Lesson here: When you get cold; rub your wood. But it's prety neat though. Compare it to making a bowdrill you took away a lot of steps and the friction part I bet, was just as fast in these cold conditions. So if there's Chaga around, this is actually more efficient than a bowdrill.
You’re the man! I have camped 3 times in my life and you have taught me I can survive if I remember what you teach us! Thank you for doing this for so long. Been watching you for a few years. Brother you are the man Thank you so much for all your hard work 💪😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hei Lars, would be interesting how it goes when you put a bit wooden ash between chaga and stick. I know that David West works a lot with wooden ash, all kind of materials and friction, maybe then it goes faster. Great video as always
I admire your perseverance with that method. Well done. We have chaga where I live but it is only in a small part of the country. Less and less can be found as the "hippy" types drink it as a tea, or harvest it to sell to medical herbalists. A great tip , never even heard anyone talk about that fire starting method ; let alone see the procedure carried out, thank you.
Very cool Lars! Myself and a couple buddies were up camping on my property this last fall, one of them is a huge fan of yours, and we found a fungus that looks similar. The buddy who found it thought that it might be a fungus that can be used for tea but it didn't match the description. After seeing your vid, I think it's Chaga. There's some Birch on my property. I'm going to look for this fungus in the future. Very interesting and thanks!
Awesome video Lars. You can use just a good dry stick/branch and basically drill into the chagga for a friction fire. The two inner layers ignite the best the outer layer is good for chia. Thanks again for another great video 👍
👍👍👍 .. awesome Lars 😊. Now, to go out into my local forest and find some Chaga. Oops, my local forest does not have any Birch Trees ..any that there are / were there have been removed. Fortunately, on both occasions, I was able to harvest some bark before they were carted away .. a stock thereof I hoard jealously and use sparingly. Chaga though .. nothing. A good share .. thanks. .. take care ..
Thanks Lars! Currently just dealt with -25 c wind chill here in Ohio the last few days. Not too bad though temp wise, I still wear my shorts and sandals out. Stay safe and have a good one buddy.

Great job! I appreciate the distinction between "it can be done" and "can I actually do it" congrats on the fire! Be well out there.
Thanks 👍
That's awesome. You've definitely proven you are an outdoor survival expert. Thank you.
I am so jealous, you have what appears to be a great life in an amazing country. Love back woods camping.
Lars, that friction fire STYLE is used in South America and In the Philippines by the natives. However, the use a special type of tree, (bamboo) tree.
Wow, that was really impressive, awesome job Lars! 16 Minutes of rubbing sounds like hard work aswell !
I could still feel it in my arms the day after :)
dont they say wood warms you three times?
@@SurvivalRussia small price to pay to get a fire going in case of extreme need. incredible job.
@@anotheryoutuber_ You mean twice?
@@beavisroadhog9629 nope
Lars, I like the way you put theories to the test, instead of just accepting folklore.
Wow that’s really cool never saw that before!!👍👋🙋🏻

Man Lars. No tools. Cave men needed your videos
but how would cave man have watched it? ;-)
@@couchcamperTM Flintstones had TV bro. I seen it.
😀how could I forget, I've seen it, too!@@tomhowe1510
Makes me think of a line from an American TV commercial " So easy a Caveman can do it ."
@@couchcamperTM on the 1g network. T-Mobile most likely.

A good share .. thanks. .. take care ..
I must say that l am impressed, started fires in many ways but this is truly special and so simple. Can wait to give it try it.
Superb love it
That's awesome now if only there was chaga in my area I could try it. Good info Lars thank you.
Really awesome
Awesome job Lars ! Great video as always !
Awesome Lars 👍👍
Very awesome!
Cool method to get warm in northern climate.
That is very nice!
Awesome, one of the only technics I didn't do yet. Thanks
Another great video.
Hello good evening 👍👋👋
Amazing! Well that could be an absolute lifesaver, literally!
It will only work in cold weather though.
Tries, having never attempted it before, while recording the process. Mad respect!
Thank you, love your videos Lars!! Thank you.
Happy to hear that!
I HAVE MADE FIRE 🔥 ....I HAVE MADE FIRE! 🕺🤸♀️🕺
Good demonstration Lars thanks for sharing YAH bless brother !
Thank you brother Mike. Be blessed!
Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing.
Try using the packaged hand warmers on your electronics. We used to do this in in Northern Minnesota on our GPS and other electronics.
Thank you Lars .You just saved some lives❤😊😊😊
Wow thats pretty amazing
Thank you for this excellent piece of outdoors knowledge
When I saw your breath, I didn't think it was going to work. You are the man, Lars.
I didn't know that one. Thanks!
Nice work last.🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Lars, that is incredible & invaluable. Awesome demo !
smart way to make fire. Yeah, and keep the warmth wile starting the fire
I will have to give that a try. Thanks for this information.
Thanks Lars! Currently just dealt with -25 c wind chill here in Ohio the last few days.
Not too bad though temp wise, I still wear my shorts and sandals out. Stay safe and have a good one buddy.
And they say there is no benefit from being 400lbs.
And you get to stay warm rubbing that stick until you get your ember. Chagga is definitely a gift from the gods. So is a birch tree!
Loved, loved this idea! Cannot wait to try!
Very interesting and good to know. Thanks Lars
Ha, ha....here in central British Columbia Canada..your backyard looks just like mine...-25C here now. Will try your technique! Be warm!
Awesome .Thanks for sharing Lars
Nice!!
wow thanks , I'll remember that one ,amazing 🖐😎
Now that was cool
Sweet, I need to try this now. Just need to get back to a birch area.
Havent watched the video yet, but wanted to leave support for you. I will enjoy the video later today.
Gonna rename you to the 'Wizard of the Woods'! Kudos👍👍
