Sir you are simply amazing! Not only do you teach on the shelter but real recent history!! Turning in old wool clothes & receiving blankets & more!!! Love love love your videos
Great info ! I once lined a bivy sack with a mylar blanket and was warm enough at first in a sleeping bag encapsulated in said mylar lined bivy.. A few hours later when I was chilled I discovered a layer of ice had formed on the inside of the mylar due to the condensation of moisture and impermeability of my encapsulant. This ice caused conductive heat loss just as outlined here. I removed the mylar layer and body heat warmed the bivy enough to let me fall asleep again. This taught me a valuable lesson in how moisture from ones's body can be trapped in impermeable layers , subsequently freeze , and lead to convective loss. Thanks for sharing !
Simply the best, better than all the rest! there is only one Mors Thank you for a fantastic video, so much information to digest, I will have to watch 10 times.
Thank you! I think I have learn more in just this one video rather then 20videos put together thats out there on the web. Its just so straight forward, practical and mind opening.
The best explanation on the difference between reflectivity and insulation! Thank you very much for sharing this with us! Stay safe and keep having fun!
Light is a vibrating frequency. Black surfaces absorb the light spectrum and warm up due to the vibrations. Lighter colors reflect or don't absorb the light spectrum and are cooler. Thanks for putting these videos out.
Use fabric adhesive, lay out a black tarp slightly larger than your desired finished size,spray a light layer of adhesive on the the tarp then lay on a wool blanket, then spray adhesive on the blanket and lay out mylar on that then spray adhesive on the edges of the mylar and fold in the edges of the tarp, (or sew. It ) then you have an excellent survival blanket
Thank you Mors, I appreciate your videos. Please keep uploading as recordings from a guru such as yourself are priceless.. I like those olive or brown blankets actually, its not for style but for function which is what matters in bushcraft.
Thanks Mors : Lot of useful information there . I've been pinning one of those mylar sheets to the inside pf my tent in the late fall for years for reflctinity with great results. Brian 76
As always, great to see you again Mors. My only wish, is that the youngsters, or anybody for that matter, pays attention to your words. Best wishes to you and the family, and a Happy and Healthy New Year......... ; )
I wish I could afford to travel and spend some time with you around a camp fire.you have so much knowledge and a ton of life experience stories I would love to listen to.thanks again Morse for your awesome insight in all things of science and bushcraft.godbless...
Please keep these videos coming! It's a great way to learn, and I don't mind the ads. I can't really afford to go take a course at Karamat right now, so somebody has to pay. We need to suck up all that is Mors while he is still here, which is hopefully for a good long time. Next time my cat looks cold, I'll tell her to put her tail down! Take care.
Mr. Kochanski, you are the Alberta's clone of our Jack Rabbit here in the Laurentides. Herman "Jackrabbit" Smith-Johannsen dies at the age of 111 years old and was skying the day before he past away.... I have great respect for what you done in the Bushcraft community here and around the world. Please upload more video and if one day you have a chance to tell a story or 2 on your bear encounter, that will be great. Happy holidays to you and yours. Frank
Great video as always. I hope you can elaborate on fasting, felling with an axe, and perhaps fire with green wood in future videos. But in any case, have a great New Year and I will watch any of the information you all put out.
Well said! My first winter camping trip I realized that I didn’t even need a fire to stay warm. I ate food then crawled into my tent and sleeping bag. The hard part was getting out of my toasty warm sleeping bag in the morning.
I slept out in 7 degrees F a couple weeks ago, no fire, in the back of my truck as a test to see if I was out of the wind and off the ground whether I'd be okay without an external heat source. It worked out fine, I was perfectly cozy. I used the marine corps modular sleep system.
That's a safe way to do it. When you get out into open-air or your shelter it will help to have as much head coverage as possible: a good hat or balaclava, have your head as close to the shelter as possible, and use your pack and jacket to create even more of a barrier. Helps a tonne.
What a legend! Mylar reflective foil is great in my "hammock through sleeping bag" setup (yes, two holes, works as under and overquilt, airgap below you, add big sleeping bag for winter) - I put it into the bottom of the sleeping bag (cheap sub-kilo), but you have to put some spare clothes below your waist to avoid condensation. It lasts surprisingly long if you are careful (I started with it as an experiment, never took it away) - after maybe twenty nights (mylar packed inside!) I taped the outside of the foil.
Great video Mors! I love the thicker emergency blankets but I find them too small as you describe. Anyone know a company that sells larger sized emergency blanket?
everyone in the USA is lugging around at least20 lbs of fat. If you can't handle carrying 5 lbs of life saving gear, and 2 lbs of heavier clothing items, then lose 7 lbs of your blubber and all will be well.
holly cow , you were just a little kind with the "twenty pounds of fat" comment. I ain't seen a thin man so long I have to look at a old b&w movie to see one!
I'm curious about those old hudson bay blankets. he said they way they made them back then they had a nap of about 3cm, is this at the same weight but just really, really fuzzy? or were those blankets made in such a way that there was physically just much more material?
Insulative qualities are not solely dependant upon "thickness". Polyester and sheep's wool benefit from "thickness" , Down depends upon loft , Alpaca , Angora, and Brushy-tailed Possum depend upon neither "thickness" nor loft and all are substantially more insulative than both sheep's wool and polyester. If you have to equate warmth with " thickness"....think microns.
Insulated: adjective protected by interposing material that prevents the loss of heat or the intrusion of sound. "an insulated loft" Definitions from Oxford Languages - It does not have to have thickness by definition. You're thinking the most common type of insulation by trapping air, therefore having thickness. - Also saying you don't mind the blanket being 5x larger and paying 2x more doesn't make any sense. You'd had to pay 5x more obviously.
maybe one could improve this technology by using something vapor permeable like tyvek or goretex that has been aluminized? thereby allowing moisture to pass while reflecting radiant heat.
the flimsy space blankets are worthless. The "heavy duty" one, however, saved my life on rainy, windy, 35F night. SOL sells one that's "breathable", and if you put bug netting inside of it, and put it inside of a heavy duty space blanket, both of them enlarges and made into bags, you have something worth carrying! Use velcro all the way around the seams of the inside one, along with a drawstring at the neck, with a drawstring hood. The big, heavy duty mylar bag, use snaps, cause velcro around other velcro is a nightmare. Also use snaps around the edges of the bug net bag. I also cover it all with a clear plastic bag, made of fiber-glass thread reinforced construction plastic, with snaps. This bag can of course form the front of the supershelter. Since it and the heavy duty bag have been made 8 ft long, the pair of them will meet at the ends of the leanto, around the curled up body of a 6 ft tall man. If you'll put a stick "wall" on the far side of the fire, and face it with heavy duty aluminum foil, it will reflect enough more heat that your fire can be smaller. You can then have the fire be closer to the front of your shelter, especially if you put the fire down into a trench. Heat rocks, wrap them in spare clothing/socks, and bring them inside of the shelter with you. Ditto hot water in your bottles. That's worth another 10F degrees. I use the water first, and after it cools off (about 2 hours) , I set the bottles in the corner of the shelter, bring in the first of the hot rocks.
Well, it's non-permeable so moisture will not release. This means that if you start getting warm to the point of producing moisture then that moisture will accumulate on your clothes and the blanket. Similar to rubber raincoats. The wetness will eventually become a danger because it takes a while to get out of your clothing, and the wet clothing can increase heat loss at worst or reduce your insulation to almost nothing at best. Vapour-barrier liners are an extreme example of this. People use them to keep moisture out of their sleeping bags, despite the fact that they have to sleep feeling wet. What Mors is alluding to is that use of these sheets as a blanket can result in potentially hypothermic situations, as has been reported in Scandinavia. So he feels their use as a shelter material is much more appropriate.
It makes me wonder why a blend would not be a good means of making a blanket. 80 wool 20 something else that has been coated to be aluminiumized like the Mylar blanket. You'd have both a blanket with built in reflectivity, and with breathability no?
Not sure about blankets but permeable thermal reflective layers have been incorporated into (onto) some outdoor clothing. Search for "Omni-heat". I don't personally know how good it is but it seems to me like you should get a significant benefit with negligible down sides in many applications.
Mors: Great Video thank you. We recently had a Big Monkey search for the best way to use this 'banket' and your explanation will help them very much. You paid attention when you were in school. Very good. You have your physics and experimented and put together knowledge we all need very much. By the way, can you weigh a gram on a scale? See if you have thought about what you learned in your physics classes. Godspeed, long life Mors.
lol guess that's the cats ass lol still amazing the wealth of knowledge this man has thanks mors answered the Hudson bay mystery too as to why the old trappers coat looked so thick stay safe god speed brother
This guy is awesome. Very refreshing to see a review where they know what they're talking about... I watched one the other day from this poor little girl I guess you was from Florida and she was visiting some place up north. She put one of those blankets around her for 5 minutes and that was all the proof she had. And everyone was kissing her butt saying how great she was. And when I pointed out the fact that when you touch the plastic of a cold goes through. And it doesn't take long for condensation to build up. All those idiots attacked me like I was calling her a prostitute or something. That's okay. It would be funny to watch them suffer if they're ever stupid enough to depend on anything she said
the problem with "winter gear" is that it's worthless the rest of the year. I wanted a lw, compact 4 season set up ,and I got it. Sleeping on the ground is almost always a bad idea. I can almost always find at least one tree, from which I can do a one point suspension of the shelter and the hammock, so that I can sleep sitting up. Lash yourself back to the tree, wrap the shemaugh as a neck brace, and pop a 10 mg, timed release Ambien. Rolling over on spides, centipedes, snakes, skorpions, etc, is far too commonplace a happening and the ground is way too often cold, hard, full of sharp debris.
Blanket: noun 1. A large piece of woven material used as a covering for warmth, especially on a bed. 2. A layer that covers or encloses: a blanket of snow. It does not imply thickness, your thinking says this. You also failed when you faulted when you said the mylar has no thickness. If that was true it wouldn't exist. There is also a huge difference between your polypropylene and the space blanket. Wet wool is also hazardous if you can't produce enough heat to keep ahead of the amount needed to warm the water in the wool spaces. You failed to show the best mylar blanket, Blizzard products blanket. It is quilted and exceeds wool at rewarming. You can tape together 4 mylar sheets in a survival situation.
This guy is so missing the point mylar is for an emergency like hypethermia or some one who is imobile with a broken leg stuck up a moutain waiting for rescue to keep you glow in you and not putting it in the air only take 3 to 5 degrees core change to set in hyperthermia, its not a sleep system he is right about mosture problem in a sleeping bag so dont try it the other green one is good for shealter as reflector good also as ground sheat under sleeping bag as it will reflect cold. mylar is also good in desert as will reflect the sun as for the size carry 2 one for ground in cold temps if you can move casulty on to it after you splinted there leg dont forget most people will have clothes on but stripping of with hypertherma is common as it affects the brain thats why most people die and are found with no clothes
If you want people to watch your videis you need to get rid of the adds thst show up at least once a minute. I like Mors but I will not endure the adds......
Adblock and ghostery are simple app downloads that everyone should have on their computers at this point. Never see youtube ads that way, and almost all popups get blocked.
Mors RIP.
Incredible man. The genius of simplicity, nature lover, philosopher, and appreciated the "old school" science. 😁👍
Who is this incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable man??? He's awesomely helpful and wise!!!
He is the bushcraft guru Mors Kochanski :D
This is an excellent video Mr. Kochanski. Thank you for taking time make these.
Sir you are simply amazing!
Not only do you teach on the shelter but real recent history!!
Turning in old wool clothes & receiving blankets & more!!!

Great videos! You have surely re-sparked my interest in bush craft and hunting. Keep them coming!
Thank you Mr. Kochanski for this info. I have a much better understanding on how to use this product. Thanks for sharing
Use fabric adhesive, lay out a black tarp slightly larger than your desired finished size,spray a light layer of adhesive on the the tarp then lay on a wool blanket, then spray adhesive on the blanket and lay out mylar on that then spray adhesive on the edges of the mylar and fold in the edges of the tarp, (or sew.

thanks for adding to the e-library... videos add a lot!
This video along with the super shelter video probably saved many lives.
Thanks again for sharing you knowledge and wisdom. You style of teaching is great.
Thanks Mors : Lot of useful information there . I've been pinning one of those mylar sheets to the inside pf my tent in the late fall for years for reflctinity with great results. Brian 76
Brian 76 that is good to hear. I too have used the super shelter and modified it for my immediate surroundings
As always, great to see you again Mors. My only wish, is that the youngsters, or anybody for that matter, pays attention to your words. Best wishes to you and the family, and a Happy and Healthy New Year......... ; )
A Masterclass .... Thank you

better stick to vehice camping, if you use that 10 lb monster sleep system. Get it wet, and it's worthless, too.
The man is full of wisdom ....I like it...
Mors have a great year thanks for sharing

Good to See you Mors....Happy Holidays from an Hour South..
good information... thank you Mors
Might have been a good idea to include an explanation of the different properties between conduction and radiant heat.
Thanks for your work! Excellent as usual.Looks like Mors is carrying a kukri. Does anyone know anything about it?TIA!
thank you for sharing your knowledge! have a great 2017 sir!
Thanks a lot! Greetz from Germany.
great video thank you
Thank Mors.
Thankyou for telling the truth about these ... !
I'm grateful for the information always, but 5 ads in 30 a 30 min vid is rough
I think You Picked on the Mylar a Bit though... It was a one off use remember...
Thank you for the great insight and inspiration!
i lost at the end,about the cat lol,great video as always!
Swietny ekspert!!!! Mors duzo nauczyl mnie!

@@robertl.fallin7062 hahahahah so true. and I'm fat as fuck too
Exercise and have a good diet. If you are in the wilderness a lot you can lose excess weight through exercise and acclimation.
Ha! In a longer term survival situation with limited food available the fat guy is carrying 20lbs of food on him!
@@carlbernsen1290 you and we all have much much much more than 20 lbs of fat let's be real
Show us the kukri.
fascinating and informative as ever
He is right. I checked this out & heat lost starts faster later. It is progressively faster, sneaks up on you.
You are so correct
Very Worthwhile knowledge.

maybe one could improve this technology by using something vapor permeable like tyvek or goretex that has been aluminized? thereby allowing moisture to pass while reflecting radiant heat.
The 2Go Systems Trifecta [blanket/bivvy bag/tarp] has aluminum coated Tyvek. It works very well.
Wouldn't work. Same as the tiny hole acting as a chimney.

I'm a little confused. So the Mylar blanket only has a grace period of a few hours before it starts to chill you instead of keeping you warm?
Well, it's non-permeable so moisture will not release. This means that if you start getting warm to the point of producing moisture then that moisture will accumulate on your clothes and the blanket. Similar to rubber raincoats.

I discovered you through "Survival Lilly" ! You, sir, are one of the very best ever at your craft !

My father has given me two of the blanket size sheets, i added them to my kit,glad i watched ,i think hes trying to kill me,lmao.
LOL I love the ending hilarious the cats anus glows LOL I need that infrared app!
Bushcraft survivalist Ojibway Chippewas
I always thought survival in the woods meant dont get lost😁
what about 3 whool blankets then are like sheep whill that work
Well mylar is a joke because it does not breathe and you will sweat inside and get wet and freeze to death been there done that.
Blanket: noun
1. A large piece of woven material used as a covering for warmth, especially on a bed.
2. A layer that covers or encloses: a blanket of snow.
It does not imply thickness, your thinking says this.
You also failed when you faulted when you said the mylar has no thickness. If that was true it wouldn't exist. There is also a huge difference between your polypropylene and the space blanket. Wet wool is also hazardous if you can't produce enough heat to keep ahead of the amount needed to warm the water in the wool spaces. You failed to show the best mylar blanket, Blizzard products blanket. It is quilted and exceeds wool at rewarming. You can tape together 4 mylar sheets in a survival situation.
This guy is so missing the point mylar is for an emergency like hypethermia or some one who is imobile with a broken leg stuck up a moutain waiting for rescue to keep you glow in you and not putting it in the air only take 3 to 5 degrees core change to set in hyperthermia, its not a sleep system he is right about mosture problem in a sleeping bag so dont try it the other green one is good for shealter as reflector good also as ground sheat under sleeping bag as it will reflect cold. mylar is also good in desert as will reflect the sun as for the size carry 2 one for ground in cold temps if you can move casulty on to it after you splinted there leg dont forget most people will have clothes on but stripping of with hypertherma is common as it affects the brain thats why most people die and are found with no clothes
