what to make of that, so the bear's innate WTF?-factor is on my side. I've never tried it, but it could probably also be used to rescue your dog from circling coyotes.
I'm not trying to beat a dead horse but I did an experiment with ground cloth.
I had a new tent I wanted to test for rain proofing during two nights of downpour. The first night was clear and dry. I just used the ground cloth under the floor of the tent but not under vestibules, and went inside the cabin to sleep. In the morning I went outside and the tent floor was dry except for shaking droplets from the fly when I unzipped the netting. The entire fly was covered in droplets just from ground dew. This means the water under the fly came from the ground not my breath since I was in the house all night. The next night was also clear and dry, and I spread the ground cloth under the vestibules too, and slept in the cabin. In the morning, the fly was damp underneath, but big droplets were mostly along the edges of the fly nearest the ground where the ground cloth ended. So while a ground cloth can't stop humidity condensation, and breathing makes condensation worse, a larger ground cloth significantly reduced droplet size and water on the floor. Two more days in downpour , same experiment, results were the same.
Of course that's just one test, humid summer days, no breath contribution, but from then on I always spread under vestibules too. The black plastic bag combined with ground cloth does the trick. Jus' sayin'.
AlfieAesthetics vibes :)
0:30 next time flip the case inside out so that when you want to quickly store the map, the inside won't be wet !
Good music!!!
nice info 😁👍
