Have any equipment failure stories? What broke and how did you solve the problem?

[@anthonysharp9136]

First night I tried a cheap poorly designed hammock with the integrated bug net I woke up sideways touching the ground with a wet butt. Thankfully I was with friends so I spent the next night in their tent, but had I been alone, a single stick tied to it would at least make it a bivy bag to keep bugs out.

[@BourneOutside]

100% in agreement regarding a shame that some folks didn’t get shown “the way” by their fathers or grandparents.

[@unfi6798]

Quick & easy fix, we like it mate. Tree huggers lives in the city. Animal lovers are either vegan or vegetarian and in between you get the ones whom never been in the bush, don't know how to dispatch & clean what is caught respectfully. It takes all kind & it's all good. We live in a wonderful world. Lets start living..!! Cheers Mr. Salyer from Australia.

[@outdoorkids6062]

Welcome to Georgia-the ground is wet, it’s hot and humid, there’s bugs on your face. Nice job dad

[@JAEUFM]

I find it strange that so many people seem averse to taking the time to construct some sort of elevated sleep platform. Some extra time to keep from sleeping in a puddle, or running water during heavy rain is a positive use of time to me.

[@Markus_321go]

Great video. People need to get outside and do the things. Great if your vids can motivate and teach them about responsible stewardship of natural resources.👍🏻

[@user-bh3ew6ii4g]

I like these primitive/limited gear videos, because I love creative problem solving. Those 6mil contractor bags will definitely work, I have seen them hold the weight of much heavier guys than Jason. In the videos I saw they used 2, sliding the open end of the bag over the long side poles from each side.If your side poles are not very far apart, as in this video you may have to do it a bit differently.

[@lewisvillalta2492]

You are a very concerned person and takes extra steps to do things right but sometimes things happen that in splits second and you can control yourself or the situation thank you very much Jason as always on 3 my friend stay safe out there God bless you always

[@Markus_321go]

Spending time in nature and doing the things there, humbles you and boosts your confidence at the same time.

[@ArmstrongSurvival]

I love it when the wilderness supply’s coffee beans! 😉 I’m one of those that still doesn’t have a silky saw. I already have a Boreal21 saw and love it so I haven’t had the need to spend money on a silky.

[@billvan5219]

When people say don't cut down trees😢 I ask them what their house is built of😅. Those poor trees

[@dudleydidright3254]

Thanks for practicing coppicing in your woodland. This traditional practice strengthens the remaining trunks on the root system, and produces a sustainable source of wood. Good job!

[@naturewithandy7204]

Net hammocks are great I make my own from bank line. They’re strong easy to repair and you can also use them for fishing and traps!

[@nickmartino2839]

First off!!! I'm all for every tree to grow happily on the planet!!! But also.... what alot of ppl don't seem to realize is that thinning your woods even young healthy trees is a great thing for most woods!!! It allows crucial light down into the woods where it typically wouldn't be because of over growth!!!! So when properly educated...taking young or healthy trees is not a bad thing at all!!! In fact it's a good thing for the entire woods!!!!! It allows for other types of vegetation +

[@SurvivalDispatch]

That’s right

[@joegreen925]

So, you "pity the fool" ? Me too Clubber, me too.😂

[@nickmartino2839]

God bless you Jason!!!!!!!

[@jasongarling20]

I got a couple examples to answer your questions about military poncho hammocks. First, Andrew from ranger survival and field craft has a video on how to tie it all together without tearing it up. And Shawn from Corporals Corner has a million videos on shelters and has a few with that also. It's all in making the gooseneck and folding and frapping them correctly.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Nice!

[@FueltheFires]

Love my BigBoy! I thought I was the only one to use the compression strap trick lol.. Great video idea 👊🏻

[@davidchester429]

For a pillow, I just use spare clothes in the dry bag from my sleeping bag now. Saves carrying anything else. It's also pretty much indestructible

[@brynnleapierce5600]

👌👌👌👌 thank you I love all your videos. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@SurvivalDispatch]

You are so welcome! Thanks

[@clif4rd1]

Thank you for sharing more great tips.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

You are so welcome!

[@migueltorres8925]

Excellent

[@davidchester429]

If you are worried about the work from splitting the cross supports, find a bunch of long branches, take them to 2 trees close by and snap them using the leverage created from the trees. Any that you mess up you can burn anyway

[@barmstrong25]

The hunters and fishermen are the best conservationists. The fees we pay in taxes support wildlife.

[@user-McGiver]

and we're really in touch with Nature... not like those cityfolks with their big ideas from their living rooms...

[@Medicmike911]

I haven't done it myself but I have seen a poncho hammock done on either corporal corner or ranger survival and field craft. But I like your idea too

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Well I guess we need to try it!

[@matthewmchenry9331]

Corporal's Corner loves doing the stretcher style bed like this video with trash bags too. Although, he usually goes through a couple hundred feet of cordage setting one up. Wonder what he would say about this video.

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

Looks mighty comfy to me.

[@tomritter493]

Ya I have done the poncho hammock your probably OK I was 6.1 218 it didn't go so well we had the heavy green rubberized ones tore a gromet out head first on the ground and lits of guys went down it was a trainifg exercise lol

[@sbkiel4077]

amazing video jason

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks!!

[@woodstrekker6345]

I made a similar cot but used a sheet and tied the corners in knots underneath.

[@rodneymiddleton1044]

Great video Jason cheers mate & stay safe and alert.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks, you too!

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

Grown children of AA parents Thx Jason. Very smart

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

Ha. No wild chocolates

[@sajahb7444]

This is pretty neat. I’ll have to try this

[@brynnleapierce5600]

Live here in the North Alabama area here it is hot hot hot so I'd rather be “off the ground!!!! Silky saws are great❕❕❕❕❕

[@jasongarling20]

I have a wood stretcher! And lucky for you it's on sale today for 1million dollars! For you only,today only! Lol!

[@aaronbeach8929]

Great video j3 respect from 🇬🇧👍😎💪🌱🌳

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Much appreciated

[@romeur8709]

Esse é o tipo de video que eu gosto.

[@kurtbaier6122]

Liking the tips thanks. Yes I have used the poncho as a hammock but it’s a bit short. And no the the knot I used on each end did not damage it. But what we often used to do in the BSA in the 1960s and 70s was to make an improvised stretcher with two poles and a sheet or blanket depending on the season to get us up off of the ground. Or a piece of canvas sewn into a sleeve to slip the poles through.

[@eternalvitality]

TY for your content!

[@metaltextile5471]

Nice!

[@jeffechols5302]

See ya on the next one

[@EdwinDekker71]

Good video👍👍👍

[@elevatorman7750]

Great video brother. Growing up we made our own camps and huts. Well into my teens. Never had the cool guy things of today.

[@jasongarling20]

Great video

[@matthewmchenry9331]

You destroyed a spider's web! They spent all morning building that and now it's gone forever.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

I will lose sleep tonight.

[@yellowdog762jb]

This is very nit picky, but as someone who has fruit trees and prunes them frequently, cutting the trunk at a slight angle so water runs off it was a good move. I couldn't really see how low you cut it, so I'm not saying that you did it wrong. I'm just commenting here for others that don't know how to cut a branch off of a tree in a manner that doesn’t harm it. When possible, try to cut branches and trunks at the outer part of the transition point between the trunk and the branch. It's called The Collar. That gives the tree the best opportunity to heal over the cut while not leaving too much sticking out that will eventually rot. So, USUALLY you don't want to cut a branching trunk or an actual branch exactly flush, which is sort of counter intuitive; and you don't want to leave a long piece either. I use your Tree Vise all the time! Most of the time I'll use two trees to break large dead fallen branches. I used to put one end of a long branch on a log or something, and then stomp on it to break the branch. However, that does tire out your feet some, but it also flips part of the branch towards your face. Now I try to break larger ones using two nearby trees, and I only break branches that break easily from my weight. Breacking moderate sized branches with trees and leverage uses a lot less energy than chopping or sawing. And I feel it's safer as well. I like your raised platform. We have lots of creepy crawlers that bite and sting in my area. If weight isn't too much of an issue, some compound-action-by-pass-pruners can make fast work of most wood that is 1.5 inches (maybe 1.75 inches) or less in diameter. It depends on the wood also. Cut trees with single trunks off very, very low to the ground, and not at an angle. If you leave 2 or 3 inches sticking up that is dangerous if someone trips, and it can also puncture vehile tires.

[@lukewarm2075]

Im binge watching Jason Salyer, where is wally aka Alan i miss him is he doing KZbin

[@davidchester429]

Don't worry about people worrying about you killing trees. Anyone who has any gardening knowledge knows that you have to work pretty hard to kill the tree. 9/10 the roots grow back and if you do any tree cutting in winter it will essentially be doing it a favour. It's known as coppicing and the tree will grow back far more. Within a few years you'll see several stems growing from the same base

[@SurvivalDispatch]

That’s right. Thanks for watching

[@blueridgerealtor]

Why didn’t you make a queen size bed so I could snuggle with you?❤😂

[@ronaldmclaughlin255]

Two heavy contractor bags will hold a large man and weigh nothing the open ends overlap to the inside I always carry three with a poncho your covered . I myself am now older and want more but you can get away with less.

[@eternaladventure-wm5fn]

Trash bags will work as long as they are the heavy duty contractor bags.

[@JO-rk5gu]

Great content sir! Where can I get the survival shoes you're wearing :)

[@Honkerdown]

Can you show some details on how you have your tool attached to your pack?

[@jakeells66]

Yo forest chocolate!? Thanks for the tip I gotta try that!

[@SurvivalDispatch]

It's so good!

[@carrolljoey9704]

I've been subscribed to the channel for a little bit I started watching a couple of days ago Could you point out a couple of videos that you guys do For long-term survival skills The truth and matter is When the defecation hits the oscillation Nothing is gonna be brought back online very quickly that is public access Could you point out a couple of videos that you guys do for long-term survival skills Most of stuff you taken in the woods Is on the last year maybe a couple of months maybe a year at the very most Do you realize if we go to nuclear warfare It's gonna be several years before we get things back online Even imagine shaking a slingshot in the woods has man made material on it Do you know how long elastics actually lashes in the environment Maybe a couple of weeks of use Then elastic starts breaking down Are any other material

[@skifskifsky3739]

Educational video. A gun in a holster on a backpack and on a tree? I get nervous when the gun is more than my arm's length away.

Lol. Thanks.

[@martinl3613]

You made my day with the comment about me and my comment about the fish flopping around. Sorry bud you are wrong I go probably more fishing then 90% of other people watching these channel. You can be sure he teaches me the respect for our Natur and there animal. So please stop looking for an excuse when YOU made a mistake even if you see it different it’s in my eyes not the right way. Making it ridiculous by saying I was never fishing or hunting and have basically no clue doesn’t make it better. It’s just disrespectful towards your follower who I would say told you in a respectful way that he seemed it’s not the proper way.

[@markw.3743]

If you don’t like seeing fish being caught handled or eaten then why are you watching outdoor survival videos !? 🤔
