That looked like flipping hard work! Huge respect to you for sticking with it, we guess back in the day there wasn't the option of getting the lighter out instead 😂🙈. Never would have said that was possible, the replay was so satisfying🙌 🔥 All the best, Pete and Shell
I bow before thee mighty fire god. I never would have thought it possible, having briefly tryed it myself. Primitive ways are fascinating me, just to get a glimpse of the huge journey we have taken but also how we have adapted along the way gj my friend and thanks for sharing 👍👍
Thanks 🙏 definitely took some time and patience using this method. Shows how amazing amadou is and also the time it took our ancestors, that's largely why they'd have carried fire from one place to another on those bracket funguses because it was such a ballache to get one going in the first place 😅
Just mud and water yeah. Next time I'll think about adding some charcoal or sand as temper to try and dry it out more evenly and possibly burnish it. This was just a very rough and ready experimental process thing. 💜🤙🏽 Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a gorgeous coastline! 😍🌊. Really interesting video as ever, we were amazed by the sparks when you pointed the camera down. Will look forward to seeing this in action 🔥👌 All the best, Shell and Pete 😊👊
We love that you are always coming up with something new to try out. Turned out pretty well too 👌. Sure that little pot will fit in nicely at josh's woods 😊👍🙌
Nice one Rob, cheers dude. I think i saw Ray Mears light a horses hoof fungus and he was able to carry it with him so he could light his fires at different locations. Great video buddy.
Some research will tell you that humans first used fire 1.9 million - 2 million years ago when Homoerectus first emerged. However, stronger scientific evidence shows at least 400 thousand years ago. Albeit, I understand we would have controlled wildfires before creating fire ourselves. I still firmly believe hominoids used and created fires themselves closer to 2 Million Years ago. The fact that we used stone tools suggests to me that we were able to make fire much sooner than some archaeology predicts.
Really good video! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 One tip: you need to balance the audio during editing. Increase the volume in the clips where it's low with the clips that are 'normal' volume. The part where you were showing the the vessel wet on the board, the volume was too low. I turned up the volume, in order to hear, but then when it cut to you facing the camera and talking, it about blew out my ear drums.
Nice, this was a very lucky find, I wish I had that same nodule again now that I've progressed ah well. Haha nice one buddy! It's hard to find really decent material anywhere but yeah. Keep at it! 🤙🏽💜
Gj 👍 I have made nettle cordage before and really interested in using different materials I watched a video earlier making it out of cedarwood tempted to try hazel as it is in abundance here, thanks for sharing your ideas and thoughts 👍👍
Ooh, looked like a chilly dip 🥶. We get a bit panicked when there is so much mud or reeds beneath the surface. Good on you for giving it a go! The stick rescue, if this isn't a wholesome activity we don't know what is 😂👌
It did to me when covered in batter and seasoning! Granted, not fresh of the tree unseasoned. Worth noting that leataporus sulphureus tastes very different when picked old, it usually tastes like chicken when young but can taste bitter and acrid when too old. Also worth noting what trees you pick it from as when picked on a yew tree it can absorb some of the alkaoids which can be semi toxic. Safe foraging and thanks for watching!
I have no idea why it was so cold this time. I must be out of practice it's never normally squeal territory, haha. Appreciate you watching and commenting 💜🤙🏽
