Survival Bag

In this episode we look at the many and varied uses of a large heavy duty, non pleated plastic bag. Uses are only limited by your imagination but some one of the many uses we look at include: a shelter, moisture barrier, water carriage, water proofing, flotation device, container, cordage, stretcher, mattress, raincoat etc.
Hope you enjoy the episode and thanks for watching.

g’day Gordon!.., i have watched yourself, Dave Canterbury and Shawn Kelly use these types of bags and i believe the only thing i could find that comes close, or might be acceptable, is the ‘Grunt’ brand 158L Extra Large Heavy Duty Clean Up Bags from Bunnings.., they are non pleated and seem to be very similar to what has been shown elsewhere!.., hope this helps!.., great video, thanks for sharing your bush wisdom!... 👍🏻

[@greenmansurvival4832]

Very interesting, especially the rock boiling. The sheer bloody effort that went into making this is huge. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@alanrice39]

That’s a great bag. You used knots I’ve not seen before. Thanks for this video.

[@davef5916]

Always happy to see a new video from Gordo! Those leaches look savage. Great piece of kit, glad I have one in mine. Great to see all the uses explained so clearly, makes a good pack liner too.

[@Borealwalkabouts]

Thanks Gordo. Really appreciate it as always Mr Dedman. A well of knowledge. In Sweden all garbage bags are like them and not the Australian type, luckily. I'll put one of them in my pack immediately. Would ofc have bought one from you if I could have

[@ausstraya9120]

Fantastic information and very inspiring stuff. Thanks heaps.

[@FnVRGaming]

Bloody awesome Gordon 🙌

[@alexreddington8239]

Glad Tuff Stuff 55 litre garbage bags aren’t pleated. I bought them from Winc stationary online from Australia

[@BushcraftSurvivalAustralia]

That's good to know., are they heavy duty. Thanks for watching.

[@ryburn83]

absolutely awesome

[@jdee4462]

Hey mate, loving the videos and would really like to get into bushcraft. I live in Queensland and just don’t understand how anybody without a property can practice it. Its illegal to camp outside of a campsite and make a fire/use sticks outside of designated fire areas. What would you suggest?

[@delishme2]

Glad make non pleated, i think only the corners ?? and they are stronger too. They come in a box with two rolls. Not as good as yours, but may be used in a pinch.

[@cjrobinson9926]

Will your survival bags be available to buy to the public ?

[@BushcraftSurvivalAustralia]

Hi CJ. We've added a link in the video description now so that you can purchase them.

[@dragonslayer8812]

Try Coles i think they sell the ones you may be after.

[@Tootoo4luv]

You me.tioned in the video that you can purchase the bags on your online shop. But all I can see are the t shirts and bandanas. Am I looking in the wrong place? Great vid btw!!!

[@alimfuzzy]

Great vid. How long do you precut your cordage for each of the corners of the lean to?

[@duckman12569]

It's surprising that, as stated, the plastic doesn't get holes in it from the hotrocks

[@natedring2312]

I’m sure you can get them off the Internet probably everything is sold on the Internet these days
