24 Hours with an Ex-Royal Marine Commando: Bushcraft Skills and Tips
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2024
- I spend 24 hours camping with former Royal Marine Nick Goldsmith. Nick teaches some Bushcraft Skills and Survival Tips that he has tried and tested out in the field. We spend the night in a bivvy bag on the forest floor and Nick gives us a tour of his bushcraft camp and off grid cabin.

The pleasure was mine Nick! I hope everyone heads your way and gives you and your channel the exposure it deserved 👊🏻
@@TAOutdoors Cheers Mike 🍻
Subbed, always liked HVB, great chap.. Great colab, really enjoyed this one👍
Nice to see you back on YT Nick. Best wishes to you and your family. ATB Russ 😊👍
Oh man. I miss Nick. These two guys combined and ive learnt soooo much.
NICK IS BACK!! Seriously, I've missed him and I'm so glad to see him wherever I can get him
Terrific to see Nick again, what an incredible instructor and even nicer guy. The collaboration I think every bushcraft enthusiast was looking for!
🎉
Fantastic to see nick again. You had such an impact via your videos nick, Please consider doing more occasionally, even if just very occasionally.
Impressive chap. During my brief Royal Navy career 35 years ago I worked with a fair few Royals and their quiet but competent "can do" attitude was always inspiring to an eighteen year old lad. I will have to investigate both yours and his channels.
🎉
NICK!! Now this is a collab, gents!!
🎉
Just need to get Ryan forrest in now ultimate UK trio
Its great to see Nick back on YT again. Looking forward to Hidden Valley videos again!
Great to see Nick back online! Top bloke.
Merci
Yes, great to see Nick on RUclips again. Great video.
He’s a top guy!
I have been very fortunate as a UK Veteran to spend a weekend on one of Nicks Woodland Warrior Weekends. Reconnecting with the outdoors and spending time away from the daily grind has been a huge benefit and allowed me to find some inner comfort and a safe place to go when required. Thank you Nick and the team for all the amazing hard work.
🤝🤝🤝🤝
Sounds great man.
So much to say but honestly the best way to say it is... We need more Nicks in the world. It's sad that anyone has to go through what he has gone through but it made him the person he is today.
it was so nice to connect with Nick again, I've missed him. I got the ol ptsd and he really helped me through lockdown. Thanks Mike, and Nick, you fantastic chaps!
Great to see the Collab been missing hidden valley, great channel 👍
Top bloke from Lympstone 😉
It was a pleasure filming with Nick. He really is a sound guy.
@@TAOutdoors his crusader cup cooking change my life 😂
Nice to see Nick back,even for a one off,Hidden valley bushcraft was my must watch every Sunday.
The man the myth the legend, glad to see him again. Appreciate you guys!
🤝
Mike, I believe this is the best video you have produced, I have learned so much from this, better ways of doing things
What a guy! Such a natural teacher. Very impressive setup
Cheers
As someone who spends a lot of time outdoors I immensely appreciate this episode. Cheers!
Please give Nick my best. I hope his hiatus from his channel is proving beneficial. THANKS for having him on. We miss him.
Thanks,
Nick
Here Nick
Really good to see you on RUclips again Nick. Really miss your videos - they were always so informative. Your book is on my Christmas wishlist. Take care.
Wow. You have just made my day. I've missed Nick and loved following him on his channel. Finding out he's started a new one is fantastic. Nick, it would be amazing to see/hear you at the next Bushcraft Show next May. Great to see Nick again.
Great video.
New channel ?
Found it
I have to say, Nick is wonderful to watch and is a great teacher of Bushcraft skills. Nick is always quality. His tips are amazing! Well done Mike.
This was way better than most TV program... Great to see Nick again, I really liked his channel a lot. :-) You two guys are the best outdoor duo I´ve seen so far. Once again, I´ve taken a few useful tips with me. Hope from time to time we will have the joy to see more combined videos. Great cabin btw. 👍 Keep going guys! Best regards from Germany
🤝
Thanks for making this one, Mike. Great to see Nick again and to catch up with what he’s up to. Good news to hear that he might be present on the tubes again - the previous channel rapidly became an essential part of the corpus, in my view, delivering (along with the likes of yourself, and notable others) practical, realistic outdoor skills in an entertaining and calming way. And then much missed, although I recognise of course that every content maker has their own life to live, first and foremost. Good on all of you.
{{3}} Great find! I just came across the new crowdfunding project for freebeat's Morph 2-in-1 e-Bike. It's a game-changer in the e-bike industry with its outstanding features. One of the most impressive things is the indoor mode where you can recharge the bike while using it indoors. The brushless 750W motor, 80Nm torque, and top speed of 20mph make it a powerful ride. Plus, the 80mm front suspension, puncture-resistant fat tires, and IPX5 Waterproof finish ensure a smooth and reliable journey in any weather condition. And don't forget about the Smart Saddle Detection+ and the unique ability to convert your indoor fitness efforts into CO2-free miles for outdoor rides. What a brilliant way to combine fitness, technology, and sustainability!
TA outdoors well done for your feature this blokes spot on thank you 👍
🤝
Yes! Love both of your channels. Love to see this!
Thanks
Good to see two of my favourite bushcrafters working together.
👍😎
Thanks! Miss Nick, too, on RUclips. Understand his important work with warriors projects. ❤
Good to see Nick again, and know he is still helping others. 👍
Thanks John
Just watched this guy for the first time. What a pleasure. Really engaging and knowledgable and great to watch and listen to. very humble too.
Thanks
Nicks tarp setup video still my go to. He has the genuine experience of using them too.
Haven't heard from Marine Nick for ages! Great to see he's still about!
❤
Thank you for arranging this video with Nick, we watched many of his previous videos and had wondered where he had gone. Great to see him thriving in an environment that he enjoys and can pass on quality info to people that as we noted could save someone's life one day. The cabin was a winner, families must love that and we know several veterans that have put their families through challenging times on their journey to a better place, so huge respect for the Woodland Warroir work! Now subscribed to both, looking forward to reading the book.
🤝⚔️🇬🇧
I echo all of the previous contributor's comments.
I have watched all of the HVB videos and have been on the Woodland Warrior Programme weekends and outings. What an amazing experience I have had as a result. It gave me the confidence to go into the outdoors and reconnect with the countryside. All is done in a safe learning environment.
What an ambassador for the veteran community to learn about mother nature through bushcraft.
Thanks mate
Good to see Nick back. Such a wealth of knowledge
I love Nick! I've watched all his RUclips videos and bought his book. Hoping he'll continue his channel again one day!
It's awesome to see nick again, I love his channel. Big respect nick, hope your well
Thanks Darren
This was a great collaboration! The torniquet and general first aid advice was really useful given Nicks first hand experience. I see a lot of bushcraft people adding torniquets to their first aid kits without realising they need training in able to use them safely.
definitely recommend an outdoor first aid course that covers all of this stuff in detail over the course of a weekend for anyone who is in the position to need a tourniqet
Ah it’s good to see Nick again. I only discovered his channel a few months before he stopped. That was a great watch and as always you pick up vital tips
Burnishing wood by hand with a stone is such a satisfying task and it creates such a lovely tactile surface.
I love it when you get these lads you know to add value to the channel. What a show, loved it all. Nick is a proper bloody hero on so many levels.
Great video ex infantry here bushcraft saved my life when I was at a low teach my two youngest lads all skills i know, wouldn't be here for them if i didn't follow this pathway,the best rehabilitation for anyone with ptsd ,👍
Great to see Nick back online again! I really missed his insights after he stopped creating for the old channel so very thankful to be pointed towards the new channel, subbed.
🤝
I love watching bushcraft videos. It unlocks something deep inside me. Surviving with minimalism is something we forgot long time ago. Even if I am barely going to use these skills atleast it brings me closer to the nature.
Nick is one of my heroes. You guys should team up more often. I miss his videos.
🤝💥
We will do 👍🏻
Absolutely golden, as Nick said "good egg" helping those of us who missed the changing of the guard to keeping us up to speed of events. Wishing both channels success in the future.
Thanks
@@NickGoldsmith776
No probs, wish I could make it to Go Wild, would have looked forward to your talk. Good luck with it, Boot Neck.
This was a pleasureful watch. Nick is a really nice person. I would hang out with him a night or two.
What a great collaboration between two bastions of British bushcraft.
Ive missed you Nick and have subscribed to your new channel.
Im looking forward to all the new content.
There were some golden nuggets of info in this video, which goes to show you never stop learning.
As an NHS Paramedic, I'm fully on board with not just carrying major trauma kit but having it ready to deploy instantly. Tearing one of those foil packets open with blood-soaked hands is no easy task. Food for thought.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this and hope you guys team up again.
Thank you.
🤝
I'm going to add to the Nick love . Fantastic to see him back on my screen.
Always loved Nicks channel and videos. One of my favorite content creators!
Thrilled to have Nick’ videos back on RUclips. Because of him I have gone out to camp, camp solo and volunteered for a conservation group here in Canada - Canada Parks And Wilderness Society
He was so happy to have you there! Guess he needs his story told!
Indeed , if it helps someone out there I all for it .
I am so glad he is back his old channel was easily top 5 for me and I still use it as a reference for things I’ve learned from him. So happy he is back great video with you both a lot of knowledge was passed around that camp fire I’m sure.
Great to see Nick again!! Miss his videos!
Great Video. Nick is a proper hero. Great advice from him. Thank you for your service Sir. 👍
Great video lads, The UK needs more bushcraft schools and dedicated places where people can practice their hobbies.
Its becoming harder to find land owners who will give you permission to access their land. I started bushcraft/survival camping when i was about 10, using my grandfathers canvas P37 web set to store my gear and an old British Army clasp knife. the Changes to UK knife laws is also making things harder for people. I'm now living in France where the rules on wild Camping "le camping sauvage" and Knives are less strict (everybody carries at least one folding lockable 4' cheese knife) dans la campagne
Thanks for another great video and its good to See Nick back on You Tube.
So great to see @NickGoldsmith776 again. I miss his RUclips channel and forgotten he had written a book. I just ordered it on Amazon!!! With love from Northern California. ❤
Excellent video; absolute gold dust. I have missed Nick's channel but good to hear there's a Phoenix. Have bought the coffee, the book and subscribed to Nick's new channel. Thank you, both!
Watched this video in one go. This guy is a great speaker and very knowledgeable. Thanks Mike for the great video
🙌
@@NickGoldsmith776 thank you too obviously for sharing your knowledge! was a blast to watch
Wow what a cool dude. I'm glad he's found something that fulfils him after a tough life with the marines. Lots of respect to you Nick.
It’s so good to see Nick again. Great video, thanks guys.
So happy to see Nick back.
Have been wanting this collaboration for a long time, Nick is such a solid guy so good to see on the channel
An amazing human being and his work is really great. I do hope his new channel grows as much as he deserves. And seing you both talking was fantastic! Thank uou for this!
Mike - this video has made me think that you should get into podcasting! Get survival guests on, like the chap in this video, it would be great to listen to and I am certain lot of people would be interested.
💯 Agree
NICK ❤❤❤❤❤ hugs ! Great to see you !
Thank you Mike. This was a great video & a brilliant collaboration with Nick. You 2 guys epitomise everything with the great outdoors, bushcraft & nature. Hopefully see some more in the future 👍
Wow...that was awesome. Really cool sites he's got out there, and loved the in the bag segment. Very insightful.
Oh I've wanted to see Nick on again for ages. Brilliant collab and I think I'm going to make my wife get me a course for my birthday next year. Want one of the hidden valley patches 😂.
💪🤝
Hey there! As a fellow ebike enthusiast, I stumbled upon this new project called freebeat Morph 2-in-1 e-Bike after watching your video. I must say, I'm truly impressed by the outstanding features this bike offers. The ability to charge the bike when applying indoor mode is a game-changer! Not only does it provide an exhilarating speed and power with its brushless 750W motor, but the 80mm front suspension and puncture-resistant fat tires also ensure a smooth ride in any outdoor terrain. And the fact that it can transform indoor fitness into CO2-free miles for outdoor rides is a brilliant way to make a positive impact on the environment. Can't wait to see this product in action and support the crowdfunding campaign! Keep up the amazing work!
I really enjoyed Hidden Valley bushcraft , his videos were always very informative, plus he always responded to posts , questions or queries , nice touch 👍
I've heard about this awesome woodland retreat that supports injured serving and veterans in all aspects, and I am glad I've stumbled across this vlog. I am a veteran who's battling with mental health issues, i.e., GAD & PTSD after being diagnosed 02 years after covid. I am currently looking at activities that involve being in a natural environment, being from the Pacific Islands myself, and loving the earth's oven, too. Great work in the campaign, and a big thank you for your support.
Dude, link up with other Wild Campers and get out, many are ex Military
@makinganoise6028 Thanks, buddy. I will definitely get involved and enjoy the wildlife and its natural surroundings, lol.
@@Kaii_679 do it, don't need Gucci gear in summer, just get out and chill, good for a reset.
It's so very, very refreshing to see Nick and HVB back on RUclips: I, too, was a regular watcher of his channel before it went silent. In fact, I owe him a special kind of debt, because it was after conversation with him on how to pack a "brew" kit properly, that I found my favorite brand of tea!
Now, we've got lots more to pore over from him, so this video will naturally get more views in the future . . .
Finally an expert giving tips!
Nice to see you again nick
Excellent to see Nick back on my screen. I've learned so many practical skills and hacks about outdoor living from watching very informative and clear videos from both these guys. I'm so glad Nick is feeling better. I was only thinking of him last week when I was out in the woods. Brilliant to see you both out together. Thank you.
Good to see Nick on YT again. His departure was rather sudden and was one of my absolute favorite bushcraft channels.
Great to see Nick. Awesome video guys. Keep up the amazing work you guys do. Inspirational !!
🤝
What an amazing man!
He makes a great teacher.
Nic's book is excellent, this is a great collaboration video.
Had a vein pop on lower leg my sensei used a karate belt to stem bleeding blood everywhere had nerve damage for about about 12 month's but saved leg and life amazing first aid advice God bless you 👍
Awesome to see nick again, I used to watch him all the time.
Thank you Mike for this video. An a big thank you to Nick . I been looking an waiting on Nick to come back from his break . I'm going over straight away to subscribe to Nick's new channel . Again thank you both for all you do .
