      Mine died this year. Parents were never real parents. Was taught minimal things by my dad, he never wanted to do anything or hard to get him to teach anything. I kinda wish I was allowed to do some kind of scout program and do things like this. Came across the channel looking up how to do something and one of his videos was one of the results.

    I felt really bad for a second because when I saw this video I thought "who the hell doesn't know how to start a fire and make s'mores?" and then I realized I had a father figure in my life to teach me how to do it. Seeing your videos make me appreciate my father figures alot more, and help me realize how lucky I am. I don't get to see my father too often anymore because I live 2 thousand miles away from him, But having him in my life as a kid until I moved out is something took for granted until I saw your channel.

Neither of my parents, both of whom are now deceased, were the s'more-making type, so until I watched this video I thought the opportunity had passed me by. Thank you for posting it. I will use this video while I attempt to make my own s'mores next week after I go to the store. Thanks for doing what you do!

    as someone who is teaching kids fire-building skills I want to point out the difference in the amount of kindling he has to logs he has a lot more kindling than logs (this is something that tripped me up & almost everyone kid I've worked with) another thing is be patient with the fire treat it like a living growing thing (feed it little food then work your way up to big stuff)

And my mother who knew almost everything to hell me didnt know this stuff. I only commented on this vid because it's new and so you have a chance to read this. Thank you for being a dad to 2.5 I think... million people. Btw it does sound like my mom is bad. But she isnt. She was just taught not to dk men jobs. She wants me to be able to achieve my dreams. No matter what the job is she supports me.

    We recently went camping. We are in our 60s. We spent at least an hour trying to make a camp fire. It was a frustrating experience. We finally got it going but we’re too exhausted to enjoy it. LOL. We came home and watched some videos. One guy was amazing and made a fire using wet wood and duct tape rolls believe it or not. He wanted to show how to make a fire even in the rain. Anyhow, your video showed how important kindling is. We thought we used a sure thing. We read that you can stuff toilet paper rolls with dryer lint but it didn’t work too well. This was so helpful. Patience is definitely key. Also, can you believe I’ve never had a s’more? Thank you for this wonderful video. And your garden is spectacular.

    Hi there! Thank you so much for posting all of these videos. I bought s’mores supplies at the grocery store last week and this video comes in handy for that! But also, I had some minor car trouble today. I have triple A but my first instinct was to call my dad. We don’t have the best relationship and his first reaction was to yell at me. I was in a different state than him, so I couldn’t really ask for his help or for him to come get me. But his words made me very upset when I was already frustrated. Everything worked out just fine and I was able to drive the car to my house without any problems, thankfully. But I’m going to call my car dealership first thing in the morning to look at my car (the check engine light turned on but then turned itself off after I was sitting on the side of the road for 15 minutes waiting for the tow truck.) I watched all of your car videos and they were so helpful. Thank you for your calm and resourceful videos. P.S. after a long and nerve wracking drive home, hearing your “dad joke” made me genuinely laugh out loud!

      Do they not have camp sites where you live? Or would you just rather go camping in America? Either way, I hope when you do go camping, you enjoy your s’more! They’re so great when they’ve been made over a fire

    My Dad didn't have a Dad growing up - so he's struggled my entire life on how to be a Father to me. I learned a lot from him about tools and building things - he definitely did that right and never made me feel like - as a girl - I don't need to know these types of things. I had a project I wanted to do in my studio - something simple - cutting some wood and giving it a clear coat to make a solid surface on a wire shelf. And I did it without losing any fingers! I was pretty proud of myself...and I thought about you and your channel :)
    I'm so fortunate that - even though my Dad was not the nicest person when I was growing up - that he still let me know that I could do anything I wanted to. Thank you for this channel and giving us the knowledge we need to not be scared to do something :)

    Another few tips for deep woods camping. 1) use dry, fast burning wood to start, like pine and then add heavier dense wood laterwhen the heat can handle it, like oak (make sure everything is cut small enough to allow easy burning). 2) if you're overwhelmed with tall trees that block out any wind in your area (inhibiting airflow and constant oxygen), just blow a fan on it on the light setting from a safe distance (don't use any setting that causes burning papers or embers to be blown away). 3) please make sure you're being safe with over lying brush that could take a flame. Burn within your means and always be aware of how your fire might interact with the forest/buildings around you. Cut away any overhanging limbs within 5 to 6 feet from the top of your fire.

    Thanks for the tips Dad! I recently found your channel and I've watched all your videos. Unfortunately, my Dad passed away when I was 14 and your videos always cheer me up. I'm planning on visiting my boyfriend in the U.S., who's new house has a fire pit, and I've been wanting to making s'mores with him - I've never had one before. I'll be sure to use your tips once I'm able to fly over and visit him!

    As a pro tip you can give the Firestarter a light spray of olive oil* that'll help it burn for a bit longer to assist the kindling as well i learned this from a scout master from when i was in the scouts
    *it doesn't matter the grade of olive oil either

    I love this channel. I have a dad, but hes not really great at doing things correctly. Whenever he makes a fire he smothers it in lighter fluid and puts way too many leaves and stuff that makes it smokey and leaves the food tasting bad. He also plants a ton of things in the yard and almost all of them die. So opening this video and seeing actual living plants and a fire done correctly was so refreshing.
