The Survival Russia Channel is about "The Reality Of Survival". I live on a Homestead in far away Russian wild nature. Here is no room for "TV" Survival.
Only Reality counts here. Survival Russia promotes the philosophy of always carrying equipment and never to be parted from equipment which will affect chances of Survival.
So did the old timers and pioneers of both the East and the West.

Real skills taught by a person who really survives in Siberia. Priceless skills, free of charge.
I am resting from being at the edge of my woods cutting down bittersweet vines today. I was very happy to clean an area and set free some small birches. Inside my little house, I lay down to rest with some home made goat milk curd, and now I have to watch your video again, because I fell asleep and missed it..That was great. I want to make this fire in my woods in New Hampshire this winter..
Glad to see you've told us how long your Siberian log fires last. 13 hrs.. Nice and efficient Lars...love it
14 :) at least. Thank you very much.
+Survival Russia You just saved someone from freezing to death in the tundra. You're my hero!
Awesome thank you I'm going to go out and train and practice this fire!!!
the only improvement i'd make is to have 2-3 Siberian Huskies watching you make the fire and drag some lumber!
That's what I wanted to learn great thanks lars take care brother
.... awesome . I made one and had to sit about 5 meters away lol
i am not trying to be nosy, but what do you do for work in a low populated area? also, how many acres of land do you own?
I'm an electrician.
That is how a vid is done.
No nonsense, informative.
Awesome.
I feel that people feel they can compete, out do, or even match what animals do.
When you camp overnight, it takes a lot of time to prep.
The dog lays in some leaves..all night.
You lay in a tent.
The dog wags its tail in the morning, you feel like shit.
You have made me a believer in the value of a saw.
I absolutely love the Siberian log fire setup. What a difference in the amount of work required and you can actually get some sleep at night instead of constantly getting up and feeding the fire. :-)
I've watched 100s of videos, spent most of my life in the 🇨🇦 bush, and hands down most real channel.out there. Cheers Lars
I keep thinking that someday, somewhere, someone is going to run into Trouble and need a Fire to Survive. I hope that they have seen this Video or get Taught it and build it and make it home Alive. And if that ever happens, I hope you find out about it. Thanks Lars for making a POSITIVE contribution to the Human Race. Take Care, my Friend.
Hey Lars, thanks for giving credit where credit is due: Evenki. You provided a huge amount of info in this video.Thanks for the thorough instruction. I can attest to the efficacy/utility of this fire...A1/Primo! I used it last Winter on a solo trip. Sat for hours one night watching a jet of gas emit from one log, ignite like a blowtorch, stop, and then repeat, over and over again. Тайга моя заветная....Эвенкийский костер для ночевки в Тайге, et al. Friður/Frid/Mир.
Circumpolar Bear Cult and if memory serves, there is a good hitch called "ivenki reindeer hitch". It's easier to tie with heavy gloves.
"minus 10C, which is of course not horribly cold" Said like a True Russian!

That's about 14 degrees in farenheit not too cold for northern countries

Heh heh one of my favourite UA-cam videos. Now, I am sure I have seen Lars making a Siberian fire with the burnable logs placed snugly side by side on the resting log. The rain was pouring down....snow or rain it doesn't matter, but the fire was sheltered by the 5/7 logs that formed the ceiling....the fire nestled underneath, and continued burning despite the terrible conditions. The point being, the logs that rest on top of the horizontal log will shelter the fire from the elements....this concept changed me forever. It is stunningly clever and formed I'm guessing from many generations of people trying to keep warm in rain and snow. Lars....thank you for sharing this skill....a skill developed by the people of the Siberian plateau.
Great! I've made this style fire before and it is truly AWESOME. I never knew it was of Siberian orgin though.....Happy new year!
1st vid of yours I've watched, happy days thanks a lot for taking the time to post it ....
Hello Lars I watch your winter camping/survival videos regarding the siberian firelay over and over again.You have demonstrated how it is done for real under,what I consider to be,the worst winter conditions. Whether you know it or not you have saved lives. Thanks for all you do.👍😉
Very good instructional video with plenty of detail and practical uses. I needed to see this to finalize my knowledge of this method. Now I need to find somewhere to do this this winter when the snow gets deep. Thank you Lars these last two videos. I enjoyed them very much.
I like a man who can just eat raw garlic
This actually makes a lot of sense, thanks!
If there is wind, in which direction we should place the logs?
And if we need to take off quickly, how to put out the fire properly, so we dont burn down the whole forest?
Thank you for this video, I've been looking forward to this for a long time. I've never seen anyone in the US make a fire like this. I think it has a lot of uses with minimal tending to the fire itself.
interesting fire lay,have to make it one day
so steve hey Steve
hey Tom good to hear from you buddy
Abraham Lincoln, a former American president, once said that "wood warms you twice. Once when you cut it, and again when you burn it".
The first time is from burning calories which might be scarce if you are having to build a fire to stay warm.
+tdrnkr Sorry, but wood warms you 4 times. Once when you cut it, once when you split it, once when you stack it & once when you burn it. Trust me me, I've been burning wood to heat my house for over 40 yrs.
Well, I guess Old Abe was wrong.
abe said 4 times
Oh. "Scuse me
Talk about irony I had to sit through a party political broadcast for the green party before watching this video
The three major advantages of this fire lay to me are that it combines somewhat of a wind screen, it is very weather resistant, and it is very efficient from an effort and wood usage standpoint like a Native American star fire.
the Silky Zubat is also a great fixed blade saw if you like belt carry
I expect that the Siberian log fire combined with the Mors KochanskI Super Shelter would keep you more than warm enough no matter how cold it gets with the radiant heat directed at the shelter
I have that saw too :)
I am not surprised-but have yet to see it in a video?
Im a 50 years old man from Sweden, since birth Iv been spending alot of my time in nature both summer and winter with minimal equipment... I got to say... you Inspire me and you show new things thats more easy than my way... Ty, and dont stop making vidios! Godt mod.
FANTASTIC video. Your information about the Siberian log fire is amongst the most informative I ever came across on UA-cam. Thank you very much, Lars!
Would be nice to get tips on this. Any differences when lighting in the rain or snow fall. Which way to place it with wind etc. I like your videos.
Love and respect to you my friend and all russians brothers from Greece. Great video
The good, working fire - itself tried. Heats perfectly!!! For a raising of boards thanks!
Не за что ))
Lars ,great to see you once again in your element " the forest " , I know you must have been missing it. Thanks for the new videos and excellence you put into them !
Hey Lars, habe diese Art der Feuer Konfiguration gestern Nacht / heute früh ausprobiert und ich bin sehr zufrieden damit! Gibt viel Strahlungswärme ab und ist leicht in Gang zu halten. Das entzünden ist allerdings etwas schwieriger ausschließlich mit Birkenrinde. Ich vermute da diese hier deutlich dünner ist...
Yea but why is it not good for koumbaya? Lol
I will give this fire lay a try and see how it works.
I am looking for a long burn fire to use with a super shelter this just may be what I am looking for...
A long log fire is to intense and ends up cooking me out of the shelter...
Thank you for the great videos on this particular fire.
Question: how close can or should I lay to this fire with an open shelter?
“..a fair amount of mosquitos...it’s not 100% awesome.” HAHAHA!! That made me LOL!
all time best camp fire I use it everytime I go bush work great very warm. for long time
Liking the extra content Lars.
much appreciate.
Absolutely love this fire lay. Never be able to thank you enough for this insight👍
👍🇺🇸🇨🇳🇺🇸🇨🇳🇺🇸🇨🇳🇺🇸🇨🇳🇺🇸🇨🇳🔥⛺🎯⛺🎯🔥👍 I always enjoy your videos great blog I like the idea with your fire really good idea Jim Lane Kansas City Missouri
Maybe it's just because I'm an old, "retired" boy scout, but it amazes me how clueless 98% of the population is on how to tie knots. It's not hard at all to know how to tie at least ten useful knots. I want to laugh any time I see some sort of line tightening device.....I think, "who cares, tie a taught-line hitch!" At least now my wife understands that she can ask me how to tie certain knots that accomplish certain needs! .........baby steps!
Mountaincoffee Outdoors truckers hitch and bowline are my favorite knots
Trying to figure out what tying a truckers hitch has to do with a Siberian log fire, so what’s your point?
Checking in from USA. It would be AWESOME to spend a week in the woods with you. Definitely going to try this method out and I just added nails to my camping/bug out/inch bag whatever u want to call it 😂. Big 👍 up homie continued success and thanks for the lessons you provide us
Excellent video Lars. Very informative and helpful. Thank You. Nazdorovie!!
Lars, have you checked out the UA-cam channel of Макс Кисляков (Max Keeslyakov) yet? He has some good videos about the LUAZ. Shows how tough the vehicle is off-road.
Strange enough that THIS specific firelay worked at all - there was NO BACON involved??? How could that ever happen? ;) ATB Lars, Gereon
At 8:20 you can see nice spaces between the 5 logs, now, suppose you have 4 more logs, just as fat as the 5, and suppose you place the 4 between the other 5, tipped up to touch together above the 5, NOW you have a "SURVIVAL" Siberian Log Fire, that is a taller fire radiating MORE heat in the forward direction, Yes burns a little faster, but it's more self feeding as the logs nestle into each other. A little more snow or dirt on the backside will slow it down some more, but maybe burn all night, or slide the 4 forward first , later followed by the 5.
Regardless, it's a taller fire projecting more heat from a greater surface, forward toward the user. Anyway I'm 70 years old, and I'll never get out there camping again, so maybe you'll give it a try and see if there are any benefits or drawbacks. Thanks anyway, Best Regards. ALWAYS enjoy your Vids. Ønsker jeg var camping med dig.(Google)
No Bacon? =( Sad times... hehe
I had bacon, black bread and garlic with me :)
yep, i can see that magestic white cube at top of your container when you are talking about eating garlic.
This is why this type of log fire should be banned. It leave too much time for eating bacon. ... Lol.
The "SURVIVAL" Siberian Log Fire, that Bruce Foote suggested sounds interesting, what do you think Lars?
I could just tell when I saw the video that there would be tonnes of mosquitos.. thats the best thing about Ireland. NO MOSQUITOS.. Unfortunately we do not have much natural wilderness to camp in like you have in Russia
Well done Lars with the Siberian fire. Hope one day I can come visit your wonderful country of Russia. Hope Putin will not mind having an American visiting the mother land. Peace V
I use this in a smaller version every outing now after seeing it in your old video. Even the small one was still slightly alight the morning after and didn't take much to get going for breakfast
Lars, how long will those logs last. Also how much time before you have to push the logs out so it will stay burning? Thanks I need to give that a try, winter is upon us, 10 degrees Fahrenheit which is probably t-shirt weather for you, lol
-10 is pretty cold. During winter i often work in -25. I keep moving though and only in daylight! Icicles on the eyelids are a bit annoying, yea?
Love this stuff ive watched this techique a few times great fire how about using 5-6 sewdish torch fires to start this big siberian long fire ......idea came from watchig your videos and tbinki g tbinking thinking how can i make it better .....lol could you try my added idea to your method combined .....cheers
Hello Fred! .. Truly, Hello!
... Roger- from the enjoyable banter (along with the kind man from Winnipeg) under the Lovely 'Heading' of: The Aviation sons .. of John & Shawn @ their: Gulf Stream 65 .... Good hearing of you again; truly!
I must remember of: Arturo fuenta, and have one one day.
Do take care,
Roger
The Siberian log fire has to be one of my favourite camp fires and one day I'm going to build one, also remembering not to keep on chopping logs into small and smaller pieces. A complete waste of energy. Thanks for reminding us how they're built for the best effect, Lars. Take care..
Knowing very little about survival, a thought came to mind about this fire. I was wondering this might be pretty good for using in front of a super shelter? Thanks
Huge fan from a Dude in America. May our countries stay peaceful with each other and destroy big media. 🤣🤙🏻
Thank you for this video. I have never found a better fire for prolonged heat under extremely severe conditions.
... Fuente! Arturo Fuente.
I’m going to have to try this next trip. You are lucky to have so many birch and pine trees to burn! We have mostly oak which burns long but can be a pain to light. If I ever get some rural land I am going to plant birch trees.
Have you lost weight during summer? Or maybe it was just the clothes that you were wearing...
Not so much weight, but I lost some fat for sure. Funnily I weigh almost the same as usual :)
Survival Russia Body composition, that is called. You can weigh the same, but look VERY different....
muscle ways more than fat, I think .
That homestead life got brother Lars looking fit and trim!
Putin is offering homesteads, how tempted I am when I see country like this. Nice stand brother,
oh that's nice and' all but my Most Efficient Camp And Survival Fire is in my log cabin in front of my pot belly stove .with a hot pot of coffee brewing
Also good for those lost in the woods naked survival people. You theoreticaly wouldn't have to cut any wood for this fire you could just find a few fallen trees or push over a dead standing or two and you have a fire. Assuming your handrill calluses are up to date. If you have to start new handrill calluses its gonna be a cold night
"Minus 10C which is not horribly cold..." Yeh, right... LOL
Should loop the cord once around the railing while hoisting the seat. Then it's easy to hold with one hand between pulls. Love your videos, Lars.
Your English is very good. Really enjoying many of your UA-cam content
Any experience with this fire using hardwoods?
Not personally, but friends abroad says it works fine.
Hi Lars. Super video. Jet vil I al fremtid hvis det er muligt lave den slags bål. Glæder mig til at prøve. Bor i gentofte ved københavn og der drikke så mange muligheder for bål ud over de traditionelle. MEN jeg vil forsøge. Har nu brugt 12 timer med dig og dine videoer. Og jeg har hyggget mig. Forstod du er veteran af en slags. Jeg er i samme båd, men har slet ikke dit energi Nivå. Bare fortsæt. Det spiller bare.
I wanted to ask what would happen if you didnt cut off the ends of the overhanging logs. Like would it work fine without using a saw and just using fallen trees?
I suppose if you were to use an axe, you would not have to worry to much about tinder ;) some birch bark boom, fire 😎
My brother is t he very the #1 aweson man
It's 20 minutes to midnight here here but I want to go to the woods and make a Siberian log fire...
Just started watching your channel. Love the content and please keep up the good work.
long fire is USA/ siberean log fire the russian way.....the long fire needs much more material for shorter burn tim sooo i agree siblog fire the better way...
I would like to come to Russia someday and visit my Facebook and utube friends
Really appreciating this video, brother. Very good!
Excellent video of what works! Thank you.
Thanks for a good suggestion about minimal work to build an all-night fire.
I heard one of those mosquitoes attack your microphone @ 11:42 and again @ 17:15.
Careful you dont fall out of that treestand Lars, nobody around to hear you scream.
Joe Schlabotnick if a lars falls in a forest will you hear a scream?
Could this type of fire just be scaled down with smaller logs?
Excellent breakdown Lars. thanks for the step by step.
Nate
Yes! Been hoping for a video like this. Now I have a good reference video to show people.
I enjoyed learning the nuisances or non obvious details of this fire lay.
Sub-Share, subscribe,sub-bell? Sub-like. Sub-bell? is that what I hear?
not a bad job. i am an avionics technician for delta air lines in the usa. i am kind of stuck living near a big city due to my line of work.
You keep mentioning pine in this, I guess it's a given, that it doesn't have to be Pine.
It does not have to be pine, no :) The Evenki comes from an area dominated by pine trees, and I guess this is one way they made pine burn as long and efficient as possible.
Thank you.
Hi Lars nice to see ya doing great bud. All the best friend from England
VERY AWESOME VIDEO........MOST INFORMATIVE !! GREAT TO KNOW !!
Hey Lars.. an air vent under the main supporting Log, dead center. , Would rocket the cold air into the underside and channel the heat ,directly forward, can you please experiment ,w) a lower venthole and test the theory for me? I'm in the city and can't get up north
I would be willing to try this out for you bud. Lars is a ultra busy guy probably didn't get a chance to see your comment. but he has stated I don't know if in this video, but in previous videos that air Gap under the supporting log will cause the supporting log to burn out prematurely. But nothing ventured nothing gained.
Could you not theoretically substitute the bottom log with something that does not burn?
Too bad Russians aren’t as good at driving as they are survival skills 🤣
So if I understand correctly, you can not sing cumbaya with this fire?
Thanks for the tutorial, but I'm curious, do you need to feed the front of the fire at all once it's burning, or is it pretty much much self sustaining?
No Kumbaya :)
In the beginning you will have to feed the fire. Depending on the dryness of the logs, you will not have to feed fire later. Maybe a little if you want more flame.
But does the pointing stick have to be that length and diameter for the fire?
