- Solo survival is always hard when you don't include water. But we had a challenging but enjoyable trip. Making fire, finding drinking water, foraging food and fending off insects for 3 ..ish days. Hope you enjoy this one.

Damn when you picked up those +30% movement boots you found the the prickly pears instantly.
Glass bottles are awesome.. in the absence of fire, leaving water out in full sun will allow natural UV to partially sterilise the water 👌🏼
Rod, you ALWAYS amaze me!! Please never stop sharing your videos, your passion, your knowledge. They bring so much most needed brightness and light to my world these days. XOXOX
You've inspired me to start kayaking and fishing!
Bro, I started kayaking a few years ago and almost completely stopped using my boat.. it's amazing.. so much more in touch with the water.. the ducks and fish and frogs are at arms reach.. iv been right next to all sorts of animals.. access stuff you can't on foot or in a boat.. like a mountain bike for the lake! Or ocean.. you won't be disappointed no matter the level you get into it at.. the cost of getting into the sport is minimal if you don't go crazy but, go crazy! It's dope
Be safe it’s not as easy as it looks
@@billysharp2242 Easy to go crazy. I have over $10,000 in my kayak with gear. More important don't buy a cheap paddle. You will thank me later.
50 dollars
I thought you lost 30 lbs doing it for a year?
Really tested our pause game at around 47:28 😂😂 excellent vid as always!
I know right! I slowed the video down to the slowest settings and it still took me like 7 or 8 tries to get it paused perfectly, looks like a picture from the simpons with text saying, fire, fire, fire, fire.. lol in the nuclear plant possibly?😄
@@Xero-SB you can pause close to it and use < and > keys to go frame by frame in either direction. Oddly, I paused it bang on in one try.
Amazing how you got that fire started with only materials around you, extreme patience and a never say die attitude. I thought that ember would go out for sure. Wow!
I absolutely loved this episode. I love the survival exploring episodes the most. Please keep these coming
This man took stranded deep to real life. Nice work man
Awesome video Rod persistence paid off. This video is more of a reality than those wanna be survival videos that so much others post. I would definitely pay for your survival classes. Stay safe out there and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas
I think my favorite part of your videos is the fact that you allways take some trash back home to help support the environment, just wanna say thank you. Btw hello from Alaska 🇺🇸
Love how you take a somewhat cheesy challenge and turn it into something genuinely useful for advice on what your priorities should be in a survival situation
Just what the weekend needed! A new Rokkit video!
I love how after you get the fire going the video becomes a lot easy going, when before it was a bit scary. ALSO (edit) that cactus is called nopal, and it's extremely nutricious, people that have a few dollars to eat a day buy nopal and cook chile and tomato to make some salsa and eat it with tortillas, in mexico it's very common to find it.
Just checked this and youre correct - in Australia we know it by its common name 'prickly pear' and is an introduced species that causes a major problem for farmers and has required massive eradication programs for decades. Few people would know its actually edible and a source of water though.
yes they are very good for you, ive never tried them. in arizona we call them prickly pears
Fridays are always spent in anticipation for a potential new upload from Rod
I love these longer videos! Great content.
In my culture we call the cactus nopales! You can remove the slime by boiling it in salt water and it's eaten in many different ways. My favorite is chopping it up then sautéing it with seasonings. It's amazing as the "meat" of tacos.
I love your videos! Thank you for such great content!
Great stuff, Rod. Cheers, mate! The sun can purify water if it is in a clear bottle. Takes about 8 hours, but the UV from a strong sun will do the trick.
@@TubeMeisterJC Agree its not ideal but @Mezafo makes a good point if you can't get a fire going (or find a pan). Recent research has shown UV - C light is one of the most powerful sterilisers and anti-virals known and is now increasingly used in hospitals and labs around the world. Also the component of sunlight that causes sunburn and skin cancer!
You’re a true natural when narrating your adventures. Keep delivering the solid content 🤙🏽
That was 100% my experience backpacking on the Great Lakes island systems (apostle islands, Northern Wisconsin. Lake superior) it was damn cold at night once my fire went out and I literally got up and broke camp just to warm up moving around
Experiences like that are the challenges our bodies have evolved to cope with and some think we need to experience to stay healthy.
You genuinely deserve your own show. I loved Steve Irwin with a passion as a child and although you two are far different I still watch your content with the same glee. I love it brother and I hope you are able to do this for many years to come
Let's be honest... Rod wanted to do this again bc he missed eating prickly pears.
Damn Rod that is cool ya’ll have prickly pear cactus down there also. I live here in South Texas and prickly pear was a staple of the native diet here. The Hispanic culture also uses it a lot also, I love them cut up and mixed with eggs.
Been watching your videos for years, first time commenting. Keep up the good work. This is by far my favorite channel on TH-cam and i always look forward to seeing your thumbnails popping up. Thanks for the great content and always bringing positivity to a not so positive world.
Just when I needed this. Thank you Rod, hope you're well!
I was actually having a bad day. Now, I'm calmed thank to your video. Glad you posted. Cheers mate
No BS, interesting, and super fun! Keep it up Rod!
Love these videos! I am here cheering with you when you got that fire going! Only thing running through your mind when you get a fire going like that is "more wood. more wood."
Man that actually had me fixed on the screen when you were tryna get the fire going. Isolating with covid at the mo this video is exactly what I needed
Can’t agree more with these comments. By far my favourite channel on TH-cam. Great episode Rod. Also… that was a slick bottle flip man 🤙🏻😄
Been with you for quite some time. Yak fishing only back then. Rod is the only creator who makes an hour long vid and I think, "Oh, absolutely. I'm in for the whole ride!" Great skill at talking to yourself and keeping the conversation fascinating! Haha! Keep it up!
I always look forward to your videos every weekend. I haven't even watched it yet - super excited!
Thanks for posting RoKKiT! Always looking forward to a new vid mate. Stay safe!
Perfect Weekend watch !!! Thanks Rod.
This was an epic episode mate. Keep up the good work. Cheers✌️🍻🐟🎣
Rod, you are THE MAN. Always with the best content at the best times!
Great, i was looking forward to another survival video of yours. Thanks for posting.
You must have a real sense of accomplishment. Starting a fire “one handed” is very impressive to me. Bravo!
Thank goodness your effort and patience to make fire paid off!!!
Once again u have produced an amazing vid! Great job rod. Loved the way you grabbed people's rubbish and turned it into useful bits of kit. 🤙
Thank you for the adventure!!! Stay safe and much love from the PNW!
Awesome video just a small tip since I grew up with those prickly pear cactus in a lot of my home meals and camping trips growing up, you ideally wanna get the skinnier and more vibrant ones after they’ve been basking in the sun say at noon they’re less bitter and have more of the actual flavor and of course a bit of salt if you have nothing else otherwise a garlic and chili mix coat really makes them spark though they’ve got a few more prickles the big fat ones are older though the one you had actually look alright
Seeing the fire start was one of the most satisfying things I’ve cexperienced😂
In Mexico, eating cactus is pretty common. A lot of people will just make a salad with tomato, onion, cilantro, and the nopal. It’s actually really good
So amazing that you found a meal like that for free on a beach. I wish I could do something like that. I love wild camping, it's a treat. I camp but I need all my home comforts plus gas/electric and all the cooking stuff in my campervan lol, although the weather in the UK is not so forgiving.
Super fun episode buddy. Great way to practice the ol' survival skills and bring out an entertaining video for us to enjoy. Cheers from Canada.
I love that you found water and a pot straight up. Humans have really left a mark on the world.
So cool.... I learnt a lot about survival in the wilds and deserted islands from you Rod... kudos... keep it coming buddy 🙏🏻😁👍🏻🔥🏖️🏝️🏕️
so Australia-Queensland been getting warnings of a big cold wave coming and this fellow right here decides to do survival journey
For the cactus pad, I recommend trying to scraping off the spines with a knife before cooking so you don't have to eat around it after cooking and there will be less waste
I like your take on Maslow‘s hierarchy of human needs.
Youre a legend 4 keeping it real 💪
Hey Rod. I don’t know if anyone has told you this yet, but you’re a pretty cool guy.
Dude... I TOTALLY loved this video!!! Awesome job with the hand drill!!!
dude i was so glad when i saw that fire coming to life, that right there is a very special thing imbedded in our very core ;)
my respect for you - what a great challenge ! superb scenery when you tried to make Fire, that was epic ! 👍✌🔥 Thank you for sharing a very interesting adventure!!
i hope you will have a big BBQ at home with lots of water or beer 😅
Hey missed this video as I was moving to NZ from USA but you can put those bottles in the sun and the UV can kill alot of the bad stuff, not a guarantee but better than nothing. You can also put your cloths in the sun and it will kill alot of the bacteria that make your cloths nasty. Just some stuff ive learned in the Marines.
More amazing content again! I really feel I'm with you in your vids. Superb
This kind of stuff never gets old
We are enjoying your channel. Rub the fruit of prickly pear in dry sand to temove the prickles. Try the juice from the leaves as an insect repellant. Haven't tried the latter myself, but read that it worked.😊
Dude I can't believe I just found your channel. I've been binging on your videos for like a week. Love it bruh!
How have you managed to make a whole meal out of that 😂❤️❤️LOVED IT
Thoroughly enjoyed that Rod.
love the content and the peace it brings. thank you
Love this type of content! Awesome work as always mate. Top effort! Cheers from Melb.
You insipired people to live freely and be grateful of what nature give to us with respect. One day I will have my own great adventure like you had. Cheers!
Nice job. Tenacity and perseverance was the key. Well done. It's funny because I realized I was blowing ever so lightly trying to help you get the fire ignited. I'm glad nobody saw me. It was funny. Thanks for the good time. Jerry
Shelter is the most important thing at the beginning of a survival situation. The building of a small shelter should've been his first priority!
I was waiting for this all day. lol. thanks Rod.
Great video as always Rod! Keep it up!
It’s a tropical island. You are not exactly going to freeze to death. Plus a familiar island, surrounded by fish and water! You have lots of elements on your side! 😂👍
Lol . Us Latino people eat cactus all the time. It’s called nopales and typically eaten with vegetables like potato, zucchini, jalepeno and onion. Try it mixed with that, cheese and tomato sometime! It’s also served with grilled meats. So good!
Sure "fire" way all the time. No pun intended.
Love this Rod.
Many Blessings
Another amazing video! Very impressive! Keep up the good work!
Excellent work Rod.
I love the split second memes you add to your videos every so often 😂🤣 I always check comments to see if anyone catches them 😂🤣🤣 “fire fire fire fire fire”
Awesome stuff you mad dog! Always the goods, can’t wait to watch it yewwww 👌☺️👍👏🎣🏝
There's something psychologically satisfying about making fire with your bare hands. Reminds me of Tom Hanks in Cast Away making fire for the first time.
Nopales is the Spanish term for prickly pear cactus pads, and they are used in some Mexican dishes over here in the Western Hemisphere. I've even seen them offered for sale in grocery stores. As a kid I used to pick and eat the fruits, they can be quite tasty.
I'm Mexican and we call those cactus pads "nopales". We cook them with pork meat and green salsa or we mix them in with our eggs in the morning. We have several dishes that we use nopales in. A bit slimy if you don't boil them down and salt them but they're tasty for sure. Love your videos all the way from Los Angeles, Ca.
Prickly pear is a super fruit and reeeeeaaaaaalllly good for you. The cactus pods a friend of mine from Mexico introduced me to. He always skinned them before grilling.
Dice up the cactus and scramble it up with some eggs and salsa. It’s a pretty traditional Mexican dish. We used to have it all the time growing up.
Love this one bro, better survival vid than most.
I'm so impressed with that fire you created, these survival videos are always crazy!
Nice work Rod very enjoyable video however throughout the whole episode all I keeped thinking was surely Rod will sleep in his boat but no he chose the irritating sand to sleep on haha😊
Great video mate! I love your life style.
Wicked episode! I love content like this, keep it up! 👍👍
I wanted a knife that I could use everywhere.
This camping-hiking-bbq has become my everyday carry tool and it met my expectations very well! It is sharp and looks good even in the hands of a small woman. I use it whenever I want.
I bought it from Almazan Knives
You're really getting the hang of that bottle method of getting an ember going! Bravo!
You know when you find fresh running water on island 🏝️ like that..that ganna make you day🤗👍 coz not all island have that
Trying adding trying Pinch of sand into base when making fire helps with fiction makes ember alot faster too with hand drill, stops if becoming shiny/polished at bottom of drill too
Please do this for like a week, would be awesome to see.
The Mexican people use that cactus alot. The spaniards brought it to the west along with other plants and pigs. It's used with egg dishes and all sorts, in strips. usually skinned. They use the new tender pads mostly. It's supposed to help w diabetes. Not sure if there are studies. It can help with skin and supposedly inner wounds, but it does have latex in it. So not sure how much and how much should be ingested. Might be a negligible amount of latex. I love the prickly pears. Take Care
Great Video. Like your channel.
I don't know why Rod's Thong Shopping every camping video cracks me up as much as it does... but it does.
Haven't watched the video yet but the title gets me excited.
The cactus fruit is called a Prickly Pear here in Texas and the leaves are called "napolitas" In mexican food I like it in Fajitas with lots of onions and Jalipanos !!
Favorite day of the week! Rokkit video!
I wonder if that water would be UV purified? As its in a bottle in the sun. I really enjoy your fishing and adventures. I am landlocked in Switzerland from UK miss the sea and fishing.
Cheers
I enjoyed your adventure. Thank you
Yeah boy! Love when these new videos drop
Love your camping adventures ❤️
