Some good ideas, the pull matches etc are all pre camping or survival preperations that should be made prior to survival situations. The torch and plastic bag with water as a magnifying glass is a must try...
Pretty cool stuff here. I have never seen a coffee joint fire starter, ill admit, at one point I thought he was gonna snort his coffee, then I realized he was prepping it to be smoked. Is it me or does this guy carry an excessive amount of Vaseline on his camping trips? He seems to be alone, but who knows.... and let's be real, how many of us keep the childproof safety bar on our lighters? I know that's the 1st thing to go when I buy one. That pull start flare was cool, but like the other person here said, making that will raise some concerns with anyone you may be with and after seeing him unroll that rubber over it is probably gonna either have anyone your with leave immidiately, or they possibly may start haveing some impure thoughts about your intentions with it.
Many years ago I trained with stalking wolves grandson tom brown junior.tracking and survival skills. The Sacred order, Shelter, Fire, Water and food. Primitive skills.
The point of using the long matches is because there is more wood to burn as fuel. If you used shorter matches, this would burn for a much shorter period of time.
Congratulations on seeing these before, a lot of us (including myself) have not seen some of these so this video was pretty helpful and entertaining. Seeing different ways to do things could come in handy one day should any of us find ourselves in a situation where we can use some of these ideas. Almost everything on RU-vid has been done before, the point of posting videos is not always to be the 1st, but to get your message, or idea out into the world. Nowhere in his title did it say "1st time, New survival tips and tricks."
