The two hunters said the craft was rectangular in form, about the size of a utility shed. They saw a vaguely huminoid figure, ( it was too dark to see details ) then turned and ran to their truck, and drove to the police station. They both agree the craft was silent except for a whispery rustling noise, and the smell of burned wood from its landing was still very noticable.

[@gen81465]

Quoting Wikipedia, "In 1971 it became illegal to import haggis into the US from the UK due to a ban on food containing sheep lung, which constitutes 10-15% of the traditional recipe. The ban encompasses all lungs, as fluids such as stomach acid and phlegm may enter the lung during slaughter." There are variations on haggis that can be imported, but personally, I can make meatloaf taste the same, if properly spiced.

[@zl14l41]

You uh....want to elaborate on that meatloaf spice? For research purposes!

[@ricktalbott9611]

I live in PA in the USA and we have a dish called pigs stomach. It's made with ground meat, onions, carrots and other stuffand put in a cleaned pigs stomach and baked. Would this be like haggis?

[@Scotland_my]

@@ricktalbott9611 I think most places have something comparable to haggis and that sounds like a contender. Haggis is traditionally from sheep but adding beef suet and using ox bungs to cook it in is very common now. The pig version sounds awesome. 👍

[@Bedwyr7]

Just need some Irn Bru and you’re set.

[@ThomasGrillo]

So, that's what haggis is, tatties, and neepss are. Learned something new, this vid. By the way, the reason lungs from beef, and pork are illegal, state-side, is the potential for exposure to TB. I'm not sure if lung from goat is also illegal, or not. Goats are immune to TB, or at least highly resistant to it. I think I'd have used a cot to get up off the ground, but you seemed to do just fine, anyway. Another way to improve insulation would be to setup an inner layer of foil blankets, about an inch or two from the outer layer. This traps a layer of air in between, and that has R value. The additional blanket layer adds yet another R value. Thanks for the video. :)

[@lonewolfwarrior69]

Seeing that post hole digger brought back memories of my youth while living on our family farm in Southwestern Pennsylvania, USA. (I live in the UK now, since May 6, 2003) I became familiar with the use of it when I was as young as 12 when my Dad (❤️ R.I.P.) decided to install electrified fencing around our 50 hectares to keep the cattle from escaping. It was hard work using that post hole digger which left my hands with callouses but after seeing the last fence post go in I felt elated and from that day on had a sense of adult responsibility which made me feel more mature about myself. 👍🙂

[@Ebola419]

In the future, before you put things inside a shelter you can also sweep the leafs on the ground on the inside up against the wall to provide added insulation. Combo that with what you did on the outside and it should work for a night or two

[@mehmetcakoglu866]

I think you should isolate the bottom zone. Thus, the heat generated inside would be reflected from the blankets and warm you much better. But I think you couldn't make a comfortable camp because of the cold coming from outside because you didn't insulate the bottom well. It was still a good adventure, I hope you enjoy it a lot. 👍 Cheers from Turkey 🎉🎊😄

[@karenneill9109]

It was a very creative shelter, but having the mylar wrap under the edges would help a lot! All that heat up top isn’t helpful if the ground is cold, it will only raw more cold air in.

[@nelliemelba4967]

[@mikemoore4033]

I lived in various parts of Scotland for over sixteen years (Aberdeen, Dundee,Ullapool,Edinburgh) and have been back on Merseyside for over twenty years; one thing I miss is a Haggis supper, which you can’t get down here. Not the finest Haggis you’ll ever eat, but on cold night (not uncommon in Scotland) on the wobbly way home from the pub, hard to beat.

[@gailknowles3804]

I like that shelter. If you had to have an emergency shelter and you had a thousand blankets and some super duper tape, I can see this happening. Now, regarding that Haggis...um...I don't think so. I'm in the US so I guess it's illegal here. Oh, what a shame! Oh well, more for you. I could manage the Twix and tea, if it's iced. I'm in the South so it's sweet, iced tea here. You are right about tea keeping things more civilized. Love your channel!

[@Databhoy]

Brilliant stuff - fully haggised-up Scotsman here. I was thinking - could you have added an extra layer of the sheets which were about 2 feet beyond the bottom of the structure - like a skirt (or kilt😂) and put the logs on top of the overhanging bits thus completely sealing the ground level?

[@chillanvillain]

[@jamesellsworth9673]

Perhaps the best feature of the shelter was the way it gave you new ways to film light. You also captured some very sculptural wood and fungus. It would have taken more 'Neck Oil' for me to slide that haggis down my gullet.😉 I have been speculating on ways to 'improve' the shelter design. One way might be to de-stub some poles and wrap some part of the emergency panels around them to secure a base along most of the (uneven) ground. A raised bed would get you off the ground and out of the draft. Making a smaller shelter would be on my agenda! One of the useful parts about videos like yours is how they get the minds of viewers working in reaction to your experiences.

I know it's a test, but the cardboard shelter, with the tarp over top and these on the interior walls and roof would probably be very comfortable. I was at a "drive in" movie with my son at his elementary school, they would show movies on the basketball courts outside during the evening on a inflatable screen. The families would sit in camping chairs and the kids could make cars out of cardboard boxes. Along with my son, his mom and her fiance were there. Our son was cold so I got an emergency blanket out of my trunk. She asked me why I was wrapping him up like a burrito. Lol

cardboard is severly underrated, when my brother got divorced in late October he had nowhere else to go so the first night he slept on our couch but the next day cleaned out my 10x12 shed and went and got a couple rolls of insulation and enough cardboard sheets from a big box store as we get to make makeshift walls over the insulation until winter was over and it worked fine for him 4 months until spring when we could rip off one of the sides to extend it to build him a little kitchenette in it so all he had to come inside for was to use the bathroom and shower and then we dry walled and painted it, he had a cool little "bachelor pad" for a couple years so he could save up money to get him a place. I use it as a mancave/outside bar now.
