Excellent video. As a former FMF Corpsman, I always made sure all the Marines in my squad had at least 2 triangular bandages on them prior to deployment, they truely are one of the most versatile pieces of first aid equipment ever made.

I had an assistant scoutmaster who told us to always keep cotton gauze in our 1st aid kits because the material that triangular bandages are made of doesn't soak loose like cotton does. He got injured one time working construction and got wrapped up with a triangular bandage - when they got him to the hospital they had to rip off the bandage because they couldn't soak it off. If you have a different material than he did you're set, but make sure you account for that when using these to bandage bleeding wounds.

I bought this premade kit which had "everything" in it, but when i checked it much of the stuff was out of date by two years (eyewash, grape sugar for insulin chock, expiration of sterilisation date etc) so i'm going through it and getting new stuff. Just a warning to those of you who buy these premade kits and think that they have no expiry date. At least it had a triangular bandage... Great videos btw, especially with time indexes.

Things with the triangular bandages. Its true its been a long time we used this 'technique' on the battlefield, but at first it was just about taking any piece of somewhat square fabric and folding it in two... Its super easy to 'make' a triangular bandage, and they were just invented from that technique.

If you don't have a safety pin for your sling, you can tie a knot in the point of the triangle. Not as secure, but hey we drop stuff in grass during the heat of the moment and you can't lose a knot.

Awesome video. I really like this style of video. Keep up the great content! (Also Vlad's expressions were priceless). I had a question for ya if you don't mind answering and if you have the spare time: I haven't been able to get out and go hiking for a long time. My gear is from when i was much younger so it's probably 7 years old. The gear still fits me - except the pack. So for example, my sleeping bag is still in PERFECT condition. It's been compressed for 7 years by being in a big plastic bin, but it's still got plenty of loft to it. It's sythentic. Long list short- I have gear that is in great condition but just is very bulky compared to today's standards. I'm a long weekend hiker so maybe 2-3 days and was thinking of buying a bigger pack, but one of higher quality, to accommodate my bigger gear. Or go "half and half" and buy a lesser quality pack with lesser quality gear. What would you do? Thanks, Eugene. If you can't get to it, it's no problem. God bless.
@ReviewOutdoorGear8 жыл бұрын
+Matthew Risley If you're going for quality, you can't go wrong with Osprey. Buying a pack from them is basically buying a pack for life unless you lose it. Some other great companies are Deuter, North Face, REI... REI are usually the best value. You can go for some lesser quality ones like High Sierra or something of that range if you're looking to save some money. From my experience though, getting a good quality one is worth it.

Can't thank you enough! Thanks for the speedy reply. I was thinking of the Osprey Atmos that you had reviewed earlier, looks like a great pack. Keep up the good stuff, brother.

Cheers for the infomation, however, how do you apply to a chest, abdom or back wounds. Or is it not possible with triangle bandages?
@RubleInnawoods5 жыл бұрын
Denas K you don’t want to use a triangle bandage on a chest or upper back wound, if it’s a gunshot/stab wound ie a sucking chest wound. Triangle bandages are breathable, they won’t work for that. Also in the lower abdomen/ crotch/ shoulders, for deep lacerations and such they won’t work well for wound packing either, aren’t absorbent. If the wound is a slash or something surface, it’s easier just to use a roller bandage+ gauze or Israeli bandage.

These aren’t sterile, so you wouldn’t want to use them directly on a wound if you have sterile material available. In a pinch it is better than nothing, though.
