General outdoor adventure. No over the top outlandish spectacles, just a guy who enjoys the outdoors and all things related to that. Mainly camping and associated tools, some general woodsmanship, marksmanship, building/fabricating things and a little hunting and cooking every now and then.
The material shown is Tule Reed, or Bulrush. There are similar plants and reeds that grown in wetlands and marsh areas all over the world. If not thicker grasses or other shrubbery can be used in the same fashion. This shelter is modeled after the "debris shelter" taught in most basic survival courses and books, using what is available.
He was almost 10 degree's warmer but it would feel 30 degree's warmer at least if there was even a 10 mile an hour wind, so depending on the details this is a great bit of info from a super nice guy to listen to. Thanks!
I was going to say the only however there is plenty of bad about this however the worst that I could think of besides freezing to death would be a four-wheeler running me over
when i was homeless i learned to wear Walmart bags over my socks in my boots, and stuff my pants and coat with Walmart bags or newspaper. i believe it works on the same premise
For my bros in the southeast, same principle can be applied in winter time with dry grass or leaves. Especially if you have a trash bag or a tarp. Stuff it with leaves and grass and crawl in it like a burrito
Probably not, but I have to work with what is out here. Luckily there are not many bears or wolves out here. I suppose in a long term situation one could make a shelter from stacked rocks.
I've been so blessed that I never found myself in this weather. But if I do, watching your video has taught me how to survive. Thank you for sharing. Jehovah bless you. I live in Sunny California.
A week ago, I got caught in a snowstorm while hiking in the mountains. I was way off the trail, completely unprepared for how fast the snow piled up. The temperature dropped, visibility was basically zero, and I realized I was in serious trouble. I had no signal, and no shelter, and I could feel the cold getting worse by the minute. Then I remembered this video I watched god knows when. I followed everything you said with extra and buried myself into the nest for the night. The next day, once the storm had passed and visibility improved ('cause I could not sleep more than half an hour), I was able to find my way back to the trail and make it to safety. If I hadn’t seen your video, I wouldn’t have made it through that night. You honestly saved my life and I can not thank you enough!
Ive seen alot of primitive survival videos based on shelter so im suprised this is how I discover the grass burrow... Also we dont need warmth in Florida.
incredible video and so many wonderful life saving lessons learned here in this one video wowwwwwwwww... thank you so much for saving peoples lives, thank you. Great job to help people build SHELTER to stay alive, wonderful!
The shelter is the Seek Outside Little Bugout, shown is just one half, it has another piece that zips to it and there is an extension you can add between the two making it a 4 man tent. Unfortunately I dont think they make it any more but they have other similar shelters.
4:35 what do you want it to do hang an elephant? survival is about functionality not feelings if they replaced the bottle hanger they can put in a better replacement.
These kits are not "survival" or "emergency" kits, they are junk. They are designed at a price point to include as many items as possible to appeal to the unsuspecting buyer. Most of the included items are trinket toys or will fail on first use and certainly do not hold up to the suggested uses they are advertised as on the sales page. I bough these kits to counter all the 5 star reviewers who are given these for free or paid to promote them hoping people will consider buying real gear instead of this counterfeit junk.
