I wasn't the first to do this and I sure as heck didn't execute it the best either but I got it done and cooked a chicken out in the bush all by my lonesome.
my thermometer said to cook the chicken to 185

Xander, my favorite type of yours: • Long 30-45 mins. • Solo. • Half chatting & half nature / music sounds. Now add - Trying new techniques. 😃👍🏼 You rock, man.

I’m impressed, great episode. Love that you brought a meat thermometer.

This was one of my favorite episodes ever. I love the long trips and I seriously do love longer videos but this was different. The music, the scenery and the water this is like my heaven. Beach at sunset, fire by a river ❤

Man it's satisfying to see the forces of nature work for you. GOOD call bringing a meat thermometer. PSA: Some said Xander didn't share his food last trip. He may be a gluttonous pig....but he's also very generous about sharing...not everything makes the video :)

Xander truly is an inspiration. When most people get bored, they usually look for a movie they haven't seen or think about heading into town for a night out. This guy just says "I bet I can MacGyver the fuck out of some sticks and bark so I can cook a rotisserie chicken on this random river bank."

@Vrizey 2 года назад

Dude as a 22 year old heroin addict you made me realize there are different ways of living that can still be fulfilling. I'm still an addict but living and experiencing nature as it was intended to be somehow seems more appealing than another shot of dope and I hardly ever feel that way about anything. One day I hope I can truly change and experience real life like you do in these videos. Its inspiring man for real just gotta somehow get through withdrawal the hardest thing I've ever tried to do. I'm thinking about going camping for a week and just toughing it out with nature but id probably give up after a few days knowing that sweet relief is just one shot of dope away :(

@pakoralad6322 2 года назад

Awesome video! One thing I just wanted to say to keep people safe is that people shouldn’t use stones from a river when making a fire, as if the stones have cracks/holes and have water inside, the fire turns it to steam which can cause the rocks to explode and can be quite dangerous! Much love from the UK!

He is a Swedish modern day bush crafter with ingenious ideas and his videos are movie quality. He also has some banging food/meals! I really think you’d like his channel. Keep having fun young man. You are very inspirational and I can’t get enough of your (impressive) food Ideas.

Xander Budnick - I'm from Russia and I watch you all the time. Turn on the subtitles, I don't know English! Thanks to the subtitles, I'll watch the video twice! The first - I enjoy the picture, the second - I try to have time to read what you say, and you speak quickly! ))) And you are very similar in appearance and habits to the actor "Alexander Skarsgård" (colbert) from the series "Generation Kill" At 9:43 I got goosebumps all over my body and then I started crying. It was so long awaited! I've been waiting for this moment ever since the video "3 Days Solo Survival with No Food and Basic Gear" (from 10:34). But I have been watching that video and the flight regularly, every week for almost a year now! This is aerobatics!

I knew you were a bad ass, but this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen in the wilderness. Rotisserie chicken tip: take that thing off the fire when it reads 160 degrees (measured in the thickest part of the breast). Let it rest for 5 plus minutes and it will be done and perfectly moist. Enjoy your videos brother!
