Sometimes I wish I’d keep your tips in a journal… and I wish that I would be stranded in the woods

Bonus if your branch piece is cut from a tree with known antibacterial and/or antimicrobial properties, like cedar, pine, or willow. Leeching might be minimal, but every little bit helps in a survival situation.

if i bring a knife, plastic bags and zip-ties to the wilderness i might as well just bring a pot and a fire starter to just boil my water...

[nedflandersmustache]

Makes sure you take the water from a running source. If it's stagnant like a puddle or pond, it will be much more dangerous and prone to disease

I enjoy these a lot. I love the fact that you specify in almost every video that idea about clear/dirty water being safe/dangerous, really helps to cement it. I'm glad I can experience my everyday life without the worries of nature killing me (even though it will due to aging)

If I'm stranded on an island I'm taking this guy with me

Id be dead before my survival instincts could kick in😂

The original methods in the Old days were only getting water that dripped down through stone overhangs, from springs or digging into sand next to a water source & waiting for the grit to settle. Unfortunately, we destroyed many springs, privatized others & sold all the sand/ redirected rivers for other purposes & buried the sand or otherwise caused it to erode away.

They used to say that "safe" water had insects in it. If nothing was in it, it could be dangerous.

I'll still filter it or use tablets in it though.

But if you find spring with running, crystal clear water then better boil and drink that. In my country springs are clean and people drink spring water without boiling it.

Folding fabric a few times makes a good pre-filter to catch bigger stuff like sand or plant material

Bro really spawned in knowing the secrets to life

[AldaaGlitch]

If clean water is deadly. Cant you just put dirt in it to make it dirty and safer 🤔

[Doc]

Nah, I ain't waiting from evening to midnight just for my water, imagine while waiting a bear is next to me 💀

[Alternative_Editor.]

This dude has tought me so much on how to make fires and survive out in the wilderness.

[SHFTR-mpzd]

First boil the water wait till it’s cooled down then filter it

[brianluffman]

This man should make a survival book and have it contain every tip he has ever mentioned.

[Gastrictuba]

Remember always filter and boil your water before drinking.
