Roy stole muh gloves...lol....(good gloves, guaranteed not to "drip")

Western Oregon is brutal with the wetness. If I had a choice to get lost somewhere, W Oregon wouldn't be at the top of the list. Eastern Oregon much better, with a lot less rain forest wetness.

What a great experiment.

Simple answer is yes

We love you Roy!

Great Job..Roy..

WOW Caleb got roasted!

Great video! I have one of the BK knives, I put Goon Tape (hockey tape) on the handle and it’s a lot better.

Thank you to all you good people still giving their love to the Paul Harrell channel.

I'm enjoying the videos, Roy!

😊

Thank you Roy. Great information. I have gotten where I cannot put my shoes on easily so I think I probably need to start doing yoga.

The homeless survive for months and years in tents in all weather conditions in the city where crime and danger are a reality. Woods survival is just camping because survival is an accident with little prepared supplies, and it would be no fun and not easy. Mountain men of the old west were tough under extreme conditions with what they had and unlike today had to fight Indians and illness without phones or cameras or modern supplies. Survival sucks no one would want to be lost or injured in the woods and most likely would not have survival supplies just what you have on you in public.

Sounds like great advice. you really seem to be in your element! Thanks!

Hi Roy, can you enable super thanks. I really enjoyed this video. Kudos to you and thank you for inspiring us all.

I think you should do this again but in the Ozarks. Thank you for another great chance to learn a few things.

You should grab a silnylon tarp - lighter than a tent, reusable, configurable for any type of shelter you might want.

I wish Paul was still here. Every time I search for the next video I want to look for here on KZbin I have to experience remembering that Paul isn’t here anymore. It’s odd caring so much about a friend I never even got to meet.

At the age of 15 in 1985 , I and 2 friends went camping in early March. North East Iowa tends to be a bit temperamental in the spring. We had no shelter, only sleeping bags. We got snowed on and each lit a fire and quickly found out how to get the rescue crew out with 3 fires going 😊

Nice stuff Roy!

Great video! Thanks!

Great video!

Three days? He looks like he is going out for three weeks!

I’ve never seen this man in my life, but it still makes me sad

Rest up Paul! 🪦

Thanks for keeping educated and informed. And keeping Paul channel alive.

Loved this. Thanks, Roy!

Good effort, youre also right about cotton. The old solution was wool. Some tips. It helps to build a lean-to shelter with a bench to get off the ground. This takes less than half a day and will keep you dry and warmer when insulated with debris. Also a wall to the fire will direct a lot of extra heat. With wet wood, look for dead standing, not green wood. It won't be wet on the inside. This is why you need a hatchet and hand saw. Finally focus on hot food and teas. Boiling water helps clean it and will keep you warm for about an hour. Well done and thanks for sharing your attempt.

"beats the heck out of no saw" love it!!!

I enjoy watching you challenge yourself in this video. Thanks.

I love that chest rig 👍

Congrats on the yoga. Getting limber again is a massively underated survival skill. And excellent video, really cool to see the opinions of search and rescue mindset on this sort of thing.

Roy this series is brilliant! Thanks for doing it and taking us along.

Thanks Roy!

Try to get up off the ground to keep warm not just a layer but up off the ground. That was number one in the field up in ft Drum

Thank you for making fun content!

Classic paul

Nice job Roy, keep it up.

Paul Harrel is an American treasure.

Fun video! Thank you!

Great upload.

To whom ever challenged you in hopes of you failing. Roy, brag away young man, you earned it and deserve it. Glad to see and hear you excited about being successful. Keep up the good work.

Sorry. But it just ain't the same anymore 😢

It was fun to watch you do this challenge. Doing this at 20 is much different than 40 or 60... Age and physicality are huge factors in survival. Some of us aren't as nimble as we once were. I, myself, being 40 am feeling my age, but at the same time, I feel 20 in my mind. I can't get away to do this. I wish i could. I live in southwest florida, and it's hot and humid most of the year. During the winter, mid-December through mid-Febuary, we can get some chilly days and nights. 42° with 100% humidity and 20mph winds feels very cold to me now, even though I grew up in Chicago. I would love to try, but i just can't. No time, the everglades is an unforgiving place to camp. I'd need to take a real trip up north or out west to truly find wilderness large enough to really make it fun.

First let me thank you for doing the hard thing which is put yourself out there to be judged. You did a 3 day trip with minimal shelter and not much else. You learned, we learned. Thanks! Keep it up.

Yes.

Hey thanks, for keeping paul alive through the channel, your a great man, and an inspiration yourself

Good job landing the plane, Roy!

I like the format your bringing out, the testing phase was really cool to see, as an Oregonian seeing that dry sticks aren’t dry, will stick with me and hopefully save me time if I need it. Keep up the good work on your channel and yourself sir, it’s paying off for all to see.

Keep going. The key to success is constant content, people will get used to the change.
