Surviving My Worst Night in Bush | Fireside Chat with Greg Ep. 6
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 апр 2024
- Greg takes you on a journey from when he was a young man. Heading out in the bush with his friend Hardcore Warren. As they head out on a bear hunt they run into some trouble.
Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

thats what i love about greg....he is a real man who makes real mistakes and has no qualms about tellin us about them..good lad
"You don't get sleep in these situations."
That's a real man right there.
I find it incredible how important small details can be when it comes to survival. It's the difference between misery and being alright.
Love these fireside chats. Could listen to Gregs stories for hours on end. Best channel I've ever found on RUclips.
Love you ❤
Thx for the content
Hi from Russia 🇷🇺 though
Your English is so cool I learn it from you ❤
Thx
I will just go ahead and say it , if I was having my worst night in the bush alone I would want Greg with me!
I'll take Chuck Norris.
Why would you wish that on him?
Definitely
Of course you’ll “go ahead and say it” because you know everybody else does on all his other videos for likes lol what losers. Just watch the video and move on or be original at least
He does have a purty mouth 😂
Mr. Ovens, a gem ❤ Love your stories. Here all day for it
Me too !
@@letzrockitrite8469 Me too :)
Whoever is editing deserves a raise... and so do your experiences. Keep livin' man
I love the fireside chats Greg cheers to you and Finn always enjoy your videos and chats have a great weekend Greg and Finn
I’m having toast and coffee listening to your story, realizing this was 9 days ago. I got some catching up to do 😊
I had one bear encounter when I was alone, which I already told you about, but I've had so many rain/downpour camping experiences that all taught me what never to be without in the bush. Lighters (several), large and small tarps (for cover and floor), cordage, bungees and stakes and, yes, a rifle, a knife, some proteins, carbs, coffee in a ziplock, and something to boil water in. My scariest moment was caused by being unprepared in a sustained heavy downpour, and I was terrified as the elements wreaked havoc on body's ability to properly function. This fireside chat hit home and I'm so glad you presented this experience and wisdom. It's so true that experience is the best teacher. Much love to you and Finn.
Nothing better than coming home from a difficult day to another gem of a video. They truly get me through the day, I find your stories and wisdom to speak to me as well as all those who take the time to listen. so truly thank you so much, thank you. :)
We've all done things like not carrying kit that we should have. When things don't go as we want /expect we kick ourselves for not being switched on. These are without doubt the lessons that stay with us .
Ever seen A Sasquatch? Love ya Greg!!!🇨🇦
Waiting for you. My favorite youtuber!!👍💙
Yes
Love your stories Greg. You've lived this where others do it as a hobby. Never change mate.
Greg your amazing - can't believe a network has not picked you up. You got an a great speaking voice and I just love watching you and Finn' and your adventures 🎉
I'd say YT is a pretty good gig for him since makes decent money with donations/monetization and he gets to have 100% creative control.
Cable t.v is nearly obsolete.
Hey Greg the next time you have a breakdown keep flares with you and if you don’t want to cause a fire, use the glow sticks. Your buddy should have put a glow stick with a note on it since you don’t have cell service. You’re lucky you didn’t get mauled. Can’t wait for the next fireside chat. They’re awesome!!!
Greg and Finn, this one's for you. From this
71 years young, woman who still is a lifelong camper and survivor while navigating life below the poverty line. Matter of fact I am looking for land in Tennessee where I can pitch a tent and live year round. Only way today that we poor, elderly folks can get by, and it seems that even younger people are beginning to embrace this notion. Anyhow, I was 45 I took my 15 yr old son to Tennessee to get his friend for the summer, and being poor we decided to camp since we had all the gear. Upon arriving at Rock Island State park, it was somewhat desolate and remote, yet wickedly beautiful. We set up camp and picked up his friend and came back to our campsite, spending hours hiking, swimming and relaxing. I cooked dinner, and followed protocol by putting all food away in my jeep, once finished. Our tent was fairly close to the picnic table where I had stored clean pots and pans and camping equipment, and we went to bed fairly early. During the night I heard a horrible commotion and woke up the boys and told them to remain silent, grabbed my baseball bat and light. Shining the light onto the picnic table I saw eyes boldly glaring at me, ears curled at the tips, smallish body and clearly not in the mood to leave. It began growling and hissing, and I felt my pulse racing. I had never seen a bobcat before but I believed I was looking at one now . Holding the bat like a shield and keeping the boys behind me, we inched toward the jeep and upon reaching it I practically threw the kids in, then jumped in the front. I knew once the bobcat had satisfied his curiosity that he would leave, which he did. Once daylight broke I retrieved my keys and drove up to the ranger station where upon I explained to him what happened. He told me it was more than likely a bobcat and that what I did was the correct thing to do. I knew in my heart it meant us no harm and I feel fortunate to have this encounter as one of my memories. I have had several other encounters with wildlife including black bears on some of my camping excursions and safety is paramount in encountering wildlife. But I also believe that I, over the years, have been blessed by all I have experienced in 71 years of living. Greg, you are brave and gifted with many talents, and we all appreciate you and your endeavors. Stay safe, curious, adventurous, and keep on keeping it real. Peace, from Albany, Georgia, USA.
Such a nice conversation, Greg so chill that he made my anxiety go away....
He has a soothing voice
I love fireside chats❤!!! Hi from Costa Rica!!! Pura vida ❤
I just LOVE the fireside chats!!! Really looking forward to camping hacks and whatever you got for fyi. Thank you so much!
Love the fireside chats. Can't wait for the next one. Sounds intriguing! One of the things that I love about this channel that you don't see any where else is that Greg is the first one to admit to not always getting it right. And that's authentic. That's what real people do. Some survival guys come across as never making a wrong decision about anything. Greg's done it the hard way, got the scars to prove it but still takes the time to share his knowledge through his videos and stories. And we love him all the more for it!
Woo hoo tonight will he a good night. Going to have some pizza and watch Greg 😊
I love the fireside chats
Great chat. I had the Bronco figured wrong. I had one that quit on me when I hit a pot hole in the woods. After an hour or so trying to diagnose I pulled out the book to check relay and fuse locations and just happened upon the information about the emergency fuel cutt-off under the dash. Check it and sure enough the jolt had tripped it. Great story about bad times. It always pays to have a small daypack in the truck to grab on any hike, short or long. I would have been freaked out.
Love fireside chats! Capitalize on your many
strengths, Gregg!
Great story Greg. Stay safe you two.
Hey that’s a Ford ranger!! Best truck ever
Incredible story.
Love the fireside chats - absolutely awesome.
I love watching your videos because it's always a disaster
Love your stories. Fireside chat is a cool series 👍💚
Your fireside chats are so very entertaining! There is a lesson in each one of them! And, I am so sorry Greg, because it really isn't funny that you got badly burned. But when you said that you accidentally "slow cooked" yourself, I busted out laughing!! Your wording is so epic!! I'm really looking forward to your Patagonia fireside chat stories! Massive respect from the 416 area!! ✌🏾
Great story! Glad you made it through 💫❤️💫
Just when I thought I had an idea how HARDCORE Greg is, he drops this story. 🤘
Also, your dinner was made in my state! Enjoy the brats!
I love your stories, Greg, and all your videos, Thanks!
It also was so bad we barely had any sunny days, it was just smoke in Vancouver 🇨🇦 last year. I was born and raised in Creston BC all we did was fish, hunt and camping. I’m miss it so much but my family is in Van, if it wasn’t for them I’d be back in the country. I mean you can camp out here but not the same. Even just star gazing you only see 3-4, in Creston the whole sky was covered, miss being there.😀🧡👉🏼🇨🇦
Nice spooky camp fire story Greg 👍👍. Lots ot hug's to you & Finn 😊 from Mission B.C 🇨🇦
I would love to hear about strange sounds and experiences from you in the bush

Love your fireside chats, the stories are great. I agree with you, Grizzly bears are so majestic, what an awesome impressive creature they are.
We had been having lots of fires here in Nova Scotia last year too, and I hope both coasts are forest fire free this year. It was so devastating for so many.
Stay safe! I love your videos.
Great alone in the woods story, Greg! I Love this channel.
Much appreciated Glen , greetings from the UK .
Much love Greg 🤘 appreciate you
Thank you. Right on.
I totally enjoy all the content you do brother!! I have learned so much that I have done my own adventures where I live. Now I just need a great dog like Finn and I will be ready for anything lol. You two make a great team and love watching your adventures!!! Keep up the great work brother and Mr Finn. Respect 👊🏻 from NY
I'm worried about fire season too,man. I'm in NW Montana, and we barely had any snow at all this winter. It's already been 75 degrees here a few days ago. I think we're all going to get hammered with fires.
The thumbnail goes HARD.
You always give me a good chuckle with the stories😅
Worked in that area last summer on a TC Energy pipeline. Up the Morrissey and McAvoy. Rough country, saw lots of blacks and one big grizzly.
Absolutely love you ❤ lm learning so much thank you have a wonderful day my Canadian friend lm in a little town outside ottawa, Canada 🇨🇦
Love the story. I looked around your little camp and thought I saw a Bud in the cup holder of the chair? Hope so. Also I DIDN'T SEE ANY RIFLE?? Love the content bro 👍👍👍
No judgement if you drink, but still, why would you "hope" someone else would poison themselves?
I really like the fireside chats! Love your channel!
I love the fireside chat Greg!
Awesome story!
Greg you reminded me so much of my step dad, he was from Montana.
Can't wait for your other chats
