I stopped watching television when it all went digital. And we don't even have an antenna here any more, so I haven't seen Season 3 of Alone. I have really enjoyed watching your reenactments here on TH-cam. Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and your skills with everyone.
Just realized after I hit share that I forgot one clothing item. We were allowed a handkerchief or a shimoga I chose the shimoga because they are much bigger. And you can strip fibers out of it to use for other stuff
My biggest gripe with Alone is that they never showed enough of what everybody did in their camps for the first few nights / first week. they end up showing the 'second' shelter that usually ends up being bigger and better. But i always wanted to see the camp life evolution at the camps. Glad you're doing this recreation. can't wait for episode 3.
These 1st 2 videos are kind of technical And not an accurate representation of what the rest of the series will look like. After the 3rd one about the hacks I did to my gear It will be more just about the making stuff
I am recently getting into bushcraft. I'm not very good but am eager to learn. I have baught a bush craft axe. And Some paracord. A fire stater. And compass. Fishing line and a couple hooks.. matches. I even hope to get my own TH-cam channel up and running....sorry I'm rambling lol
I need to know whatvis Adobo spice you use Please help me I've tried to figure it out for a year now . is it like the stuff we get in stores or close? I love mine just so curious ?
If you know to make the Kochanski supershelter tarp shelter as a double-walled assembly, with a 2x2x2 ft pit just inside of the entranceway, and it will be at least 30F degrees warmer in the 4x4x7 ft shelter, than outside and the wind will not be a factor. I would not even bother with taking the sleeping bag, since a raised wooden bed and lots of debris would suffice. I mean, what can you do inside of a dark old shelter, full of smoke, anyway? The clear vertical side of the supershelter will let in light and you wont be choking on smoke. You can have hot rocks under the bed, and the one way projected heat of a Siberian fire lay can be "aimed" at that clear side, from a safe 6 ft away, and the radiant heat will pass thru the clear PEVA shower curtain layers and be trapped inside of the shelter. Of course, your body heat will be trapped, too. There's no need of the axe and saw, cause you wont be processing more than 3 cords of wood in 100 days. Just take the E tool with 8" of saw edge. This knowledge will save you 2 months of messing around with a shelter that isn't warm and firewood processing that you don't need to do. If you get even 2 inches of snow, you can make the far superior igloo, which keeps you 50F degrees warmer than the outside temps. and can be made in one day. All you have to do is pack 3-4" of snow onto a tarp-covered brush pile. Sprinkle water onto the snow, creating a crust, and then repeat 2 more times. Knock a hole in the snow, withdraw the branches and the tarp, and voila, igloo.
So strange. You are, by far, my favorite TH-cam and survivalist. I've watched every episode of the 30 day challenges.. But I'm just now realizing I have t watched this series in its totality! And awaaay we goo!!
Thank you. I was/am most interested in the clothing choices. Quick drying seems to be a godsend. And those socks... A 'lifetime' guarantee on socks?! I gotta get me some of those.
Yep, Darn Tough are one of the most popular socks among long distance hikers. It's my go to socks as well. The Merino blend makes it odor resistant as well like Fowler said so it's pretty ideal.
I have one pair of darn tough socks and I love them. I would like to try a pair of farm to feet socks just as a comparison between the two. I kind of hike... LOL. I have a backpack, my son has one, we both love hanging in the trees in our hammocks. The issue is that I have a rare muscle/autoimmune disorder I've been fighting since 2009 and my hikes are not "long distance" by any stretch of the imagination. So maybe hiking would be more like trail camping, LOL. My first merino wool socks was a gander mtn brand and they don't hold a candle to the darn tough ones.
really interesting to hear you talk about how you did things, you are the first guy from the show, who actually break down in detail what you did, what i know about, i just hope you can get more viewer, fredde
hobbexp ya thanks I think the views will come when I start getting into making and doing all the stuff Buddy has ever seen before. Those will be the kind of posts that people find share worthy
I concur! Darn Tough Socks are the Bomb! It's the only sock I wear...rain or shine. Summer winter. They just work. I haven't worn any out yet....going on 3 years on 10 pairs. When I do wear them out, I will send them in for new ones. They are lifetime unconditional guaranteed.
hey I really like your knowledge and survival capabilities. I think your doing great on the videos as long as you teach the rest of us how you survived and this is the key for a successful channel. I subscribed and hope you make more videos on surviving
I love this series. It's really cool to see more of what you did than what was on the actual show. I like the hack you did with your L.L. Bean and the suspenders. I have never felt as staffing your jacket into the sleeve for a pillow. That is pretty cool. I usually take my down jacket and put it in its stuff sack and use it for a pillow
Why didn't you make something you could sit up in? I can tell from experience about 30 years ago when I wiped out on the Aniak river in Alaska in my nautiraid packer kayak and losing my tent body in the process, what I did for the rest of the trip was every night build a tepee structure over my boat. And took the rain fly and covered the driftwood poles which were numerous. Anyway, what turned out to be a real asset in building the teepee frame work was I has some 36" and 48" fastex buckles straps. I don't remember if they were 1" or 3/4" wide. I think I had 4 of them. I used those to quickly wrap around the poles at the top. And over the teepee framed I draped my rainfly and laid some other poles on top of the rainfly to keep it from flapping in the howling wind. It was early October, and ice had formed on my tent before my turn over the night before. I laid down one of my waterproof Sealine pvc bags in front of the side of the kayak and could sit on that beneath the shelter and cook, leaning back on the side of the kayak, for comfort. And for sleeping, I laid down in the Kayak and sleeping bag on top of me and sides - and on top of that my .375 H&H rifle. Well, it took me about 3 days down the river from there to get to Aniak, the village to get fly back to Anchorage. btw, my video camera, was in a waterproof pelican case - when I opened it, it was completely full of water. I also had some screw-on clear plastic jars - which I used to keep my fishing lures in, spinners, and guess what? Those jars kept my fishing lures perfectly dry..... ha! ha! ha! Joke was on me. Although I wasn't laughing about the $1200 dollar ruined video camera.
Hey just stumbled across your channel. I look up your alone episode and didn't even recognize you. You lost so much weight and you look so much better. Cheers mate
Thanks for the detailed information! I was wondering what clothes was allowed since nobody ever went into it. The show focused on the 10 items a lot but clothes is pretty darn important.
At the end of season two that one guy fell in the water and said he got all his clothes wet and I was so confused if he really was wearing everything or what. Clothes definitely forced him to tap out at such a critical moment.
Ya they didn't have as many cloths in season two because they didnt need winter stuff so i belive a lot of them were waring most of what they had all the time.
That a an amazing gear list. I doubt I could have done that good with gathering up quality clothing..:( I liked that they let you guys have some decent light boots this time.
Fowler's Makery and Mischief Hey, I was rewatching episode before this last one and I noticed something. Have you figured out why Ted stopped catching fish in his gill net?
Fowler's Makery and Mischief Hey so remember I defended the Wipples on bringing the bar of soap. Yeah I don't know if I'm still there. I say that because I don't think they brought a gill net?????? And I caught that Jim and Ted are 36 and 35 years old. They looked younger. But from the previews, one gets really sick, and if it's Ted, I bet they tap since he may not be as motivated to stay. I did like how Jim chased off the cougar. That was cool.
Great video! Good to see the clothes you brought. A bitt different that what we needed for Vancouver Island, so especially interesting to see. Thanks! :-).
Less gear since it wasn't as cold. One base layer, one pair of gloves (we did get a pair of warmer gloves around day 50 or so...could've been earlier), one hat only, no sweaters at all (one given when we got the gloves). Very different environment...though it got down to freezing temps - it was that raw wet cold. I found that my overbuilt shelter (3' thick on all 4 sides and on top...and the same for my bed thickness) were key..that and bringing in hot rocks at night to warm my shelter. Once I shut the door the shelter warmed up fast. Without the warm shelter to retreat to it would've been super cold.
Hi Nicole. I've been impressed with how well you and some of the other ladies have done. It's sad that they only found room for one woman this season. Still, I suspect that Brooke and Dave Whipple will either win or place highly. I was also impressed by the knives that you and Megan from season 3 chose. If a person only has one knife, it should be a big knife. *Smiles*
Thanks so much! I loved my knife choice...worked so well for me. I didn't even use my axe :-). Thanks again for the kind words...I am hopeful they will have more women back on for future seasons.
Very cool I'd love to have Everybody that's been out there Make guest appearances If you're ever up in the area or at the same place we will have to do an episode together. Somebody asked me if it would be 87 episodes longAnd I said no butWho knows
wow! they allow more clothes than i think i have! sucks being poor. i only have 1 pair of boots and they're falling apart after just 6 months. people have literally given me jackets before.
great video. Really fun to watch. Keep em up! If requests are being taken: It`d be nice if by clicking the next button we could just see the next video in this series `87 Days` instead of something else. Just a thought. Still love the vids.
The higher up the drier up Nice. My wife and I watch Alone. We call it slow starvation for 1/2 a million. We hike a little and its fun to see / learn the differences in mentality and gear. Did you have the choice of extra rations as one of the ten items? Also do you know of anyone who has tried to get - find or cultivate yeast? If one could choose flour as an extra food choice and get some "friendship" bread going. Seems like a way to extend / maximize calories. I know everyone is a winner / expert on the comfortable couch.
9:30 = Put some of that N6500 Glue on it ~ PROBLEM Solved. I do Armed Bike Patrol & have a pair of Black New Balance shoes that I've had for 5 yrs or more that I rotate among 3 other pair & at this point those shoes are basically all Glue (LOL!!). I;d throw them away but they are so comfortable & still functional = That Glue is the bomb for repairs like that.
when you knew to keep your coals buried in ashes, why waste a pick on a ferrorod? you. used it 3x. You can fire roll a 2"x8" strip of the shemagh in 2 minutes or less. All that's required is that you sand off the paint from the shovel, rust it heavily with coatings of iodine and then use the rust as an accelerant when fire-rolling.the strip of cloth. Since the shemaugh is 3x3 ft of cotton cloth. Anyways, the main thing to use for fire rolling is ashes. So, once you have the first fire, there's no more need of rust or using the shemaugh strips. You can use fibrous plants on site, or make charred material and use any carbon steel tool and any hard, sharp rock to get fire. You can also make a big pump drill in 1/2 a day. With some copper electrical wire, (part of your "snare wire) the duct tape" , some lint scraped from your shemagh, and the camera battery. So there's. 4 easy ways to make fire. and you only need to do it ONCE. So what makes the ferrorod "essential", hmm?
Nice informative video sir! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Were your North Face pants the Paramount 3.0 version. I have two pair ,I love them but not sure about durability , especially 87 days.
Cool Video. When I set up tarps I like to use taught line hitches, they are easy to untie and allow me to easily tighten things later if needed.. For long underwear I love smartwool. I've done some long hunting trips that I spent the entire time wet and they have always kept me warm.
fowler, have you thought about getting an amazon store? takes pretty much no work from you other than picking items off amazon. it gets fullfilled by them and you get a small portion.
Gained a little bit back since we bought the house Just because we stop eating keto for a little while Causing yo-yo diet effect But we went back to eating ketogenic And lost 8 pounds in two weeks. So if I ever have to go out on a show againI'll have to do is eat pizza .
I'm late to this party as I just discovered Alone a few weeks ago on Netflix (haven't had cable for 10 years). Sorry if I missed it, but I didn't see a description of your crosscut saw. Was it a Curtis model? Did you use your multi-tool to sharpen it? Can you talk (or point me to where you've talked previously) about that saw and how often you had to sharpen it? If you had it to do over again, would you use the same saw? Why or why not? Thanks. Really enjoyed Season 3. I'm just starting on Season 4, but so far Season 3 has been my favorite. The duration and creativity was most impressive.
So in the show Alone season 3 episode, "Making the cut", at about 40:15, Colecracker is getting on the helicopter he has suspenders on that don't look to be sewn on. I wonder how he got away with that?
There was actually debate about that they tried to make Him take them off. But I spoke up and said that bogus I've suspenders And Mine are sown on. "he should be allowed to take his" They called Production And decided to keep his suspenders.
Well. I just spoiled myself on the winner of season 3 but that’s okay, i was looking to see if Pantagonia was really as harsh as the tv show made it seem. Why some days you guys had fish but other days you didn’t? Was there anything else in the wild that could have been sustaining you like Rabbits? Squirrels? Birds? If the predators were sustaining themselves there then surely the human could, is my philosophy. Then again i am no survival expert, just very curious :) I also want to say congratulations on the win and hardwork and i hope you are alive and well.
Can you make a video about what you need for backpacking since my dad thinks it will cost in the 5,000 dollar range per person and I want to prove him wrong so yeah
saving 300 hours of shelter making and wood processing leaves lots of time for making netting. It only takes one day to make the pontoon outrigger raft, and a day to make the rope. How long did it take too make the fishing dock and all the steps and handrails? :-) So you could have done 10x better if you'd done a bit more research. You are NOT going to homestead. They will never let the show go 4 months, much less a year. It would cost them a ton of money and offer them almost do benefit to do so.
a lil late to say something but it dont surprise me with that fire steal, i had the same prob with it. i tested it out at home 1st (just in case never know how good china cheap shit is and i tried 70 times and never lighted a fire in my back yard. it barley shot of sparks and it seemed to not be even close to hot enough t start anything sadly enough.
I just don't have the ability to make longer stuff just yet but i may try coming up in a month or so when the shelter is done and i do some staying there for a few days.
Three years and he’s still replying and hearting comment. What a legend keep it up dude more people look up to you then you think
except this one lol
I stopped watching television when it all went digital. And we don't even have an antenna here any more, so I haven't seen Season 3 of Alone.
I have really enjoyed watching your reenactments here on TH-cam.
Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and your skills with everyone.
Just realized after I hit share that I forgot one clothing item. We were allowed a handkerchief or a shimoga I chose the shimoga because they are much bigger. And you can strip fibers out of it to use for other stuff
Fowler's Makery and Mischief I might’ve missed it in the video, but what sleeping bag did you use?
@@jacobcree4638 He says that in the first one.
Who made the rules up..?
My biggest gripe with Alone is that they never showed enough of what everybody did in their camps for the first few nights / first week. they end up showing the 'second' shelter that usually ends up being bigger and better. But i always wanted to see the camp life evolution at the camps. Glad you're doing this recreation. can't wait for episode 3.
LogicalWaste ya that's like everyone gripe you are not alone ;)
These 1st 2 videos are kind of technical And not an accurate representation of what the rest of the series will look like. After the 3rd one about the hacks I did to my gear It will be more just about the making stuff
Fowler, it's a great start and it sets up the series by answering the inevitable questions up front. Great job.
I am recently getting into bushcraft. I'm not very good but am eager to learn. I have baught a bush craft axe. And Some paracord. A fire stater. And compass. Fishing line and a couple hooks.. matches. I even hope to get my own TH-cam channel up and running....sorry I'm rambling lol
I need to know whatvis Adobo spice you use Please help me I've tried to figure it out for a year now . is it like the stuff we get in stores or close? I love mine just so curious ?

Stuffing the sweater into the armsleeve to create a pillow is the best thing since sliced bread holy nice find
Just finally found the videos. It's so obvious that you're having an absolute ball out there! True survivor.
I'm loving this series. I do not watch a bunch of tv so I'm catching up on what you did out there.
Gray Man Outdoors Thank you so much man! More to come!
Great video! It’s like an awesome behind the scenes from Alone!
So strange. You are, by far, my favorite TH-cam and survivalist. I've watched every episode of the 30 day challenges.. But I'm just now realizing I have t watched this series in its totality! And awaaay we goo!!
aww thanks 😊
I'm from Maine as well!! If it's not wet snowing out I wear a fleece and vest also. Doesn't restrict arm movement like a full winter coat does!
Alway good to watch what you are doing again
Thank you. I was/am most interested in the clothing choices. Quick drying seems to be a godsend. And those socks... A 'lifetime' guarantee on socks?! I gotta get me some of those.
Peter Cohen Yeah they are well-worth the investment
Yep, Darn Tough are one of the most popular socks among long distance hikers. It's my go to socks as well. The Merino blend makes it odor resistant as well like Fowler said so it's pretty ideal.
Jay Wanders cool I didn't realize the science of it Just that they worked
I have one pair of darn tough socks and I love them. I would like to try a pair of farm to feet socks just as a comparison between the two. I kind of hike... LOL. I have a backpack, my son has one, we both love hanging in the trees in our hammocks. The issue is that I have a rare muscle/autoimmune disorder I've been fighting since 2009 and my hikes are not "long distance" by any stretch of the imagination. So maybe hiking would be more like trail camping, LOL. My first merino wool socks was a gander mtn brand and they don't hold a candle to the darn tough ones.
Dave McIntyre swears by Marino wool
Fowler you are awesome. No on deserved that win more! Love this channel
Thank you
Thank you again my friend. Another awesome video. You take care out there.
What would people think of me if I was on the show and I lived under a tarp like this for the entire time LOL
LOL Homeless guy
really interesting to hear you talk about how you did things, you are the first guy from the show, who actually break down in detail what you did, what i know about,
i just hope you can get more viewer,
fredde
hobbexp ya thanks I think the views will come when I start getting into making and doing all the stuff Buddy has ever seen before. Those will be the kind of posts that people find share worthy
Joe Robinet also made a video about his 10 items. You can see it on his channel.
Joe is doing really well i got to Collaborate with him some day
Fowler, you are a very good storyteller!
Woohoo!!! This is such a cool series idea! Im trying to get the courage to start my TH-cam channel, and you're helping a lot!
Go for it Got nothing to lose
I concur! Darn Tough Socks are the Bomb! It's the only sock I wear...rain or shine. Summer winter. They just work. I haven't worn any out yet....going on 3 years on 10 pairs. When I do wear them out, I will send them in for new ones. They are lifetime unconditional guaranteed.
I have 8 or 9 pairs. Plan to send them in but only once, and I'll keep buying from them for life. Can't even use other socks now.
hey I really like your knowledge and survival capabilities. I think your doing great on the videos as long as you teach the rest of us how you survived and this is the key for a successful channel. I subscribed and hope you make more videos on surviving
I love this series. It's really cool to see more of what you did than what was on the actual show. I like the hack you did with your L.L. Bean and the suspenders. I have never felt as staffing your jacket into the sleeve for a pillow. That is pretty cool. I usually take my down jacket and put it in its stuff sack and use it for a pillow
Thanks !
I saw that hat in the thumbnail and was like that's the guy who won alone!
Nice vid. Subbed.
Congrats on alone! You killed it. Respect..
Thank you for such a through presentation. I enjoy your work very much. I am learning a lot.
Love watching you and your vidieos and prayers for you and your family
I’m watching all of your videos and I’m trying out for Alone.....Awesome!!
This is going to be a great video series of self reliance enjoyed from the comfort of my leather recliner. Bring on the next 86 days!
Yeah man !
Why didn't you make something you could sit up in? I can tell from experience about 30 years ago when I wiped out on the Aniak river in Alaska in my nautiraid packer kayak and losing my tent body in the process, what I did for the rest of the trip was every night build a tepee structure over my boat.

Great job Fowler! Looking forward to seeing everything you ate ,beings you didn't take any rations.
Fish head soup and grubs yum
Lol,looking forward to it !
Just watched thw whole Alone Season 3 and checked your channel - great conntent cool guy! greetings from Austria/Tyrol - Edi
Hey just stumbled across your channel. I look up your alone episode and didn't even recognize you. You lost so much weight and you look so much better. Cheers mate
Thanks for this series. I really enjoy it.
Cool thanks
Second time watching this playlist just awesome 😎
Thanks for the detailed information! I was wondering what clothes was allowed since nobody ever went into it. The show focused on the 10 items a lot but clothes is pretty darn important.
Jay Wanders Out ya very gotten cloths in a wet or place could mean the difrenc between staying a long time and going home with wet drawrs
At the end of season two that one guy fell in the water and said he got all his clothes wet and I was so confused if he really was wearing everything or what. Clothes definitely forced him to tap out at such a critical moment.
Ya they didn't have as many cloths in season two because they didnt need winter stuff so i belive a lot of them were waring most of what they had all the time.
O check out the coment just below form Nicole from season 2
Watching every episode
My New favorite Chanel love the content
Very cool! thanks for sharing!!!
gus1911 Thanks for watching
Awesome, nice account of the 1st day out.
Thanks
That a an amazing gear list. I doubt I could have done that good with gathering up quality clothing..:(
I liked that they let you guys have some decent light boots this time.
Patrick Germond My feet got cold in the light boots sometimes But I would go in and warm up eat some fish head soup for lunch and be back at it again
Fowler's Makery and Mischief Hey, I was rewatching episode before this last one and I noticed something. Have you figured out why Ted stopped catching fish in his gill net?
Fowler's Makery and Mischief Hey so remember I defended the Wipples on bringing the bar of soap. Yeah I don't know if I'm still there. I say that because I don't think they brought a gill net??????
And I caught that Jim and Ted are 36 and 35 years old. They looked younger. But from the previews, one gets really sick, and if it's Ted, I bet they tap since he may not be as motivated to stay.
I did like how Jim chased off the cougar. That was cool.
No Maybe he caught them all ! Jami thinks he needs to move it.
Great video! Good to see the clothes you brought. A bitt different that what we needed for Vancouver Island, so especially interesting to see. Thanks! :-).
Dr. Nicole Apelian thanks Nicole was There anything different that you guys brought Except for obviously no heavy Winter stuff
Less gear since it wasn't as cold. One base layer, one pair of gloves (we did get a pair of warmer gloves around day 50 or so...could've been earlier), one hat only, no sweaters at all (one given when we got the gloves). Very different environment...though it got down to freezing temps - it was that raw wet cold. I found that my overbuilt shelter (3' thick on all 4 sides and on top...and the same for my bed thickness) were key..that and bringing in hot rocks at night to warm my shelter. Once I shut the door the shelter warmed up fast. Without the warm shelter to retreat to it would've been super cold.
Hi Nicole. I've been impressed with how well you and some of the other ladies have done. It's sad that they only found room for one woman this season.
Still, I suspect that Brooke and Dave Whipple will either win or place highly.
I was also impressed by the knives that you and Megan from season 3 chose. If a person only has one knife, it should be a big knife. *Smiles*
Thanks so much! I loved my knife choice...worked so well for me. I didn't even use my axe :-). Thanks again for the kind words...I am hopeful they will have more women back on for future seasons.
Very cool I'd love to have Everybody that's been out there Make guest appearances If you're ever up in the area or at the same place we will have to do an episode together. Somebody asked me if it would be 87 episodes longAnd I said no butWho knows
Almost feel like watching this and the actual season side by side
Good stuff. I would be interested in hearing about what things you would bring next time you had to do alone. Thanks!
I'll have to do a video on that It would be the same items But I do some more modifications toAll of myItems
Cant wait for day 2
im not going to go over evey day but the next one will most likely be day 2 first fire and first fish
Your videos are great keep up the good work
Thank you
wow! they allow more clothes than i think i have! sucks being poor. i only have 1 pair of boots and they're falling apart after just 6 months. people have literally given me jackets before.
I really learned a lot from you thanks for all the tips and tricks 👍
Keep up your videos!!!
Cheers from Argentina!!!
Thanks Argentina !!!! Love that Place!!
Nice one 👍 going to learn a lot from your vids 👍 jonah from Scotland
Another cool video, keep up the excellent videos be safe & God Bless : )))
I also had a White air of the Sorel Boots-HATED THEM
great video. Really fun to watch. Keep em up!
If requests are being taken: It`d be nice if by clicking the next button we could just see the next video in this series `87 Days` instead of something else. Just a thought. Still love the vids.
If you start waiting it by Going to the Playlist and open up 87 days it will do that otherwise its up to youtube
Word, Another Orange fan over here ;)
The higher up the drier up Nice. My wife and I watch Alone. We call it slow starvation for 1/2 a million. We hike a little and its fun to see / learn the differences in mentality and gear. Did you have the choice of extra rations as one of the ten items? Also do you know of anyone who has tried to get - find or cultivate yeast? If one could choose flour as an extra food choice and get some "friendship" bread going. Seems like a way to extend / maximize calories. I know everyone is a winner / expert on the comfortable couch.
I was the only one who did not choose a ration as one of my 10 items. I think you could cultivate wild yeast if you chose flower.
wow i did not now that you could bring two pairs of boots and 2 hats
wilderness wonder or in my case one pair of boots And 20 pounds of garbage I had to lug around ;)
Love it!
Pretty cool I have a celtic cross in the same spot on the same arm tattoo as u do
awesome series!
thanks
good videos
9:30 = Put some of that N6500 Glue on it ~ PROBLEM Solved. I do Armed Bike Patrol & have a pair of Black New Balance shoes that I've had for 5 yrs or more that I rotate among 3 other pair & at this point those shoes are basically all Glue (LOL!!). I;d throw them away but they are so comfortable & still functional = That Glue is the bomb for repairs like that.
when you knew to keep your coals buried in ashes, why waste a pick on a ferrorod? you. used it 3x. You can fire roll a 2"x8" strip of the shemagh in 2 minutes or less. All that's required is that you sand off the paint from the shovel, rust it heavily with coatings of iodine and then use the rust as an accelerant when fire-rolling.the strip of cloth. Since the shemaugh is 3x3 ft of cotton cloth. Anyways, the main thing to use for fire rolling is ashes. So, once you have the first fire, there's no more need of rust or using the shemaugh strips. You can use fibrous plants on site, or make charred material and use any carbon steel tool and any hard, sharp rock to get fire. You can also make a big pump drill in 1/2 a day. With some copper electrical wire, (part of your "snare wire) the duct tape" , some lint scraped from your shemagh, and the camera battery. So there's. 4 easy ways to make fire. and you only need to do it ONCE. So what makes the ferrorod "essential", hmm?
Damn, you should go on this show.
I would love to see how long you last.
Nice informative video sir! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Were your North Face pants the Paramount 3.0 version. I have two pair ,I love them but not sure about durability , especially 87 days.
Cool Video. When I set up tarps I like to use taught line hitches, they are easy to untie and allow me to easily tighten things later if needed.. For long underwear I love smartwool. I've done some long hunting trips that I spent the entire time wet and they have always kept me warm.
Mink oil on gloves... I use it on my boots, belts, even my dress shoes (church shoes). Why didn't I think of that?
fowler, have you thought about getting an amazon store? takes pretty much no work from you other than picking items off amazon. it gets fullfilled by them and you get a small portion.
Tim m Looked into it but got confused and set the idea aside for now
gotcha! i know wranglerstar has one. he might be able to help if you change your mind.
Ill have to look into it agian i use amazon a lot thank you
think I need to try 87 days wilderness challenge belly's getting a little big haha
i thought you would gain your weight back ! but you have done good!!!
Gained a little bit back since we bought the house Just because we stop eating keto for a little while Causing yo-yo diet effect But we went back to eating ketogenic And lost 8 pounds in two weeks. So if I ever have to go out on a show againI'll have to do is eat pizza .
Love your videos man! Are you from Searsmont? My cousin lives there and my folks are in Sedgwick!
I'm late to this party as I just discovered Alone a few weeks ago on Netflix (haven't had cable for 10 years). Sorry if I missed it, but I didn't see a description of your crosscut saw. Was it a Curtis model? Did you use your multi-tool to sharpen it? Can you talk (or point me to where you've talked previously) about that saw and how often you had to sharpen it? If you had it to do over again, would you use the same saw? Why or why not? Thanks. Really enjoyed Season 3. I'm just starting on Season 4, but so far Season 3 has been my favorite. The duration and creativity was most impressive.
Watch the previous video in the series he talks about all his tools and stuff. I think he addresses all of your questions.
So in the show Alone season 3 episode, "Making the cut", at about 40:15, Colecracker is getting on the helicopter he has suspenders on that don't look to be sewn on. I wonder how he got away with that?
There was actually debate about that they tried to make Him take them off. But I spoke up and said that bogus I've suspenders And Mine are sown on. "he should be allowed to take his" They called Production And decided to keep his suspenders.
Well. I just spoiled myself on the winner of season 3 but that’s okay, i was looking to see if Pantagonia was really as harsh as the tv show made it seem. Why some days you guys had fish but other days you didn’t? Was there anything else in the wild that could have been sustaining you like Rabbits? Squirrels? Birds? If the predators were sustaining themselves there then surely the human could, is my philosophy. Then again i am no survival expert, just very curious :)
I also want to say congratulations on the win and hardwork and i hope you are alive and well.
thank you for the video if you get new boots can I please have your old ones
What and sell my glass slippers :) never
What brand is the jacket? That's literally the reason I came to this video. Lol
just something I got on Facebook years ago sorry
@@FowlersMakeryandMischief oh, OK man. While I'm here, congrats on the win! Your duck boat was awesome, even if it only caught fish. 😊
I love Kittery Trading Post
Can you make a video about what you need for backpacking since my dad thinks it will cost in the 5,000 dollar range per person and I want to prove him wrong so yeah
saving 300 hours of shelter making and wood processing leaves lots of time for making netting. It only takes one day to make the pontoon outrigger raft, and a day to make the rope. How long did it take too make the fishing dock and all the steps and handrails? :-) So you could have done 10x better if you'd done a bit more research. You are NOT going to homestead. They will never let the show go 4 months, much less a year. It would cost them a ton of money and offer them almost do benefit to do so.
I'm just a Canadian but if the Indigenous people here rocked caribou sorrels before that's probably gonna be worth the extra money.
I’m watching every episode 👍 when will I win my gear zack I’m excited to get out there and use it 😀😃😄😁😆 lol
a lil late to say something but it dont surprise me with that fire steal, i had the same prob with it. i tested it out at home 1st (just in case never know how good china cheap shit is and i tried 70 times and never lighted a fire in my back yard. it barley shot of sparks and it seemed to not be even close to hot enough t start anything sadly enough.
It's good survival,,you try survival in island?
👍87 day men

You're so entertaining and brilliant I'd love to do a collaboration with you I'm ready for anything 🙂

Is there anyway to find the series so I can watch it all from the history channel
Hulu.
So did u every brush your teeth over the 87 days
His morning breath on day 20 must of reeked liked his ass on day 80 lol
Why do you do make small 15 minutes episodes, instead of a 40-50 minutes one? I find it tiring to look for the next episode all the time.
I just don't have the ability to make longer stuff just yet but i may try coming up in a month or so when the shelter is done and i do some staying there for a few days.
Why is there one red lace on that boot ? Do you know the meaning of that
is acreage affordable up in maine
