Will you confirm that it wasn't Jason in the intro? The comments are freaking out.
Wait, when did it change from Murphy to Jason? Also, can you do an episode on the importance of RFID wallets? The contactless payment limit has increased by 50% in the UK and this could cause a whole host of issues.

Its a fuckin changeling!
That's my Purse! I don't know you!

Fine. I'll leave. :/
Back off!!! Get your own Jason.
Wait...that isn't Jason in the advert...
I don’t know what you mean that’s obviously jason 🤦🙄

"Dakota fire pit is great at not being detected"
Dakota Fire Pit: *Immediately leaps five feet in the air*
He over loaded the pit.
Someone trying to hide wouldn't use as much fuel at once.
You would normally pile the excavated earth around the hole.
Finally, you would choose a location thats at least partially obstructed.
The main benefit comes from the near total lack of smoke, not hidden light. The high airflow and temperature allows the fuel to be burned more completely resulting in a very light smoke. In the great plains a smokey fire would be visible over the horizon.
Yeah but you can see less smoke coming from it even if its bigger
one good example of a more discreet dakota fire pit is in the Steve Wallis video where he goes camping along the side of a river. He builds a dakota fire pit and partially covers it so, while he still has heat, the light and smoke are less noticeable.
They didn't make it properly.
@@AtticaSalt since when did Jason and Brian do things properly lol
Hey, this is a topic I'm very experienced with! I've made more Dakota fire pits than I can remember. I've made them in the summer and winter, even in snow.
The pit Jason made is hilariously massive. He basically just dug a normal fire pit with a stone over part of it. The order of timber really doesn't matter at all, just do what is consistent for you. Ill explain how I make mine and you can take it for what it's worth
First, you get your titanium camp spoon from your mess kit, and your pot. Dig with the spoon to make a cylinder shaped hole that your pot fits on, but doesn't fall it. The hole should be up to your elbow for depth. Then you start the air hole. You can make it upwind, but it doesn't matter. Once the fire starts, air will be SUCKED into the hole. You start the air hole about 4 or 5 inches away, and angle it so it reaches to the bottom of the fire hole. You also dig the air hole with your spoon, and you make it as small in diameter as you can comfortably do, usually just enough to fit your fist in. Then your pour some calcium carbide into the bottom of the fire hole (pick it up at army surplus). If it's summer, pour a few ounces of water in the fire hole, winter toss in snow. Throw some kindling in followed by match or sparks. The gas from the wet calcium carbide will ignite and basically impossible to extinguish. After you have coals and air audibly is being sucked into the hole, you set your pot on to cook.
This is the type of fire you run when fire isn't allowed. Also make sure you clear brush a foot around the opening, unlike these guys did lol
My first thought was. "He did it BACKWARDS! The fire is supposed to go OUT THE HOLE!"
I think Jason was sick when the did the square space ad he sounds kinda funny
I was thinking the same thing ...dead ass tho i thought maybe beards made men sound different for a sec 🤣😅
That’s not him
Jason looks wierd in the opening
He fucking time travelled.
That's Jason?
It's a body snatcher.
I was gonna make the exact same joke haha
serious case of baby face O.o
To make it fair, Jason should have started digging the same time Brian started building his fire.
brian could also have sat himself in the way of the wind
Total video should have been 2 minutes long tops.
I hope everyone realizes that the editing on this show (specifically, all of those little subtitles) are way more work than they first appear. For what is on screen for only about a second or two, the editor is probably spending the better part of an hour if it's even a little bit graphical. But also, editing something where you really have to pay attention to the content and then match stuff to it uses so much of your brain, and it's not the same as your editing brain. IDK, I've been an amateur editor for the last 15 years or so and whenever I notice how much work the editor does on this channel I wanna give a shoutout. Pay them more, Brian!
I try to thank the editors in my comments. Unfortunately, good editing is usually not very noticeable (it's kind of the point). On this channel, the editing is usually great. In editing my own videos (very infrequently, but starting way back in 2002/2003) I have found what you said to be very true. (Editors: put what you want on your pizza!)
@Tristan Burke Oh definitely (and that probably took a bit of work). I just mean when they add things like the graphics from wikipedia articles, he often does some photoshop work on them. Plus even adding all of those templates is time consuming, sometimes something doesn't look right and you have to manually tweak it.
"We're going to have to get the hose"
You've missed a feature of the Dakota fire pit... when you dig the pit, you should pile up the excavated material around the rim of the hole. This further shields the fuel from the wind, and allows you to quickly extinguish the fire by smothering it.

Interesting how when they were talking about how much better and easier it was to start Jason's fire, they neglected to mention the time and energy it takes to dig the hole in the first place. Maybe if Jason had to start digging the hole when Brian Started making his fire, the results would have been less obvious.
1:38 "People can't see your fire burning"
8:36 *X to doubt*
They mean there's less smoke, which is true
Teehee
they put way to much wood in and to quote another comment: The high airflow and temperature allows the fuel to be burned more completely resulting in a very light smoke.
'If you see a line, get in it, they are probably waiting for something'
Yes
That phrase actually comes from Soviet Russia - with all the breadlines and general lack of material for people, they got in the habit of getting in any line they saw, with the assumption that otherwise they would miss out on the last loaf of bread or sack of potatoes the government was willing to distribute.
In two hundred years, when this is dug up on the internet, people watching will have no idea that a virus was responsible for that haircut.
He's been doing that for a while before the knockdowns.
You dont remember the spikes dont'ya? There was no pandemic going around that time
Ahaha is it bad that i like how long his hair is now? It kinda suits to be honest, especially with the glasses
I just wanna say thank you guys. I’ve kinda been having a shitty day, but this video was the first thing today to make me smile.
Son: Mom, can we get a Jason Murphy?
Mom: But, we have a Jason Murphy at home
Jason Murphy at home: 0:00
11:37 I love how, at the end, brian went full serious mode on jason, to where he even made him "pinky promise". Lol, that's when you know he was dead serious. 🤣😂😂
"I never thought we'd have a measuring contest on this show but, MY GOD LOOK AT YOURS" - Brian Brushwood
I thing that it was actually from Rian Rushwood
2:55 That Dark Tower reference. Loved it.
The way Jason just casually picked up the rock and followed Brian was golden. That was an amazing bit!
Props to the camera ops and editors. The fire comes across so clearly and amazingly
You know what we need in Texas in the summer? That's right. Hotter campfires.
Who was that guy in the intro, and what has he done with Jason?
You two are the winners. Very glad to see that kind of professional explanation 👍
I like this style of video where Jason is explaining it to Brian, it makes it a lot easier to understand
I'm actually from the area the Dakota ( amongst other ) Sioux tribes are from. That wind isn't windy enough.
Is the area called ... Dakota?

@@MmeHyraelle Shady Sam?
actually I'm in Nebraska south of the Black hills.
Can we talk about how amazing it is that their teepee is still standing
You guys keep changing the names of old videos and it gets me EVERY... DAMN... TIME...
I have never been so distressed by an intro.
When you want to grill some ribs for yourself without anyone noticing
Bendix what about the smell?
*INFO FOR READERS:* hi, it actually build these at festivals.
1. The ones we do are dig 2x pits the size of your thy ... about 1.5ft deep by 0.5 wide.
2. Dig the holes straight down, next to each other.
3. Once they are ready, put your hand all the way down and poke a hole through to the other chamber lying next to it.
4. Put wood and build a fire in first chamber. >The draft will come into the top of the fire >goes through the wood >through the hole at bottom and the flames exit via the second chamber
5. whole purpose is to have a smokeless fire, burning the wood gas as it goes.
6. The second chamber where the flames exit is where you cook at the surface.
all the best
"I never thought we would have a meassuring contest on this show, but look at youuurs!!! My goddd!!!" 9:05
9:05 "I never thought that we would have a measuring contest on this show, but LOOK AT YOURS!!! MY GOD!" Had to turn of my speakers.
At first I thought, “Seriously, a 12 minute video on Dakota fire hole?”
But then you said something none of the other bush crafters have ever mentioned that I’ve heard, which is dig the smaller hole on the side where the wind is coming from. Very good advice.
And then you used a blow torch to ignite it???? Good grief!
Looks like a great way to start a root fire!
Therapist: Beardless Jason isnt real, he cant hurt you
Beardless Jason:
Nice! It's actually quite weird how you haven't done this sooner! It fits the theme so well; Hidden fires!
My computer booted up directly to a new Modern Rogue video, good stuff!
a modern rouge bushcraft area would be the most watch series on youtube to be honest
These videos seem like they are so well funded how do you guys not have more views/subscribers
THE INTRO MADE ME GASP- I WAS LIKE “DOES JASON HAVE CHRONIC WASTING DISEASE OR SOMETHING”
Jason looks a bit different in that square space bit
i love the skits at the beginning of the episodes. have you thought about making the intros episodic
I tried to make one of these the other day but it wasn't working and I didn't understand how to make it work, this video has been helpful, thanks for sharing :)
Would love to watch an episode of you guys trying to make a fire with nothing but what you can find in the woods
I now want a full length, real time episode of those two digging a grave and burying a prop body of some sort.
Or perhaps for the Halloween episode this year they have dig UP a body instead! And have them tell spooky stories while they're at it or something...
No one tries to make a fire in windy conditions without shielding it from the wind with their body. But I admire your determination to keep facing the camera :'D
2:55 “Just kick everything over and go on to your next camp, the man in black escapes to live another day” I would loved to have seen a reference point for Stephen King’s The Gunslinger!
The "If you see a line just get in it" line is from soviet Russia where most people waited in lines for their goods. Due to the low supplies instead of having the leisure to discover which line gives what, you just get in line an hope to get anything at all.
How did you guys beat me here, I clicked the notification in less than a second.
slow poke
haha speedy
I haven't even gotten the notification yet
Cause I’m a modern roogueeeeeeeee
the notification is really slow so a video can pop up in your recommended before you get the notification
When I first saw the intro I was like, oh damn jason had changed
Always bring with me an e tool for camping, and make one of these. I love them!
i hope david shows up in more videos, i've been binging scam school episodes this past week and he's always great
Wow, that was an amazing fire!
fantastic explanation. i sorta do the same thing with my firepit with a copper pipe and a funnel on its end
Jason, your style of fire lay is called an upside down fire-you guys should consider that above ground too! Set it and forget it, it's got some pretty quick coals-it's my go-to way to make a fire now!! Not the same benefits like in the dakota fire pit, but still nice.
Sees intro
"Jason looks different"
since last 3days that i have watch one of your videos my TH-cam suggestions is all about your channel modern rogue and i just cant say no. .
Brushwood: let there be wind!
Also Brushwood: this is going to be a good episode.
A good way to say good afternoon, god I love this channel
I rewatched this vid again, and thank god I watched the ending!
I love how the man who literally wrote the book on fire eating. is like I'm no expert at fire. just the eating of fire then good to know.😅
Everytime Jason makes a reference to something I wonder what other nerdy thing is he into
4 minutes in, I was just thinking that I didn't remember having seen this episode before, and then I realised that it came out literally an hour ago.
Mr. Brushwood, you have inspired me, soon I will be getting a gill hibben sword cane with "go away Bad Guys" on it, perfect defense weapon
Is this the same principle as a Rocket Stove where it draws the air through?
Is there an outdoors way to make a fire whereby the smoke is minimised? You mentioned the "the guys arrive and you kick soil on" etc. and a fire with minimal smoke would be ideal there.
Thank you, editors, for standing up for pineapple on pizza.
I've been silently wanting them to do this, this is probably my favorite type of fire pit, if you have a posthole digger, even better, you can get the holes down in the ground much easier, if this is near a temporary militia installation or large scale camp...
How would you start the Dakota fire pit without a blowtorch??
I highly recommend birch bark for starting 🔥! The sht is amazing
Me at 5:35 "Brian, use your body to block the wind!"
This is the kind of content I come here for
In a wind, I find the teepee isn't the best way to start a fire. Try a "log cabin" style fire - lay the kindling down in that kind of pattern, you want to save your largest kindling, but build it large to small. Put your firestarter in the middle, then build a roof from larger kindling you set aside. Place one or two fuel logs on the top. When it gets going the cabin will collapse, and you want the logs to land in the middle of the fire, so position them accordingly (that does take practice, try placing them on after the kindling has caught). This keeps the starter from blowing around, while protecting it from the wind a bit better. The roof and small kindling help to trap the hot air against the easier-to-light twigs. And, in the wind especially, once the walls have caught, the bigger gaps near the bottom function similarly to the fire pit, feeding oxygen to the flames above them
The music under this video I've heard other on Chillhop! Really enjoyed it.
Calli from King of Random. Would love this episode. I concur.
I live for Brian's subtle Dark tower references
Having all the materials laid out before starting a fire generally makes things way easier. You can get a fire going in about 5 minutes or less if you have favorable conditions.
I have an idea you guys should test, I do t quite remember where I heard it but the idea was that you could take a piece of paper and line the barrel of a gun with it and it would keep the rifling from leaving marks on the bullet
9:06 my headphones died and the audio from here blasted out and all of my flatmates gave me a deathstare
great video gentelmen !! i just subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your work !!
Love your bit at the begging here. Fun fact I actually got to use the line 'it's not what it looks like'... I had a house full of half clothed ladies, someone was wearing a giraffe onesie the rest mostly in their underwear and our model had just put on a robe, for a drawing evening. At some point someone thought we needed to have some pizza delivered. The guy dropping off the food looked genuinely unsure of what he had just walked into ...
Feels weird being here "uploaded 3 minutes ago" I'm never THIS early
Funniest start to a video uv done in ages😂
Would it be possible to have multiple air intakes facing different directions or would that make the fire less efficient?
The changeling got Jason!!!!!!
I DIDNT MISS THAT KING REFERENCE, ROGUES!
Could you explore cooking with Hangi? and other indigenous cooking types? most of these are useful for survival skills.
8:24 "Well the good news is that I didn't fail nearly as bad as I feared I would" _fire in the background_
This was a great episode. I enjoy fire.
Nice! Dark tower references! Knew you guys had good tastes.
i didnt even have notifications. i was like, "im gonna watch an episode of the Modern Rogue" and this video happened to upload as i looked that up
I like how you've tested ancient techniques and then used a blowtorch to start the fire 😂 with the exposed fire during windy conditions it would have been fairly impossible to start anything with old methods. The Dakota firepit on the other hand was often used as an underground cooking oven: once obtained the burning ashes you put your meat wrapped in something (aluminium nowadays) on top of them, then bury everything and come back after 5 to 8 hours. Dinneeeer's reaaaady!
Good to know about the Dakota Firepit. I wonder how well an above-ground stone one would work?
The Changling struck and took Jason!
btw Dakota firepit air vents don't necessarily have to face the wind, the heat from the fire will pull air through it.
What is it with all these DT references. I LOVE IT! Sai Murphy, have you finished it yet? HURRY UP!
6:39 #PineapplePizzasMatter now there's something i can get behind.
Gotta say love yalls channel its the best
So out of curiosity, you said it the Dakota fire pit benefits from the wind the way it's designed, but how well would this work on a relatively calm day or say you're deeper in the woods with practically no wind at all? (being blocked from the trees)
It should still work perfectly fine in theory
@@davehanson1616 thanks , I've always wanted to try building one just out of curiosity
Oh boy, this one's gotta have some outtakes.
