1) Cutting Tool (knife, axe, saw, etc)
2) Cordage (paracord, bank line, climbing rope, etc.)
3) Container (water bottle, cook pot, pack, etc.)
4) Combustion (lighter, farro rod, flint and steel, etc.)
5) Cover (shelter, tent, tarp, poncho, etc.)

What are your 5 C’s?
Cola cola, caffeine and Sunlight! Wait did I do it wrong? 😂
Swiss Army knife, Sawyer mini, Bic lighter, casualty blanket, bankline are always in my pockets
Nailed it!!
In addition to the ones mentioned I'll go with: candy bar, cookies, cake for easy enjoyable Calories; Comms- Samsung Galaxy phone to call in the calvary; Condoms-- a baker's dozen for celebration after the rescue (or use for water collection); Compass to help in self rescue; Canon- scaled down to fit in the hand. A loaded Smith and Wesson Model 29 in 44 magnum will do just fine.
Cheese
carbs
chocolate
coffee
cinnamon rolls
I have a stainless steel single wall bottle for water. Then I have a small pouch with a small esbit stove, fire kit, emergency sos shelter, knife, flashlight, and cordage, among other things, including a rope chainsaw (Not the wire ones, but an actual chainsaw blade with rope handles; cuts better). I can fit that pouch in a canteen, and it sits like that in my glovebox. I also keep a military poncho and hoodie under the seat.
I'm a 65 yr old woman with a bad back.. I carry a side satchel purse. I've got that same Stanley 2 cup pot, and most of my EDC fits in it. My lighter, full tang knife and fire steel, a couple of better quality mylar emergency blankets, 2 contractor bags, a life straw, and a bivy. I've sewn into my purse a holster for my small 9, and 3 mags. I do have a car bag, and of course bug out bag, but at THIS point, they're just for show! I'm NOT carrying all that...
Dragonslayer...lol...I could have written that same reply to this video, except for the sewing part! I would just add that I keep a fold up mini two-wheeler with my bag because there's no way I could carry my BOB with this old back.
I'm a 70-year old woman with a bad back, and my car is my bugout bag. And unless I had to leave my car for a really really really good reason, I would always stay with my vehicle , and this is assuming that help is going to arrive workout I can wait out a situation. I have a small Camelback in case I do have to leave the shelter and security of my vehicle, but unless it's imperative that I leave and start walking, my car has everything in it to survive for two weeks. It would have to be an overwhelming necessity for me to leave that security and start walking.
What I carry gets used on every hike, handles food, water, shelter, warmth. Poncho & Jacket are for warmth & shelter, can sleep sitting with my back against a tree wearing both. Food: no cook food like Walnuts, Peanut Butter, Carb/Protein bars + paper towels (wet them for TP substitute). Water: 28oz Gatorade bottle, sawyer filter, 30ml dropper bottle Clorox (2 drops/qt - 30 minutes). Always have a pocket knife, AAA flashlight, Lighter, Cash in my pockets.
I carry a simple old Buck 110. As for cordage I have gone to 72" boot laces. I have a plain old mess kit. My one go to and I will fight to the death to keep it. It is my Coffee percolator. It still has the glass knob. It is a 20 cup life maintainer. As for fire starter in a pinch, them little fire starter logs. They make on about the size of a cube of butter. Me most likely in a different climate than you folks. It can snow virtually any time of the year. And it be drier than furnace creek in death valley.
Ok, Snyde remark, I can't decide which of you is going to look over and say "Right turn Clyde!" Serious remark, good to see yall team up for a collaboration!
You guys are hilarious. Yes, I noticed the intentional misspelling of words to see if we’re paying attention. Jason I’ve been following you for a while. I know how intelligent you are. You’re not going to misspell cutting 😂
Best 5’c video I’ve seen, my 5’c are very much what yaw have shown here, for my cutting tools, my bushcraft belt knife, 4-5” blade, a light weight backup knife that I like to use for food prep, my SAN with a saw, a pocket boy saw”optional” I’m big on having a machete so I carry a short one for brush clearing. I have just recently discovered the Old Hickory 12” butcher knife by OKC makes a excellent machete! GI canteen and cup or just a camp cup, GI poncho,Ranger lighter, ferro rod, matches, vasoline/cotton balls and jute twine and some times some fat wood, bank line, para cord, lots of these items are carried in my cargo pockets, I like to use my small rucksack and also carry a small haversack, those GI claymore bags make excellent mini haversack , I always have a banana, usually around my neck
I gotta agree with you guys. Im 72 years old. While i can live in the bush with very little i carry with me the things I really need instead of using valuable hours of daylight cobbling together sub par items when its so simple to just take with you. Spend your time working on shelter and securing water and fuel.
Celluloid originally was referred to as nitro cellulose which is the basis for smokeless gun powder. So yes it is very combustible.
Great timing for this video because I'm currently building a dry pack based survival kit for water adventures
Love seeing the Opinels, especially the saw. They're great tools that often get overlooked because they aren't tacticool enough.
water filter, wide-mouthed single wall steel flask, sturdy knife, ferrocerium rod, piece of thick polyethylene sheeting
It’s learning to make stuff from your surroundings when you have the time, having the proper gear is basically life saving essentials . Once you have your bases covered, then you can play.
Even in my day to day as a city boy my childhood lessons as a scout stuck with me. I always have a cutting implement (if its legal), a means to create flame, some sort of cordage, and (living in Florida) some sort of cover in the form of rain gear. I work for a Grocery chain so water and food aren't really a priority as its readily available in my day to day. (I do own titanium or steel bottles and camping gear but that generally stays in my vehicle or at home.
I'm a big knife nerd with a large collection and usually have several cutting implements on my person at any given time. I do use them for work so I at least have that "excuse". But I always have at least a Victorinox Multitool and one larger folder.
I'm with ya on having a Bic... got mine in a Exotac Firesleeve on my keychain to give a little moisture and damage resistance. I also have a few tinderquik tabs (in a small pillbag) and a spark wheel in a cache cap. I do have a small ferro rod toggle on the small sharpening stone I wear as a necklace I use to touch up the edge of my work knives.
I keep a few "essentials" in my cache belt that include things like a small "boo-boo" kit, individual doses of meds, a small titanium whistle, and a folded up face mask... but I do keep a needle and some 50lb. test kevlar thread as well. (Cordage can occasionally be useful to keep my pants together at the seams. 😅) Honestly though... Kevlar thread is incredibly compact and lightweight, is heat and abrasion resistant, and aside from its usefulness to stitch one thing to another...can actually be used as a friction saw to cut softer material. I only carry the lightest 50lb breaking strength but they make stonger braided cords from something like 100lb -1000lb test depending on how many strands are braided together. Useful stuff in a pinch.
A waterproof windbreaker, a poncho, or even just a umbrella are all every day things for a Floridian... so cover is generally available.
I really enjoyed this video. The five C's of Survivability have been around for a while now (David Canterbury made his 5 C's video 12 years ago), but you two (Big Wood and the Cock Whisperer) made the topic fun. I had a few good laughs.
"Big wood" 😅 great tips. Thank you.
Whenever an industry is talking about "The cutting edge" as a reference to a new invention, or innovation, many people don't know the source of that saying. The cutting edge is referred to that way because the literal cutting edge was the first man made invention.
That expression has only been around a 100 years or so. My guess the first man made tool would have been a club but I wasn’t there to see it
Not the pointed stick?
That's where the expression " The pointy end" comes from, the very first invention.
@@franckorphanos2998 the pointed stick was the first toilet paper.
@@franckorphanos2998 lol
It was a great show ! Here's a snide remark. TAKE CARE..
I carry the torch with me instead of the bic. But still have a few bic type lighters in my bag sealed up.I also like the paracord. You can split it apart if needed for fires or make fishing lines with the different strands they are so strong.Good show guys.
Between Big wood and Jason’s lights that were on in his hat it was still an effective video lol
Carry a SAK , folder and a fixed blade 90% of the time. Also have a bug out bag in the vehicle or survival kit on me or close by. Might be good to have some first aid stuff too.
Hi all. I have a small buck folder and a swiss knife. They have been with me for decades. Never went anywhere without them.
My favourite cordage however is a length of braided fishing line.
👍👍👍
Nothing new to watch here.
That said .. ALWAYS worth watching. Repeat / Remind (RR). 'RR, RR, RR' .. and when one has RR'd enough, then RR some more.
Good to see the humble Opinel getting some airtime. A extremely underrated lightweight, effective blade. An Opinel is for me, a daily carry. During a recent visit to 'Nanny-Minder-Land' aka the UK, I substituted my standard carry Opinel with the round point 'kiddie' version. No sharp point to horrify the local Indigini / authorities, but still with a decently sharp blade.
Excellent advice .. thanks for sharing. Take care ..
As fun as debris shelters are to build.... for me.... I'm looking to save time calories and energy when setting up camp!!!!! Its just logical!!!!makes sense!!!! Why do something you don't need to.. great stuff guys!!! I'm a tarp guy!!!
I like the tray shaped thingy, it would come in handy in the case of say, floating a baby down a creek or something. 😅
Enjoyed your presentation and explanation of the 5Cs. Better than most and I’ve watch them all.
J3 & JJ 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Really appreciate the recent vids. Thanks y’all, but please also keep going with the videos featuring the group. Appreciate what y’all do. Thank you
Yeah, you can over think shelters, I've just tied a poncho into the lower branches of some bushes and rolled up in a cheap tarp, it'll keep you dry and warmer till daylight. One top tip, you might be tempted to use a picnic table on the side of a road or by a park, don't. Lots of 4 legged critters go there and 2 legged ones after dark and even if they don't mean you harm there's some things you just can't unsee!!!
The 5 essentials are great! People really should become comfortable using them. They could become your best friends! Thanks guys for the video, stay safe!
Jason and JJ, thank you. My 5: firearm, 3 inch fixed blade knife, phone, sunhat.
Jason is really bright, with his cap lights on while recording.;)
I chuckle at the people that say they will not need a knife, they can knapp a blade from stone they find. [Really, how many hours, days, or years of constant experience do you have doing that so you can do that spur of the moment? Watching a couple YT videos really does not count.]
JJ your Beard has to be fake. The dang thing is just to prefect 😂. On a real note I'm glad to see you guys doing something together. Would love to see you guys do a scenario together. Keep up the awesome work both of you.
Haha.. It’s the real deal-Thanks! Jason and I love filming together.. We got something REAL special coming soon 😂
@@FueltheFires can't wait brother 👍
🤣🤣🤣
@@madbombermike he buys them from the party store🤣
@@madbombermike I'm just jealous lol I just shaved mine and it will take me another year or so to be as perfect as sir JJ's 🤣. I gave Jason a hard time when he had his mustash I think he was trying to Look like Bert Reynolds my phone keeps wanting to spell everything but want I want to say. Gotta love technology.
My top two things that are leaps and bounds (force multipliers) over not having them is 1. An edged steel cutting tool and 2. The ability to make fire.
Force-MULTIPLIERS are KEY 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Something to boil water in and something to shed the rain are also tough to replicate in the wild.
I guess you can heat up rocks and drop them into a rock hollow that you fill with water to boil water in
@@fustercluck2460 I agree those are high on the list as well. Not saying I wouldn’t carry them. ✌🏻
I just started watching you guys a few days ago and I appreciate that you give really good information with humor! I think that goes a long way when teaching people and (hopefully!)getting them to retain the information you’re presenting. Great video and keep the knowledge coming because the way things are going we may need to use these lessons!
Agreed. But you should get out and do the things anyway. It's fun, useful and good practice. Take care.👍🏻
Convenience is great. However, have the knowledge and skills to be able create the necessities is of great importance. Time. In many instances, Time is what you have. Make the most of it. Create what you need.
Practice all the hard ways. And you will appreciate the easy ways. Bic lighter and duct tape is always a good idea in your pocket.
You guys doing this video together was entertaining and informative. Thank you both for your time and please do more.
More to come!
Up in northern ontario, we do quinzee in the winter. The indigenous people did it n it works
Yes, Ponchos are so stylish, I can see why you wear one everywhere.
Exactly!
Road flair!
At least one.
Burns for 10 minutes.
Super easy to light.
Even if you're hands are numb/cold and will warm your hands while it lights your fire.
Burns in heavy rain.
The C's of Survival can actually be a fun survival challenge game. You can simply get 5 items, number them 1-5, and ask a friend to randomly pull 3 and then 2 numbers from a hat, have them hold these two clusters behind their back. You choose a hand, and out comes you luck, what 2 or 3 items of the 5 do you get to use, what does that leave your friend, and then Challenge On. Another challenge game would be to make 5 columns of items, one per C. And use a random number generator to choose which item in each of the columns get to be the ones you use. Both these take away your "choice" in the C you get, because you can SO easily get GOD TIER ITEMS that there really is no challenge :)
Greetings Jason, It's true Martian are real. Your antenna was on all during this video, just like my favorite Martian 😂😂😂
Ha! You win! First one to notice!!
My Eye Specialist told me to wear a baseball style Cap to help keep the Sun out of my eyes. Be safe my friends.
Great video guys! Hey Jason, that lighting system under your hat brim is intriguing. Illumination to me, is right up there with the 5 C's.
But why is it turned on in broad daylight?
@@josephellis4644 Pretty sure that's just the reflection of the LED's and the lense.
Hey guys, what a great video! You always inspire me to go out and try "new" things. Your gear tips are awesome and sometimes they are real eye openers. I think one of the most important skills is not only to posess outdoor gear but how to use it the right way. Thank you so much 🙏and as always all the best from Austria 🇦🇹🤠👍🏕🔥
Awesome! Thank you!
Mine are the same as yours on the 5C's. Many decades ago I went hunting and camping with a shelter half and would build some shelters , only once did I find that perfect rock cave.
Great coverage on the 5 "C's", take care.
Great to see both together guys that make my day highly appreciate what you do all the tips are real thank you very much and stay safe out there God bless you always
Our pleasure!
Great stuff guys, love the old way of fire makings but Bic is my go to along with cotton balls and Vaseline
Good stuff!
Knowledgeable men. Best wishes from the UK.
Cheers - Rob
I'm curious.
(No offense intended here.)
How carful do you have to be when you need to carry a knife nowadays in the UK?
Say for camping or work?
The chapter speeeelling has me pee'ing myself 🤣🤣🤣
That wazoo card is pretty awesome 😮👍🇺🇸
I think some folks have been enamored with the movie The Hunted with Tommy Lee Jones and Benecio Del Toro. The scene where they’re both in the woods hunting each other, one is knapping a knife from his surroundings and one is forging a modern knife with found materials. The sheer amount of time it takes for both of those projects to be completed, coupled with the fact that it’s a hunted vs hunted scenario, not a good plan.
My Number One is Mosquito Repellent!
Snide remark....🤔 everytime i come to this channel, i end up somewhere between "thats cool" and "who are these ding-dongs"😂😂.
Welp. I'm wrong. Great video. Thank you.
Cutting: Ontario Jungalas, rat 1, gomboy (im in the desert)
Cover: snugpak jungle blanket, packable rain jacket
Cordage: paracord, bankline
Combustion: bic, storm matches, ferro rod
Cup: steel nalgene, titanium cup
All I need is my Cold Steel SF shovel🥰
Snyde remark
Resources & Experiences - Key to the 5 Cs. By the way guys, there's a couple of spelling mistakes on the captions. Our 5Cs is no different from anyone else when bushcrafting & survival except that our tools & equipment are modded to our specification. We also survey & observed the land we live on including the National Parks & Reserves, what is edible or not, the wildlife & their water resources & location. We do have one extra way of making fire, that's Mum's "i don't like it" stare.!! Thanks for the updates JJ & JS. Cheers from Australia whom awaits your BOB challenge. Stay Prepared - Rylie, Nikkei & Nellei.
Ha! There are exactly 5 spelling “mistakes”.
@@SurvivalDispatch Correction : 6 actually
I prefer a heavy mil contractor trash bag over a thin space blanket.
Me too. But they much less convenient to carry.
Nitrocellulose, very close to gun cotton. Lacquer is made with it also. At work I found about 7 pounds that had dried out. I was very uncomfortable taking it to someone to put it in a batch of lacquer.
They were making a batch and it had dried out and the guy came into a meeting, very calm voice and said " we used two fire extinguisher and it is still burning.
It was only about 30 gallons.
Safety 5th there.
I’m Honey Smack Diggin’ 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Double deckin honey smackn diggin it!
great video. i got a laugh outta the misspleded words lol. my 5 c's are....cuting- kephart, sak, folding saw, small ax. cumbustunn- couple bics, ferro rod, uco matches, fresnel lens. cuver - pathfinder tarp, poncho with liner, hd trash bags. kun tainer- grayl, ss water bottle, ss cups. cordege- paracord, bank line. and the rest of the 10c's comes along. thanks for the info and the laff!
Lol. Love it. Thanks!
I concur and 2nd and 3rd your content
Good info
🇦🇺😎👍Interesting content
Thanks 👍
Im a crocheter and i can make a whole lot of things with a hook and cordage.
Solid skill to have for sure!
Gotta love a good ole Lighter Nott
Cuver definitely is needed😂
The 2nd instance....
The .... whisperer, what am I watching? Haha!
JS.. Bro.. as always.. I love U brother ! Enjoy the light / humor side of your vids !
Speaking of "light".. what was up w LED ball cap lights being ON for whole video ? Testing battery life / duration..?
I’m afraid of the dark.
Great video guys, I really took a lot from it, hey JJ, what is in the pouch on your knife sheath 🤔
It’s an ESEE product that I added to my SURVIVE! GSO-5.1.. It’s designed to fit the ESEE survival tin 👍🏻
Cordage or cordedge? Great video overview.
If you were to find that "hollowed out log" you'd be likely to find a black widow inside.
True dat!
09:44 Meters! That's a measurement I understand! Greetings from the EU! 😂
Perhaps the new guy could help you with your Bush crafting beard growing skill. Can't help but notice you've had a little problem with that.
That’s it!! The stache is gonna make a comeback!
Snide remarks.. spelling #2 "kombustion" I suppose is better than spelling it "cumbusti..nevermind. probably not an appropriate wood comment! I apologize but I couldn't resist.
0:27 Belt knife - Wow! that right there is actually the subject for a whole video all on its own. Firstly, I don't believe on only one knife. You really need different knives for different tasks, so let's leave it there!
3:56 Cotton wool balls - nah, there's a better way. Cotton make-up remover pads. They are flat, pack easily, and if your pack say 10 in a Zip-loc bag, they will stay dry no matter what. They come in 100 in a pack so that's enough for 10 bags, and 100 fires if you're careful. Also, hand sanitiser gel is probably better than the Vaseline.
But it’s Baby Love Vaseline! It has to be the best!
@@SurvivalDispatch 🤣😂
I like the cotton pads too & I have used both hand sanitizer & petroleum jelly with cotton balls and pads.
Petroleum jelly burns longer then alcohol in hand sanitiser and doesn't dry out/evaporate. It's also waterproof.
I prefer waxed cotton pads though, because they burn even better, longer, don't dry out, & are mostly waterproof.
Dip 3/4 of the pad in melted wax, let harden and store.
Pull the unwaxed 1/4 open to expose the fluff and light however you like. (Spark, flame heat vision)
My ABSOLUTE favorite is using a road flair.💥
🗽
@@laremyzaring8568 Thanks for the reply, and I see I caused a misunderstanding! I was thinking mainly of a fire starter, whereas you are describing a starter/extender combo, and it is a very valid comment. In that role yours are a great idea. I was thinking more of a pad/candle combo for getting a fire going. Therefore I feel both approaches have merit. Thanks again.
👍
Big Wood!!!! HUHUHUHU.. We're children..
My 5 - C's doesn't exist ---- in my mind there are at least 7 --- I won't go without a "good" mini flashlight and a "good" compass. I have a titanium canteen and cup set instead of the "Stanley" you have there -- however I do have a Stanley like that and a Stanley S.S. canteen also. I always have a Spyderco Paramilitary 2 in my pocket - even if I have a fixed blade on my belt. And 1 extra BIC thats been sealed in a foodsaver bag so I'll always have a dry lighter. I choose the Silky BigBoy also but my knife is the Cabelas Alaskan Guide "Vanguard but mine has the rubber handle instead of rosewood - I believe Buck's BOS heat treatment of S30V is the best in the business.
😀👍
I thought you were going to say “If you don’t carry these things… you will DIE!!!” 🤭
Big wood 🪵😂
big wood
Have ever lit a ping pong ball?
Cover not cuver the latter is what you do after drinking or is it the 6 c’s
What is the pocket blanket brand?
And redundancy, I have several of my items
Make a video on STANLEY FMHT16693-0 FATMAX Utility Wrecking Chisel knife
What about the 6s C for contractor bag watched a homeless man crawl into one pouring down rain and sleet and I guess survived the night.
Or you could chase down a bull, wrestle him to the ground, cut off his horn with your little survival cable saw and then make a container out of it. LMAO. nice video.guys.
I realize I don't have any bankline - any recommendations? Braided, twisted; any brands you recommend? #36 seems to be popular?
Lots of different brands out there. Most any kind of tarred mariners line somewhere around 150 pound test seems to get the job done.
Snideeeeeee. SNIDEEEEEEEE😊😊😊😊
I'm looking at the wall with a circular saw blade rigged to a handle. A cutting tool used as a weapon, yes? Has a gladiator look to it.
Probably from a zombie movie or game.
Sweet though!
Indeed.@@laremyzaring8568
So what is the brand of the machete in the video.
It’s an Ontario 👍🏻
