Of course, but with this method, you can have something to keep a visual track of sun position instead of looking directly at it and keep track of it mentally. You can say that he could use the horizon for reference but keeping track of 3 points (stick, 1st stone, 2nd stone) is much easier.

@@rayan5150 Simple, if it was dark within the last 6-8 hours then it’s morning therefore the sun is in the east. If it wasn’t then it’s evening and the sun is in the west.
@@ddeerr0708 Depending on time of day it can be kinda difficult to judge where the sun is in the sky. Plus, staring at the sun is hard on your eyes. (Fun fact, eye color can make it easier or harder to stare at the sun without being blinded.)
@@nobbeadjc1512 I feel like you would have your phone and would use that if you had an alarm. Just to remind you most alarms are bigger than phones. And if your battery dies, you were either preparing for that and brought a charger or didn't prepare for that so you didn't even bring an alarm.
Look for moss on trees. Moss faces north. If no moss. Use moon as sun’s direction (direction the moon sets), that’s west. No moon? Use one of the stairs. Cloudy? Watch the movement of the clouds. Usually they go west to east. Direction of clouds depends on location and weather. But usually they move west to east.
The shadow moves in an arc over the course of the day. Your "East-West" line is going to be tangent to that arc at whatever random time of day you try this, so you'll get wildly different results.
Really what you need to do is draw a circle around the stick that's the shadow's length, wait for the shadow to be back on the circle, and _then_ bisect the line between those two points
No, it doesn't really move in an arc. In an idealized world the tip of the shadow moves in a completely straight line, a line which vanishes to infinite at night. The one thing that techinically messes with this is that the tilt sun relative to the earth changes through the year, but in the span of half an hour that should be impossible to notice.
You can get more accurate using an analog watch. 1. Use the same technique of planting the stick in the ground and observing the shadow. 2. Lay the watch on the ground, on a flat surface, over the sticks shadow, and orient it so that the hour hand is pointing directly at the stick. 3. Notice the position of the hour hand and the 12 o clock, and find the center of these two (i.e., if the hour hand is at 4, the center will be 2, if it's at 5, the center will be halfway between 2 and 3.) 4. This center point will be facing true south, you can then use the other numbers to determine other directions (i.e. if you determine that 2 is south, 5 will be west, 8 will be north, and 11 will be east.) Note: you can also do this by simply pointing the hour hand at the sun, but by using the stick, you get a more accurate direction.
You don't need to take the watch off. I use this all the time. Point 12 o'clock at the sun and north is halfway between the hour and 12. No need to overcomplicate.
If you already have a watch to measure time, and if it's an analog one, it's much easier: Keep the watch horizontally and turn it so that the short hand is pointing to the sun. South is roughly half way between 12 o'clock and the short hand. (Or half way between 1 and short hand in summer time zone. In general, accuracy depends on how far east or west you are within a specific time zone.)
@@JoriDiculous First off 12 am is midnight. Second anywhere equatorial or even between the two tropics the Sun is pretty much overhead at midday and in the Southern hemisphere especially noticable below the tropics the Sun is due north at midday
Polaris (North Star) is really easy to find if you know how Ursa Minor looks, it doesn't take much practice to do so but it might be hard to see in some light-polluted places like major cities
Dad taught us this in the 1950s, which saved my bacon more than once in Florida ! We lived so far back in the woods, it took 7 years of living without running water, plumbing, phone, etc, just to see electric & phone lines. I needed it every time I ventured into new woods. Most of it was planted in slash pine: if you've seen 1 you've seen them all! Overcast days I stayed home & sewed.
A gal I know was raised in Florida. Her parents grew up, lived there and raised her and her sister without AC from the 1950's through the 90's. My family is from the hills of KY. They didn't have running water or indoor plumbing until the 1970's. Hauling water from the creek to the house was a hard JOB. When they got a well dug, it seemed like a luxury!
I grew up in a little town called Lake City. It was back in the 70s I realized that life was like a funky disco ball, spinning and twirling with unpredictable moves. The town itself was a quirky mix of characters, like a circus without the big top. We had the town drunk, Old Joe, who stumbled his way through the streets, leaving a trail of laughter and empty bottles in his wake. And then there was Miss Hattie, the gossip queen, who knew everyone's business before they even knew it themselves. She was like a walking tabloid, always ready to spill the tea. I remember one summer, when the heat was so intense you could fry an egg on the sidewalk. We would gather at the town swimming hole, a murky pond with more algae than water. But hey, it was our oasis, our escape from the scorching sun. We would dive in, our bodies enveloped by the coolness, and for a moment, all our worries would melt away. We were free spirits, splashing and laughing, creating memories that would last a lifetime. The passage of time has a way of distorting memories, blurring the lines between fact and fiction. Lake City, once a vibrant tapestry of characters and stories, now exists as a hazy recollection in my mind.
And then there’s those who get west and east backwards and head the opposite direction, or those who try this at night by flashlight only to discover they’re hopelessly lost
north is always north, no matter how far south you go. i'd guess that this is technique perhaps more accurate than a compass as it uses the sun instead of a magnet. this should result in finding true north.
“Back when I joked the corps we didn’t have these fancy tanks, we had two sticks and a rock for our whole platoon! and we had to share the rock” “Stay with the master chief, he’ll know what to do.”
Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. It the sun is past midday, the stick's shadow will point east (sun is in the west pointing at stick. If the shadow gets shorter, it's before midday, if the shadow gets longer, it's after middle If you remember that west on a compass is always on the left of north and east is always on the right, then you can figure out the middle is north and the opposite is south.
@@unacceptablefringemajority251thats why you use your brain that has eyes pretty much connected to it to look at where the sun is CLEARLY rising or setting
@@Ifyoutalktomeurnotstraight Minor issue with that, the Sun rises in the East but not always directly East and it set in the West, but not always directly West. The further North you are on the globe, the further South the sun will set and that also changes throughout the year, moving further North in the Summer and South in the Winter. (Northern Hemisphere. Flip this if you're in the Southern Hemisphere) So the Sun is NOT always a good indicator of where East and West is if you need more specific directions. This also ignores that you may not know what time of day it is, though I'd imagine you typically would, but let's say you just got out of a cave and don't know if it's early morning or late in the evening, yeah? I mean, you'd basically have to wait that amount of time, anyways to know if the Sun was going up or down and the compass trick in this video will still work better than trying to work out where the Sun is and assuming that MUST be East or West depending on if it's going up or down. Lots of words to say: That gives you a very general, somewhat inaccurate picture of cardinal directions, but the compass trick in the video gives you a more accurate one.
You can also use a feather or small stick as a compass.. you rub the feather or twig on your head to give it a static charge then place it in water and it should point to north..
if you know what hemisphere you are you can also tell where north and south is by which direction of the sky its tilted. the sun leans toward the equator. if you know the angles right you can also generally tell how far from the equator you are. the sun is only directly above the equator, or a few inches off.@@JoshuaGraves113
You can also do it with a leaf a little paper clip or some kind of little pin and put it in water. Look it up. Can also start a fire with a ziplock bag and some water using it like a magnifying glass. There's all kinds of crazy stuff you would never would have thought of that they do in survival and bushcraft.
In the Boy Scouts I learned a similar direction finding technique which they called shadowless stick. You point the stick toward the sun; as the sun moves it creates a line running east-west.
So you point the stick facing you and the sun, horizontally? Thats actually super cool!.. How long did you have to stand like Hitler for, while holding a stick? 🤣

You can get more accurate using an analog watch.
1. Use the same technique of planting the stick in the ground and observing the shadow.
2. Lay the watch on the ground, on a flat surface, over the sticks shadow, and orient it so that the hour hand is pointing directly at the stick.
3. Notice the position of the hour hand and the 12 o clock, and find the center of these two (i.e., if the hour hand is at 4, the center will be 2, if it's at 5, the center will be halfway between 2 and 3.)
4. This center point will be facing true south, you can then use the other numbers to determine other directions (i.e. if you determine that 2 is south, 5 will be west, 8 will be north, and 11 will be east.)
Note: you can also do this by simply pointing the hour hand at the sun, but by using the stick, you get a more accurate direction.
Note that this depends on your hemisphere. If you are in the Southern Hemisphere, the directions will be reversed.
You don't need to take the watch off. I use this all the time. Point 12 o'clock at the sun and north is halfway between the hour and 12. No need to overcomplicate.

If you already have a watch to measure time, and if it's an analog one, it's much easier: Keep the watch horizontally and turn it so that the short hand is pointing to the sun.

When you didn't mention the difference of southern and northen hemisphere, someone would get lost
north is always north, no matter how far south you go. i'd guess that this is technique perhaps more accurate than a compass as it uses the sun instead of a magnet. this should result in finding true north.
@@alaskaobrienhuh??? Wouldn't the shadow be on the opposite???
Instructions unclear: We don't have the sun on my hemsiphere of the earth
@@alaskaobrien it's not about where is north but how he find the north. you do realise earth is round right?
“Back when I joked the corps we didn’t have these fancy tanks, we had two sticks and a rock for our whole platoon! and we had to share the rock”
“Stay with the master chief, he’ll know what to do.”
In those 30 minutes you might run to the nearest store and get a compass
Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. It the sun is past midday, the stick's shadow will point east (sun is in the west pointing at stick. If the shadow gets shorter, it's before midday, if the shadow gets longer, it's after middle If you remember that west on a compass is always on the left of north and east is always on the right, then you can figure out the middle is north and the opposite is south.
unless you are not on the equator or if your stick isn't straight or straight in the ground...
@@unacceptablefringemajority251thats why you use your brain that has eyes pretty much connected to it to look at where the sun is CLEARLY rising or setting
i dont think that was English, can you say it in English?
@@khgear7160 Complex sentences aren't for everyone.
@@Ifyoutalktomeurnotstraight Minor issue with that, the Sun rises in the East but not always directly East and it set in the West, but not always directly West. The further North you are on the globe, the further South the sun will set and that also changes throughout the year, moving further North in the Summer and South in the Winter. (Northern Hemisphere. Flip this if you're in the Southern Hemisphere) So the Sun is NOT always a good indicator of where East and West is if you need more specific directions.
This also ignores that you may not know what time of day it is, though I'd imagine you typically would, but let's say you just got out of a cave and don't know if it's early morning or late in the evening, yeah? I mean, you'd basically have to wait that amount of time, anyways to know if the Sun was going up or down and the compass trick in this video will still work better than trying to work out where the Sun is and assuming that MUST be East or West depending on if it's going up or down.
Lots of words to say: That gives you a very general, somewhat inaccurate picture of cardinal directions, but the compass trick in the video gives you a more accurate one.

Or use the sun ... don't need the stick and rock
@@Directed2212so?
Bro what’s on your mind a pen-
You can also use a feather or small stick as a compass.. you rub the feather or twig on your head to give it a static charge then place it in water and it should point to north..
i deadass thought you said "you can also use a father" 💀
Or just look at the sun. Rises in the east, sets in the west. Go from there.
if you know what hemisphere you are you can also tell where north and south is by which direction of the sky its tilted. the sun leans toward the equator. if you know the angles right you can also generally tell how far from the equator you are. the sun is only directly above the equator, or a few inches off.@@JoshuaGraves113
how do you know which side is north or south
@brandonescalante6374 because west is always to your right
You can also do it with a leaf a little paper clip or some kind of little pin and put it in water. Look it up. Can also start a fire with a ziplock bag and some water using it like a magnifying glass. There's all kinds of crazy stuff you would never would have thought of that they do in survival and bushcraft.
Zoro taking notes so he will not finally be lost
In the Boy Scouts I learned a similar direction finding technique which they called shadowless stick. You point the stick toward the sun; as the sun moves it creates a line running east-west.
I put a bunch of shadowless sticks in the zig zag pattern I am accidentally walking in.
So you point the stick facing you and the sun, horizontally? Thats actually super cool!.. How long did you have to stand like Hitler for, while holding a stick? 🤣
@@sins0P you'd stick it in the ground
@@moonmountain_ we are not talking about the same method used in the video anymore
@@sins0P and i'm not. i'm saying that you'd stick the stick in the ground for the shadowless stick method too.
