[@christopherstudley9374]

I think we all appreciate Felix, however, I would include (or argue, Andrew)from Ranger Survival and Fieldcraft is one of the best teachers.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot for your kind words!

[@JEEROFUKU]

Felix, it was simply awesome! 🤝

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot!

[@denisdegamon8224]

Hi Felix, I always enjoy your videos, which are full of tid bits of bushlore knowledge. To answer your question regarding why the resins are located on the thin layer around the tree is because that is the actual living growth area of the tree. That area is the circulatory area of the tree like blood vessels are to other animals. It is called the zylum and Phoalum. When a tree ages and grows they produce growth rings which are formed beneath this area. I remember this from my plant morphology science classes in college. Sorry I probably spelled that layer incorrectly.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot for your interesting comment!

Thanks for your comment

[@frederikbruck5210]

Vielen Dank für den super Trick! Schön wieder was von Dir zu sehen. Hoffentlich hast Du Deine Pause genossen und viel Zeit mit Deiner Familie verbracht. Nachträglich auch noch "Gueds Nües!" von mir. Ich denke, der Grund für die sehr dünne Harzschicht ist der Tod des Baums durch das Fällen. In den letzten "Zuckungen" presst er verzweifelt seinen letzten Rest nach oben um die "Wunde" zu schließen. Von unten wird aber nichts mehr nachgebildet, so dass der Harzfluss versiegt. Er blutet quasi aus...

[@FelixImmler]

Danke für Deinen interessanten Kommentar! LG

[@BushBear]

Hi Felix, you did not lie! 👍 This is really a method, i've never seen before, but that's absolutely amazing, genious and very cool too! A real great experience and a new "gear" for the mental "Toolbox! Thank you very much for showing this absolutely great option to find tinder! 🙏👍 Have a nice weekend! LG

[@FelixImmler]

Dein Kommentar freut mich sehr! LG

[@AnAmericanFather]

Anyone who has spent even a single season working in the wilderness knows this.. Who in the world is actually digging up tree trunks & roots? No one that I’ve ever met out there..

[@BushBear]

@@AnAmericanFather Hello, nice to meet you! ☺ (Once is allways the first time. 😉) We do so here. Because there are not only big and heavy tree trunks in our woods, but also smaller ones and also roots, that are full of resin and relatively easy to remove out of the ground. LG

[@papajeff5486]

[@ShannonRamos]

Welcome back, fantastic videos! I'm reading this interesting old book (How Indians Use Wild Plants for Food, Medicine & Crafts Frances Densmore -available on Internet Archive) and it made me think of how you are always teaching us tricks to outwit the enemies of life! "The birch and the cedar were regarded as " sacred " by the Chippewa. The two reasons for this " sacredness " are closely connected. One is the great usefulness of these trees to the Chippewa and the other is their connection with Winabojo, yet these two reasons are really one, for everything that is a benefit to the tribe is traced to Winabojo, the mythical character who, it is said, taught the Chippewa to live in their natural environment and yet, by his apparently witless actions, gave them an endless supply of humor. The amusing stories of Winabojo are told and retold by the old people around the winter fire. A misunderstanding of these humorous stories has given to some students an impression that Winabojo was a fantastic deity, but the old, thoughtful Indians understood him to be the source and impersonation of the lives of all sentient things, human, faunal, and floral. He endowed these sentient things with life, and taught to each its peculiar ruse for deceiving its enemies and prolonging its life. His "tricks" were chiefly exhibitions of his ability to outwit the enemies of life. He was thus regarded as the master of ruses, but he also possessed great wisdom in the prolonging of life. It was he who gave the Indians their best remedies for treating the sick, and who taught the animals the varied forms of protective disguise by which their lives can be extended. His own inherent life was so strong that, when apparently put to death, he reappeared in the same or a different form. This character, under slightly different names, appears in many Algonquian tribes, among the spellings of his name being Nanabush, Minabozho, and Nenabozho."
