    Respect man. So many people on TH-cam go out on a weekend survival "challenge" and say they have no supplies but anyone who's ever been truly dehydrated knows what it looks and they hardly ever look like they are truly without water. Again, anyone who knows the deal could recognize your shrunken ghostly white lips which were screaming "this body needs water ASAP" and you can't fake that. Thanks for keeping it real but please stay safe. We don't wanna lose you over a challenge video mate.

    people never realize how hard it is to walk a straight line in the bush. Knowing how to read time with shadow is very key. This dude was trained somewhere because unless you grow up in the bush people dont know this.
    Edit and making that fire is extremely hard. It's is so intense. You literally have to push yourself to the limit sometimes. I felt for this guy

    • @AUniqueHandleName444
      @AUniqueHandleName444 2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Man, interesting callouts. I grew up in forested mountains in America, spent lots of time outdoors. It definitely shocks me the basic stuff that a lot of people from cities don't do intuitively. Like they don't even know how to walk on a mountain without slipping and falling, and they don't seem to be able to see the paths available to them or know how to find their way back. It's about 90% unconscious and 10% conscious.
      But it hasn't really occurred to me that the outback would be a totally different beast. I do think I could work in a straight line without man made navigation aids (something you pick up just being in nature almost anywhere), but it does make me wonder the other, small things that people who are actually native to the bush would do without thinking that wouldn't even occur to me.

    • @brandondrew4914

      As a physicist his way of finding east and west is incorrect as if you continue to mark every hour you'll find you don't have a line but a parabola and your actual east west would be if you measured the same amount of time difference relative to noon such as 10 am and 2 pm or 9 am and 3 pm. If you don't do this you've just called east and west a short line that somewhere on a curve at random and grossly inaccurate.

    • @brandondrew4914
      @brandondrew4914 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      By his methods the later past noon the farther right of actual north he would be traveling and similarly with earlier except left as it relates to the actual compass.

    • @brandondrew4914
      @brandondrew4914 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The beginning and end of your parabola would be marked by sunrise and sunset which would give you the most amount of data and therefore the most accurate measurement of East and west as we know to be true. If you knew where on that parabola you were you could adjust for left and right mathematically amd you can by figuring out the length ot your arc over a certain period of time as the farther from noon you get the longer the arc.

    Tip: if you have shoelaces make a bow with it and use it to rotate the stick. Make the stick shorter and put and piece of wood in the top to push it down. It will ignite faster and less tiring.

I also love your respect for animals and nature in general, these solo survival episodes are my fav! Seeing how you use nature to get a sense of direction, making fire from scratch, mosquito repellent, the ingenius traps to catch fish, absolutely amazing! I'm always watching your back for crocs in the water, stay safe out there man, YEAH DAWGIES! AWOO!!!

    Don't know if this has been said before, but when doing the spindle technique to make fire, you can create two loops in a small rope or shoelaces for your thumbs and run the string on top of the spindle being used. It keeps your hands in place for continuous spinning and helps from not getting blisters and shredding your hands up. Great job man! That's tough work!

      Yes! I mentioned something similar. I’ve use a stick that resembles a bow used for arrows. I used a shoe lace from my boot then get a small piece of wood with a small indentation in it to hold it at the top with enough pressure to keep it in place. Push the bow in a horizontal movement back & forth while holding the spindle vertical. As long as your materials are dry, you will have a fire with not much effort or energy

      John Plant on Primitive Technology makes it look so easy. I know it isn't because I have tried it. I reckon he must have hands made of leather by now.

    It’s so weird how it felt like this was 20 minutes. I loved this video, when I saw it was an hour I was so suprised but this was amazing

    Thank you for this, my absolute favorite channel on TH-cam. You've inspired me to start fishing and it's been really really fun. Looking forward for your fishing knots video! Much love from Portugal ❤️

    The gratitude this guy has puts us all to shame in our insulated lives, with so little, the smallest of things is a big win, top bloke.

    He's running round looking for supplies, hours of hikes, climbing, trying and failing to build a fire and for a day and a half he doesn't drink any fluids under the hot desert sun, madness

    Massive respect, most people that does this would have some kind of backup water or food off cam but you did it legitimately. And start a fire legitimately without a fire starter kit. 💪🏻
