    About Live Free or Die:
    Live Free or Die follows five members of a remote but growing American subculture of self-proclaimed Re-Wilders who’ve vowed to leave the modern world behind in order to survive in backwoods, deserts, mountains and swamps by hunting their own food, building their own shelters, and finding their own water - using only their own two hands, sharp intuition and time tested methods.

    Matt is a wealth of knowledge, skills and integration of spirit with nature. A delight to listen to and watch. There is so little authentic living and philosophy in how we live today. Thanks, Matt!

    Honestly, if you're going out in the wild, it's only smart to bring rope and a machete, along with matches/lighter and/or firestarter.

      You can easily make that with wild plants if you know what to look for, but that much would take at least a week to produce. That's also providing that you were wrapping it while kicking back for a whole lot of hours and not doing anything else. (Natural cordage that's actually worth a damn is quite time intensive, so I'm sure they're skipping all that to keep things short. So it's reasonable to treat it as an available resource, even if not immediately so as in this presentation.)

      This method could be done in many parts of the world. For instance boats like these were popular in Egypt for thousands of years. The Egyptian ones are made from papyri. In this video he said the plant he used was a bullrush. In general it's a matter of looking for a long stemmed plant that is very lightweight when dried. On of the benefits of using this type of plant is that it can be done in places that have few trees.
