As someone who’s been caught in a thunderstorm on the side of a mountain during a 3 day hike . . . I can tell you it’s way harder to start a fire in the rain (or shortly after) than most give it credit for. Get out and practice these skills. Most gimmicks do not work. What saved us on the trail was that one of the guys had a tube of fire starter paste. That was the only thing that held a flame long enough to dry anything out. First thing I did when I got home was add a tube of that to my fire kit.
A small bottle of highly flammable hand sanitizer in gel form works as well. You can also disinfect wounds with it or sanitize you hands if you get diarrea and run out of paper. It is very inexpensive.
Just finished making several containers of firestarters. Vaseline soaked cotton rounds that are then wax coated. Once you expose the fibers it burns well for several minutes. Lights easily with just a spark
This is great! Yes it is very likely ETs are here and have been for centuries. Our own government released footage from Commander David Fravor of the USS Nimitz class carrier. He was up in his F-18 and spotted the object. He picked it up on his FLIR or his other pilots did I forget exactly. I believe they have eye witness, ground radar, and air radar for these craft, plus video. Great video.
I usually carry a few tea candles and some old strips of sock soaked in wax for if I need a bigger burn. The candles can always double as a light source or easy cooking if I'm warming a can and the wax socks have never ceased to get a fire going. With wet, it is about quantity once you get something going and cheating to the getting something going stage is totally called for. Just quadruple the quantity of fuel you would normally gather in each size and keep it piled thick. You will lose a lot of heat to cooking the wood you will later be burning. If you really NEED the heat, make an elevated rack (like a table) so that your drying wood is elevated above the fire and then pull it down to feed the fire with. This will also reduce the steam/smoke you produce as well as give you better access to your heat at the cost of drying your wood slower. This is also a good strategy if you think there will be rain as you can use it like a roof to protect the fire (still pile it up like you would for any other rain underneath).
I love my relaxing visits with Maggie the amazing alien disguised as an ordinary dog! And you're okay too Jason, you compliment her performances. Boy she's really convincing as a regular old dog ya know it takes true talent to act so boringly normal. Ha ha ha 🤣!
Thanks for the tip! Same thing works if you take a small baggie with vasoline soaked cotton balls and keep them in your hat, or your Altoids emergency container!
Thanks for the tip. I will see if the cheap stuff will burn as well as the premium duct tape. I don't like the idea of burning the expensive tape if the cheap tape will do the job.
@@TheUglyAmerican007 do you think that all of the vastness of the universe could only be populated by we few here on this planet? No, I think life is a universal condition.
So you’re asking me a question in answering my question? I just asked why . It’s not like I e never thought of the vastness of the universe but there’s no reason to believe there’s other life merely based on the vastness.
Im a real alien & I can make fire using my mind power , it works in the rain & without duct tape. Im from a prosperous planet with no liberalism. Its swell!
Even if I was hearing impaired, I would still know this man is an American.. how you say, why by the duct tape is his hat.. by and by, it's a dead giveaway ❤
👽Aliens? Absolutely. As Robin Williams once said "..do the math." Nanu nanu. The real question would be ; have aliens ever visited? Space is too big for any of them to want to visit little old earth. 🌎
Based on what I've seen from politicians the last several years, I'm ready to concede that patrolling ET's might have dumped some defective androids on our fair planet.
Ask for questions, comments are just noise and you have some great information we would like to hear. So, question for you, say it’s raining, so can you share how you and Alan would set up your shelter and fire? Your goal being to dry out some and warm up, before continuing on, not an overnight.
From a probability perspective, it seems highly likely there is other life in the universe. Have they visited us? I certainly hope not, for chances are high we would not like the results. Look up the Fermi Paradox and the related concept of the Great Filter for reasons why.
Consider the half dozen or so races of intelligent beings recorded as angels. The word angel simply means a messenger. There are many recorded encounters of them in both ancient and modern literature and some truly terrifying forms. I would certainly classify them as alien to this world.
Yes I believe in aliens. If you believe in almighty GOD that he is the Alpha and the Omega and made this world and the universe, he can make anything! I feel that it would be very arrogant of us to believe that we are the only living souls in this whole universe!!
Why would God destroy the heavens and the Earth if there were other beings created by God in the universe? The only aliens are fallen angels and organic demon possessed beings like the greys.
You live in a dome surrounded by water. There is no outer space. This is the reason for why Jesus says He is from above and we are from below. He ascended upwards to sit at the right hand of God the Father. I'll explain. First there was water. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.” Genesis 1:2 And then there was a firmament, or dome by modern standards, placed in that water. “And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.” Genesis 1:7 We live in this same firmament today surrounded by water. This water was also used for noah's flood, when the "windows" of heaven opened. Your misunderstanding of the word heaven has to do with this. You see, heaven was the name given to the firmament we live inside of. God lives in the heavens of heavens, above the dome. This is why i say this. “And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.” Genesis 1:8 Here's a verse to further emphasize my points. “Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, And ye waters that be above the heavens.” Psalm 148:4 Very consistent and clear throughout the bible. Let me know if you want more of the biblical cosmology, the true cosmology to how this world actually works.
They are Demons, not aliens. Children of the Fallen Angels in Genesis 6. If you read extra-biblical Enoch 1 it's all described very well. Their return was predicted throughout the Bible. Yeah, sounds out there (no pun...) but there it is.
As a former occultist every time me & my friends conjured demonic entities by opening interdimensional doorways they always looked like alien greys. They are extra-dimensional beings.

Teacup candle is the budget solution. You can get a pack of them for a dollar at the Tree.

Wall of text 👍🏼
@@TheUglyAmerican007 Walls are good for keeping out the illiterate, unwashed masses. We need more walls.
It’s only a matter of time before the aliens come in introduce ourselves
Wet wood - nothing that napalm cannot set alight!
:)
Great tip, thanks for sharing.

Great tip! Have you considered that we may be the aliens?
Yeah,,,,,yeah they are out there....good video Brother ~John
U saved our weekend
👽🛸👍🏽 Where can I get that hat?
Same here
5 civilizations in this galaxy alone. SETI
Excellent Information! Thanks Brother. Have a Great Weekend.
Great video and tip ! Yeppers... They are out there!
You have good ideas.
Thanks!
@@ONThree
You're welcome!
Nice tip, duck tape, I like it!!!
Thanks, I believe in aliens🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cool tip! Gonna try that. When we find aliens we'll be disappointed that they are only one-celled creatures without spaceships. :( lol
Yes, we are not alone
Love the hat btw! I never knew about this duct tape trick. I absolutely will try it.
Great tip!
Nice 👍
Thanks ✌
Neat trick!
I think my first wife was an alien.
I think I married her sister..
Mulder and Skully are out there!
Great tip. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the tip. I will see if the cheap stuff will burn as well as the premium duct tape. I don't like the idea of burning the expensive tape if the cheap tape will do the job.
Did it work?
Great info!!! Thank you!!!
Currently homeless and just used this video to start fire and cook
What is the list of things you keep in you hat
Yes I believe the universe is teeming with life.
Why ?
@@TheUglyAmerican007 do you think that all of the vastness of the universe could only be populated by we few here on this planet? No, I think life is a universal condition.
So you’re asking me a question in answering my question? I just asked why . It’s not like I e never thought of the vastness of the universe but there’s no reason to believe there’s other life merely based on the vastness.
Why couldn’t it be only populated by the few ?
@@TheUglyAmerican007 obviously you don't want there to be other populations, and that's ok with me.
Statistically, it's almost certain aliens exist. Somewhere...
Another pointer, if it has been raining, try to keep your fire start up off the ground.
Nice
Jason, where is the best place to Buy a fire rod that's about 1/2in.round and 5 or 6 in.long...
Yup they out there
I love the education that you’re giving me. I don’t believe and I don’t disbelieve in aliens.
I’d like to think Aliens exist. If we are alone in the universe, it’s either really cool, or terrifying as h*ll. Just a thought.
They’re out there
The sticks were dry..... He should have left them in the water at least 2-3 hours.....
Yes,to say the to say the least..
...nanu Nanu...🖖👽💙...
But how would the aliens dry their wood? What's in THEIR hat?
Aliens? You mean besides Alan Kay? 😁
They are already here brother.
Well I'll be damned doesn't matter how old you are you can still learn and yes I believe in aliens
i believe!!!!!!
No aliens lol
We need more granny stories
What do you do if you don't have duct tape… come on bro…
@@marcellcordova7414 buy some 🤷🏼♂️
Now I need to try that. No I don't believe in aliens. I'm pretty sure human beings are enough. Haha!
Im a real alien & I can make fire using my mind power , it works in the rain & without duct tape. Im from a prosperous planet with no liberalism. Its swell!
not very bushcraft mate
There's definitely more to the universe than us.
I worked for Green Bank Observatory (until they fire me for not getting the shot). They have not heard any ET on their antennas.
Even if I was hearing impaired, I would still know this man is an American.. how you say, why by the duct tape is his hat.. by and by, it's a dead giveaway ❤
Is there a way to start fire with soaking wet wood logs?
If you split the logs down the center is usually pretty dry.
@@SurvivalDispatch ok thx.
Aliens are made out of duct tape and lighter fluid. And btw, great advice to start a fire during difficult conditions!
Wet wood will burn but not green wood.
👽Aliens? Absolutely. As Robin Williams once said "..do the math." Nanu nanu.
The real question would be ; have aliens ever visited? Space is too big for any of them to want to visit little old earth. 🌎
How was that done traditionally? Always keep some dry twigs in an oil cloth?
Based on what I've seen from politicians the last several years, I'm ready to concede that patrolling ET's might have dumped some defective androids on our fair planet.
I just carry a jerry can with me and a box of matches.
Vaseline/ Neosporin and cotton all in a straw fire sealed with pliers
That's what I use for an Altoid tin kit. Too little fuel for a serious kit though, IMO
Now, do that without a light or duck tape
Yes I believe in aliens
I doubt this would work in those florida summer rains
I always have a galon of gasoline in my cap so easy peasy.
I am a fan of "the greys". Not impressed with "little green men" unless they are soldiers made of plastic. Had many a war with those troops!

I did a video not too long ago showing just that. Thanks for the question! I’ll post a link to it in a minute.

Some 87 octane might be nice!
I don't know if aliens exist or not but if they do and they ever visit I'm thinking it's not going to turn out well for us.
Only aliens I believe in other ones that it on UA-cam.
I believe in aliens ! NOPE !!
What if I don't wear a hat though? :(

If they are out there, they have to answer to God like we do. Lol

Yes, they are out there. We cannot be so pompous to think we are the only high brain function creatures ( well most of us) of this vast universe
Dude, why do you insult my intelligence? Love your vids but this one I would expect from a 12yro.
They are Demons, not aliens. Children of the Fallen Angels in Genesis 6. If you read extra-biblical Enoch 1 it's all described very well. Their return was predicted throughout the Bible. Yeah, sounds out there (no pun...) but there it is.
If you're you read comic books you'll have a different perspective.

@@woodspirit98 if you read comic books your in a fantasy world and not reality. Food for thought
I have done my research on nephilim and agree to what you said. They are demons. Fallen angels. We are in a spiritual battle.
Absolutely NOT!
Yes, we are not alone
