      Good to see a soldier of the NZ defense force going strong to this day.
      Both of my families carry titles in all the forces, although few come close to your experience:
      -Father's a Flight Sergeant Uniform and Fabric/Graphics designer, and leads the team that makes new uniforms for Air Force recruits in Woodbourne.
      -Mother's the Main accommodations and Catering manager for ESS, and manages all the people across the bases around NZ after being primarily based in Woodbourne and Bernham pre-2020. (She is only civil but she makes sure that the military and civil visitors are well-fed and maintained throughout the sites like Waiouru, Devonport, Linton and all the others)
      -Family member in my mother's side is a distinguished rank in the army, (Don't want to give too much away for classification reasons but they're along the lines of a 4-star major/colonel [Don't remember which one] that is based in the lower north island)
      -I do plan to enlist as an Aviation Engineer in the future myself, but I'm currently gaining life experience and am trying to lose as much weight as possible before going for it (Need the experience before going in, I'm currently overweight for my body class and a bit out of shape after a bad few years prior)
      -Great Grandfather served in WWII as Navy (He was a Retired Reverend in Motueka before he passed in his 90's)
      Thank you for your service.

You have the right idea of using the trash bags to help build your bed up off the ground and the walls you built up as well. I have learned so much by watching you and David Canterbury's videos and hope to put that knowledge into action when camping out. I will be checking out the gear you recommend on your site and see which ones I don't have and get them to add to my backpack as long as it don't add too much weight. Food is about the only thing I really need in my pack since I already have the basics in it. Thanks for sharing all the information with us all and I love watching your videos and learn something new each time.

    I love the narrative. When I was 13 a young star scout I went thru a Snow Survivals BSA Test in a Saddle at the base of Sugarloaf Mt. 2 Explorer Leaders grabbed my 50 lbs. Backpack and 1,2,3 lobbed it into the 6’ Snow Universe as I watched and my first instinct I followed that pack 20 or so feet thru Ingulfing Snow. Today I watch your skill set and remember. 🇺🇸

      I agree. Open shelters like his, especially in the dark of night, can be troubling. The thought of having a wall would definitely help me.

      amy fletcher In a way, since he said there was clay & mud, I'm a bit surprised he didn't opt to use it to fill in any gaps for his walls.
      The fire would've hardened it into a brick like substance, giving him a partial "spit & waddle" house / wall like structure

    Did he just build a fence in the middle of the woods with a piece of wood and some more wood? I am thoroughly impressed. Everything about this screams genius! Thank you for sharing! Based on this alone I feel that I could survive in the woods and I’m from Chicago.

    I just showed my husband this video tonight (he's still in a nursing home). He really enjoyed it and said, "that guy is smart!" I call him my Daniel Boone because he has hunted deer with an 1891 Marlin lever action safety rifle (mine now), has trapped, skinned, and mounted small animals and tanned deer hides, and has fished the creeks in western New York and Lake Erie for walleyes (also other fish) and used to catch frogs to sell or eat their legs, which he loves. Yet, he never learned what you teach. So, thank you.
