Mike is the role model all young men need. The dude seems completely genuine, and no one is doing more to push young men and women into the trade fields than him.
This is so bullshit.. Come to Australia, and learn of the Australian aboriginal.. The only Culture that has been living on earth for over 70 thousand years. And still going.. they will take you into the outback and teach you how to survive. This bloke is a Wanker..
It broke my heart when Thomas said he "couldn't afford to go to the funeral" just broke my heart. What a fine young person he is, he brings so much to the world, well done Thomas. And well done too Mike, but I'm sure you're used to hearing that by now but you too bring much to the world.
My wife and I took the three day survival training class with Thomas years ago! It was fantastic, and information I'm glad I possess. Thanks for showing everyone the wealth of information Thomas and the Survival Training School have to offer.
Tehachapi is hardly nowhere, but it is a unique place with the desert on one side, the high sierras on the other and the most fertile valley in north america on the other. When a kid, from 12 on, used to tell my dad on a Friday night, "I'm going up into the hills, be back Sunday night." Imagine what would happen to a parent now who just let their kid wonder around in the mountains as a kid. Didn't take no survival course, just learned the hard way. In summer I could go out as long as I wanted. The great thing being, once up into the mountains, one almost never saw anyone else.
Been watching Mr Rowe since I was a child. I have always admired you sir! Keep doing everything you do. It's relieving to see how many people can be both successful and happy. It gives me hope for myself and my own happiness.
Thanks again for continuing to grind like this, Mike! You could've easily just relaxed, but you're still out there showcasing amazing do-gooders... and we love it!
A friend of my dad, a caretaker of one of the ranches in those mountains was bragging about how he knew about anyone who was up there and caught them. When I mentioned he never caught me he said a kid would never go up into those mountains by themselves. When I described the truck he was in the previous weekend, his dog in the back riding on top of a bunch of firewood, and that he had cut that wood in a certain ravine and it was live oak and not black oak as he said, he didn't know what to say. He and most people don't know if you aren't in a car, you can hear any car for miles around and even if you stand out on the open they drive by without even noticing.
I moved from Texas Hill County to the Arkansas Mountains two years ago. They're two very different landscapes. This video reminds me to take Mountain survival classes for when my family and I go hiking into the mountains. There are basics for all survival conditions but each area has its different challenges and needs to survive.
Each area having its own challenges is so important to know. You need to have a wide range of skills and understanding, but one thing that tends to get overlooked is how the different seasons have such a huge affect on the landscape and what is available or even possible. If you fail 999/1000 to make fire in a hot dry desert, how many times might it take in the winter with everything covered in snow? The elements really matter and you must prioritize your most dire of needs with the expense of your calories and how much water you have even if all the water you have is what's in your body. An old anti-freeze jug might be all you can find to carry water but that is a lot better than an old oil jug for your water if you can even find any water. Lots of skills are needed and it's a lot better to have them and not ever need them than to need them and not have them and just the basics is a hundred times better than no real skills at all.
As a vet I can so relate to not being able to make it to a funeral of someone you love. The need for something to break is real. Glad he found a useful outlet. The world needs more men like him.
@@aaqilian5.085 Rude, and not representative of our good brothers in Scotland. Better men than you are doing well by their country. You, are apparently a failed edge lord.
15:30 - 16:40 is why we all watch any program that Mike Rowe is involved in. The way he can cut to the bare bones on why the subject is important to us and why it is important to the person who is teaching us.
This just scratched the surface and that's good because it means you can make more episodes covering many other survival skills. I look forward to Mike discovering the simplicity and ease of a figure 4 deadfall in some future show.
Growing up in Utah, I was a Boy Scout and we learned a great deal of these subjects. One thing I never learned correctly, however, was orienteering (navigation with a compass) and NOW I regret that lapse. On the other hand, I have a well-stocked survival kit in every vehicle I own and several plastic totes with disaster prep supplies in them, all informed by those long-ago days.
Most excellent! I took a 30 foot fall on Mt. Elden in Flagstaff, AZ in 1986. SAR tried to use a helo, but just as it was hovering overhead, a front was moving in and they had to wave it off leaving the SAR team to lower me down the cliff face and steep slope to the 4x4 ambulance some 200ft below. That all took almost 8 hours. I had a backpack survival kit with me and used a few of the items to keep hydrated, protected from the elements and signal the SAR team (blinking the flashlight with SOS Morse Code). I appreciate this episode and those who produced it...good stuff, Mike. I fell the 30ft and had some time to think, knowing I was going to fall. I knew gravity was not going to take a break and it was going be something I had no control over. Turning my focus to my Maker and acknowledging this was up to Him must have meant something as I don't remember the fall, just coming-to. I looked over toward a noise to see a squirrel looking at me as if to ask, "How'd you get here?" I thought to myself, "A mistake". I'd landed on a fairly flat bed of rocks, but I felt ok. Later that night, the Emergency Doctor would agree, nothing serious had resulted from the fall. At most, I may have had a mild concussion. I did not have a headache though I had a small bump on my head. My sister clipped the newspaper article and shows it to me on occasion. I still keep in touch with the squirrel. Just kidding, but I do smile about that when I remember my adventure mishap. It could have turned out much differently, but it did not. I have to blame God for the good ending 'cause I got no other explanation.
give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. teach a man to fish and he will always be able to eat. teaching is a rare skill for those who dont need money. but a true teacher teaches to see the eyes light up with newly acquired knowledge that will last a lifetime. no amount of money can make a teacher feel that. its an amazing feeling.
You haven’t really made a fire. Until you were burnt and yet still determined to make it. Just like you haven’t really owned a knife. Until it made you bleed! It’s just part of life. A lot of people have forgotten that.
Hey Mike I just have to tell you this ,,, when I was watching and you just finished making the fire and said "ok what do we do now" a grub hub commercial came on the next frame and it just totally cracked me up !! I just thought you might appreciate that. Thanks again ,, take care
I just saw the grub hub commercial again and the best part is the first few frames of the commercial are "go for grub hub" in a kinda whispering way lol I guess u had 2 b there jejejeje
My number one survival rule is: Never hike in an area that has no water, is too hot to survive the mid day sun and people never lived in. So far this rule has kept me alive.
I like your rules. I went for an innocent hike in a new area and got turned around and lost. I initially panicked then stopped myself realizing I had to get out of the situation and panic wouldn't help. It took me twice as long to get out as it did to get in, but I kept struggling to navigate, and eventually got back to where I needed to be. Needless to say I've been more cautious since. It seems I literally have NO sense of direction and have to rely on the position of the sun and distinctive landmarks.
The smoke also helps chopper pilots see the wind conditions at ground level as they like to turn the bird so it's facing into the wind on takeoffs and landings, similar to an airplane. It just makes things easier.
When I was a kid, my mom was addicted to that morning show with Regis Philbin. She thought he was the funniest guy around. I’m glad the good LORD in his providence, has given us Mike Rowe. What a mercy
I’m left without words and as a human being I’m love to see when individuals such as Thomas Cayne take the time to show others how to survive in the wilderness of nature. Thanks again Mike Rowe.
I saw something genuine here. Thanks Mike. This guy is the real deal. I wish you both the best. That smile at the atlatl course was priceless. I believed you.
Important information for sure and being an outdoorsman it comes in handy. Mike love to see you do a show in Eastern hilly part of America where you have totally different weather sometimes every day.
Thanks sooooo much for blowing the whistle on all those tv survival shows. Having a playground where a lot of those episodes are filmed the fakery and staging they do would shock most folks. Keep doing what you guys do!
Hey Mikey, I liked this video very much. Before you know it, you'll be a "SERE" instructor in no time. As I listen to " No where man" playing in the background. Kudos and Cheers, Mate.
Sort of like a California ferrier. He gets out his forge, makes a big show to bang out a horseshoe, takes three hours, and charges two hundred fifty bucks to shoe a horse. Unlike the others, who go and buy the ready made horseshoes, bend them to fit, hammer it on and charge 40 bucks for the half an hour of work.
Well that's insulting to Thomas why would you assume such a thing? he'd most likely teach you to shoe the horse yourself saving you time and money. no idea what he'd charge for that as nothing was mentioned in the video. Besides the man has to make money and he's doing it in the most altruistic way possible.
@@supposedly1-2 For one, I know that area very well, Tehachapi. Second, been surviving in Alaska for 32 years, and for ten in the middle of nowhere, living off the land, and third, I learned how to shoe horses from a ferrier from Kansas who shoed horses for six months in Tehachapi.
The skills that Mike, and the School coverd are the skills that we use every day. If you use a modern knife today, you saw on the show "The first" knife that "We" made in humanity.
A particularly good how-to with the Atlatl. Many survival experts talk about the atlatl, but almost nobody actually shows you anything about it. It was not just a squirrel and rabbit tool. It was a big game hunting tool if you had enough people with you to be effective.
The one place I wanted to stay when working on the awful NMCI project at China Lake was Ridgecrest, CA. A short hop from Kern County. Great people. Amazing topography. I'd hoped to stay through April, which was when the desert apparently blooms, but it wasn't to be. Death Valley is absolutely stunning at night. We had a Chinese guy with us who didn't know what the Milky Way was. He got a front seat in the best remote area to see that phenomenon. Fantastic people out there. They treated us well, and gave us the full experience of a small town with only two bars. Hope you're all doing well at "The Partners"!
Mike, you never cease to amaze. Loved this. I don’t think people understand how important it is to have the knowledge to help you survive if you find yourself in this type of situation. Thanks for another great episode.
I agree about what he said about the suffering. The outings I did that were the hardest, were the ones that I learned more, was proudest of and suffered the most. Nature is honest...if you didn't suffer, its because of you. If you did suffer, thats also because of you.
when it comes to survival, EVERY area will have its own challenges... so its a good idea to learn about the area before getting into a situation where survival becomes an issue.. and like having the right gear, sometimes knowing the area is not always possible.. this is where having the basics of survival really can help... and remember the odds of you being nekid and needing to survive are EXTREMELY rare...
Hats off to this young man. I’m not under any circumstances a religious person. I have read the Bible from genesis to revelation and what this man did reminds me that f the verse from psalms 23:4. This man did something few if any have ever done and completed.
Needless to say, never change! The way you do these videos and keep it real. We are missing raw and organic content, it’s all scripted and censored nowadays
Between 7-12 years old I lived next to the National Forest and could go off for days at a time in the Summer. Grandma always said as I headed out the door…, “The best way to stay out of trouble is not to get into it”. ‘Nuff said!
this series has been so amazing to watch thank you so much for making this! been loving watching you since i was just 5 years old in 2003 with my pops!
Mike is the role model all young men need. The dude seems completely genuine, and no one is doing more to push young men and women into the trade fields than him.
I agree he's the real deal, what you see is what you get.

Hollywood Mike. Nuff said.
He's been of mine over the years real or not. Mike Rowe, Les Stroud, Rip Wheeler, Hawkeye Pierce, Al Bundy. to name a few
@@xSirDudex Les Stroud? Wow! There's a blast from the past.
It broke my heart when Thomas said he "couldn't afford to go to the funeral" just broke my heart. What a fine young person he is, he brings so much to the world, well done Thomas. And well done too Mike, but I'm sure you're used to hearing that by now but you too bring much to the world.
So sorry Thomas about your sister.
I know.😔 He was trying so hard to keep it together. I'm so sorry for his loss.
I found it more sad that he then tried to kill himself...
Your call to your brother was hilarious. Thanks for leaving that in, I needed a good laugh. 😊
By the sound of the conversation on the phone, I see Mike wasn't the only one who inherited his mom's sense of humor!🤣👍
The timing was spot on ♡
His brother is almost as funny as he is, I can't imagine what it must've been like growing up in that house.
My wife and I took the three day survival training class with Thomas years ago! It was fantastic, and information I'm glad I possess. Thanks for showing everyone the wealth of information Thomas and the Survival Training School have to offer.

A particularly good how-to with the Atlatl. Many survival experts talk about the atlatl, but almost nobody actually shows you anything about it. It was not just a squirrel and rabbit tool. It was a big game hunting tool if you had enough people with you to be effective.
Cool episode, having thrown an atlatl before, I can safely say that it is NOT easy to learn. Mike seems to be a better shot than me too. lol
Another good one...Thank you
What a great show. I think this format is as good as dirty jobs. I am going to binge watch all of them. Thank you.
Best part...correctly signaling the chopper with the compass mirror on your hand. Learned something new, kewl!
Leave it to Mike Rowe to make starting a fire even more complicated then it already is XD, also love that your brother(?) took that in stride
So happy to see something from Mike!!!
10:05 The Mike Rowe tribal fire dance is awesome.
The one place I wanted to stay when working on the awful NMCI project at China Lake was Ridgecrest, CA. A short hop from Kern County. Great people. Amazing topography. I'd hoped to stay through April, which was when the desert apparently blooms, but it wasn't to be. Death Valley is absolutely stunning at night. We had a Chinese guy with us who didn't know what the Milky Way was. He got a front seat in the best remote area to see that phenomenon. Fantastic people out there. They treated us well, and gave us the full experience of a small town with only two bars. Hope you're all doing well at "The Partners"!
Did I hear Thomas say Aloha just before Mike threw the Atlatl? If I did, Aloha from the islands Thomas!! This is an awesome survival course.
Mike, you never cease to amaze. Loved this. I don’t think people understand how important it is to have the knowledge to help you survive if you find yourself in this type of situation. Thanks for another great episode.
Excellent content with real people and great actual survival skills. Humor all around. Love you guys.
You know, I'd really like to meet Mike Rowe, shake his hand, buy him a beer...
But I never wanted to *be* Mike Rowe...
mike having a senior moment with the phone is golden
I agree about what he said about the suffering.
The outings I did that were the hardest, were the ones that I learned more, was proudest of and suffered the most.
Nature is honest...if you didn't suffer, its because of you.
If you did suffer, thats also because of you.
That was great! TY Mike Rowe! 👍♥🇺🇸
Just came across this channel. Never knew this existed. I love Mike! Been watching you for years on TV. You're a good man and keep it up
Not sure why I was surprised Mike had a TH-cam channel. I’ve just found it though, and have a lot of watching to do!

Mad respect for that man
Awesome series mike
Excellent!

Mike Rowe for president.
Hats off to this young man. I’m not under any circumstances a religious person. I have read the Bible from genesis to revelation and what this man did reminds me that f the verse from psalms 23:4. This man did something few if any have ever done and completed.
Went through a very short course of jungle survival in the Philippines it’s surprising what you can do with nothing. Enjoyed the video THANKS.🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸
Now there's a story!
Well I'm sorry to hear about Toms loss of his sister, I will pray for him and his own. Thank you Tom for your services sir...
Needless to say, never change! The way you do these videos and keep it real. We are missing raw and organic content, it’s all scripted and censored nowadays
Watching this and seeing it used in action it was useful I will never will need to use those skills in real life or death saturation.
Well Mike, if you’re able to reach your brother via cellular phone. Then survival mode be dammed! Tell him to come rescue you! 😁😁🤣😂
Well? Scott did try to help."Use the battery from your phone, to start a fire".📱🔥🤣👍
Oh my God phone call with your brother priceless hide me in stitches
I love learning survival techniques
Great work by the editor.
