Nifty, neat! You can't call it a sucess until you make squirrel friends, start a squirrel family and eat what they eat. Wish I were that agile in a tree. A guy in another video said going higher in the tree reduces the mosquito problem. Enjoyed your adventure.
I once tried that.....fell out though. I do think you could fix the mosquito problem primitively with mud. Great video as always and maybe you can give it another go soon!
Mud tends to dry and crack then fall off and they still know you're there and buzz all over. It's going to take some experimenting but I think there's a way,
So is the contest judged or is it based on votes? I watched a few of the competitor videos and... well let's just say that if the contest is judged you should be packing your bags.
The production company has a panel of judges that decide and I think Les Stroud has the final say in it. Yeah a lot of the other entries are terrible. The votes are basically just to get people involved on social media.
Timothy Raley Oh that's awesome. Of course who knows what they'll pick; they may actually want some ridiculous weirdo. But it looks like you have a real shot at it.
This was a fun romp Tim! As a fan I hope in the future you'll take another go at sleeping in the rough, maybe figure a way to repel the mosquitos in a modern or primitive way? Sleeping in trees is not something I hear about often so this was mildly interesting indeed. For self filming your commentary was good and you are doing better on the camera shots/angles. I appreciate your style man. I used to make bows, try to sleep outside without a tent (always freaked out by harmless things like raccoons/mink that terrorize the psyche at night), and I still am always looking for snakes and lizards. Thank you for the unique content, its been pleasant, and I hope you keep it coming in 2015.
Thanks. Great adventure!
Good you enjoyed it!

This would probably be recommended in 3 years
Haha glad you found it!
Great video! Wish i lived in the country! I live in NYC
get out of the city! Thanks lol
Hey, I recognize that tree. Good job Timothy!
Thanks Baba :)
You might think about a safety line ( life line ) incase you wake up on the ground with a broken neck.
I don't tend to move around in my sleep. That is a risk to consider though.
How did that tree branch not snap I'm 137 pounds and I like to take naps in trees and I have to sleep on a thick tree branch about 6.5 or 7 feet
In the air
Oak is pretty strong. I probably weighed 160 then.
@@PrimitiveTim I lay on spruce and pine
Dude, you're going to ready for the Zombie Apocalypse. Cool vid!

***** Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised but I don't think Les will want some nut on his show.
looks terrifying
+stone age skills lol, it's really not that bad... just have to get used to being in trees and trust the tree
+Primitive Tim i believe i can fly... I believe that i can sleep in a tree

Mosquitoes are a major issue that I need to solve in any case. I have some ideas, they just need to be put to the test.
plasticspine mud dries and cracks and falls off.
Please can you do this again and stay overnight! It’s such a good idea!!
I may have to revisit this concept in the future where it may make sense.
Nice video Horton. :P
IamNemoN01 Thanks! Horton? As in the elephant?
Timothy Raley Yeah it is. I couldn't resist, hehe. fs04.androidpit.info/a/36/94/horton-hatches-the-egg-369427-h900.jpg
IamNemoN01 Hahaha! I gotcha now. Didn't really know the story myself, had just heard of it.
It should be on a tree not in a tree of course you cant sleep in a tree
+Faldi Calvin Wijiono if the tree i hollow you could
+Dominick Williams i slept in a tree once its fuckin gross man bugs are everywhere especially termites
Faldi Calvin dang man you did it wrong you have to burn the tree a little so then all the bugs get burnt alive
