In about 1982 at the age of 15 I bought a copy of the SAS survival handbook and a First aid book both published by Collins in the UK. They became my secular bibles and I used them to learn all I could. I used to go out with mates for 2 or 3 nights at a time with minimal kit and basically live rough this lead to hiking and hunting. Fast forward to late 1985 I joined British Airborne forces and I was one step ahead throughout my training with my scouting knowledge, shooting and wild camping. I then eventually got to train with Mr. Wiseman and I was too embarrassed or awestruck to actually thank him. 20 years later I left the military but continued to enjoy wild places from the Mohave to the Highlands of Scotland and always carry my survival kit. Great work young Ranger. 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸

A little tip I've learned for storing cotton wool/vaseline is to pack it into the sort of wide bore plastic straws that you get in coffee/smoothie shops and such. Prepare the tinder and pack it into the straws, cut to length for the size of tin you have, then heat seal the ends to prevent leakage/water ingress. Ideal for all sorts of kits. Simply cut it open to use. The added bonus is that the straw itself will burn quite hot.

@the_once-and-future_king. Год назад

Seal the ends with beeswax or candle wax. Burns nicely and lasts longer to really get the kindling going.

Excellent Andrew! The SAS Survival Handbook is a really good manual. It’s relatively small size makes it easier to pack or even put into a 1-gallon zip lock bag and kept in your cargo pocket. You must have found the only workable wire saw!! I'm glad that you mentioned using modern items to enhance the kit at the end. Best Glide makes great kits, I always carry one of their military pocket kits in my cargo pocket. As well as the Best Glide advanced adventurer survival kit in my truck go bag, it is a really good modern version of Lofty's kit.

Awesome talk today Andrew!!! Wiseman’s SAS Survival Book (the big book, not the pocket edition) was my first “real” survival book. The challange I had as a young man was trying to find Potassium Permanganate and the Beta light (remember kids, this was pre-internet in the late 80’s)…nowadays we have great alternatives to those items. I actually found a vendor that has the British Pattern 58 SAS escape and evasion pouch that Lofty illustrated in his book, had to buy it! I had a surplus Dutch aluminum mess tin, but recently picked up a stainless steel Danish mess tin (same configuration, just ss) keeping with the Pathfinder principals of have a strong container. Keep up the fire!!!

Few suggestions. I always spray paint in bright colours any survival kit so that you can see it easily if you drop it on the ground eg I do not like the black whistle in the kit. Another thing is if you are going to drink hot liquid out of a metal mess tin put a small piece of gaffer tape on the edge. That way you won’t burn your mouth. I prefer not to stick anything on the inside lid of the survival tin so that you can use it as a signalling mirror. Lastly I was impressed by wrapping stuff like razor blades in gaffer tape- great idea!

Another thing tea bags (black tea) are really good for … stopping bleeding. Just hold against the bleeding surface, and let the acid in the tea do its magic. Learned that in the ER when I had a tongue bleed that would not stop. (Yes, weird to go to the ER for a bleeding tongue, but you do what you have to do - lol)

@wernesgruder1 6 месяцев назад

A sheet of tin foil over the mess tin will cut boiling times. Or cut a lid from the thin metal used for biscuit tins. In wet conditions you can use it for the base of a fire. Pile tinder on top and it stops moisture wicking up from the ground. Very lightweight and thin so no burden to carry

@jaimiehardy5652 2 года назад

Great video as ever. One thing we were taught in Basic (British army) was to break the hexi block on your knee/rock/mates head, and spread the blocks slightly on the stove..increases surface area, easier to light and increases heat. We'd always dig in our stoves too for light discipline. Keep up the good work.

@muskett4108 2 года назад

Nice content. Lofty Wiseman based much of his survival on an infantry soldier's waist belt order. This would have a mess kit with 24 hrs rations, water bottle, medical kit, poncho, among other stuff like ammunition. Knife was bayonet or possibly supplemented with a Golock. Minimalist kit was in pockets and hidden within clothing. Basically much of the contents found in a Survival Tin, just without the tin. Escape and Evasion comes in two ways: not being captured and escaped POW. The latter you would be lucky to have a toothbrush. Lofty wrote his book so people would practice the techniques. From that knowledge, even with no kit, then at least people have an idea. Loads of people have no idea. Which is reason people should watch your channel. Having some kit is sooo much better than having nothing. Why I always have a SAK in my pocket. Going on an adventure in the wilds then carry enough in your head and on you to stay out the night at least, for you might not plan to, but might have to.

@MrWhite-ip9hw 2 года назад

With our armed forces relying heavily on drones these days, combined with cutting training programs like the pathfinder school. It's a great relief to this old Marine, these practices are being kept alive by our veterans. There's no school like the old school. Great video as always.

@larss337 2 года назад

Good video! One small thing, no criticism but a tip. When using the ferro rod, hold the knife still over what you want to ignite. If possibly rest the blade against something to steady it. Then pull the ferro rod against you. This way the sparks fall where you want them. Practice this a bit and it's quite easy.

@wishiwasamuffin 2 года назад

I was so happy when you correctly pronounced "Fresnel lens" as "frenell". I spent 12 years in the theater industry (backstage tech), and we were a nonprofit, so we'd get these old dinosaur lights as donations when other theaters chuck them. So we'd get maybe 20 lights and wind up with like 12 "new" ones, butchered from their brethren. We used a light called a Fresnal. It's pronounced "frennel". It was a huge success as a type of lens to use for stage lights, in their heyday. It's the amazing way they focus light. Sometimes people would hang their curtain right in front of a Fresnel, and it'd cook right through. Thank God for flame-retardant stage curtains lmao Also, potassium permagranate is used is small doses in the aquarium hobby. Before you add a new plant or rock from a different environment, you whip up some purple water, dip the plant underwater for a few seconds, rinse it off in the sink, and then put it in fresh de-cloronated water. Chlorine kills fish breathing it in just as effectively and horribly as if we inhaled it.

Many many moons ago in officer cadet training, we were told to break camp immediately with no weapons / kit. I have always carried a Swiss Army Knife in my uniform pockets together with a lighter. 2 hours later we were debriefed about immediate response with grab & go pouches. You can have the best kit with 3 knives, but it will be useless if you abandoned it. It those days we wore the '58 Pattern pouches / belt kit. 1 Dixie (cooking pot) can hold most of your gear & double as cooking / water boiling system.
