SOLO Kayaking Disaster - COLD & WET Overnight Survival Scenario 

An escape and evasion exercise. Get someone to chase you and try and catch you out in the forest.

$10 dollar store, kayak over night survival!

Simulate a serious injury like a broken ankle and how to survive alone and get back to civilization.

Great suggestions! Love them all!!!! Thanks you guys!

Kris Cavitt this is a popular one I have walked in a dollar store many times and just can't stay under 15 or 20 lol it's a rough one especially when it's in the low 20s at night here in wisco.

Awesome man! Glad you enjoyed it!

Awesome! Glad you found the channel and are enjoying the videos! There will certainly be more ;) Stay tuned!

That's awesome maple! Glad you are hooked, now Get Out There!!!!

Thankya Squatch! Glad you could take the time to enjoy it.

Yes! It was a great one!

Thanks Jon! I like the long form ones better as well.... Just wish I had more time and resources to go out and do more adventures.... One day....

Hey I actually have a question. What are some things that are needed for a trip like this. I have the basics like food, pots, hammock, etc but what else would you recommend to bring?

On what to bring, I'd start here on my Gear List video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f6AM_tyHqng.html Other than that its pretty much like normal camping just keep everything dry. Have fun!!!

***Best Comment Yet*** I laughed pretty good, thanks for that!Great one!

Thanks back, and joking aside, hypothermia can occur at much warmer temps than people think, stay safe. Great effort on your vids sir!!!

It sure was..... Glad you enjoyed the video!

You're welcome! Thanks for watching Timo!

Thanks! I appreciate you watching!

+Steve Germond Ha! Thanks Steve! I'll keep filming. Lots more older adventures to enjoy in the mean time if you haven't seen them already. I imagine I'll go back again and take my time exploring the cave!

It's a good one when the water is right.

Do it! Great stretch of river....

+Josh Wise Oh yea man, that one is certainly something to be proud of!

Thank you! I really appreciate the share casper, means a lot to me! You are 👍🤘✌

Haha! Well done! Better than some stuff you watch on TV these days.... Glad you took the time to watch, thanks!

Trip Smith, at 5 hours away, this looks totally worthwhile. If you ever venture to the east coast of Florida, check out the spoil islands in either Canaveral national seashore or the ones near Sebastian Inlet, good fishing and beautiful scenery and if you plan it right you get an awesome, ground shaking view of the rocket launches from Canaveral.

Thanks Jim, you're welcome!

Oh cool Pam! Glad the whole family enjoyed it, that means a lot to me.... And thanks a TON for the Like and Share!!! That's pretty powerful stuff ;) Yea, the GoPro was an unfortunate loss but oh well.... Have fun watching the rest, there are quite a few to catch up on ;)

Yea I had to get that thing back! lol

That would be pretty fun.... Interesting idea thanks!

Trip Smith you start doing stuff like that you’ll have your own online survival deal you’ll blow up bro!!

Trip Smith you’d be able to live off of doing this

You mean an exact copy of the TV show Dude, You're Screwed?

Glad to hear that Jason! You're welcome bud.

Glad you enjoyed it Seth! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment bud.

Thanks David! Take that spirit and Get Out There! Thanks for watching.

Thanks bud! It was blast and the river was amazing....

Thanks Robert! Well wait till you see the next "disaster what if" video.... I may not be wet but I should be cold in the next one! Going to be getting good! No telling what kind of ideas are going to continue to become even better videos!

Thankya Froggy! Glad you were able to watch it!

You dang right! Shew, it wouldn't be fun for it to happen for real lol

Thanks Henrik!!!

Glad you did GD! Thanks for subscribing and spread the word over the across the pond. Have fun Out There!

Glad you are finding the videos valuable William. ENjoy the future!

Thanks Andrew! I'll keep on keepin on bud!

It was a nice paddle for sure.....

Thanks Kevin!!!!!!

Hey thanks Paige! Glad you enjoy them ;)

It was a great paddle! Glad you enjoyed it.

+Jack Taylor Glad you enjoyed it Jack! I appreciate you taking the time to watch!

Thanks!!!! Happy to hear that!

THanks Jimmy! I appreciate you bud, glad you are enjoying the content!

Thanks Peter! Love hearing that bud. Best wishes back at ya!

Yes sir!!!! You are welcome!!!

I agree! Gorgeous! Can't wait to go back....

Thanks Brian for the kind words! Yep, I just Get Out There for sure! Amen, yes sir! I'll keep the cameras rolling and do my best to stay safe. Thankya!

Hehe, I was glad to see it to. Yea, didn't have good enough service to get a live stream going unfortunately. No word here on RU-vid, but Instagram and Facebook were a different story ;-)

I usually don't spend a lot of time on Facebook and never use Instagram, but I'm going to have to check on your next adventure!

Thanks Josh! Yea, it was good to get her in the water again.

Me to, it was nice to get her in the water again. Looks like a nice lake (just googled it). Maybe I'll get the opportunity to get up there one day if my channel can keep growing. You never know!

Much appreciated Paul! I really enjoy the clear water myself. Ha, well I kind of had a good idea that I would be ok so I went for it.... Props to your wife!!!!

Oh cool! Love hearing that! I really appreciate you sharing.... Powerful stuff ;)

Thanks Geo, you are very welcome. Good tips! Nah I didnt get sick ;)

Thanks Derek! It's certainly a great river to paddle.... They are only warmer in the winter when the rivers get colder. But I imagine yours up there are MUCH colder lol

Thankya! The caves are pretty cool and I hope to get to go back when the water is a bit warmer and swim in them. You've got it in you, time to Get Out There again!

Thankya Joe! Happy to hear you enjoyed it.

I agree! You never know what could happen...

Perfect! Don't hesitate! Go for it! Do it! Get Out There!!!!

I think I might have done that once or twice on this trip. I just use the simplest method in the moment. Thanks for the comment!

+Paula Mendoza It sure was Paula! Hope you can make it there sooner than later!

Haha! Finally I know! Glad you enjoyed it and the cold wasn't to bad once I got in the hammock....

I would have kept an emergency set of clothes and a blanket dry just in case I was getting hypothermia or something like like. But not wear it unless I really needed.

Nvm he did that

Yea, it's been gathering dust and deserved an adventure. Was glad I got her down. Thank you for watching and commenting!

Thanks for subscribing Ignas! There are plenty of adventures to catch up on. The next one though is coming later today or tomorrow. Going to be a good one!

Thanks my man! I'm enjoying narrating. I have several leashes but it can be dangerous using them in moving water. If you drop you paddle or flip it could get caught on a snag and the current could trap you. It's kind of a big no-no from my understanding.

Trip Smith yes I know that is something a person has to consider also. Just an interesting side note is that I have a Wilderness Solutions and a Kaku also. Different models though I have the Pungo 120 and the wahoo. I'm really liking that Kahuna you got.

Glad you enjoyed it Rose!

Haha! glad you enjoyed it!

It sure was! Thanks for watching!

That sucks about your camera. If you have to leave your yak somewhere, you can always put/organize the most valuable things into one bag and carry that bag on you at all times.

Yep, perfect timing! It was gorgeous. Yea, most of the time I do bring stuff with me... Oh well....

Thankya Joshua! I appreciate that my man.

That sounds pretty good to me! I like it! Adding that one to the list. Very cool! Thanks!

Here is a good video on the proper way of performing a wet exit ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-blJFzirv3-E.html Here are some good re-entry techniques ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4bupgSO1XBE.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-draZdyX4l-g.html I would recommend practicing these in a pool, lake, or pond close to shore first. Also, here is some gear to consider for this... NRS HydroSkin Jacket. This great because works wet or dry. It may even work better when wet. www.nrs.com/product/15037.02/nrs-mens-hydroskin-15-jacket In fact, any of the NRS HydroSkin stuff is outstanding for paddling... www.nrs.com/category/2574/men/hydroskin Paddle Float to aid with re-entry www.harmonygear.com/products/9733/Harmony-Blade-Aid-Paddle-Float.html Float bags help to fill any empty space in the boat which means less water for you to pump... www.harmonygear.com/products/9722/Harmony-Long-Float-Bag-Set-Vinyl.html I notice that you weren't really using water shoes so you ended up with wet shoes in the morning. I use a pair of Astral river shoes combined with some NRS HydroSkin socks and it is an amazing solution for warm and cool weather alike. www.astraldesigns.com/shop/footwear/unisex/hiyak www.nrs.com/product/30011.02/nrs-hydroskin-05-wetsocks Hope all this helps!

Oh wow! Great info and thanks for sharing the links! I'm checking out your suggestions. Thanks a ton!

Damn what some great all weather gear advice ... how much they payin' you LOL just kidding really nice share!

That is perfect! Glad to hear it!

Glad you enjoyed it Alan! You're welcome!

Awesome Reggie!!! Oh wow! Hope yall enjoy those trips! Two fabulous rivers. Love it down your way, I've spent a many of days on Merrits Mill Pond.... Get Out There!!!!

Yes sir Mike!

Glad you thought so!

No Problem! Enjoyed making it! It really is a beautiful area. Oh yea, I've been down spring creek several times... I'll keep filming!

Thanks!!!! Yep, that's why I tried to dry out my base layer after I got my main insulation dry (fleece) Interesting story and I'll have to check out Carhartt's stuff, thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks! Yea, I love being barefoot really... You need to! Get Out There!!!

THanks Ron! I'm sure having a good time my man. If I would have had a large rock face I would have been near it for sure. Unfortunately there weren't many large rocks around but I did take a few minutes and look for some for the exact reasons you mentioned. I guess I could have used some small ones though huh..... Thanks for the info Coach!

Yea I was testing a complete failure (lots of people out there don't have dry bags for all their gear and even if they do they may not seal them correctly. Plus it was a good fun test lol It wasn't cold that day but once the sun went down, it got chilly pretty quickly. I have trouble keeping up with all the messages I get and FB is the worst lol It's pretty difficult for me to navigate all the notifications I get there.... So I neglect it a bit for that reason which doesn't make it any easier.... Thanks for the great comment!

Hey thanks Gus! Just being me ;) Glad you enjoy the content!

Back at ya!

Hey Thanks Brittay! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks a TON for the share! #thanksfortheshare

Thanks Paul! Glad you enjoyed it.... Thanks for subscribing man! Great idea for a challenge! Oh yea, the scenery was quite nice that's for sure.... It was a good time of the year.

Sweet suggestions! I've got plans for 1 and 4 but haven't though of 2 and 3. Adding them to the list though! Thanks for the input my man. I really appreciate those ideas.

Will do! Working on it ;) Glad you enjoyed it!

Yes sir! Can't leave a fallen spork behind!

Thanks JPXL! Yes, work smarter! Glad you enjoyed it.
