      Best comment. I never dreamt one day of having such a range of materials to watch. Like you, I'll jump from a doc on a philosopher's or artist's life to something like this, which was wonderful how he filmed the whole process, btw, to an instructional guide on which glue to buy or on Japanese cooking. Cable tv has never come close to matching this type of diversity. Finally, this is the age of education on steroids.

    Maybe I’m looking into this too much, but I definitely felt a bit somber watching such a big majestic tree get cut down. Knowing it was dying already made me feel better about it, and furthermore Rune, I just really appreciate and respect the thoughtfulness and care you give to everything in your videos. Counting the rings and writing the age of the tree felt like you were paying your respects to the tree, in a way. Maybe I’m weird. But I felt that. Can’t wait to see more videos from your newly acquired land.

    Notice folks how he never over swings his axe. Each swing he is letting the Axe head do its job by biting in. Patient and steady. People break their axe handles or say wood handles aren't as good as steel. Not true, Its technique that keeps your axe alive for years and gets work done.

I remember to learn how to fish,"fight", throw axes there was no internet, no buildings, no annoying or hurried people, there whas just me and my parents and our animals, kilometers away from any people. This "loneliness", was so amazing to me...
    I remember to feel safe and invencible with my family, but in the end of the day my mother told me an history and I felt just like the happiest girl in the earth. I really miss this times everyday of my life, was so fun and simple. I know you probably won't see this but...

    Just a few things I'd like to say.
    I think your videos are amazing, sure there are other bushcrafters out there.. but the audio, the video, the angles, the peacefulness in scenery. To me, it is absolutely fantastic and healing. Everyone has its own touch which I enjoyed too but I liked yours the most. They help a lot in these difficult times. All your efforts you made in your videos did sure help others as well and they might even be inspired to do their own thing. I think I speak for all if I say, "We all miss you Bertram!". I hope you are safe and healthy, we are all excited to see some more towards the end of the year.
    Keep the good vibes up, smiling man! :-)
