Aussie Survival Challenge- NO FOOD, WATER or SHELTER (Exciting Announcement!)

24hr solo survival on the Australian coast with no food, water or shelter and just minimal gear. I take a look at the bush tucker (edible plants) in the area and try my best to find fresh water (which was a challenge). Also, I finally share some exciting news! Enjoy :)

G'day legends, sorry it's been so long since my last upload. Hope you enjoy this little 'survival' challenge and I'm really stoked that I can finally share some exciting news with you all. Thanks for watching and for your support. Cheers

[@fayleya3865]

Such great news! Kids provide the biggest highs and lows of your life! Congratulations to you both and I hope Laura has a healthy and comfortable pregnancy xx

[@paulagnew4664]

You are already a hero of a father!!! Lucky young man coming to the lucky country!!! Persistence always counts. And you are all its meaning!!! Bloody good job all round!!!

[@austenparker9210]

Finally, a new video!!! Thanks great job and keep up the hard work

Any chance of calling your son Steve

Congratulations Scotty! So happy for you and your wife! Best wishes for your family

[@aussiesawake1037]

Our congratulations to you and Laura; you'll be a fabulous Dad. So happy for you both.

[@benking2271]

Bloody stoked for you both! As a father to an 8yo boy, I can tell you that just doing stuff with your son is simply the best thing in the world!!

[@Neile-13579]

Congratulations Scotty and Laura that's wonderful news. As others have said you will make a great dad Scotty. 😉

[@thegingerpowerranger]

Congratulations on the baby. Try and sneak your extended challenge in before the baby arrives because once it is here your focuses are definitely going to change. It's fantastic being a dad - one of the best things that life has given me.

[@user-ub1wg5hh3d]

youre going to make an awesome dad Scotty. my grandkids will be watching your sons videos!! Blessings be upon your family.

[@Blashswanski]

Congrats, Scotty. Becoming a father was the best thing I've ever done, hands down. They drive me up the wall sometimes, but so good... So much joy.

[@mariestokie6122]

I’m so happy for you! We went through multiple miscarriages too, and it is so rough. Now that our family’s complete I can put in in perspective to say, “That’s what we had to go through to get our family” and it is so worth it, but terribly rough going all the same. Sending wishes for a strong and healthy little man and a safe pregnancy for Laura

[@jesswilson366]

Congratulations! so happy for you, a little boy to nurture and guide.

[@darrellraimey7571]

Being a dad is the best of all I raised my two kids on my own an loved every minute of it an know I'm a grandpa it just keeps getting better take care Scotty an mom lol

[@thesewildtimes]

When you're doing the plastic bag technique, you need to tie off a corner underneath to act as a reservoir for the water to funnel down into. I use an elastic band over the bottom corner, and usually get about 500ml of water after 3-4 hours of perspiration.

[@kenwilson3549]

Congratulations Scotty and Laura. Wonderful news about expecting a son, its a new amazing season of life, with ups and downs but children are a gift from above. You'll make an amazing Dad and husband.

[@cliverobbo]

Hey Scotty, we went through the same IVF thing. We understand what you were saying in this video and you are a champ for sharing that. We wish you the very best for your family. If you need to take a break from the fantastic content that you make, you do that. All the best. Clive & Christina, WA

[@phillee2814]

Congratulations to you and your wife! We had a long wait as well, and after the length of time that you have to be merely active and hopeful, we were referred to a fertility clinic and then had to wait as we gradually climbed the waiting list until an appointment came through for the following year - and then discovered nature had beaten the clinic to it. We Phoned and cancelled after three months, to be sure, as it was no longer necessary. We now have four, which is quite enough. I bet you can hardly wait for the little fella to be coming on trips with you and learning the right way to interact with nature. It goes by in a flash and before you know it, they are leaving home, so treasure all those moments, and never miss out on chances to spend time with him (and who knows, maybe them?), even if it does mean cutting down on the videos for a few years. Just make sure that you leave a message for your followers if another format or provider becomes more attractive than KZbin during your minimalist posting time, which is fast approaching.

[@jeanie7369]

So happy for you both…..Congratulations , I think you’ll be such a wonderful Dad. Look forward to your next adventure. ❤

[@ThatAussieSheila]

Congratulation Scotty. You, Laura and banjo are already a beautiful family, your son is very lucky 💜 And good on you for sharing, I know it’s hard for Aussie blokes to talk about emotions. Well done for breaking the mould. You’re an inspiration and the reason I’m out in the bush getting my own therapy. Thank you 🙏

[@williamthegriffin6185]

Just told my misses lastnight 'Scotty hasn't posted in a bit'. Good seeing you! Congratulations on a SON! William 😅 is a great name. Joy to you and Laura!

[@aliharris2408]

Congratulations on a brother for Bango. My son was literally jumping up and down with excitement when you made your announcement. Especially loved the bush tucker, cant wait to explore the bush on our next adventure

[@vickizacharia]

Awesome news Scotty. You had me tearing up. I'm so happy for you guys. Thank you for sharing your struggles. Thank you for the bushcraft and bush tucker info. As much as we love your adventures, don't feel pressure to keep up the hectic schedule once bub arrives. Laura needs you too and the time will fly. Enjoy your new adventure of being a dad. Somebody has to change those nappies.....and you thought that swamp water had a stench 😆. Great video Scotty 😊

[@timmcpherson9384]

Gotta admit as a father of 3 I must’ve been cutting some onions when he talked about it…😊

[@chrism7034]

Congrats on the baby news mate! Me and the Mrs went through a similar thing and it can be tough, but you guys will be better parents because of what you’ve had to go through. Thanks for sharing your story!

[@peyotephoenix5882]

Scotty there's plenty of water in the lake lol. Light a fire and evaporate some lake water and set up a solar still. Also moving around in the heat of the day you sweat out precious water....just saying. Collect dew of plants in the morning before the sun hits. I've had to do these things in country with no water and it works. Congrats to you and you're wife 👍🏾 Been a fan of your channel for years. Keep up the good work mate

[@blockchain_proponentm.9977]

Congrats on the news Scotty and Laura. My wife use to always called the deed, "make love". (She was Chinese, sadly not with us anymore) It sure worked out that way for us and we weren't even trying, we just knew we wanted a bub. Guess we were just lucky in some respects. Sharing your passion with him is going to be so rewarding! Ps. The laundry tub makes a great bath tub to save your back!. Lol.

[@LittleLeafyLifeBrisbane]

Great video, thoroughly enjoyed this! Back with a bang! Thanks for being so open and vulnerable too, I think it’s fantastic that you shared this and will surely help other blokes going through similar. Congrats again on Baby Walkabouts!

[@mj2745]

Congratulations Laura and Scott! A little Scotty! So many times I have known this to happen, failed IVF trials and much heart ache only to end up falling the natural way. Such beautiful news and the emotion you are feeling over it all, very evident. A beautiful thing. You'll make a great dad and what a fun life this kid is going to have!

[@Formula_Done]

Comming out of hiding to say thankyou for being open about IVF, mental and physical health. So important to share not only pur success, but also our way of dealing with extreme lows. I wish yourself and your partner and your baby all the good health..

[@user-qi9wo3sq2j]

Congratulations to You and Laura on your good news of the pregnancy and you both looking forward to becoming parents. Wishing you both all the best from Lyal and Deborah.😊😊

[@rosemaryshepherdsmith5110]

Congratulations to you both, the more natural products you use across the board is best and nature's a great healer. All the best Scotty.😊

[@Ade4fish]

Mullet. Make some damper. Toast it well. Toss it in the water. Make a tiny fly with a tuft of white rabbit hair and a little piece of sponge.- the sponge will help it float . The fly will look like a small piece of toast. When the mullet start nibbling the toast (which should be floating) cast your little fly right next to it. Maybe one in 20 takes you will hook one :) Great video. I greatly enjoyed it. Congrats on the news. Ade

[@ZaneTaylorMusic]

His question was how to not use bread though

[@Ade4fish]

@@ZaneTaylorMusic Yes Zane . We know that. Take a bow of being clever. I was was not suggesting using bread as hook-bait. That subtlety must have passed you by. I must be sad as you are for replying . There is one in every village. Hey ho.

[@ZaneTaylorMusic]

@@Ade4fishyou're still using bread though??????

[@Dave-ss5pk]

CONGRATULATIONS SCOTT and WIFE...👍🍻...once he she is born...life will be hard at first but the JOY you will experience will be UNFORGETTABLE and MEANINGFUL. GOD BLESS YOU AND FAMILY Mate.🙏

[@mattyallred]

Using a bag on gum tree is awesome, you get some eucalyptus flavour and health benefits, Kind of like a cup of tea. Like when you boil pine needles in water to make a tea.

[@belyndagoddard104]

Biggest congratulations to you both, you will be amazing parents. Thanks for the great vid. Hi 👋 to Banjo too. Hubby and I were saying we hadn’t seen any vids in a while. Then we said, bet there’s a bubba coming 😊. Thanks for opening up mate.

As someone currently going through issues (male factor) with conceiving, you have my heartfelt congratulations. I am sure you will be an excellent father.

Good on you, Scotty. Wife and I went down the IVF route about 5-6 times and it's a tough road. Mental health is critically important in being able to support others, mate. Take care of yourself so you can all take care of each other. Speaking openly about our challenges is important to help others know its nothing to be ashamed about. Good on you, bud.

Congratulations to you and Laura on the little adventure buddy that arrives this summer! It will be great to see you guys evolve too in your reportage and how you do your adventures with a little one.

[@Evolution20v]

Damn I missed your videos, thought about write you, I got a little bit worried. Huge congratulations! Becoming a dad are the absolute best thing you ever will experience. It will totally change you and the way you think. My daughter drives me crazy and I want to go far far away, but minutes after, I can't stop loving her, haha. I actually got an depression or stress after she was born, it jump started my interest for fishing. Get out in nature really help and your videos really inspire, even your nature are totally different. I live in Denmark, the other side of the globe. You may heard about it, as our new Queen are from Tazmania. Anyway, I hope you will continue making videos, but I think everyone will understand you will get less time in the next couple of years.

[@danecollins22]

[@serenepeacefulrelaxingmusi3874]

Congratulations Scotty and Laura! 😀 How exciting to know that your little boy is on his way. This is a whole new chapter of your life together and it will bring so much happiness just watching him reach his milestones and learning all the wonderful things you both can teach him. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. I must admit I was quite concerned about your lack of water there until you reached the spring at the rock ledge. It must have been like an oasis for you. That was an interesting little bit of information about the eucalyptus "tea" making the rocky spring water more tasty. All the best to you and your family.

[@leonwakefield7285]
