Primitive Technology: Spear Thrower
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- A spear thrower is a simple tool that allows the user to throw a spear further than by hand alone. It is a small length of wood with a hook in the end that fits into a notch in the back of the spear. The extra power and distance gained by the thrower is due to the extra leverage it gives.
I cut a small branch with a minor branch coming off the side. I shaped the minor branch into a spur to fit into the end of the spear. The thrower was about 65 cm long.
For the spear, I cut a thin sapling approximately 2 m long and about 1.5 cm thick. I carved a cup in the end of the spear for the spur to fit into. Then I bound the back of the spear with bark fiber to prevent the wood from splitting. The head of the spear was simply charred in the fire and scrapped against a rock to sharpen it (during practice the head regularly breaks so only a sharpened tip is used to save work).
To use the spear thrower, the spur of the thrower is inserted into the cup of the spear. The spear and thrower are held at about shoulder height. The thrower is quickly flicked forward and the spear propelled towards the target. As the spear leaves the thrower it bends slightly storing energy until it jumps of the spur. During flight, the flexible spear wobbles and oscillates paradoxically giving the spear some stability in flight.
The throws in the video show what can be done in one afternoon of practice (my arm got sore and I wanted to start on other projects). I hit the target a few times at a distance 15 m. It is more powerful than a spear thrown by hand alone but is difficult to learn. The spear I made could have been a fraction lighter and so would have greater speed. Another improvement would be to add flights to the spear so it would be more accurate and fly straighter (like an atlatl).
The extra energy gained from a Woomera's (Australian spear thrower) use has been calculated as 4 times that of compound bow (Wikipedia). It's easy to make (this took less than a day) but requires lots of training to become accurate.

I like the honesty; he doesn't just edit out the misses. Inspires trust and more informative.
bubble king it was to show the durability of the spear
more accurate than the sling. better chance of eating
dunno, sling could be more intimidating than throwing spear/javelin
+Ro Davids I think the sling would be more accurate than the spear thrower with practice.
xD
Ancient UK warriors had a similar device they used to target their enemies legs at the midpoint. It's said there has never been a more horrible noise on a battlefield than the wails of their victims. You can still hear the sorrowful shrieking to this day, of those Brit knee spears.
I used to be an adventurer, like you, but I took an arrow in the knee.

It’s surprising how accurate it is even with little practice. Just imagine the accuracy you could achieve with a better spear and more practice.
don't wanna face someone that relies on this skill for survival!
Or a generation of practice.
back then people probably regularly just spent there whole life time to make an amazing spear
@@mvoscotty2901 In 1994 the 300 000 year old schöningen spears were found in Schöningen, Germany. They are the oldest complete wooden weapons. They are credited to homo heidelbergensis, the last common ancestor of homo (sapiens) sapiens aka us and homo (sapiens) neanderthalensis aka the Neandertal. And while they are ancient and credited to a ancestor of humans that was believed to be a mute caveman they show resemblence to modern olympic javelins and display intellegent craftsmenship and that the prehumans were actually intelligent hunters.
@@christopherstein2024 This is something that always bothered me.
People think that primitive humans were somehow innately dumber than modern humans. All we really have over primitive homo sapiens is accumulated knowledge and technology.

I was reading in a history book about the spear thrower and I wanted to see how it was used, because from the image given it was not very clear how it actually works. So I googled it and found this video. I am really amazed by your technique and skill so that I started binge-watching them. I think you have the most amazing content from all over TH-cam. I respect your patience and hard work. Keep going man. I subscribe.
Totally agree, and what is more he doesn't film things in dreadful vertical strip mode, like so many nerds on here that are spoiling TH-cam.

We live in a wolrd that some can push a button and ruin your life no electricity no water no food no jobs... And this person show us how a free man can achieve incredible things with his own hands as our ancestors did. Now i can not comprehend the mindset of someone who "disliked" this video, as every society every data or computer program has some bugs and errors, I want you to know if you "disliked" this video you are the error of human society.
Some people simply do something bad on purpose. I've seen people breaking snowmen that kids made, writing something on a freshly painted wall, etc.
all typed from a computer nice try tho
Even if the Word "hater" has become really vage and laughable,this one is a true case of jealousy or stupidity of the person that decides to dislike such masterpieces.Such a shame really....
'disliking' something on the internet. Such an alien concept. Would you like us all to like the same things? Personally, a difference in opinion can be quite important if its conveyed in the proper manner. Your comment about someone disliking a simple video on youtube being an error of human society? Spend some time thinking about who really is more of an 'error'.
inb4 anyone else says it, its possible this person is a clever troll, but the point still stands, yes?
So true!
I could imagine someone trying to fight this guy and he just casually makes an artillery canon out of leaves and sticks

I'm to lazy for that
funny!
it would have food on it fat boy
just thinking that actually haha
great name lol
get this man a tv show... i wanna see him interact with primitive tribes, him teaching them new stuff
Huh?
lol.. they would be teaching him
The remaining primitive tribes in the world aren't very kind to outsiders
just remember Australia aboriginals are the last culture to come out of the Stone Age only around 250 years ago
Uzi Panti Leave em be.
better aim than with any of your improvised weapons so far. this is your best hope at a rabbit by far.
Primitive Technology love it I wish I could do that
Please dont hunt little rabbits :(
Kel Capiral kill dem rabbits
Similar concept. The atlatl had fletching to help stabilize the projectile if I remember correctly. Spear throwers are pretty ancient, predating the concept of a bow and arrow and are fairly widespread in many different cultures from mesoamerica to Africa and apparently Australia as well.
i bet they're delicious when you havent eaten for a couple whole days
When you no like Grug cave painting, but Grug pull out atlatl...
woah grug, dont pull out the club
When will he invent language?
when he meets fellow caveman worth talking to
Cave woman, no doubt.
When he meets Andrew Ucles and has to figure out a way of teaching him how to smelt iron from pond scum in exchange for learning how to catch rabbits with snakes.
WORTH talking to? Could be a while. Better make more videos.
Worth talking to? Doubtful...
after each and each video I'm slowly realizing that this guy has the patience of a god
Not only does he do all the things we see, but he has to set up the shots and edit it all. amazing work.

Give this guy a TV show god damnit
He would have to talk.. The silence is part of the magic.
He wouldn't necessarily have to talk while you watch, as long as he explained it afterwards I think it'd be ok. But yeah, if he never talks at all I don't think anyone would consider it for "TV" though, as far as that goes... can't we just get rid of TVs yet? Put everything on the internet and call it good, spend the extra money on getting the internet to more people xD
Make it into a TV show and let David Attenborough narrate it!
10/10. Would buy the DVD.
-IGN
Don't you see that this is way better than TV? On TV this video would have been a 30 minute segment. There would have been ads, there would have been a narrator, there would have been dramatic closeups of things and there would have been lost and lots of repeated material. TV is fucking shite.
Nah on youtube he can actually control the format and not be rushed to make episodes.
PSA: If you didn't already know, turn on subtitles/ closed captions - its a revelation :)
Imagine how many other people watched the video before reading this
Like me 😢
Im always slightly embarrassed when I watch this guys videos. I have a fantastic bug-out bag, a great set of knives, and the skills to survive. However, he just needs to show up, in his shorts, with no tools, and he can build a village. Im carrying 20kgs of equipment to survive, and hes wearing 6 ounces of shorts, and he can rebuild civilization. wtf.
No shoes on, as well. I struggle to get through the front yard to the mailbox barefoot, let alone traipsing around in the outback.
i hear you mate
He also lives in Australia. If he weren't there, he probably wouldn't know the local wildlife and resources and not do nearly as well as he would where he lives now.
I'm sure he could survive ... it's really not that different anywhere else
yeah but he lives in Australia.... home of like everything that can kill you
he stares apocalypse in the eyes, and it backs down

Spear throwers are accurate up to 120 ft or so, but the world record is 848 ft.
This can go way further than 50ft
You should make some primitive musical instruments then record it and use it in future videos :)
I think that would actually be quite cool.
The start of the video where he was knocking the tree made me think of that too
this is the worst idea ever
AccidentalBroadcast tribe member here, so cool to see you on this channel kalani! Good idea on the instruments. Hope to see you back on Athena soon!
guppietank15 booyah!
A few years ago I made a spear that was much thicker and heavier than that one. For some stupid reason me and my friend would toss it back and forth like a football. I didnt realize how dangerous it was what i was doing until my friend launched it perfectly like an actual native. As i saw the tip of that spear in slow motion heading right towards me I saw my life before my eyes. I threw myself to the ground, when i opened my eyes I saw that spear buried into the ground a foot to my right. The spear was about 4 ft in length 1/3 of it was in the ground.
You're a special kind of stupid.
Well yes, I was a kid. Its called youth
My friend and I use to grab big boulders and drop them on each others nuts. I didn't realize how dangerous it was and now I can't climax unless I'm being punted in the nads.
Exzist I was using that I made out slingshot out of bungee cords and it flew back and hit my friend in the eye and he started bleeding out his eye. By the way we where slingshotting rocks and sticks in to our neighbors yard. Good times
Nah youth isn't that far in the retarded area. You're a special kind of youth mate
This "spear thrower" is known as an Atlatl. It expanded the range and power of a simple spear immensely. Great build.

A "spear thrower" was a helpful device crafted by the Aztecs. They called it, an Atlatl. A much better tool than an arm. It makes the throw stronger and faster.
Wait, I thought the people that called it an "Atlatl" were the Aztecs? They're not exactly Indian.

I found out the pump drill was hard to stay in the holes good. I personally thought myself this would be a great way, but is was hard to keep the spindle in the holes and it kept jumping out. Was that a problem you faced as well?
And also you became petty good at it.

That's not camping anymore. That's called building a new society...
Bear Grylls is not fake. Yes he is making a show. But he was a SAS soldier.
I know it’s years too late and John Plant won’t see this comment, but I highly recommend reading The Life and Adventures of William Buckley, the escaped convict who lived with the Wothaurong Tribe of Australian Aborigines from 1803 to 1835 to the point where when he again made contact with Europeans for the first time he’d forgotten how to speak english. He was 24 when he first was found and accepted by the Wothaurong and 56 when he encountered John Batman’s exploration party.
He learned to hunt as skilfully as the Wothaurong and in his book he mentions they used spear throwers like this and could hit kangaroos on the run at 40 meters. They used 3 kinds of spears. One for hunting which was about 7 feet long, one for inter tribal warfare which was about 10 feet long and one other which I think was ceremonial for corroborees.
I love You man for doing this instead of sitting home and prentending to be a boss like the rest of the world. Thank You for doing this for us.
Your Atlatl wasn't dried and cured properly. It will warp as it dries. You should have skinned the bark and let it cure and straightened it as it dried. Also, adding a streamer to the tail would have given you far better accuracy. Finally, hardening the tip does not require charring however I don't believe you charred the wood too deep and the blackness was superficial. Finally, adding a downward curvature to the atlatl handle would give you greater strength and control in aiming.
it was just a quick video. i'm sure if he wanted to do it properly he would do. It's good to know though should i ever attempt something like this :)
I'll be the first to say he knows what he's doing. I've had discussions with him about details before. I just enjoy pointing things out that come to mind. I'm a big supporter of this channel.

I love these. I'm part Native American and learned that these things were originally used to hunt mammoth. But the Aztecs loved them because they were lethal when used in volleys against large armies. Raining spears on the enemy.
Master of 16, True master of atlatl need only one shaft.
If u hit him in the eye maybe ;/
im 2% victim too. Dont get indigenous with me.
The mammoth hunters did not use atatals as their points were much larger and wider at the base where hafting was done. They used lances. I have never seen a hafted dart point or arrow point that was not exactly as wide as the base or the distance between side notches. The big game hunters had to run the points 18 inches into the chest cavity of a mammoth to kill it and a atatal will not allow this. The first atatals were used in the early archaic based on the type, size and weight of a point. Putting a large Clovis point on an atatal will not work as the fore shaft that fits into the dart is too narrow to handle the stress.
A vast majority of points people call spear heads were actually knives and a dart point has a base that is no wider than the foreshaft into which it was hafted. No dart point was over three inches at the most and a vast majority were much smaller. i base this on throwing an atatal and at what point the projectile point is too large for being effective when thrown. Maximine effective killing range is 40 yards at longest. Physics have not changed over the years and the Indians knew very well what worked and did not.
Need a dart point hafted on a fore shaft. Sorta like bullets as when the hunter threw the dart the projectile remained in the animal and the dart recovered and another dart placed into the dart shaft for a second hit if needed. Point is the hunter carried several hafted points on a foreshaft when hunting.

Yeah it's crazy how dependant we are if we think about it. I read about a guy who made a chicken sandwich literally from scratch. Meaning, he planted the wheat for the bread, raised and slaughtered the chicken, got salt from seawater. All in all he paid around 500$ and it took him about 6 months and the sandwich didn't even taste that good aparently.
unless he ate what he planted himself in that half a year. he didn't really make that sandwich himself. but yep. more to your point. we have climbed pretty high up the ladder now.

The most beautiful thing in life is to live in the woods to return to the original
Alright, I have returned to my family home in the woods. This shit right here needs to be attempted. I might not be able to make a metal forge out of Aussie mud magic but I can goddamn well sharpen a couple of sticks.
Well played sir, you are a champion among men.
Update: The attempt has been made. The throwing stick is pretty cool gets a lot of leverage. I've put about an hour of throwing with it and I'm going to try a few different types of spears. My current one might be too large and heavy (as well as has a nasty bow to it that makes the spear torque around sideways) to get a proper distance but it hits hard. Tip will break clean off even if you fire harden so pretty sweet.

If technology died, say tomorrow, we would still have modern manual tools. However, few people know how to use them correctly, let alone the fact that most of them would die.
Personally, I know how to handle such tools but I've never been in a survival situation and so adaptation is key.

My history teacher shows your videos everyday in class! Everyone loves your channel!!
So many shows I watched and people have problems making fire, not him in a matter of seconds and it is done. ❤
And in most of his videos it's also in one take
Now let's get those clowns
I got several pairs of thongs ready to whoop them clowns
poor America !! I guess this is its final season
a clown was spotted in Australia. it's going global
why the fuck there even are clowns
The Restless Ant really !!
This guy taught Bear Grylls everything he knows.
hay lắm
Most verbal ever 2:08
Omg he breathed
SUZANNE SUTTLER
????
SUZANNE SUTTLER q
He showed his vocal chords. Unsub
I havent been here in a while but man am I so happy for you and even the outdoor community! This is one of the very few channels that gets the views and subs it deserves! If not, THEE only channel.
I love how creative yet simple these are, I never knew how any of this primitive technology was made. Well played my good sir.
Are you going to build things during the winter?
you are a god
That sounds intense. I know you get asked this question a fair amount, but do you know if you're going to be able to upload more frequently?
Primitive Technology keep going you are awsome
I would imagine not since most of his videos take a very long time to make. I'm pretty sure he's mentioned some of the bigger builds took weeks to do.
I've read "cyclones" as "cyclops", imagined one eyed giants tearing off trees and throwing them around. And thought "well, this sounds REALLY dangerous"
I'm not a smart man.
You should go on Naked and Afraid.. Show them how it's done..
nobody watches television anymore
nk
Yea nobody watchs "television networks" anymore... But we most definitely watch shows from our phones and through the internet.. lol I'd watch him on their and I'm sure you would too.. lol
You can't go on naked and afraid if you're neither naked or afraid.
+Geedygeedy you just wanna see him naked
This is the Aztecs & Mayans technique and I’m feeling so proud that the rest of the world are using it, there are even competitions around the world, the only thing that makes me sad is that in Mexico only very few people knows about how important is this knowledge.
The oldest atlatl was found in France. I think all ancient cultures used it.
Man you're ripped. You have some sort of caveman gym there? :D
Nah he just spends time outside
nah he still have lower belly fat
99% of people have lower belly fat...
You have lower body fat,bruh.
+Elliot Maverick I don't have any fat at all
Yea you look like christian Bale from the side
Alan Duking Zeng Ha I didn't notice that
h
jjhi
jjhiy
what about Manuel Ferrara?
I really like your videos and I like how this was conveniently posted on my birthday
happy birthday
Happy birthday
Leafy_Cynical happy birthday
Happy Birthday man
Happy brithday sir
Mans out here respecting our ancestors by keeping their knowledge alive.
That's awesome! I've read that spear throwing like way isn't at all easy. How long did it take for you to get that accurate with it, consistently?
CULTURAL APPROPRIATION!
Throwing spears with an atlatl isn't too difficult, just gotta dial in where to throw and get the form down
dude, make a videou about the smudge fires
I am interested in this too will ask the black guy I know
Tjapukai in Cairns?! Absolute legend.
Make a primitive submachine gun
primitive trebuchet would be better
nice
He could conceivably make a rapid fire bolt gun. JoergSprave did it.
Harry Balzak yes!
He could be able to make a flintlock musket, given a bit of iron
So this is Tarzan right?
XD
he does wish it
Menace you can call him that
nope(tarzan is not real)
УрварааеррараалруурвваеееррражаааMenace
the Aztec-mayan civilizations had something like that, it was called the Atlatl and it was a military grade weapon for them
imagine instead of the most popular person from your town being a professional sports player or someone in show business, but instead the man who could throw the best spear, the one who hit the target, every time.
*1:11** Why didn't you use that cord drill you've made before?*
maid
In a previous comment he said it was to keep practise up
"It's good to keep up practice as this is an easy skill to lose"
that sound that he does with the hands is so cringy >.
exactly what I wanted to ask!
The fact that this guy use no modern tools other than sharp stones made him superior than other primitive youtubers
Finally a video that is 100% natural and in the wild. You deserve an Oscar
This guy is good! I tried to do this in my backyard. I will never try it again.
This guy doesn't sleep....He waits.
+jim jimjim
he was hibernating
jim jimjim uyui)l
Aka meditating
laglag
😂
The atlatl has to be my favorite primitive weapon of all time.
So easy to make, so easy to use, super effective!
I still dont get how this guy gets dislikes
The Dredomer6 well there are no complete video with only likes
carl warior why not?
The Dredomer6 you know in this wolrd there is god and devil good and evil right and wrong if there was likes there got to be some dislikes
Its just probably the spear lobby trying to take down this guy's fame.
Contrarians
At 1:12, why do you still use that method for fire starting? Why not use the cord/pump drill for firestarting that you made some videos ago?
he explained that the firedrill can wear out and he also wanted to keep skilled with other methods
Also calluses fade.
also because he may not have done that yet he's said in the past these videos are in no way in chronological order.
yeah I got to hear that
he's just teaching us to do survival things ;)
The way he put text for the narration is genious. This dude has a good taste in building emotion.
This guy is probably one of the best paid youtubers, heard he gets a basket of berries every full moon.
