Best method I ever saw. That technique made an ember twice as fast as the single rope method and with less effort. Simple, straight forward and looks to be easier technique to master. I am impressed and glad I watched this video.
I've never seen someone use such casual, relaxed timing when moving the hot drill produce into the fuel stock.... Which was damp, and then pull up a lovely flame in under one minute! Well done that man.
@@Yorkshiremadmick I am pretty sure Victorinox should really pay something to Felix. Myself bought Victorinox knife just because of Felix's videos :) I cannot be the only one.
I’m sure Vladimir there’s thousands of increased sales JUST because of Felix I’ve always had the classic for years. But admit I bought a Camper just because of one of his how to Videos 👍🏻
So simple and sensible but this is the first time I've see it done this way. You are a genius Felix! And best wishes for Vic putting some of your ideas into production.
I think I’ve come to the conclusion your channel is my favorite channel on TH-cam, Felix. I’m inclined to venture out into the woods tomorrow, risk poison ivy, snakes, and bears just to give the double rope bow drill technique a try.
i love you bro!! your happy attitude is always a welcome respite from the drudgery that is mundane human life! thanks foir sharing, this looks promising!!
This guy has the personality to be successful in anything. Very upbeat and funny and informative at the same time. He could be a successful stand up comic in the US.
Wow! This double rope technique looks to be far superior to the standard single rope technique. I'm definitely going to try this out. I'm surprised it's not more widely taught.
That is too awesome my friend! I really learned something valuable from this double bowstring video, and I really appreciate it. Also glad to hear about your possible upcoming opportunities with the Victorinox company!
Very impressive fire starter! I'm sure both Taro and Sepp would have approved of your technique! No doubt Victorinox has to know that you've been instrumental in the increase of sales for their products! Thanks for another great video!
Don't know how I missed this when it came out. I added the bow drill to my practical knowledge earlier this year. As I suspect others do as well, I struggle with the spindle shooting out under tension. I imagine this is precisely the fix I need. Thanks again for another great video!
'Dear Mr Victorinox; Get this man on your demonstration team immediately and pay him to go all round the world - he's the best promoter you've ever had!' P.S. - and make sure you give him a fair share of the increased profits!
This method should solve all the aggravation I too have with the one string method. I going to adopt this method. I think my bow drill attempts will involve many less curse words 😲
Wow, bin überrascht wie simpel als auch genial dieser trick ist.🤩 das ist für mich ein gamechanger, da genau die spindelstabilität mein grösstes problem darstellt😅 vielen dank felix du bist der hammer💪 liebe grüsse aus solothurn✌️
Thank you, Felix! Great technique and a very useful survival skill. Congratulations for the contact with Victorinox! Let´s hope they hire you as a consultant! Well done!
You really thought this one out. Nice one. And I've made friction fire a lot of times the "old" way. As others said, you should be the official Victorinox spokes person globally. Awesome, dude. Subscribed...
Als ich von ungefähr 5 Jahren diese Methode zum Feuerbohren von Buntbär gesehen hatte, hab ich es natürlich gleich ausprobiert, funktioniert wirklich Spitze.
Ich freue mich total dass das einen solchen Anklang gefunden hat. Jedes mal wenn jemand ein Video darüber macht freue mich mich und bin stolz wie Oscar. Vor allem wenn es jemand wie Felix immler ist. Und dann scrolle ich die Kommentare ob jemand mich erwähnt. Danke dafür! ☺ Ich glaube das Video hat mehr views als mein ganzer Kanal. 😅 Liebe Grüsse
Felix, This has to be the most important survival lesson I have learned. I will use this. Would you consider a video on getting drinking water in a survival situation and emergency shelter? Thank you, J D
Hey Felix, i saw this technique on your channel and i tried. This is way superior technique for me and most efficient one. Okay i have little thumb pain after i done it but it's way easier like this. Thank you for sharing this technique with us. Ps: first time i tried like you in crocs slippers and showed to my friends and everyone hated me... I don't why people don't like these slippers 😂
Mit dem kurzen Stecken sieht es fast so aus, als würdest Du eine Zigarre zum Qualmen bringen - ich hab schon gewartet, ob Du daran ziehst! 😁 Wieder mal ein super Tip, so hab ich das noch nie probiert, werde das aber nachholen, sobald es hier wieder trockener wird. Im Moment ist alles noch von Feuchtigkeit durchzogen, wir sind immer noch im Nachmonsun. Danke Felix, und liebe Grüße aus Bangalore, Robert
hi Felix awesome tip cant wait to try that here in a couple hours. Greg here in north florida ,your fast becoming my favorite youtube channel thanks alot.
Thank you for the entertainment, your books and your videos are helping me having great time during these complicated time, I am following your channel since the very beginning when you spoke german, I feel more witty and do hurt me less today thanks to the improvements I learned with you 👍👍👏👏
Dear Felix, you are my Victorinox hero. I am also from Switzerland and I am a big fan of Victorinox knifes. They are the best in the world. My favorite is the model "Huntsman" in Army style. And as I watched this video, I thought "never give up". As I was younger and I had problems, an owner of a Fitnesscenter told me this: NEVER GIVE UP. This is since then also my mentality in every difficult situation in my life. So I send to you greetings from 🇨🇭to 🇨🇭and to anybody in the 🌍🌎🌐, who loves VICTORINOX knives like I do.. 😜😎. Stay safe. Love.
Great variation on the age old technique! I haven't seen that anywhere before and it looks much simpler than the traditional bow drill for the reasons you mentioned. Thanks for sharing!
@@FelixImmler Awwwww! Thanks Felix. I love your vids as well, I have been watching and learning from you for a long time. Always amazed that you create all these projects with your SAK! I hope to be half as good as you one day!
Outstanding modification to the typical bow drill string. Looks like it also provides better friction on the spindle. Your modification on the chinching toggle is fantastic. I am using it on both my tarp and ground bedroll set up.
Wieder mal ein super Trick mit der Doppel Schlaufe ...und man muss es ja nicht mal mehr direkt befestigen ...Toll...werde ich ausprobieren.....Hatte ich so noch nicht gesehen...oder besser gesagt ausgeführt .....DU wirst so langsam mein Spezialisierter Survivalist ...sonst sieht man in den ganzen TH-cam Videos immer fast ( fast ) das Gleiche ...super das du dort heraus stichst .....vielen Dank dir.....FELIX ; )))))
So cool trix Felix! I will try this method. I only use natural cordage for my drill so this can help preserve it a little longer! Big thanks. Great video.
Awesome! I really like the way that you don't have to tie the string off on both ends. I also like the simple way that you tied the constrictor knot. I can't wait to try this bow drill technique. Thank you!
Hallo Felix, ich bin zwar Tenkara-Fischer und kein Feuerbohrer, aber diese Technik werde ich auch mal versuchen. Vielen Dank für's Zeigen und ganz liebe Grüße aus Oberösterreich in die Schweiz!

Thank you so much!
Still a magical experience no matter how many times you see it done.
That's true!!
If Victorinox start putting bearings in their scales... wow. That would be amazing.
Yes, that would be great!
@@FelixImmler Don’t forget you need a cut of their sales on any bearing sak!
Say 10% 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I use the single rope method. That’s what I learned as a kid. I think this old dog has learned a new trick! Thanks Felix!
Haa ha haaa, thanks a lot!
So simple and sensible but this is the first time I've see it done this way. You are a genius Felix! And best wishes for Vic putting some of your ideas into production.

Easily one of the most awesome channels on TH-cam. Contagious
I have been intimidated by the bowdrill, but this looks like something that could work for me. Thank you for sharing what you have learned.
Good luck!!!
This was the first time I had ever seen anyone use a double rope drill. Makes alot of sense, thank you very much for showing this technique, Felix.
i love you bro!! your happy attitude is always a welcome respite from the drudgery that is mundane human life! thanks foir sharing, this looks promising!!
First time I've seen this technique. Walked outside tried it, work like a charm.. Thank you keep up the good work..

did it work?
Thank you, Felix. Your videos are simple to understand. By the way, I really like the cloth basket you kept the grass in.
Thanks a lot Terry!
This technique makes a bow drill EASY work for most people !!
It's always a good thing to know more than one way to do something. That's a good option.
Thant's true! Thanks a lot for your comment!
Fantastic genius ideas and very entertaining delivery. Binge watching now.
Awesome, thank you!
Very impressive fire starter! I'm sure both Taro and Sepp would have approved of your technique! No doubt Victorinox has to know that you've been instrumental in the increase of sales for their products! Thanks for another great video!
Thank you very much dear Jack!
The joy of making fire from sticks :D Great idea on the double line. It looks good. Nice one.
Thanks a lot for your feedback!

Thanks a lot John. The support from Vic is allready fantastic!
And every Victorinox knife model he wants! And put him on your R&D team too.
I wrote to Victorinox months ago and said the same thing . It's cool that they actually replied to all mail and You Tube comments .
is there a Victorinox - Felix Immler edition planned? can I get an email notification upfront so I will be the first to order it?
Completely agree... I will be writing them soon
OMG. Never saw this technique before. I know what I'm doing this weekend.
Super . Thank you Erik!
This method should solve all the aggravation I too have with the one string method. I going to adopt this method. I think my bow drill attempts will involve many less curse words 😲

Tried that technique and instantly became in this method. Thanks for this improvement of my skills!
Cool how now Felix was involved in a new Victorinox model. Back when this was posted people were emailing them about Felix’s ideas!
Your are right :-D Thank you!
Félix sos un genio!👏👏👏 un gran abrazo desde Argentina!🇦🇷
Muchas gracias!
Sehr sehr gut lieber Felix, tolle Leistung, vor allem in den schweren La S Gebirges Ziegen Verfolgungs Stiefeln! Bravo mein Freund!
Haaa ha haaaa, da hast Du Recht. Sind wohl etwas überdimensioniert für die Feuerstelle um die Ecke 😃😃😃
I was imagining something like this as I also found the one string problems and using natural cord also. So great to see this. Thank you
Thank you, Felix! Great technique and a very useful survival skill. Congratulations for the contact with Victorinox! Let´s hope they hire you as a consultant! Well done!
Many thanks Rafa!!
You're amazing and I salute you and all the people you learned these tips and tricks from.

What a brilliant idea, all the survival videos I have seen (100+), they only use the singe rope bow saw, thank you
Simply brilliant thinking💡
Thank you!
You are such a genius I can not wait to get out there and try the technique if I could make a friction fire with sticks I would be SO happy
Yes.. go for it!
Felix! That's the fastest fire ever, by far! Many thanks to you and Taro.
Thanks a lot for your nice feedback!
Mit dem kurzen Stecken sieht es fast so aus, als würdest Du eine Zigarre zum Qualmen bringen - ich hab schon gewartet, ob Du daran ziehst! 😁
Wieder mal ein super Tip, so hab ich das noch nie probiert, werde das aber nachholen, sobald es hier wieder trockener wird. Im Moment ist alles noch von Feuchtigkeit durchzogen, wir sind immer noch im Nachmonsun.
Danke Felix, und liebe Grüße aus Bangalore, Robert
Danke mein lieber Freund. Liebe Grüsse nach Indien!

Thanks a lot for your valuable support!
