Stone Axes from the sky

- Join me on an adventure to the tip of a mountain to get a stone that was famous for making axe heads 4,000 years ago.
On this adventure me and my good friend Josh head up to the Cumbrian mountains for the green stone that was celebrated for its beautiful qualities during the Neolithic period

Wow. ❤❤❤❤. What a view. !!!
your videos relay fire the imagination you are the the neolithic man 4000 years ago making a stone axe that must have been a wonderful time to live in
for our ancestors it was probably a chore and something they had to do, but for us today its a fascinating hobby. Makes me want to flintknap where they once did but with a beer on the side and always remember to pick up your trash and some other jerks trash they left behind.
more like a lost art tbh
oh yeah dont litter
Fantastic video 👍 thanks for sharing your adventures and knowledge 😊
Much love from your friends in Wales Ritchie Veteran and Raven x
There would be something magical about reworking one of those pieces of cast-off and making a finished tool. With all honor of course
Leave no trace 👍
When you find a good rock, and you don't want to lose it, you carry it up the mountain. I get it.
I try to set them on the trail, but sometimes you don't take the same path back. You lose your cool rocks.
Hahaha
I really enjoyed this video!
Top video 👌🏼greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🏴🤩💪🤘
Thanks for sharing your adventures, Will. Used to be I loved nothing more than to just take off on a nature hike and let my feet follow my nose to wherever it led. These days I'm crippled up and stuck in bed, just a dodgy old codger. So, following your adventures is a way for me to see the world through your eyes and share an adventure with you good blokes. Seeing these videos is the next best thing to being there... Adventure ever on mate, Phat🏹
Josh looks well happy. Don’t blame him👍
This is my new fave UA-cam channel. That view when you get to the top! Well worth it. I can almost feel the victory through the screen 👏 🏔
Keep the uploads coming 🎉 😊 can’t beat the mug shot pasta 😋 nothing better than an open fire and the wilderness. Glad to see people looking after their surroundings and being respectful to the caves. Mother Earth.
I love this video
Just amazing... every bit of it was _amazing_ ! Thank you!
Cheers David
Jaw dropping
Enjoying following you around the UK (I guess it is) in the footsteps of our ancestors 👍 Two happy guys having fun, you two have to make more videos together! That quarry what an amazing place!
Great to see you again this weekend Will...Be Free 🕊Timba
Wow, fantastic adventure.
You two on tv would blow peoples minds 👍😊
The joy on your face is contagious. So much positivity. I could watch you do anything and be enthralled. Good on you my friend.
I remember climbing up part of Tryfan years ago on a swelteringly hot day, found a nice big lump of purple slate on a scree slope, put it in my rucksack and climbed back down with it. Then I went back to my tent at the Nant Peris campsite and lay there in my tent for hours in the sweltering heat. I think I had a mix of exhaustion and a bit of heatstroke. I have a vague memory of quickly brewing up some dried liberty caps and drinking it before laying there for hours. I still have that pretty slab of purple slate from Tryfan lol
Lol that’s quite a story 😂
I'm jealous! Too bad i can't finda big piece in America, i'd spend whater time needed to make my own. That neolithic scree slope puts their Herculean task in perspective.What an Amazing site to behold!!
Hence the saying ‘he’s got an axe to grind’ to connote someone with a long-standing issue. Makes perfect sense now lol! Thank you so much!
Truly a master Will
Really enjoyed that Will... thanks, great to see you working happy in your natural environment.
Much fun!
Hello will Lord can you can you flintknap a Cumberland or Clovis spear point ?they're found here in North America that they date during 14,000 11,000 years ago ancient ice age native Americans there's a technique they use called fluting supposed to be the hardest thing in Flint napping you can check on Google images and UA-cam videos... Can you please do a video thank you awesome channel learning from you :)
fascinating to have a experts eye on that scree slope. I have hand axe made by your father, greatly treasured by me.
Fantastic adventure and wonderful rewards.
love it!
You done in now WIll. Next time I'm up a mountain or peak by a scree slope, I'm going to be obsessively looking for stone tools and knapable stone lol
history repeats
Great video. You both look like video game characters.
What amazing nature 👀❤ absolutely stunning place! Thank you for sharing looks like you guys had an amazing time. 🤟
fell runners run down there ...and the scree slopes of Conisiton too, it's a bit like skiing but without the skis, very exhilerating, but moves a lot of the scree as it's 35 degree slope !
Great video. Amazing how the presence of particular rock types lead to the building of civilisations in our country and across the globe.
Can you bring some rain back south I had forgotten what green looks like.
Wow that scree slope was incredible - super interesting - great vid well done
An awesome adventure and I guess you didn't see the Dragons there as you didn't mention them, but they saw you as we can see then in your video watching and actually you were sitting on an Earth Dragon energy line when you were knapping that axe, they reside in the stone you took home 🐉🐉🐲🙏
good adventure men. what type of rock is it?
Group 6 Langdale greenstone tuff
thank you@@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival
He picked up a rock and looked at you and you knew exactly what he was thinking... How we men can communicate without words! I suspect I'll never be able to communicate like that with any woman. Ten thousand words still wouldn't work. Thoughts WE communicate with a simple glance or pointing at something or some direction. It's not ALL men. Just most of us on the same wave length. If there's a name for this, I don't know what it is. Just a universal truism. I sure enjoy these videos.
That is impressive. Seems almost industrial in size or it was on use/demand for a very long time. I've never seen anything like that!
Hello greetings from bosnia 🙋👍 me and my father especially I I look for Indian arrowheads here in the US. I'm also still learning how to Flint knapping I've been doing it for 3 years hopefully Master it me my father also do magnetfishing and metal detecting very fun hobby I like going in the creeks and the farms to find stuff... This is our 1st channel our 2nd channel is called bosnia magnet fishing.
I think the first scree slope I ever climbed was at Castleton in Derbyshire, where I and a couple of others were looking for small blue john crystals. I actually a few years later found a nice purple-blue looking crystal of blue john near the cave entrace at Mam Tor, where there was a bit of the ground eroding away and it was sticking out of the side of the maybe 1 foot high cliff of soil
At 15:21 I think you were holding a digging tool.....not a axe head.
The best things are done on the spur of the moment 😉😉
Hodge Close , Coniston ... had the great pleasure of abseiling down the cliff and landing on the tracks way back in the seventies on a school trip , sadly the cliff has suffered a major rockfall and such activity is now not allowed ... 😞
All that giggling. Did you guys bring a box of whip-its with you?😆🍻
Loved all your videos, for some reason it won't allow me to activate all notifications 😢
would love to see the final piece... is it done?
Did you ever read "the Morraine" by Simon Bestwick? My very favorite short horror story ever... (for when you want to climb that NEXT scree slope...)
Squeeze the air out of the bottle and retighten the lid, if possible, makes room for more rubbish.
Will, why is the axe debitage so close to the surface after 4,000 years? Why is it not further underground?
It’s so thick nothing can grow through it mate
@@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival That's insane to think how many thousands of hours of human labor went into that factory. Thanks, Will
What was that mountain called again? Couldn't make it out in the dialogue.
I started laughing pretty good when you said drink it bitch 🤣🤣
😂😎😎👍
When you grind an axe do you do it by hand on a grind-stone, or do you have a grindmill type "machine" you use?
They use a coarse grain rock like sandstone and rubbed the axe on it till it was smooth
@@LukeMiddleton-k5g I know, but in hand or with a mill type thing?
Beavis and Butthead at Hard rock cafe´ :-D
So you're saying you've got an axe to grind, thanks to something Will Lord made you do...? 🤣
Yeah leave only footprints.
