Primitive Technology: Freshwater Prawn Trap
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2024
- I built a prawn trap from lawyer cane, sticks and vine. Then I caught some prawns and ate them.
Prawn (and fish) traps are simple traps designed to catch aquatic life due to their shape. It consists of a simple basket with a funnel shaped entrance. Prawns easily find their way into the trap as they are funneled in, but have difficulty finding the way out.
I wove the main body of the trap from lawyer cane then made the funnel from sticks with vines woven between them. The funnel was then inserted in the top of the basket and was complete.
I put the trap in the water under some tree roots without any bait. About 10 minutes later caught the first prawn which I stored in a pot of water. I caught another one and made a fire.
I humanely killed the prawn using the splitting method which destroys the central nervous system (boiling alive is more painful). Then I put them back in the pot with water. I collected some yams that I planted years ago from wild stock and put them in too.
I took 5 hot rocks from the fire and put them in the pot boiling the contents. The prawns turned red after cooking. They were peeled and eaten. The yams were also peeled and eaten.
This method of catching prawns is easy with the only skill needed being basketry. In practice, a long stretch of creek might have several traps collecting food each day without any effort on the part of the fisherman. Bait is not necessary to catch prawns as they will be naturally be drawn to the fish trap out of curiosity. But scraps from previous prawns may be used to bring in new ones (they are cannibalistic) or other fish like eels. The prawn trap is easy to build and can be reused many times.
Edit: I originally called this animal a shrimp when technically it is a freshwater prawn. A prawns segments overlap the ones after it whereas a shrimps second segment overlaps the first and third segment. Shrimp have a distinct bend in the tail. It is definitely not a crayfish however which is basically a freshwater lobster.

Part of his success is that, because he doesn't speak at all, anyone anywhere will have the same benefit from watching his videos. There is no language barrier.
MrGruntsworthy no, because he has not yet created a microphone, in future he create a primitive microphone and can speak
I wish you'd do more stuff with food, while shelter and building material is all well and good, actually getting food on your stone plate is very interesting.
I agree, but I feel like food videos would have less international appeal. Australia is so biologically unusual that foraging and food prep tips are unlikely to be as applicable worldwide as hut building and pottery ones are (although this particular trap can be used pretty much anywhere).
@@derinedala5032 Yeah, since in Australia, you are part of potential food, and Australia reminds you daily.
@@Verpal ayyy lmao
@@derinedala5032 Well there are still a decent amount of things that only work in his region, like he basically makes everything with lawyer cane but that only grows in Queensland.

smh go vegan, dont eat prawns. surely you can catch some wild tofu or gluten free wild bread
put a smile on my face. good one mate !
I'm vegetarian, but I just can't figure out how vegans even survive
Olden Oak Easy, they don't
I'm pretty sure walking tofu is a thing..
*but I just can't figure out how vegans even survive*
I'm pretty sure its extremely difficult without the privileges of a modern industrial consumer culture.
If you left the trap in there for a while, will multiple shrimp enter the trap or do they scare each other off? That might make it more efficient, as the trap could be left unattended while the yield increases.
Primitive Technology love your videos
Primitive Technology I love you and your sexy body
Primitive Technology why did you delete my comment ?
Isn't it crayfish, not a shrimp?
what about using a bait like they do in lobster, crayfish and crab traps?
I grew up in Hawaii, and we used to trap these guys (with steel mesh traps). It looks like you're sitting by the creek waiting for them to go in by curiosity. We would bait the traps with a piece of coconut or guava and leave them overnight. We'd get lots of prawns in each trap, and it's a lot less work than catching them one by one.
I think he is demonstrating to us how the trap work
Yeah I imagine if you need to feed a village you'd make the process way more efficient. What he did now gave him 1 meal, but it's enough for demonstration purposes
Is steel mesh "primitive" technology?
Ok but no one asked you, boomer.
@@Green-vf6ff No, but that's clearly not OP's point. His suggestion is to bait the prawns, rather than just letting them wander in. The material is not especially relevant to that point.
Give this guy two years and he'll have set up his own sovereign nation and gone into space exploration.
Mohammed Hamza swear to god his next videos will be something like "aircraft made of wooden fiber and clay" or "ballistic missile made of rocks and boar hive"
He did not enable cultural victory. Clearly, you did not view his earlier video.

Leave him one day in the wood with just a knife and he will invite you for dinner witch he hunted inside the new house he made
marvelous! Glad to see the humane kill method too. Is there any practical use for the chitin shell?
+Primitive Technology can these ways be used in any habitat or like any forest or does it depend on the place
Chris Strayer most shrimp are cannibals. good bait and shrimp attracts alot of fishies too. i use em for bass.
Humane lol, they're shrimp.
Chris Strayer madey
+Chris Strayer Shrimp are canibalistic so you can put the chitin back in the trap as bait

Love how sufficient yet respectful this guy is. Harvested the prawn as quickly and humanely as possible. Also made arrowroot flower without killing parent plants. Awesome!
@@Whisper0ak that was after he harvested the prawn, in the description it says that he splitted the prawn where it would destroy the nervous system and that its less painful than boiling it alive
@@Whisper0ak ok Emily

They're arthropods. The belly is where the brain is. Same goes for other arthropods, like spiders and insects. Splitting the belly open is like smashing a vertebrate's head in. It's the most humane kill possible with that level of technology.

if u are serious about it you should look into diet related changes. eating more fruits and veggies should help
Try cutting out dairy, if that doesn't work, cut out as many animal products as you can.
so much potential in this! you could make shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.
p.s.: shrimp cocktail too!

Primitive Technology 2020: How to smelt copper using a blown furnace & how to build your own castle
Yewty I bet he would have no problem smelting and metalworking but mining is hugely laborious. would need a whole village of people to do it unless maybe he makes explosives
He should try to get silicon from sand to make some computer chips 😂
and then it rains
Not necessarily. Mining now days is difficult but back when they had copper deposits in plain view, one could gather it easily. Just look for the green rock. Could be difficult now but I guess this is meant to be about primitive technology.
I've seen documentaries about this. Copper was one of the things that took people out of the stone age and made large scale trade a thing. It's pretty easy to work with and one could make a copper knife or axe by himself with basic materials if he or she had the ore.
Out of mud!
im starting to get primitive technology withdrawal symptom
I tried it last year because of this man. I went around the woods shirtless and with ought shoes, and I put charcoal under mky eyes and mud all over my body for camouflage and hikers spotted me and looked at me like I was crazy. Not joking, I tried to make a hut out of mud n shit and failed. I'm not planning on doing it again.

Yes, you gotta admire him sticking to his guns. He's held very firm to his shtick of being a prehistoric human in these vids. Giving only visual demonstrations that transcend languages and cultures as brfits a hunter-gathering tribe 12,000 yesrs ago.

The best thing is that since he's always silent, anyone can watch him and enjoy the video, regardless of what language they speak.

I feel ashamed of watching this because he's doing all this hard work for some food and I'm eating Chick-fil-A on the other side
So are we just gonna ignore the fact he made a fire with two sticks in under a minute?
It's easy to do once you have a bit of charcoal in the hole he is rubbing the stick in - charcoal catches fire easily. He must reuse that stick to make his fires quickly

I'd like someone to do a comparison between this man of men and all these "Preppers".
Can you Imagine?:
" I have been prepping for ages and have enough food, weapons and supplies put away to survive for 3 years in the underground bunker I had built that cost me $100K"
"I have a pair of shorts and I'll just walk into the bush bare handed and footed, build my own shelter and survive forever.
When my shorts wear out, I'll weave myself another pair out of grass or bark".
Haha exactly. More cost-effective (literally free) and unlimited survival. Not limited to rationing food and resources you've spent tons of money on.
Oil Burner amazing this info !after watching this guy I feel I can survive if anything happens in australia too - fear I think will kill many if they don't know how to survive - I made $10 PVC bow with penobscot method from net and bought arrow and razor heads - I made a quiver out of bamboo and paracord - just amazing bushcraft skills!
Oil Burner agreed this is way cooler but tbf, people like that are preparing for an apocalypse. a situation where weaving baskets might not be very effective. Since everything is dead.
Oh well. It depend on the situation. He will not survive long in a nuclear attack.
no is going to survive a nuclear attack if you are anywhere near it
I appreciate that he takes the time to dispatch the prawns instead of just boiling them alive.

My grandmother told me, during the great depression, in Appalachians in WV, her older siblings would catch crayfish from the creek alongside the road and cook them right there to supplement their proyein supply. These skills aren't just for survival situations, but hard times as well.

Solesky Pleb? Seriously? That has to be the best insult I've ever heard XD. Are you like a chinese emperor? I had to google what it was XD
I always feel inspired to do something outdoors when I see these videos. Everything I learn from watching these is so interesting and also something I can try to apply to my own time camping or if I'm somewhere I'm able to do the things in these amazing videos
Wow, this really is amazing... you catch prawns with baskets you made by your own hands from "nothing", make a fire from nothing, make the pot from nothing... but still you have more respect for the animal you eat than 5 star cheffs cooking in highly "civilized" posh restaurants that boil those suckers alive... You really are a rolemodel for a modern person! And as always an amazing display of skill, thanks for the video.
well I mean, they don't have the mental ability to feel pain
well, I mean a hundred years ago people said vivisection is ok, because animals dont have souls and their reactions to extreme pain are just mechanical, same as a machine. They only pretend to feel pain...
BTW. pain is a pretty basic thing, its definitely not a "mental ability"... and it doesnt even matter if they feel pain or not, if anyone needs to say this, they are already doing something cruel and just dont want to think about it.
Prawn =/= lobster. Lobsters and other harmful bacteria naturally present in
their flesh. Once the lobster is dead, these bacteria can rapidly
multiply and release toxins that may not be destroyed by cooking. You
therefore minimise the chance of food poisoning by cooking the lobster
alive.
Wow, thats an even more cockmamie explanation... Really? You really think there are bacteria that can react in the matter of seconds after brain death occurs. The body cant even react to it yet, but the bacteria are already multiplying right?
LOL - If you hit its brain and break off the central nerve chain, and throw it in the water, there is NO WAY for any bacteria to even register its dead before its already boiling. That is just not possible.
Crustaceans like lobster will start
decaying very rapidly after dying, so it's desirable to cook and eat
them as quickly after killing them as possible.
Throwing the live
lobster into boiling water will kill it, and start cooking it at the
same time, which is optimal from that perspective. No risk at all is better than a little tiny eventual risk but don't misunderstand me I think too that it is cruel for the lobster.
when I travel by plane, I always think that the plane can fall and we will survive on an island with tips I learned from youtube. Am I the only one?
nope...same here
User0104134245 same here
If your plane crashes, I don't think *island* survival will be your problem.
User0104134245 yep me to
survival is more about mentality than anything else really...prioritize your needs: water, shelter, food.....adapt that priority to the climate as needed (in cold climates, shelter becimes the top....in a rainforest, water is easily obtainable so it moves down....)once those are covered, be creative. look at what's available, and the things you could do with those resources.
When Lost was on TV, one of the first things that really bugged me: they TORCHED THE WRECKAGE. all beause they were too squemish to deal with dead bodies... by burning the wreckage, they elminated a HUGE resource that would have been IMMENSELY useful: thosands of feet of cabiling, miles of wiring (aka, rope and string) aluminum struts that could be reworked into usuable tools or shelter pieces with nothing more than a couple of solid rocks to use as a hammer and anvil. (note, i didn't say "easy"....it would take a LOT of effort....but it's DO-ABLE...) Aluminum sheets that can be reworked into shelter, and cooking utensils, or water storage.. It was a trans-oceanic flight so there would be SOME food, which would prevent starvation until greater supplies could be obtained....
look at these vids....he's a purist, so makes it COMPLETELY from what's around him, inculding making spining his own cording from bark fibers; imagine for a moment how much easier some of his projects might have been if he had something as simple as a a roll of twine/string? A roll of 550 paracord is a gold mine in a survival situation; when i was an avid hiker/backer, i had a 100' roll of it always in my gear...
He has legendary levels of patience. I use modern tools and still get annoyed when a project takes a long time
Atleast you realize your mistakes
Fr modern day humans are smarter but we have gotten so soft and lazy lowkey our ancestors were out here grinding 😂
@@CoachDanielpt I'd argue that a small minority of people have gotten smarter, but most modern humans have gotten dumber. Really depends on who you look at.
Props to him for killing them in the most humane way possible
ninjapleazz boiling they alive?
he severed their central nervous system with the rock at 5:34
JDAWGCAW Oh ok, sorry.
Nicest comment thread on TH-cam.
right
This dude is Runescape training his fishing and cooking irl
frzferdinand72 he trying to get to max level man
niceme.me
David Lee He's just trying to get that skillcape
frzferdinand72 he is an iron man
As well as his wood cutting.
turn on closed captions it tells u what he is doing
Burger Dude thank you so fucking much
lol now im gonna have to re watch all his videos.
Burger Dude thanks dude
Burger Dude what??
Thanks! Never noticed. But just out of curiosity, what were you thinking when you turned on closed captions on a video with no dialogue?
I find the exploitation of small critter's stupidity really funny. A double basket is all it takes for them to make an inescapable trap
This is a very well made documentary about the aboriginal aussies and how they first discovered how to throw shrimp on the barbie.
I thought they threw prawns on a barbie...
im dying
😂😂😂
It's 'SHRIMP' on the barbie m8.
Dovah Kiin maybe he is one considering how he don't talk
Make a fishing rod to catch fish in the river.
Hunter Hendricks I think you'd need a hook for that and making one out of wood is hard and it probably wouldn't be strong enough to hold a fish
You would also need somesort of bait to lure the fish to bite the hook.
Steven I once caught fish with potato and bread pieces, so that should not be a problem
Gherkay geez I guess they never ever fished in this time period. Thank god we invented hooks in 2017 to solve this problem
Before fishing rods fish were caught with spears which is super had to learn to do, due to the way the light is refracted by the water.
Any plans to start shrimp farming there?
I think you can keep them in pretty small ponds so you don't have to wait for wild ones to stray your way.
Also I think a primitive cooking section could be cool. Trying to wrest something yummy from the forest rather than just nutrition.
"Yummy" food is a luxury of modern times. Food in the past was bland and yes, purely for nutrition. There's really no place in the world where there are enough vegetables and herbs growing wild to make a meal that would be pleasing to the modern palate. In fact, just about everything we eat has been selectively bred over the centuries and does not even exist in the wilderness. The shrimp are a rare exception.
akirak is right, ingredients were very bland back then, especially the herbs and veggies
Björn check AlmazanKitchen chanel, very natural way of cooking food ;D
One guy here is saying that the food from the past is bland and that may be true compared to crazy processed things we have today, but there were still many herbs and spices - garlic, salt (near coasts or for trade), mustard seeds, tons of peppery plants. Also there were sweets like fruit and honey. Fruit like wild grapes that can be dried to raisins mixed with wild flours like acorn flour would probably be decently "tasty" to a sweet tooth although not pure sugar. I've personally made fish seasoned with wild garlic and lepidium peppergrass that was decently "tasty." I had a bird with wild peaches that was actually very good. It's true you wouldn't be making full hamburgers with all the traditional toppings and sauces from things in the woods, and some things like salt and cheese are hard to get unless you're in certain places, but it's entirely possible to make grilled fish that tastes like restaurant grilled fish or to make some sort of fruit biscuits. Also it's very easy to fry if you kill a fatty animal like a possum or a raccoon - these are basically walking bacon with over a liter of loose lard per animal. Being a total vegan in the woods would suck to an extent, but if you can eat any type of food it's not infeasible to make appetizing wild foods.

This channel is not really about what is feasible for one guy in the woods but what one guy can achieve without complex metal tools or help.
Naturally any attempt to farm would at some point attract animals.
But since he already has a house and fences I really don't see a problem in principle.
Pro tip: Turn on subtitles to know what's he's doing
there is a tv survival game show called ...Alone...you would have a great chance of winning 500,000$
j smith it's not hard to do this, he just spends his time doing productive things
Adam Gabriel yeah but he might become more famous and more famous means more money
why would he need money? he's living off the fat of the land.
Are you serious asking this question? Sure he can survive without anything from the modern age... but luxury? I'm sure of everyone dreaming about not needing to go to work early in the morning so he/she could feed his/hers family or provide him some comfort and entertainment. It might be fun to live this way for some time...but your whole life? And let me tell you this... no matter how fun nature can be, nothing beats the modern age
Collector731 I wasn't serious...
man, such a waste. You overcooked them shrimps for sure
Primitive Technology :(
Dj Kevina hi
cuzim
Better overcooked then undercooked. No toilet paper in the woods.
lol
Dude,you've got balls of steel to do this stuff in your bare feet
Zero Nuggets123 eventually your feet will develop more padding as it heals from the daily walking. It's not much, but some get really used to it.
I tried walking mostly bare feet for 8 months, after a couple of months It no longer mattered what I was walking on, gravel and tarmac felt almost the same.. In the end I no longer got cold on my feet in cold weather..
Torgeir Borsheim wow you sound like a gross person, congrats
He has feet of steel :)
I was working on a remote mountain farm in Norway, I would always putt on shoes when going somewhere where there could be other people.. If you find walking barefoot in nature gross, then that's your problem
Would be really nice to see what [relatively] sophisticated recipes you can come up with. And yeah, hunting and meat storage videos would be _great_ !
I vote him to be in the next season of alone he'd win the $500,000 easy
Lol that would be sick
Brandon Creamer I agree, he'd win no problem.
Brandon Creamer "Prime"itive
Yeah heed just be chilling in his house with everything he wants
Brandon Creamer they probably would just give him the 500,000
*finds twigs and leaves in backyard*
*attempts to weave basket*
*fails miserably*
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome I think you need a nap.
Emily Rose I do. And I actually attempted to weave a basket
Use vines
You'll need pencil-thin, soft, freshly plucked twigs for that, man.
You had the wrong materials to begin with. But that's okay. Find some reeds, and try again.
How did he make the camera?
$100 and your local hardware store
Maybe like he makes everything else😜
Camera is made by mud, Camudra
It's actually made from yam
nikon made a special camera for him and it shaped like a potato and the color is mud.
Best bit about his videos is he tells us all we need to know without saying a word.
Survivalist james franco guy can you make an oven? It would be interesting video to watch
Putin some coconut white thingy will help you to catch prawn they eat those
Sly Carl Hey guys I'm jew
Sly Carl lol exactly what i was thinking
My condolences. ;)
Vic Adams thx
There's nothing like Ironman mode, that gives you such satisfaction out of low level skills.
Ryan Carder OpieOp
Ryan Carder thats no where low level :D

These are my favourite videos on the internet.
nayabay you are not alone on this subject.
It's just so calming.
ur my favorite too
I love the way he says nothing so that you can concentrate entirely on what he's doing without any distractions.
no distractions just subtitles that require you to strain your eyes to read since the font is so bad
One of the best channels of all time. The videos speak to our common human need for nature.
If this guy can find some salt in the area he's all set!
Maybe some garlic and a goat to milk so you have garlic butter
I mean, he's in Australia, he can easily get salt by calling those prawns 'shrimp'
he can collect his own sweat and dry it
sodi yum
@@jamesgors6650 lmfao
You should do an AMA on reddit.
I think he has done that before
This comes up way too often. Lucky for you he answers many questions on his blog/website.
LE REDUT ARMAY HAZ ARRIEDSS!
xD reddit is sooo awesome *tips hat
Bacon Narwhals are awesome right XD
edit: a letter :^)
edit: wow thanks for the updoots!!!!!1!!11
It's like Red Lobster endless shrimp but without the complimentary cheesy bread.
Next Primitive Technology episode: Complimentary Cheesy Bread
Lol, what u doing here m8
I shat myself
I was about to like this, but it's at 69, so I won't commit heresy here.
คนไทยที่เข้ามาดูกดไลค์หน่อยครับ
This channel has got to be the best channel out there in terms of quality of videos.
not to mention it can be understand worldwide =)
understood*
Misypo almazaan kitchen is sooo close !
Misypo it's because he is able to shut the fuck up and actually show somrthing interesting and unique to people. Something only few people do on yt.
Misypo have you watched clickspring? their vids are, without a doubt, the best, highest quality videos in the world. I have no doubt.
