The Survival Russia Channel is about "The Reality Of Survival". I live on a Homestead in far away Russian wild nature. Here is no room for "TV" Survival.
Only Reality counts here. Survival Russia promotes the philosophy of always carrying equipment and never to be parted from equipment which will affect chances of Survival.
So did the old timers and pioneers of both the East and the West.

During my winter flight crew training in Alaska I realized the military teaches how not to die. As outdoorsmen we learn how to live.
Dan Wilder yep, sounds about right. Military also has a "you against nature" mentality whilst bushcrafters and the like has a "you in nature" mentality. It all comes down to attitude.
I overheard a senior medic NCO tell our companies First Sergeant during a winter field problem in Eastern Washington "Top, any idiot can be miserable" Course in the same platoon the Battalion surgeon was running around in winter wearing jungle boots. when I asked him about it he told me that with the right socks and depending on the temperature and precipitation levels that they were some of the best boots to wear to avoid frost bite with because they allowed the feet to breathe. I tried wearing them a coupe of times during the winter in Korea and yeah as long as there wasn't a lot of deep snow on the ground and as long as it didn't get too cold, they weren't bad, there were other times that i was glad I had my Danners on........ as a graduate Public Health professor constantly harped in his classes the answer is always " It Depends...."
Eating in the field as a serviceman is pretty simply. Either the food is delivered to you or you steal it.
Hello Lars
I have learned more from your vids than any other but I suggest your thoughts of military training and survival are not correct. Many months not days or weeks are spent by British forces in survival or working environs be it mountainous arctic, desert or jungle.
One of the problems is the lack of good kit for example due to the amount of military equipment used
I would have loved to have had use of a silky 500 many times
Thank you sooooo much
Your awesome!!!!
do you sometimes realise that behind this small camera, It ' s kinda like if Thousands people were sitting there around this small fire and listen To "Uncle Lars ' s story"? this is the good side of the Internet! thank you for YOUR time ! verry interesting point of view, I totally agree, reading dozens of "ultimate special forces" books could give us a lots of good ideas but it means nothing if we dont go out and experiment the skills we learned from them...
I shall have to try a cup of strong tea next time I get rust on the rectum. You see, I learn something new with every episode! 👍🏻
Works every time! :)
That is an aspect on military survival training that i was not aware of since I have never been through military survival training. Thank you for that eye opener. I have had that "card" pulled on me before. I have had people tell me that they have been through (X) military survival training course so therefor it was implied that they know more about survival than me. What they are saying most often does not make much sense in real world survival but regardless, they still felt that they were more qualified than me. Thanks for sharing that info. It sheds a new light on that argument.
I am more than happy to help out on this issue my friend :)
thank you both for your channels
More day in the life of Survival Russia please. The theories and ideas are always interesting, and I love seeing the country and your MASSIVE backyard!! Cheers from Canada!
Thank you :)
Survival Russia i love the sound of the wind in the trees behind you and the bright clear sunlight.
Lars and to all the great commentators , thank you so much for this dose of reality. 50 years ago my geography teacher had a great passion for the subject. The knowledge he imparted then I still use today. // My Australian Army unit did survival training in 1975 when the government went bankrupt. We went in our tropical zone clothes for 5 days above the snow line, we had to complete a 30 km route. One day 2 we found a cache of a one day tropical ration pack per person to sustain us for 5 days. // I learnt the true value of food - every meal wherever I am I say thank you to the cook. Later my crew killed, cleaned and cooke a 2m Brown snake - just like eating chicken neck. // This way the start of my life long journey in preparedness and living in remote areas. // My Thai family are now moving to a remote village and hope to make it off-grid and self sustaining. // Once started this journey never ends and I learn new things every day. Thanks to you all, Greg
I was watching a program on TV a couple of years ago following the progress of a group of NZ army cadets. Their task was to build a Bunker type shelter similar to one I have seen on this channel. One recruit who was as keen as mustard work flat out and had his bunker finished in no time well before dark. the bunker required digging a 2x2 whole in the ground and putting a roof on it. Next morning the recruit was in a bad state couldn't hardly speak, had trouble standing actually looked like he was stoned. That night it had snowed and the temperature had dropped below zero. The NCO new exactly what had happened spent 10 minutes yelling at the recruit then packed him off to the base hospital.
The questions I had were that the NCO new this would happen-the recruit had gone to bed with all his clothes on and hadn't taken the time to change his under clothes that were soaked in sweet. The NCO could have yelled at him the night before and saved a trip to the hospital. The second question is why didnt they have training before going out. We were taught about this kind of thing in outdoor education at school. Also what the hell was a recruit doing wearing cotton tshirts in sub zero conditions.
One of the first rules of the outdoors we were taught at school was you pack sleeping clothes in your sleeping bag, put your sleeping bag in a water proof bag then put it in another water waterproof bag. You put your sleeping clothes on at night change back into your day clothes in the morning. Disipline.
Huntarama some times people need a hard lesson to learn a good lesson.
Huntarama in the army a section 2IC came and yelled at me for hanging my wet cloths outside my hooch on a field ex. The section commander sent him over to give me crap. because I happened to be a higher rank I told him to stuff it.
A day or two later he and the section commander had to go to the hospital with early onset of pneumonia! I on the other hand was fine. :-)
Yea James Its amazing how many survival experts and professional hunter,s ect ect have forgotten this. Just because you have the latest and most expensive merino and yaks pube top and a thousand dollars doodoo down sleeping bag dosn,t mean you dont have to get the basics right.
I watched a hunting program the other night the two hunters had all the best sleeping bags ect because they were sponsored yet they were in there bags with their puffer jackets on and it wasnt even below zero.
They had done a heavy climb up to were their base camp was located climbed straight into their bags and cooked a meal in the tent. They still had the flue from their previous hunt.
I actually didn't know about this. But I live in an area where it rarely if ever snows. But it does get to 30ish at times here in Georgia so I imagine the same principals apply.
In my advanced first aid training we are taught that hypothermia can set it when the temperature is as warm as 15 C (59F) if the person's cloths are wet and it can be even worse if there is wind.
First step in watching a survival russia video is hitting the like button.
Former armed forces here. I would say, on the whole, the difference between military survival vs outdoorsman would be the tactical element, how often do outdoorsmen have to worry about the enemy, with all their equipment and manpower, finding them in whatever environments they are in? Never, really. However, a really good outdoorsman could very well be more experienced with outdoor living, on ones own, for longer durations… an interesting comparison that is difficult to define. Your videos are excellent BTW.
Military also has an extensive logistical chain.
That is very true :)
I agree, and just repeated your idea...one year later.
Lars, you are 100% correct, on your comparison between military and outdoorsman training. Even though I enjoyed my time in the Marines and got a lot out of my time in, it's true. They don't train you for everything , but they do give you some good building blocks to work from.
Spot on! Judging on my (albeit limited) personal experience of military SERE- & general survival-training as a "grunt" in the German Forces in northern boreal areas I have to agree with You, Lars. We did learn a few things in the German Army, true, but most of it was useful only under the very specific circumstances of being in a combat and/or SERE-situation. And while I gained personally from these trainings & experiences, I much more learn and enjoy being outdoors as a bushcrafter today than as a grunt back then. When I earned my rank of staff sergeant years later and had (among many other topics) to pass a course in woodland combat & leadership in the field I could use my civilian "bushcraft" knowledge in a dense Bavarian forest to better & more practical use than most of my military SERE-knowledge. ;) Anyway, to each his/her own! ATB, Gereon
First I'd like to send my condolences to the people of Russia and there're in our thoughts and prayers.
Secondly Lars thank you for another great video out in the bush and showing us how it's done. You my friend are a true woodsman and survival guru. I'd also like to add greetings from Chicago and ATB Mike.
mfavia620 what happend in russiA?
Tobias Wulff there was an explosion in a st Petersburg metro station
Tobias Wulff Russian police hunt possible accomplices of suicide bomber
BY IRINA TITOVA AND VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV
Today
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia (AP) - Investigators searched for possible accomplices of a 22-year-old native of the Central Asian country of Kyrgyzstan identified as the suicide bomber in the St. Petersburg subway, as residents came to grips Tuesday with the first major terrorist attack in Russia's second-largest city since the Soviet collapse.
+mfavia620 do you remember the school hostage situation? that was bigger than this, and there where a lot more. so no, this isn't the first major attack since the collapse of the soviet union
Ma Lea never said it was the worst. Of course the beslan school siege was horrific. Seems like with every new attack that happens, people forget what happened in the past.
Thank you for your time, Lars ,
nice brew in the fresh breeze , Sorted!
Looks like pretty good traveling, until it all thaws. You're right, too, about outdoorsman. Specially the old-timers. They could just keep living regardless of the circumstances. Just another day in the woods. That's why even on small day trips and small game hunting and fishing, I still usually have a fire, and set a few things up. Good practice and keeps the skills sharp. Take care out there.
You always bring the "A" game brother, love to hear your insight. I think you are a wise and knowledgeable man. Thanks for another awesome video Lars, have a nice evening.
Thanks again for taking us with you! I always enjoy your personal stories from the past. Have a great evening!
Military training is about working in a team. If you survive, you survive as a team. If you don't, well that's in the news. :) Surviving alone is another thing altogether. Like you said: "Get out and train, and get it done."
great video. .. I agree in part. ..In Canadian Forces there is both. .. a winter indoc. ..realy a familiarization with winter kit and skills and then their is a verity of survival training but non of this is to train people to live indefinitely in the woods. Outdoor skills...is something vastly different sort of skills. ... most indigenous people would not say they use survival skills....they just live in the ...forest...desert. ..costal. ..
Well, Lars, you seemed to becoming mesmerized by that icy water and at one moment I actually thought that you were going to accidentally fall in. We cannot have the awesome Survival Russia going off air for a while...how would we get by without you? Snap out of it and stop taking unnecessary risks. Fascinating and enjoyable video as always. Take care...
As always, spot on observations on things Lars. One extra added point about Military Survival training, especially SERE, it is all specifically geared towards surviving in combat conditions; like if you are captured and subsequently escape. People are actively looking for you so most of the things we can do as campers are strictly forbidden like open fires for warmth, certain types of movement, or even shelters, etc.
Spot on Lars, spot on. I thought the tracks looked to be possibly wolverine, nasty critters that can piss on your parade in a hurry. My old anti-armor infantry platoon had a a few solid outdoorsmen in it, the best of both worlds. We always managed to supplement our rations with the bounty of nature. We picked up the name "Roadkill" for its dual meaning because of our military mission and the way we thrived in the field. Yep, I learned the value of a good bow saw at an early age in the Boy Scouts. All the best, Gordy
Can't wait until you take the green machine down those logging roads and trails.!
Got my S.R. Fix for the day.....keep the awesome videos coming.
I always enjoy watching your vedoes you put the time in this is no exception I appreciate you for taking your time to share with us look forward to seeing you again could listen to you all day we'll you take care until next time my friend
Great video Lars, enjoyed the chat..cheers!
Lars, I was in the US Army for 12 years. You are correct. Survival training was just that, the bare necessities that are needed to not die for a few days and maybe as much a week. That is all it is intended for. Because of that reason it is simplistic on purpose so that you can train it quickly and remember it easily in an extremely stressful situation. As always, love your videos. Keep it up.
Great video. I like watching your forest exploring. Even better are you awesome military stories! Love it thanks for sharing. -Mark
Thanks for the perspective, and funny story. Good content as always.
great video Lars,good comparisons
Nice stories, and yes, totally true, military survival is another whole story
Cool Lars, thanks for the vid :-)
Lars, those tracks in the snow remind me of Wolverine tracks (Gulo Gulo).
That could be actually.
do wolverines live in russia?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolverine looks like they live in russia too , not only in Charles Xavier mansion so
Could be? community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=20060221&slug=wolverine21m .. or indeed a small black bear
Would love to see a Wolverine in the wild!
I got a small amount of survival training during my time in the marines. I dont feel like it gave me much skills applicable to being an outdoorsman, but I was able to glean small tidbits of knowledge that I still apply today. I learned hard skills like using a compass, shooting bearings, using a map, basic land navigation, how to properly hike, etc. But I also learned soft skills that are just as important such as, being mentally more durable, sucking up to physical and mental pain, discipline, etc.
Military training was a good introduction and foundation, in my opinion. I then added to it on my own as an outdoors man once i got out
Awesome video as always Lars!
That's a big puddle...
Yeah, I doubt there'd be many situations where you'd be completely cutoff from supplies in a military situation.
Funny story!
Good idea to put all the links in the description.
I agree. I was in Vietnam for thirteen months and fifteen days in I Corp, USMC. I think I would be safe to say that most of the guys I was around could not survive for week if they were cut off from their units. They would go ape shit crazy. Now there were some special forces guys, including Force Recon guys (Marines technically do not have special forces) that I knew who could survive in those jungles very well, and preferred to be in the bush, left alone to carry out their mission. They did not have stupid butter bars turning everything into a FUBAR.
woohoo great job as always my friend 🤗🤗🤗 !!
No camping really apply to military work . Military is either wait ,no noise ,no profile or go go push keep moving no matter what keep pressure on.
I prefer the camping , fishing ,hunting or just walking around in countryside enjoy plants wildlife .
What you said about military training makes a lot of sense Lars.actually you are not on your own but as a group.thanks Lars.
Military Survival training, I found was broken into 2 areas, first escape and evasion, which deals with POW escape and getting back to your own forces, the second is true Survival training, and we were trained in this during the 1970's, it was broken into summer and winter scenarios... The winter version was very limited and didn't give me much new info beyond what I'd learned prior to joining the army.
Hi Lars, good to see you go deep brother, 😋 i agree with the mili v outdoorsman training, in 14 years of regular service i had 3 weeks survival training with SF. That's it, the lot. lol. Regarding ancient trees i think the Yew tree is the oldest in the Northern Hemisphere mate, as i recall any how. Cheers Moose.
Very respected opinion
Adding this a bit late, but another difference between military "survival" and bushcraft, is that that the military tends to supply just about everything needed (including re-supply) whereas in bushcraft survival, it is up to the individual to supply the equipment needed for survival. Not always, but most of the time.
Just caught up with the last FOUR videos after a sojourn to Thailand where I walked the 2.5kms of the death railway through Hellfire Pass in 40 degrees Celsius. Anyway, very nice to watch a man in solitude with time to think things through and even though in a very remote part of Siberian Russia, there are always signs that man is about. I loved Russia during the winter months and was always glad to see Spring, but as Lars said during one of the clips. ''You don't want to be here during the summer, you'll get eaten alive''! and I agree albeit, the Mosquitoes don't seem to bother the locals too much and I have never found an ideal way to keep them away without covering myself from head to toe and even then, take your trousers down to do your ablutions and the little barstewards are biting your ass and inside your clothes. Somewhere in the book ''The Long Walk'' (not the film). when the group got near to Lake Baikal, there was a remedy written there about what to use to combat the Mossies, but I have long forgotten what it was and cannot find that passage now?
Anyway Lars, thank you again for entertaining videos as even if you do ramble on sometimes, it is still interesting viewing. BTW, I just ordered a couple of Silky saws and their marketing lady asked me how I knew about their product. I of course told them that I had never heard of them until I saw Lars from Survival Russia using them and I see you have a small clip on their website. So, if they're crap then, it is your fault. LOL.
That sounds like a good trip!
In the Movie they use a necklace made of Tansy. I doubt it works :) What they use in the book, I don't know.
No, Silky have a small clip of me on their site LOL :) They asked permission actually. You will not be disappointed. Go easy on the push, press down and pull, easy on the push, press down and pull... :)
Great upload and great advice. Thanks
wish I could fly out and see you.
many areas in your videos remind me of oregon
Great video once again, good topic, loving your videos mate
Interesting. My guess would've been that the main difference is that military training has to juggle getting found by friendly forces, with not being found by the enemy. Whereas equivalent civilian training generally isn't concerned with being found when you don't want to be found.
How long-term either is focused on likely varies for both types of survival training. Some SERE stuff at least briefly covers more long-term concerns, while conversely some civilian manuals and training programs focus mainly on short-term.
Always awesome!
The small amount of military training I had was very good in map and compass work, knowing how to shoot straight helps as does camouflage and concealment but the general attitude to food and water was (as the guy below said) if it isn't supplied, steal it.
Nice story....like allways....tipic militar....stay like u are...peace
Lars, the points you made about military survival training are exactly why i decided to throw out what I had previously learned. When the Oligarchs get done, and civilization is in ruins, there will be no supply trucks bringing in food, medicines, and comfort items. I'm sorry to say it, but those who rely strictly on military survival training alone will be little better off than those who are completely unprepared.
I think the advantage of being a civilian interested in survival /bushcraft is that you can make your own mind up what works and what doesn't , learning the skills and practicing them is the best way forward. As you say most military units give you a brief insight into the basics of survival but don't do continuous training.
dave watts I would agree with you about as a civilian you have the ability to learn what works and what doesn't by practicing the skills. From my experience in the Marine Corps, beyond a little land navigation and some basic first aid, any kind of survival training is non existent in most units. Some people do receive some training but they are a very small minority. For better or worse you are taught to rely on the logistics chain even though it doesn't always get things right. So even then learning skills and practicing them is up to you and on your time.
you can drive the SRV out there when you get those new bigger tires on it! take care out there brother!
Great camera work and editing. Yes, without equipment, supply, and the mission of course, why would the average grunt even be in the woods instead of the sleazy, off base tavern?
big fan!
My understanding of US SERE Training that it's much more woodsmanship and skills to stay alive in the woods for extended periods of time. I might be off. But that's what I was told.
Another good video lars
awesome mate
Hello sir.... once in one of your videos you talked a little bit about Russian politics and the nato situation and it really opened my eyes as a us citizen ... was wondering if you might do that again and talk about us/ Russian relations from your point of view.
The difference between military survival and outdoors men are very different. I heard many stories from my father and his soldiers during WWII and you could not believe how they were able to survive without water, food, warm weather clothing, lack of sleep and very little medical care as well as fighting the enemy.
Very true! Also, the modern civilian take on 'survival training' is very often seen as the ability to set up a shelter, light a fire, brew some tea, cook some food, and sleep in a sleeping bag. To me that is just some city people going camping, and I often wonder what they mean by calling it survival. I think Lars is basing his opinion on, from what I hear, his time as an engineer soldier, which is probably not really the most hardcore military training available anyway. Around the world there are many very highly skilled military units, usually infantry style units, who are not only absolute experts withing their combat role, but who have also received some of the most professional survival training that exists on the planet. Being Danish, Lars should certainly know of e.g. the Danish armed forces "Sirius Patrol", who are very highly skilled in terms of living, and functioning, under arctic conditions on Greenland.
@@_J.F_ My father said that you could not light a cigarette at night without Germans using 120 mm motars to destroy your position. Many soldiers froze to death or had severe frostbite due to lack of winter clothing and still had to fight the enemy. I believe that civilian survival and military survival are totally different. I enjoyed camping outside and did not have to worry about being under fire.
@@johnwakamatsu3391 If civilians go outdoors to spend time in the forest or the wilderness, how can it ever be about survival anyway? The best way for a civilian to survive is to stay at home where they have everything they need to survive. Simple really!
your right Lars,i learned more about real survival in boyscouts than i ever did downrange in the Army, get er done
awesome!!!
that's wicked!
We use to have a TV show called Dude Your Screwed where they would grab a guy from different special forces teams and survival experts and drop them off in different parts of the world and they would have to survive and try to find civilization to end the adventure. They all did pretty good. It didn't really matter what the expertise was. Special Forces do spend months training to survive in different environments. If they are not on a mission they are training. I'm not saying they are better but just as good because they are trained to survive no matter where they go in the world.
Lars wasn't knocking military survival training, only pointing out that it shouldn't be a mantra for civilian outdoor survival. In SERE and other military survival courses the primary danger is the enemy, so emphasis is placed on stealth, evasion, and plain endurance to get you out of the situation and hopefully rescued. Things like building fires and setting up snares require you to remain stationary and give away your position, so they are generally avoided. In civilian outdoor survival, the primary threats are nature and lack of supplies, so the approach is different. In that situation you _want_ to be found, so you remain stationary for as long as you can and do everything that you can to protect yourself from the elements and attract rescuers. Wilderness skills like building fires and finding wild edibles come into play. Endurance and certain outdoor skills like orienteering are used in both fields, but the focus of each type of training is different.
simonferrer . That is what I was trying to point out, but didn't word properly.
Spot on Simon :)
Do you explain the relationship between loggers and "your land" in any vids?
Do you have aspen in Russia? In Oregon, the aspen is a critical species that clusters in riparian areas. Its fire resistant and provides important habitat and shelter for animals during fires.
Military survival training is geared toward combat survival. Everything a soldier does must be tactical as to avoid giving away the unit's position, which means no cozy fire. Outdoor survival is geared toward straight up living. Staying warm and sheltered is the priority. A much more leisurely way to go when you don't have to worry about being shot or bombed.
Yes, Military survival is basically about staying undetected if caught behind enemy lines, until rescue is possible. No fires and low sound profile. This is some of the reasons Military survival is basically worthless for a civilian. Civilians also do not have to worry about OPFOR. A civilian want to be found.
also did the wind and cold do that to,the trees behind you?
was that a fish?
that sounds about right on the stop the truck it's full of stuff lol!!! it's hard even today we were trained to poop and Snoop and that still takes over at times here in the states ppl are scared of anybody walking around in camp with a weapon or camping iv been stopped police thought we were paramilitary training and made to leave lol so I can understand the military vrs. outdoorsmen differences stay safe brother oh you have raccoon dogs there to ?
In my opinion, military survival training is geared strictly towards emergency circumstances.
Hey, that is an awesome jacket. What is camo pattern and what is its country of origin? Thank you for all of the videos.
Rusty Rectum? Maybe drink some motor oil!
Great video as usual thanks Lars?
Lars, did you travel thru the Zone of Death or was that the Zone of Certain Death? Love your videos.
No not at all :) Those 2 zones are much closer to the homestead :)
Damn Skippy I’d stop that car at gunpoint😂
When you are out alone like this do you let someone know where you are going and how long you will be? Just in case you meet with some misfortune.
hey could you make a review of your jacket Please :)
That track looks like a wolverine ....
Great video again Lars. Don't come to the U.S. my wife will let you have it for the package I have on the way from Varusteleka. I need to order the lace up boots from Tropa42 but the Cyrillic is killing me. Any hints? Thanks

Thanks. I tried that it won't let me check out. Keeps giving me the an error page.
Tactical considerations are the difference between military and civilian survival. Simple outdoor living is another story. Much easier when people are not looking to shoot you!
Watched the movie Jeremiah Johnson today. Your the Russian version (now, without a beard). Good video as always.
Schteve Ven awesome movie another good oldie is "man in the wilderness"
Boz Boz Yea good one. I have that one.
Looks like the military have the same doctrines wherever you go.
Its been a day with no video and Im having symptoms of withdrawal
I know it's got to be my imagination but I was Bear tracks look like it's walking on two legs...
hey do you know what's going on. after our navy just attacked Assad's air Base??
what camo pattern is that jacket
Partizan M, SS-Leto with the Autumn side out. It's a Russian adaption of one of the WWII SS camo patterns used by the Russian military and the National Guard ( Former MVD) Troops
I'd have to correct you on the part that there are no survival training that does not include all times of the year.There are special forces survival training (part of 2 year sf course) that includes all season survival training and some minor bushcraft skills and trapping all kinds of animals also learning about plants and the courses last as little as 15 days to as much as a month.But it's important to say that while there you are not only learning you are practicing allready know infantry roles such as patrolling,camp security ext ext.And you do this every year... multiple times.
That was precisely what I meant. 15 to 30 days of training in a given environment at a given time of year, is basically nothing. Yet better than nothing of course.
What I also meant with my remark was, that soldiers do not have the time to be "Outdoors-men", as they are busy doing other things :)
Survival Russia Don't have the time and some after they are done don't want to be haha
Uhhh. Bear tracks?
Looks like wolverine tracks to me
I wouldn't want to run into either one........
Ah , military training... expect nothing, prepare for less....everything else is a bonus!!
mand..du blir bedre og bedre...love your stuff ..all the best from mother denmark ;) hehe as you know..in denmark you would probably be arrested if you walked around in Rold skov with a knife and an axe lol x( lighting up a mega log fire lol
Badger prints
rectum rust is no joke. Drink strong tea.
You should make a video in russian with subtitles, would be fun.
lol51329 sounds like to much work
to speak Russian? or write up some titles?
The latter
BIG FOOT
where is a small bear there is a the big mama bear! So run for your life!
So are you applying for the Alone show? It's $500,000. I would love to see some people from Russia on there. I think the world would be shocked by how strong Russian people are.
No I am not applying for Alone :)
My 10 yr old son wants to join the US military, i live in the woods but he and his mom lives a town, i will let him know, thanks!
🔥🔥🔥🔥👍
we need a Go Fund Me so you can have a new snow machine
