    The leaves are delicious and absolutely packed with nutrition! Use them like any other greens; when you cook them the sting goes away. I grow them on my deck in a pot, and try to eat them daily.

    This is so cool! I don’t have a nettles supply where I live but I’m trying to figure out how to do this with fig tree bark

      Soak the bark in water and try every day to pull of strips from the bark, probably on the inside. Primitive Technology has a video where he makes rope from bark fibers.

    Information like this is going to be worth more than gold soon. Study survival stuff online folks make use of the web while it's still around.

    The variety you show in the very beginning of the video has very broad leaves for what I know as stinging nettle, is it also edible because I love stinging nettle greens

    You totally just wasted a very good source of nutrition. Stinging Nettles is one of the most nutritious plants there is and also one of the better tasting wild herbs. Makes a nice tea also.
    Also if your truly desperate for cordage you can quickly and easily use strips of your clothing or even hair to make.
    Remember turn those nettle leaves into soup or tea.

      😂😂😂 You do realize that stinging nettles grow in patches, right ? If you find a stinging nettle, you will find thousands more in the surrounding area.
      You can't be serious with your recommendation to use clothes (much more valuable than stinging nettles because you can always find more nettles, but you won't find new clothes in the wilderness that easily) or hair (in survival situations you cut your hair short, to prevent pests like lice and to reduce the amount of water needed to wash yourself).
