Surviving in the Australian Bush with No Food, Water or Shelter
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 січ 2023
- I head into the Australian bush for a solo bushcraft/ survival challenge. I have no food, no water and no shelter, so I have to eat what bush tucker (wild edible plants) I can find as well as build a shelter using natural materials. This was a super fun challenge. Hope you enjoy it.
Note: This was filmed in a state forest, not a national park.

Hi Scotty. Great content. Just one thing regarding your hips on the ground. I was in the Australian Army(grunt) and we used to dig a "Hip Hole". Its just a shallow oval shaped hole for your hip to fit in when sleeping. Made all the difference.
Haha I was thinking the same thing when he woke up 😂 The glory days. Great tip.
Yep, what Brad said. Hip and shoulder holes make a huge difference for side sleepers. Nice vid too.
Yep. Ex 8/9 RAR Recon.
Quote from a Seco: " any idiot can be uncomfortable in the bush "
Omg that makes so much sense lol
Great Tip, its so much easier in the Sand too! You can Bring Large B Baloons for Pillow, doesn't weigh much to pack/ easy/adjustable w/air! 😉👍. You must know the Dig-in method/w/straw/sideways/breathing! Cool video for him I'd say! NZ, ✌👍😮
Termite mounds are also used by female lace monitors to lay their eggs and incubate them for 9 months.
Crushed up and mixed with water then laid as a slab it turns into a natural concrete. Handy stuff
@@nunya9034i see alot of primitive videos (that are mostly faked other than the ogs) do that idk if it actually works as natural concrete
edit: just searched it up, seems its mostly true
I love it when you go back to the raw basics. It shows just how tough it is with no food, water and putting up with all the snakes and other wild life. It makes you appreciate life. Thank you Scotty for sharing your adventures, keep ‘em’ coming. Take care, be safe. ❤ Dorset, UK
No food but plenty of snakes ?.
The snakes are food here.lol
Watching that fire turn from a contraption of sticks, to a smolder, to a flame was just magic
It's lovely to hear you espousing good forest management including regular burn offs. Love the channel - keep up the amazing content!
I really enjoyed watching this episode. I haven't watched you before and don't know how I found you, but well done on a great video Scott
Do yourself a favour and go back and enjoy all of Scotty’s adventures
I have learnt so much from his videos
I love going out and doing a “rough it” love the miserable feeling you get
Outstanding piece of cinematography my friend. All shots here are brilliantly composed and executed! Masterful production!
A rough nite for sure Scotty but this episode made for compelling viewing mate. First class firestarting .. one for the memory bank. Thanks for your efforts to entertain and brighten up our lives. Bushyboy Oz
Loved this, very educational for someone like me that loves the bush and doesn't know much about it. Absolute bangerrrrr :)
Never fail to make my day. Cheers bud
Thank u Scotty for another epic video. You keep it real and in the process teach ppl to respect our bushland. Loved it as usual.
Legend mate, love your respect for the bush
Thoroughly enjoyed this one, mate. The Red Belly’s really brought it home for me though 😂 Great job. Lovely shelter. Nice bushtucker 🙌
Best Aussie survival video ever! Nice job mate!
So interesting, love to learn about Bush tucker in Australia, even if it isn't relatvent to the Bush tucker in the Sierra's in California 😁
Spot on about the fires ans fuel load
That “emu” was definitely a yowie
Great video Scotty, very informative, loved it 👍🏿, I need my sleep so I'd b grumpy as, cool shelter
these survival challenge vids are the best mate, keep them coming. love learning about bush tucker.
subscribed.
Fantastic video mate! Looks like so much fun. I'm really impressed by the way that you care for the bush, and try and minimize your impact while also enjoying the bush to the full. It's a tricky balance, but you nailed it. Keep it up!
Top stuff as always Scotty!! Appreciate the knowledge, tips and content you create for all. Keep smashing it up mate 🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿
Really enjoyed this video Scotty. Love how you pass on your knowledge of the bush tucker. Thanks and cheers Shaun
This is gonna be a good one! Love your work scotty
Really like this video format! Learning survival, indigenous terms, bushtucker, etc, super entertaining
Interesting comments around minute 745. I agree. The burning of ground litter is important to the safety of our natural environment as it has evolved over tens of thousands of years.
Epic accomplishment mate. Looking forward to the next one 🤙🏾
Love how you dissembled the tent and returned the site as good as where you found it.
Yes your right, fire and Australia=green and wet !!!
Mate, you are our modern day Bush Tucker Man! I cant get enough of your films, keep up the good work!
Awesome Scott, it was great to see you mix it up with an interesting new format!
Absolutely brilliant Scotty, love these type of videos you do. It’s interesting to see how different your environment is to here in the UK, different species & wildlife. The great thing is, despite the differences the core bushcraft, survival skills are still the same principles, water, shelter, food & if you can fire 🔥, difficulty in fire here as it’s very wet & damp. Enjoy the summertime mate. 🙌 Andy 🙌
If your a side sleeper, its good to scoop out a bit of a hole for your hip. Helps a little. I've got the same saw and also snapped it. Very brittle.
So good Legend, introduced another mate to your videos when we caught up this evening. He’ll love this stuff 🙌🏼
Mate it's a pleasure watching as your skills have evolved 🤙🤙love ya work brother 👍
Dude, your videos are getting better and better! I love the bush takker information. Keep it up
Thanks mate
Always look forward to your videos brother, keep up the great work mate 👍
Great video Scott
Love you channel man, just found it! Such useful information! I moved here from england a few months ago and ive spent so much time out in the bush already its getting to the point im almost needing to overnight! This has been such a valuable insight, ill be brushing up on alot of your videos and maybe try practise some day foraging first. All the best bro 🤘
Props to you for sleeping there man, tough night! So good, keep the vids coming . 28:57
Should invest in a night trail video camera, then you can see what wildlife comes near you :D
Loved this one mate, keep it up! great info with bush tucker and enjoying the bushcraft
Quite a challenge there. Your knowledge of the safe plants to eat is definitely helpful. The creepy crawlers and wildlife at night would totally freak me out. Have you ever tried survival camping for longer periods of time? Say like a week or so? The hamburger and chips would taste bloody good after that! Enjoyed the video. HooRoo from Wisconsin, USA!
Thanks Judy. I'd like to try and do longer periods of time, but I still work full time so it's hard for me to get anymore that 3 days off. Maybe one day.
these survival challenges are your best vids. so good
Thanks heaps mate
Finally an Australian one of these videos! Hi from Perth
Great video mate love your work 👍 looking forward to the next one
Hey mate
First video I have watched on your channel but that was amazing
It was entertaining, informative and even inspirational (especially at the part where you were speacking about the bush fires)
Thats one more sub well earned 🎉❤
Love this video hope to see more like it this year !! 👌🏾
more of these bud!
Nice one Scotty. You’re a master fire master! I wish I could remember bush food like you do. Thanks again 😊
Inspirational stuff.
I'm thinking, yeah I can have a go at that.
BTW "Stoked to get a fire..." - love your work.
Yes!!!!! Favorite UA-camr is on!!!!
Outstanding!
Nice one Scotty.Full of inspiration. You are a wise one..A nod also to your comments on the recent bushfires and forest management. or lack of. I live in Conjola. Well done.
Gday scotty happy new year mate lovely to hear from you again hope all has been well for you and your family take care of yourself
Great work with the fire Scotty! 🔥🔥 Awesome vid as always!
That was awesome.
loved this content just booked in for bush craft course at BSA appreciate the content and tips the smile on ur face when u got the fire going said it all
awesome, again, Scotty! Love your videos! plus, cant wait to see your new canoe in a video! OMG, soooo beautiful!
Great video, Scott. I used to go overnight camping like that near our farm in WA when I was a teenager, though I did take water and food. I remember falling asleep at school class the next day a few times.
Love these kinds of videos dude I'm from Australia also and honestly glad I found the channel
Awesome experience filmed well , felt like i was there , so relaxing . Nice bush tucker finds , i better get a bush tucker book !
Outstanding stuff. Wonderfull, genuine presentation......I learnt so much. Look forward to the next adventure. You got a new subscriber!!
I am so happy for the bush tucker content please dont stop! You can be bigger than bush tucker man!
great stuff thanks. happy new year
Great video Scotty! Great fire-making skills 👌
Perfect mild weather.
Congratulations on the fire ! Have tried that with very little luck. Beautiful .Happy New Year. Thank you.
Impressive bow drill work! I don’t think I would have slept at all with all the critters nosing around. I would have just sat up all night imagining all the predators-
Oh mate great job getting the fire started. Good on you digger
So perfect thanks for sharing 💖
I’d hate to know how close you got to the red bellies that you didn’t see! Camp came up quite nice too, apart from the creepy crawly intruders
Thank you for mentioning forest management, we need to regularly burn off bush and scrub in Oz.
Love this video mate 😊
Great video, inspired me to think about getting out there again
Excellent video!
Wow....I've never seen a video like this before....how original....lol.....
good video bro enjoyed it
Awesome challenge!! Happy new year. 👍😎🇨🇦📷🌱
Making fire from scratch like that is very hard even if you have a shoe lace, well done!!
Great stuff mate. Looked like a real rough night tho. Gee I was so happy when you got that fire started, no stress for you. Great vid
Well done
Awesome mate👌
This was a great watch! Love the content. Looking to do this myself out in the bush here on Yuin Country ♡ gorgeous spots
Your so lovely Scotty.,keep up the good work
I knew you would get the fire going . Really liked this one.
Outstanding
Great job
Hectic vid man. 👍🏻
Seriously, this is luxury!
killer episode!! More like this in Aussie country
Well done Scotty. I've been keen to try out a coastal survival trip .. but going more inland feels a bit intimidating .. just feels like food takes a bit more work away from the coast and you certainly need to know your bush tucker knowledge. So I'm really impressed with what you have achieved here.
Thanks heaps mate. Yeah getting protein on the coast is fairly easy, it definitely become trickier the further inland you go. If I had more time, I would have looked for wood boring grubs. They can be pretty tasty cooked out hot coals. And if there's a creek near by, you can pretty much always count on eels. Keen to see a vid of you having a go at it.
Sorry wasn’t meant to reply here.
@Craig Chris Bamman I think his name is in Australia is a Legend too, he does that sort of thing mostly water/sea related but would love to see a collab with all these dudes.
Great video, cheers. Much love, best wishes. Holmen.
great video,
have a great day
Onya Scotty! I really ave to work out how I can make the time to do what you're doing. Great work.
amazing work, video, outlook, skills, all of it.
see you on alone australia season 2 then?
There are native plants that only thrive with many years without fire. So it isn't a clean cut thing in terms of conserving vegetation when it comes to fire. I really appreciate the info on the plants. It's the highlight for me.
Mint vid. Love the bare bones approach.
Snapped the saw tip again eh mate? Unlucky. Loved the idea, sick challenge for yourself. Another wicked video. Yewww
Cool video. I am a long time follower! Adding the branches to the roof I d suggest putting them always “inside out” so the single leaves will work as a gutter or channel for the raindrops. 👍
