10 KILLER Survival Fails

Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

Greg Do you not get orange dog berries in BC? They grow in bunches on a tall tree, taste bitter and sour but by God they make an amazing dogberry wine

Gotta respect a man who tells his viewers to fact check his work.

[BoomFootShot]

Dude, the fact that you pretty much immediately get into your list, instead of bloviating just to hear yourself, makes you a genius and better than 98% of other creators today. You’re a scholar and a gentleman!

[BernieVtuber]

Greg actually cares about our well being. I like Greg and you should too.

[milorprdy]

You could be my dad's twin....makes me tear up because I lost him, but so glad I found your no-nonsense videos!

[meljohn]

Most of YouTube is pure entertainment, which has its place. You Sir, on the other hand, educate and inspire.

[phillipg]

Fact check me. - Greg 👏
Man has no ego, no agenda other than to get people to think and think critically. 👏

[mattanderson]

I love that you didn't smear those authors because of their mistakes. The internet is full of people trying to build themselves up by tearing others down.

[SomeDude.]

I have a lot of respect for this guy. He does his research and he tests it out. His knowledge is very valuable.

My Grandfather was a member of the Mig Mog nation (Eastern Canada). He taught me much of my bushcraft skills as I was growing up. Greg's approach, "check it for yourself", as well as showing the plants etc. is exactly as my Grandfather taught. Almost to the point of being eerie. Greg's gentle, confident approach and done without EGO. You Sir are a True Gentleman. Respect. Well done Greg, I'm subscribed!

[codycarabotta]

Why did I never see this guy before? What a wealth of survival knowledge this man has. I respect that immensely. This guy reminds me of my good friend if he were a survivalist nut instead of a mechanical nut, and about 15 years older. And a bit more social. Ill be watching alot of these videos over time. I have much to learn.

[Chakeis]

Never stop doing what you love Greg, we'll be here alongside you.

[shawnbeasley]

You were my favorite person on the season of Alone that you did! Never listen to the hate comments. You are the man, period.

[CatalinaFOIA]

1:55 😂 "happy little tree" I wasn't expecting Bob Ross 👏 Awesome

[Alexandr-San]

How true about the moss. I am from Siberia, and as a child I noticed that you can't navigate by the moss on a tree. You will simply get lost. As for all sorts of plants, mushrooms and berries, we have one rule: "if you don't know, don't take it." Every time during the mushroom season I refresh my knowledge. Although I know many more edible types of mushrooms than I collect, I don't tempt fate.

[theMikeness]

"google what I´m saying" That, is a statement of a person who ACTUALLY wants to teach you something. Love your content man, have a good one!

[jayjay-iosv]

Very informative and straight to the point. Also a humble. He's not making a video where he talks about unnecessary things or just talking to hear himself. Thank you sir. Very well made video. Straightforward and couldn't find anything false information.

[Lehmin_oma_kanava]

Im from finland and i have been laughing hysterically many times when i watch survival skill videos on youtube. But this video was different. This guy knows what he talking.

[joeylandry]

School is now in session, Professor Ovens will be speaking today on how not to die of ignorance. Greg is one of my favorite people on YouTube and I’ve watched him since his first appearance on alone.

[jessetoineeta]

This man's candor is quite evident...coupled with his observational skills-and also completely selfless to share a skillset that takes decades to hone.
