Debris Hut Survival Shelter

- Learn how to build the warmest and most efficient survival shelter in the world: the Debris Hut. This survival shelter will work in any season, anywhere in the world where you can find enough insulating materials. It can also be made with no tools, and does not need fire or hot rocks for heating. You heat the inside with your own body heat only.
I am not kidding when I say if you put enough debris on the shelter, you will be sweating inside it while temperatures are well below freezing outside. The Debris Hut survival shelter is also water proof. You can pour a 5 gallon bucket of water over the top and not a single drop of water gets through.
Even in the summer months, this survival shelter keeps the wind and rain away, and the bugs at bay. All of these reasons are why this is the number 1 shelter to know.
I am very specific with my instruction here, and I explain many specifics that are important to know and may make the difference between life and death. I have never seen another video showing the amount of detail that I am showing you here. This just may save your life or the life of someone you know someday.

Note: This debris hut stood for almost 2 years- as a testament to its durability.

really enjoyed watching, good build without the need for any tools. like your philosophy to interpret what creatures do to survive
Thank you!
This shelter would be good if you need to hide. It just blends into the landscape.
You reminded me of a scene from "A Masque of the Red Death," where the peasants beg mercy of the prince, saying that they have nothing to eat, and he tells them to "gather the nuts and berries as squirrels are wont to do", and they complain that they will die of cold from the coming winter and he tells then to "build nests and burrows, as the birds and foxes are wont to do." Cruel comments, but containing sage advice. Nature contains all we need.
I love that!
Gotta say this is one of the best shelter making videos I’ve seen. I Love the simplicity and effectiveness of the design. The way you explained things was clear concise and effective and you brought up points I never would have thought of. It’s nice to that if God Forbid I was ever stranded in the woods without tools or fire, I could make something to keep my ass alive. Awesome vid, you earned a sub tonight lol thanks again for this
Nice to know***
Thanks so much, Alec! I really appreciate your kind words. I had tons of fun making this video.
Animal Man Survivor I actually enrolled in the Tracker School and learned how to make these and I gotta tell you man they’re amazing, after seeing your vid, learning this skill hands on was one of my most favorite things to do.
Great video all around really well done, I can tell who you studied under by using this method and some of the terminology you used. 2 key points that were accidentally skipped over (but you actually applied) is which way your shelter opening should face. (climate specific) But usually a safe bet is east/southeast. And not making a shelter in a valley. Cold air settles, warm air rises. This also goes along with not placing a shelter in a creek bed or floodplain. I loved how you hit on the insulation like a squirrels nest. Tested methods of this shelter have been 4+ feet thick like you mentioned and have withstood -40 degree temps. Subscribed!
THANKS TO THIS VIDEO I WON MY HUT BUILDING COMPITITION I HAVE NOW OFFICIALLY SUBSCRIBED TO YOU
WOW! That is great to hear! I"m glad I was able to help you. That alone makes this video worth it to me. Thank YOU for subscribing!
Great video, i build a 1 sided shelter, first, and loosely pack the inside with debris all the way up. I finish the second side, pile the debris on the outside...very,very warm.
I love how this guy gives a ton of advice and since me and my buddy are are going on a camping trip this summer in Missouri this will help alot
Animal Man Survivor while I was watching this I got an image of a shelter i don't think anyone has made before. It's like a tent but you have like 4 poles in the ground then bend them over and tie them together then use leaves and sticks to cover up the openings between the saplings
Great video thank you 🙏🏼💓
Great video, Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I will be trying this soon!
this is cool I build this just for fun. great video
Thank you AJRGamer1!
Very good job
Thank you my friend!
verry useful!
Great great video. I learned a ton from you. Thanks.
Thank you!
You are 100 % right about the debris hut being the warmest, driest shelter. I’ve slept in them 50 or so times over the last 20 years and every time I make one I improve on them.
excellent
Very good vid, thanks. Subscribed.
Thank you!
amazing step by step instructions!! I just subscribed🤗🤗🤗
Hey, that's an awesome compliment! I very much appreciate that as well as the new sub! Thanks.
welcome !! and thanks again !!
explained very wel
I slept a dozen of Times in one
wel done

Steve
Thanks for that, Steve!
I enjoy your channel but am shocked you would think this shelter is well done.
Good vid!
Thanks bro!
As always - very cool indeed 😊
I have to admit tho - I'd be scared of the spiders and other natives living in amongst the debris here in Oz.
Thank you Belinda! You could always smudge the inside if you were that worried about the bugs.
smudge?
Smoke made by burning certain herbs. In this case, ones that repel insects.
This will be fine untill you roll over and knock it down. Use a longer ridge pole on the top and brace it next to a tree. The way it stands in the video it could be a house of cards. Jab that ridge pole into the ground well. So you don't accidently kick it loose. It is best to find a fallen tree if you can. They make a great start.
i've always learned that you should avoid having the sticks poke out of the top, because they will let water through.
nice shelter though
Was wondering when you were going to do the insulation from the ground...we usually do the bed first in Canada...anyway , great job.. will subscribe

I appreciate that, hope you continue to enjoy my channel!
ADHS MAN SURVIVOR ;-))))))
I know in a survival situation you just want to focus on, you know, *surviving*... But if you have the time, what about bugs? I imagine you could smoke it out, but how do you do so while also smoking out your bedding, all without catching it on fire?
I'll be building one of these in the Nantahala national forest in...about 36 hours. I'll see if I can't answer my own question.
How was it!?!?!
So why do you put the debris into the shelter after you've built it, wouldn't it be easier to do that beforehand?
If you shove the debris in beforehand, it tends to make your structure move around. I am very particular about how I arrange the sticks, and putting the debris on the inside first can mess up the ribbing and lattice. The weight of the leaves on the outside prevents this from happening.
Why do you have your knife on your back side then your side or front ??
It's called carrying "Scout Style". It's used for concealment sometimes, but I use it so it's out of the way when I kneel down or crawl around. Great question.
Would it be better to make the bedding before you put sides on the frame.
Always begin by making a pile of debris next to the debris hut in case for whatever reason you cannot complete the frame....you can just borrow into the leaves and stay warm. I like to wait to place the bedding inside the frame once the frame is done and lots of leaves are already piled on top of the frame. This way, when you push the bedding inside you don't move any of your frame because the outside leaves weigh it down. Hope this helps!
@@animalmansurvivor1452 thanks for the reply, have a great day.
To build one for practice, any tips to avoid poison ivy/ticks etc besides off! and gloves?
Learn the plants sweet Fern and jewelweed for poison ivy prevention/treatment in the bush
WHO THE HELL DISLIKED THIS VIDEO
cant you just sleep the other way instead of adding that entire extention thing on?
Not really. The whole design is that it's tapered towards the feet to be the most efficient. Plus, you would mess up the structure too much trying to back out each time you exit the shelter.
Animal Man Survivor ah okay thanks great video tho!
In Australia we have a very friendly spider who just loves leaf debris and ground litter, the problem is it they are bloody deadly. You would never consider sitting on the bare ground let alone sleeping there, the thought of it sends tingles down my spine. They just love to hunt at night but unfortunately they don't play well with others Just read this quick extract "Funnel-web Spiders are one of the most feared spiders in Australia. Few people are unaware of the notorious Sydney Funnel-web and its frequent run-ins with the residents of the New South Wales capital. And for good reason: Funnel-web Spiders are the most dangerous spiders in Australia, potentially the world. Previously it was believed that the bite from a male Funnel-web Spider was more toxic than that delivered by a female, however
recent studies have revealed the components of male and female venom to be similar; males appear more venomous simply because they are more frequent biters. Sydney Funnel web Spider venom remains the most toxic venom known due to the presence of Atracotoxin, a component not found among species of Hadronyche. " You can keep your little leaf hut, I much prefer to wake up.
