We don't cover all of the possibilities in the video, but here we get you started on some of them. #uncivilizedvitality #outdoorsurvival #...

    No, this is NOT how you split kindling unless you have 6000 years to do so and NO ONE does so. This is how an old man babysits kids soaking up time and teaching some useless thing which teaches hand eye coordination along with leverage.

      Start with you own crumb crunches, if you have them. Or, the easiest way to teach others is volunteer with scouts. They always need more help. Many of us seize opportunities with friends & family youth to teach them cool things when we're around them. They always jump at it when we ask them if they want to start a fire, learn to use a knife, or build a shelter with a tarp.

    Dr Morey what do you think about not wearing things on the neck area as a way of increasing brown adipose tissue so that you will stay warmer when you have more BAT? This is recommended by the quantum health world.

    • @DrMorey-zk4nx
      @DrMorey-zk4nx 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The actual physical production of BAT is a longer process than people generally realize. Cold exposure is a sure way of doing it but one must be prepared for a lengthy (and sometimes unpleasant) process of "growing" that BAT through repeated and consistent cold weather exposure. Short term and partial-measures like exposing the neck only, in my experience, are only good for mild sufferings. 😂 For realistic BAT development, I suggest FULL cold exposure under supervision or a winter's worth of gradual cold exposure. We can cover this topic more at one of the upcoming Monthly meetings if there is interest.

    Nice video, but your ready position of the stick behind your head, etc is not viable. Just adds more distance to travel for blocking or striking! I have been practicing arnis since 1974. Have never seen this until recently on this and other videos. Thanks!

    • @uncivilizedvitality
      @uncivilizedvitality 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      This position is the result of real world, practical applications which will preclude the attempts of an opponent grabbing the stick. It also gives plausible defense of any "ill" intentions of the stick wielder. Thank you for your comment!

  • @kurtbaier6122
    @kurtbaier6122 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Never warn someone verbally that you will cause them bodily harm or death, as it may be considered to be an assault, but do say stay back. Their giving off threat cues plus your verbal command to stay back will put them in legal jeopardy if they advance toward you. Impromptu weapons such as wasp spray, flashlight or stick, and knife will be treated in the same way as the use of a legal weapon, such as OC or CS spray, baton, or handgun. The Force that you use, must be a reasonable response, and not exceed the amount of force being used against you. There are some exceptions when there is a disparity of force being used against you, but usually that has to do with multiple attackers. So, Initially using a baton as an impact weapon against someone near your size would be considered excessive, but if you can’t leave and the attacker won’t stop attacking you, then use a big flashlight, stick, or a baton to strike at whatever is inbound to hurt you, such as, fists, feet, knees, shin, forearm or elbow. The head, neck, spine, solar plexus, and groin, are off limits unless lethal force is being used against you. Remember you may not be charged criminally but you still can be sued and loose.
