This course was life changing. Gordon and his legendary team provide all students with knowledge and agency to plan, survive and take action - in emergencies and in dealing with the unexpected in urban life.

One of the best 4 days of my life. So glad I did this. Also - based on that video, I need to spend more time in the bush and lose some weight!

Good to see John after so long. Remember as a student in Bristol, having discussion on his research over a pint in the local pub, fascinating discussion. He has done so much more since I see, and is an expert in survival psychology.

I remember taking off from camp along a river in the south west of WA and thinking "I really should be wearing gloves" right before slipping down the bank and, without even thinking, reaching out & getting a handful of saw sedge. Made an absolute mess of my hand. I couldn't believe how unbelievably sharp it is- literally like razor blades. Take my word for it!!

Very interesting mate. I grow gahnia aspera up in Queensland but they are notoriously difficult to germinate from seed. A lot of our native plants in the garden are edible but I wasn't aware of that one! Keep up the good work 😊

How can this be used for medicinal ? Thanks

Very interesting. You could probably plant the remaining base into the soil. It may grow back..

Hi! Is it possible to do informative video's on native edible plants in Victoria? Preferably close to Gippsland or in Gippsland as there is barely any good information out there with clear video footage. Just an idea! Gippsland was a swamp originally, I feel like there are things here that should be mentioned. Like the Bush tomato and when you should eat it because it is poisonous if you don't eat it when its fully ripened.

Love the local Australian content

Thanks mate 🤙

Thanks Gordon! 🥰

I remember when I was in scouts we did a canoe trip down the Murray River and I went to climb up a small bank and there was some of these (not sure if they were the exact one or just the same species) but I slipped and instinctively grabbed a handful of this to stop my slide but ended up cutting my hand up. I learnt a valuable lesson that day.

Thanks, 70 here, I've been trying many edible weeds in outback qld over years. We may well need them to survive in the near future. Prickly pear bush is a fave which i try often. Highly nutritious and full of antioxidants.

What types can you eat down in Tassy?

thanks for helping me mate

Just finished his course and this guy is one impressive guy - the real deal!

Just finished his course and this guy is one impressive guy - the real deal!

always carry a piece of paper and a texta for when i get lost I use a shaddow stick

And this helps you, how?

Correction: how to draw a compass.

Why can’t you burry the paper?

👏👏👏👏👍👍

Hold up dude!! You sound Australian, I’m in North America… does you being in the southern hemisphere mean I would do it the opposite way? Or would just the shadow move the opposite direction? Or would the north be south?

But what time of the day do you do this?

"Wait 20 mins" NP I'll just use my watch.

So when you say the first Stick is your Westerly Marker ? How do you know that was west if you dont know the orientation ? or making this first stick the Western Marker the rule no matter what ?

I wanted to test this to see if it's the opposite in the northern hemisphere, but there are no shadows because it's October in Scotland and the sky is a flat grey 😂

seen sooo many disregarding th8s, if that artery is completely severed you have at best 15 seconds consciousness and death within 40 seconds

Excellent info

Great seeing clear info like this for the Southern hemisphere

That bull ant wanted a piece of you mate... 😬

If you want to use the fire roll method for making a fire, you really would like to find some ash that hasn't been rendered useless for the purpose by people doing this. I think that the only time I would do this is when I'd camped somewhere I shouldn't have,or I was in the military and didn't want the enemy to find me.

This is awesome

Ive done this course a few times and i recommend it to everyone, gordon and the team are fantastic people and very knowledgeable. Good skills that last a lifetime 😁

Acing it Gordo'!... The phosphorus is unbound in the combustion process, but all that in one concentrated spot is no good for even phosphorus loving plants. Australias flora is predominantly low phosphorus requirement. So, spreading the ash around is the best thing you can do for the native flora of Australia. Unless you want to make soap, but then you're not going to leave the ash anyway. Cheers Gordo'. Looking forward to the next installment. 💜👍 Universal Sovereign Citizen

I always try to make every campsite look like I was never there. I've come across so many fire pits on my hikes that look like a Viking battalion camped there it's not funny.

A round bush hat would market you better and suit your face better than the baseball ball cap. You're channel's legit.

I really admire the art work of your patch. The man wearing a bush hat making a friction fire.

Nice one . looks like a great course

Gordon is the bushmaster. I grew up watching les hiddins (the bush tucker man) and when it stopped i lost a favorite. Until i discovered Gordy. Aussies have a certain way of explaining, they make knowledge that may have taken years to aquire sound like common sense. Its a real pleasure to be around. Mr Dedman thankyou sir.

Why isn't anyone mentioning the price? I was Soo keen to book until I saw on his website how expensive the courses are 💔😌

I’m here in the United States, and you make it extremely appealing to be out over there. Love your training videos.

Do you do any in WA?

This course was the best. Gordo will go down as a legend for the work he has put into educating us about bushcraft, survival and the Aussie bush.

Looks like a great course gordo ! Hey gordan have you seen water filtering through branches ? I saw a bloke in the US doing tests on it , seemed to work quite well

Such an incredible course !!! So much more than I imagined. Thanks Gordo and the whole team - you're all amazing !!

highly recommend this course

You forgot the notch 🇨🇦
