How to get water from a tree.
It's refreshing to see someone actually transferring knowledge worth having.
I appreciate your feedback! I think it’s important!
Very. We all got a little knowledge that the other one doesn't.
Let me 1st say thank you to NATO, your comrades, and you for your service, dedication, and sacrifices. I am a professional wilderness survival writer and just wanted to add a couple of tips.
A slightly larger, deeper hole, and at an elevated angle would increase the rate of flow of the water from the tree, and I would also do this lower to the ground, maybe 2 feet from the base.
You can also use a porous rope and insert it inside the hole to use as a wick and put the other end of rope into the GI Canteen.
Although, least from what I know of North American trees, the White Birch tree is the only tree with drinkable water that can be harnessed by this method, but one could also use this setup on a Maple Tree for the sap. I would point out that it would be best to bring the sap to boil to kill any bacteria, but you will not only get hydrated but also get in some calories. I personally would even throw in some pine needles for extra nutrients while you are bring the sap to boil.
(note, maple syrup is reducing this sap to 1/20th- 1/40th, which is not what one is doing here. You are simply bringing this to a boil to kill bacteria, and not reducing it for 12 + hours to make Maple Syrup))
There are also certain vines that one can cut to drink from like Grape vines for example. The rule of thumb, if the vine has clear liquid it is safe, if it has color to it, run like the wind.
Thank you for your feedback! Much appreciate to tips for next time 😃👍🏼
Maple sap is safe to consume as is you only boil it to make syrup but yes if you are afraid of possible bacteria it would be wise to let it boil for a sec and throw in some bitch leaves for tea for some extra vitamin c
Thank you NATO for sending me back home alive and not being chopped by some kind of Taliban while in artillery branche. All NATO is bs so was my mind that I wrongfully lost 4 years of my life. But thanks God I'm back home alive
Thank you for your service, Johnny Sins.
😂 I’ve been told we look alike before…
@@pousinboots 😂 I’m just kidding man, seriously thank you and great vid.
Awesome! Facts like this can definitely save lives in survival situations
Correct! Helpful information. Alesh also mentioned that using the birch tree leaves for tea provides vitamin C. That was the first time I tasted the water from a tree! I figured I would film it live so that you could see my natural reaction to it. It tasted really fresh and slightly sweet. Kind of like nectar.
Here in Ukraine, you can actually by this water in supermarkets. We call it "березовий сік".
I didn’t know that! That’s pretty cool. I’m curious to taste the one in Ukraine 👍🏼
It's a sap not just a water. One importnant thing to mention - since it's a sap it will begin to ferment after a few days.
True, it is sap. I just find it easier to say.
Really good to know! I didn’t know it would ferment over a few days… thought it would take longer like weeks
Good information and valuable content. Glad to see NATO troops working together. Thank you and to all of the others for your/their service. The tool on the knife used to create the hole is called an awl, they are very useful.
Correct! The awl! But no one really knows what that is 😄 I’ve always used it to make a small hole as a driving hole for screws. Never used it to stitch thick leather yet.
Nice video! Always find your videos very high quality
Thanks! I try to be clear in my instruction 👍🏼
Good tip. Many people in septentrional areas use it to make beer and drink as well. This water is full of sugars but feels more like fresh water.
Good channel to educated civilians for survival and also to teach them to work as a team, i highly respect the military,thanks for your service and keep strong, Oorah!!
Thanks! I try to improve our force the best way I can 👍🏼
keep going bro, thanks for your contents are useful and so much important
Will do. Thanks for the feedback!
Looking forward to spring to try this...
Fire training vid
I appreciate the feedback 😀👍🏼 I try to find valuable information to share with our Paras
@@pousinboots did you make a video for fire yet? and perhaps navigation
Great video. Thx for this survival hack.✌💯
Great channel. Great video. Thank you.
You’re welcome! I appreciate your support!
Great information. Kudos
thank you
Great video! Always happy learn more survival techniques? By the way what is the name of the plate carrier you are using?
Great video👍
It’s not just birch. You can use maple tress as well.
❤Amazing Information
You can do that with maples, too. If you collect enough, you can boil it down, then pour it on pancakes. 🙄
great video. thanks
1:28 Preferably you can fill the hole with pine pitch. This also works with late spring Walnut but harvest at the wrong time and youll end up with more of a sweet syrup closer to what sugar maple will give you
Nice! Thanks for the explanation 😀👍🏼
Maple as well works
Correct! It also works for Maple trees 👍🏼
Not just BIRCH !❤ MAPLE TOO, the sap is 97% water if u boil water out u get remaining maple syrup, other types trees too yall ❤
Good to know! Thanks! 👌🏼
@@pousinbootsI'm in South Mississippi. Use wild vines for this.
This is great! Could you show us your MSV configuration one of these days?
Soooo Cooool!
Ain't the way Rambo did it! Oh yeah retired sere instructor lol
Awesome 👍🏼 would love to attend SERE one day 😃
Good luck from slovakia.. east wing
très bon contenu. sans rapport, mais tu es beau et je ne laisserais jamais ma femme te rencontrer de peur de la perdre
lol. Good vid sky soldier
I know all about this trick. hehe
Surprised to see you in Slovenia :)
it was recorded in Latvia in 2022, Slovenian soldier was part of eFP 10 ROTO
You are correct 👌🏼
How does it not taste like wood shavings?
So this only works on birch trees?
It works on a variety of trees. The Maple tree being another common one.
How to stop the dripping water?
It stops on its own
This is not water, but birch sap and it happens only in a certain season
Your not water
Correct. I just say water to make be more straight forward. You can drink it for hydration is what is important to remember. I say that this technic only works in the spring season 😉👍🏼
Yes but MOSTLY water ❤
Will that work with any tree
No, only a few trees. Birch and Maple trees for what I know. There are probably other trees I’m not aware of
@@pousinboots okay thanks 👍
I saw comment recently Abt an Australian tree 🌺
@@lalanirhythmchanter5566 OK
why don't you pull the stick out of the tree, the tree will die from dehydration
It’s the other way around. You put in the stick to avoid insects from entering. Also after a few hours, the water stops coming out.
😂
😅😅stop trying to act like your some kind of Spec Ops when you call an awl a "hole puncher thing" FOH with that noise.
Hole puncher tool😂😂😂. It's called an AWL. It is a tool for sewing leather or other fabrics. SMH. Kids these days.
Yes I know it’s an awl. But if I say that, people won’t know what I’m talking about. When leading a block of instruction, it is important to keep the attention and understanding of the students.
dovrebbe funzionare anche con la quercia se non vado errato.
That's not water that's sap i have been collecting that stuff forever.
Correct! It’s just more straight forward to call it water since it’s very liquid early in the season.
