@@TheWoodedBeardsman thank you because I have two Yorkies and they are sometimes in my back yard late night so I know to yell because I normally carry a bat outside or my gun.
Just found this channel, and I have to say, this guy’s personality absolutely makes it. I get to further reinforce my knowledge of the outdoors, and chuckle along the way! What’s not to love?
My way of helping you is I pull up your channel, turn on auto play, and watch you videos while I go to bed and when I fall asleep they keep playing all night.
Lol same you know who else is really great for this? Look up my self reliance him and his dog cali. Simply amazing. But this man here is so genuine as well great to have in the background no matter what you're doing
Chris your channel and videos have helped me tremendously. I broke my ankle last year and had 6 surgeries 3 casts 2 metal cages and a boot on my foot and im still laid up because i keep getting an infection in there and i fell 2 months ago and re-broke it again and its basically shattered. There is no solid bone left to put plates and screws in there to repair it. I cannot walk on it at all so im basically in the bed or in my wheelchair and it is extremely depressing and your videos put a smile on my face every time i watch them. I thoroughly enjoy watching you go out in the wilderness and live off the land. I learn allot from your videos but most of all they make me happy and i just wanna say thank you very much!! Much love, from Denise Flick Pittsburgh PA USA
Hang in there, Denise! Life's been a little unfair from me but just hearing your story has given me some inspiration. Just shows you can find it anywhere. You have a great attitude and I just want to say thank you for reminding me of that. All you can do is roll with this thing called life. Take care!
ok take your compass reading at your city steps walk to corner market the take a 180 degree look and thats back home less tree's but same effect lol lol lol i was born in chicago lol lol
now once you do this in city have some fun. now think what it i wantet to be at say pizza place. well it's the same in woods but lots more tree's so make it fun now and when it's serious you be just fine lol
"That's what we do on the channel isn't it? We don't want to be these goons out there in the woods that are starving." my man. Instant like, and sub. This is good stuff dude.
I was raised a bit different than most girls. My dad taught me how to get by in the woods, mountains, etc. starting at age 6. From waterproof matches, to water purification pills and so on. What to eat what not to eat, how to catch things. Now the "grubs" was a bit rough, but some of the other stuff wasn't half bad. Now much older, I am amazed at how many people would die within a week if stranded out somewhere. Birch bark for asprin, certain bugs, roots, bulbs, yep, he told me "Be prepared in case you need to take care of yourself in the wild till you can be found, or help comes, or you find someone" Lessons learned.
Sorry just wanted to let other girls know that being a girly girl is good, but in the world there are things they also need to be able to do on their own. In other words in an emergency don't just scream and cry about it.....handle it.
Not trying to be rude but you should look up the definition of ASMR talking videos are ASMR so what I saw in your comment was "I like your ASMR videos more than your ASMR videos."
I used to go camp in the same spot in our timber every fall. There is a spot where the terrain and all the oaks conspire to deposit TONS of leaves. I used to love burrowing into that pile and sleeping. That grass squirrel nest you made reminded me of that.
Of all the outdoor camping, bushcraft, survival videos i've ever seen, this one is my favorite. I wish you did more like this. It has the comfortable outdoor living. Most people just focus on 'SURVIVAL' 'EXTREME'. The world has enough of them. You remind me of Ray Mears old stuff before the 2000s hit and every outdoor channel started to become Xtreme. You make several experiments with this one, such as gathering materials to set a trap that fail, but it doesn't matter because you are in your element. You pick up a nest, and just share what you find along the way. Feels like a fairy tale in a way. The environment is also breathtaking. If you ever read this comment, please share the location. Your channel name should also be Woodbeard. Hope all is well in Canada.
My favorite video that you have ever made! It is so good. My boys and I really got into a discussion about being lost and what to do. Good going Chris.
Does anyone else find this guy extremely likeable? I don’t know but I was sitting there listening to him babble about being off traffic and I felt like I was sitting there with a friend.
Chris. You crossed the line from survival into bushcraft when you put those lighters back in your pocket and made a bow drill. Personally I would have made a raised bed and used the lighter for the fire. That’s just me though. Good job. Good video.
From watching Dave Canterbury UA-cam channel from years a go I have a couple lighters water proof matches lint from the dryer a couple ferro rods an some Vaseline soaked cotton balls I wanna be able to get a fire going no matter what
Lol, started watching and thought "i bet he's in Ontario, it looks like Ontario" and then the lighter from Lucky 13 part came and it was like "YUP, definitely Ontario" haha
I took a Wilderness Survival class a few yrs back, the Navy Seal teaching it showed us a great way to maximize your paracord. If it's true 550, you can take the main cover off and break down the strands inside and use them to tie tarps, fish stringers, tie bundles etc. GREAT videos, I started watching them last week 01/2021. I've watched over 20hrs of footage so far. Keep up the good work.
Man, i remember when there was not o many people around here. Today i was like, let me check on this dude , he always bring good content. Just to realize you already have over 1m subs, thats insane!! Gratz man! Keep the good work up
I enjoyed your adventure. I started hunting, trapping and fishing in the mountains alone when I was 8 years old. I am now 79 and my adventures are limited. I am 38% of native American decent thanks to my great grandmother and I learned early how not to get lost. Always note the direction of travel when you start and always look back to see where you have been. Bring a compass and matches. Looking back as you walk builds a memory bank of knowledge. Every tree and stone in the mountains have their own personality to find your way back to safety.
been there more than a couple times myself. In my opinion, the best way to avoid panic is to be prepared to spend a night or two in the woods. Being so prepared, being lost can become an unplanned camping adventure. ;-)
it is pretty crazy but i think people who cant get out and want to be out just enjoy watching other folks. a lot of times nothing needs to be said. just somebody chillin in the woods doing things we all know how to do.
Thatd be cool in a vid. The words smallest chain saw. Take extra batteries. Maybe Milwaukee will sponsor you. Thaat might be a new bushcraft tool. Electric saw. Wow
"This bed is super comfy" About to sleep... then something howls in the distance 😂 so hilarious i hope you slept well there. Great video by the way. All i did was watch your vids the whole day. really enjoyed it and I've learned something.
If you just watched the end and didn't check for more videos, one could assume that he was attacked by coyotes and recovering in the hospital 🤣😂🤣 Great video!
Excellent. Began gathering skills working for the Youth Conservation Corps reworking Barr Trail (Pikes Peak) during the Summer of '77. A teen on a dark path was given a choice, Barr or pick up trash downtown. That decision changed my life. Live on.
My first piece of advice is always have a “safety bearing” like a road or river or hydro cut that you can’t miss if you head in a rough cardinal direction.
@@rjstewart *I noticed on your channel you have a respect for the keto diet. We've practicing keto for 2 years now. How do you feel about intermittent fasting as a subtle training for potential food shortages, famine?*
Christian Prepper it’s like you are in my head lol. At the point in the video where he is talking about calories I was thinking about this. I do IF and when I go out hunting I will often eat for the first time when I get home in the evening. Not only is it a healthy lifestyle from my research but it’s also good training for a survival situation. Not so much physical training but mental training. If you’re out there thinking “I have to get food!!!” you will not do as well as someone who has practice fasting and has built up confidence that the hunger pains will go away and know they are NOT going to die or pass out if they don’t eat today. Also there’s the fact most of us carry several days or more worth of fat reserves on our bodies! Lol
@@rjstewart *"and know that they are NOT going to die or pass out if they don't eat today", is the most insightful comment I've heard yet. On the Discovery show "Dual Survival", Cody Lundin was always saying that because their objective was to be rescued within 3 days, food was not top of the list & simple grazing wild foods would suffice but WATER & THERMOREGULATION is top of the list.* *Sadly though most westerners, especially Americans, are brainwashed into thinking 3 meals a day PLUS snacks is necessary.*
Christian Prepper I like the rule of 3s you probably know already. It helps to prioritize things. A fire for example is probably top of my list because it can keep you from freezing long before you die of thirst. It can provide light and keep predators away at night and smoke to keep bugs away too. It can be used to sanitize water as well of course. There is one aspect of the rule of 3s I heard once and fire plays into this too. It’s “You can’t survive 3 seconds without hope”. Obviously it’s hyperbolic but it’s a good point to remember and starting a fire is a positively uplifting thing for the human spirit! Just ask Tom Hanks! Lol
Just started binging a bunch of your videos as of yesterday. I'm in NB so it's really cool seeing someone in wilderness that looks similar to what we have around here. And dealing with the Canadian laws, provincial regs etc. Been getting into hunting the last few years and looking to do more of it this year, and hopefully have a bit of success as a novice snowshoe-hare-snarer.
May help for the walking in a circle issue. When doing land navigation in military we'd point the compass in a direction and see what specific tree the straight line goes to.
It's fun to watch people surviving in the woods like this, but it's no fun when the channel stop uploadings. Keep up the good content and stay safe bro, glad I found your channel.
Hunter-gatherer adults usually live until 60 years old. The average lifespan was so low because there was a lot of death during childbirth. Also, hunter-gatherers lived in a tribe and usually had all afternoon too hang out and relax because the hunting and gathering would be done in the morning.
I know what you mean about the struggle with the channel. Ive had a hard go getting my channel up and running. I enjoy making them tho. Keep up the good work
Why do people downthumb these videos... They are so.. personal... And 'unprofessional' that they are relatable and easy to learn from. I feel like I am sitting in these situations with a teacher and friend.. rather than some guy on youtube... so I have no idea why people thumb these down... Keep up the work!
The best way is make a fire before leaving. A safe way away from other things that can burn. If you need to find your way back look for smoke and follow that.
grandpa planted a few in his yard for shad just pissed off grandma she got stuck with the mess and having to dodge falling walnuts and squires taking the stuffing out of grandmas lawn furnature i did so get a kick as my grandpa was a great guy now the trees are over doing thier job and needed some pruning i used the wood for smoking pork ribs it was great i think my grandpa would be proud
The most impressive thing about your video, which was a pleasure to watch in general, was you overt optimism. If I were lost, I think it would be difficult for me to muster the kind of genuine optimism you displayed. Still, you made it clear to me that real survival necessitates a positive mental attitude and you have that in spades. Thank you for all the great tips.
I totally got lost and wandered in circles on Vancouver island once. I set up my camp by a giant downed tree, and went to the river to get water. As I tried to find my camp, I just wandered around and around in circles until it got dark so I made a camp by a big log and started a fire and made a bed of fir boughs. I remember the day before how there was an orange piece of plastic hanging from a tree, and I thought that’s terrible, but the next day that plastic showed me the way to my camp. I was lucky, because the raccoons didn’t eat my trail mix. Peace
Thank you for what you and your fellow experts do for us. I'm certain that your channel will continue to evolve as you see fit. Do it! It will always be worth watching.
Ey respect what experience you already have in the field of survival and outdoor! I left a subscription, I don't want to miss anything anymore. Keep it up I'll check out your other videos. LG Connar Outdoor
You’re comment on walking in circles is spot on. I’m ambi dexterous so for whatever reason it’s not such a problem for me. I take 12 steps forward,leading with my right,then 6 leading with left. Keeps me on track for whatever reason. May not work for all.
I've always made my thunderheads with a small 3-4in piece of a branch. I have never thought of using a full branch and use my forearm for leverage. Thank you!
I used to be such an athlete but I've been through two bots of cancer three surgeries and I love the outdoors so I love watching your videos I wish I could do those things again. I'm still striving for it

I know what you mean about the struggle with the channel. Ive had a hard go getting my channel up and running. I enjoy making them tho. Keep up the good work
Why do people downthumb these videos... They are so.. personal... And 'unprofessional' that they are relatable and easy to learn from. I feel like I am sitting in these situations with a teacher and friend.. rather than some guy on youtube... so I have no idea why people thumb these down... Keep up the work!

The best way is make a fire before leaving. A safe way away from other things that can burn. If you need to find your way back look for smoke and follow that.
Like French kissing a squirrel. Bu-AHahaha!
Too many visuals!
One of the few UA-camrs who really deserves the like🤘🏼
Long time no see brother, glad you're still kicking and got a good following now
You got some fans!!!! ,,,,,,,,those are some numbers,,,,,,When Your Lost,,,A million of us are Lost !!!😂🤣😅😆😅.......Legendary.

Ha, you grandpa is awesome!
Really like the way you are wearing something catchy and clear...in jungle every moving thing looks like a animal from a distance..
DONT LIKE THE SILENT VIDS I WOULD PROLLY STOP WATCHING.I ALWAYS WATCH ALL THE WAY
The most impressive thing about your video, which was a pleasure to watch in general, was you overt optimism. If I were lost, I think it would be difficult for me to muster the kind of genuine optimism you displayed. Still, you made it clear to me that real survival necessitates a positive mental attitude and you have that in spades. Thank you for all the great tips.
I never leave the house without a hat, lighter, knife, sunglasses (safety glasses), and 9mm.
I totally got lost and wandered in circles on Vancouver island once. I set up my camp by a giant downed tree, and went to the river to get water. As I tried to find my camp, I just wandered around and around in circles until it got dark so I made a camp by a big log and started a fire and made a bed of fir boughs. I remember the day before how there was an orange piece of plastic hanging from a tree, and I thought that’s terrible, but the next day that plastic showed me the way to my camp. I was lucky, because the raccoons didn’t eat my trail mix. Peace
Thank you for what you and your fellow experts do for us. I'm certain that your channel will continue to evolve as you see fit. Do it! It will always be worth watching.
Ey respect what experience you already have in the field of survival and outdoor! I left a subscription, I don't want to miss anything anymore. Keep it up I'll check out your other videos.

No water. "I've got a little bit of water in a canteen" ... Ok
I've gotten turned around a few times hunting partridge in New Brunswick...but there are logging roads EVERYWHERE, you eventually end up on one.
Thumbs up if you really started to blow along like real woodsmen do
Can't believe I am admitting it. Haha. But I did!
I could listen to this guy ramble all day.
"My hands are sensitive" 😆
Your man card has been revoked, shave the beard immediately 😂
You’re comment on walking in circles is spot on. I’m ambi dexterous so for whatever reason it’s not such a problem for me. I take 12 steps forward,leading with my right,then 6 leading with left. Keeps me on track for whatever reason. May not work for all.
"never hooped a thing in my life." probably one of the most Canadian sounding sentences I've heard
Was just heading down to comment something similar!
I've always made my thunderheads with a small 3-4in piece of a branch. I have never thought of using a full branch and use my forearm for leverage. Thank you!
The wrong time of year now ,but that squ nest can be full of flees.
Can’t believe it took so long to find this channel. I have a serious binge day in my future. Keep up the great work.
Dude built himself a manger 😂😂 3 guys will be arriving shortly
I used to be such an athlete but I've been through two bots of cancer three surgeries and I love the outdoors so I love watching your videos I wish I could do those things again. I'm still striving for it
I wish you would have made the bow drill set on camera I could use a learning experience
I have made more than an few!
