I took a semester of first aid training in high school and one of the chief things I remember our teacher telling us was never to try removing an impaling object from an injury — let the pros IE, a surgeon handle it because it’s holding back leaking blood. I think of him telling us that every time I see a scene where someone pulls a sharp object of themselves or someone else. He was a great teacher too — funny dude, made the class interesting but still taught us a lot.

This guy's show is great. One of the better things I've seen on History/Discovery/Animal Planet. He doesn't mythologize survivalism or the indigenous people where he is. I loved it.

[ellomate..]

I am a HUGE fan of Hazen. Man not only is a survival beast, but has the most sensible understanding of different cultures. A lot of respect to you mate from Australia.

I thought quicksand was going to be a much bigger problem in my life when I was a kid. I'm 35, and I've yet to encounter it.

[brantfrans]

It’s really cool his friends worked on Cast Away. That was a fantastic movie. Tom Hanks is a tremendous actor.

4:17 shoutout to the editor for putting “eddy lines” in a box but still not explaining what it is

[Gettingbento]

Big fan, his Primal Survivor shows are great and he’s still alive so you know he’s good. Glad to see him branch out.

So, I have to disagree about piranhas. I worked with the red bellies in an aquarium and I have to say that feeding them was quite tricky. They are terribly skittish and will spook quite easily, so it always took a while before they would start feasting on even the most bloody morsel. On the contrary, the vegetarian species of piranhas was quite curious and would happily nibble on anything that came into their tank (they don't have sharp teeth so it wasn't dangerous at all).

Arnold wasn't hunting an animal, he was hunting an alien.

[AnEarAche]

HEY! This guy was my high school outdoor living teacher! DOPE.

[thetwitchywitchy]

My man Jeremy Wade tested the piranha myth in one of his episodes, he explained their behavior in depth and why they would attack a person and then jumped in a pool of them

[USNBOT]

Semantical comment: at 5:44 he said "poisonous snake" and we should all know he meant "venomous snake". It's not like the threat was getting poisoned from eating a random snake in a tree, the threat was getting bitten by a VENOMOUS snake in a tree.

[HowyadoingHowyadoing]

This is the first time ive seen piranhas not eat people in seconds like a cartoon

[kimgroslouis]

Can you believe that the guy is 50 yo??? Because he is. I just googled him since I had no idea who he was before this video. Quite impressive. A biologist who loves extreme adventures, that's amazing.

[hohuy]

This man and Matt Graham are my most favorite survival instructors. It's great to see him here ❤

[nour]

Quality of these rating videos dropped. Clips are only a few seconds short and this guy did a lot of describing instead of providing his insight. Don’t get me wrong, the guy’s cool but felt like the video could’ve been much better.

[Bino]

Gotta love the experts in the comments ready to point out the poisonous comment because thats the one thing they know about survivalism lol

[brennonmelvin]

“I’m a huge snake guy” proceeds to say that a snake could be poisonous

[deeanna]

I was told through my entire childhood how dangerous quicksand and piranha were, then learnes as an adult that it was largely myth. Now I find out the childhood myths are true after all!

[DarkJester]

Poisonous snakes isn't something you need to be particularly worried about in a survival situation, and then only when figuring out what's safe to eat. What he means is VENOMOUS snakes!

A good mnemonic is "if it bites you and you die, it's venomous, if you bite it and you die, it's poisonous!".
