Very interesting, thanks a lot! Learned a lot of stuff.
Some good tips, . . . too much iodine will shut down your kidneys. Keep a knife and a source of fire on you at all times. Shelter and water are priority.
wow how did u upload a 1 hour vid
I often go hiking in the woods for days on end. dressed only in only a diaper, non-cotton of course…..and a ribbon in my hair…..
the best way to treat water is boiling u can even do the boiling in the tin foil
The Red or Green shirt is a must for all survival kits…..and as an EMT he went a bit out of his scope of practice giving advice on treatments….sometimes wrong advice….still a great video.
I found the video to be very interesting and I gained some knowledge except for where he said “Epi” or Epinephrine is a “vasodialator”..its not…it is a Vasoconstricter…it causes you blood vessels to become narrow and it forces blood into the core for perfusion…hence y its used in cardiac arrests..in higher dose…I noticed that the speaker gets easily distracted….but he still gave a lot of tips which are very useful. I’m going to include somethings he mentioned into my survival kit.
this is the first hour-long vid i have seen
agreed this guy could have had a thirty second vid saying “buy a red shirt and you will live” rather than tons of other common sense facts mixed in there making it an hour long video
I thought I’d hear the full story before making a decision.You know, hear all facts first? Thats what educated people do.I kept waiting for something of value, sadly it never came.He has to keep checking his paper, not too convincing that even he knows what he’s talking about. If I said I didn’t like it & didn’t even watch it that would be a pretty dumb statement. Could have just said ” buy a red shirt” and that’d about the meat of the class. Red shirts = Guaranteed survival in any environment.
you are a waste if you didnt like what you were seeing why did you continue to watch the video for a whole hour?
I wish I could have my hour of life back. What a waste.
dmn its an hour long what the hell?!?!
where are these classes?
May be long but well worth watching.
IT’S AN HOUR LONG IT BETTER DAMN WELL HELP
lol
long ass video
