The knowledge on which the skills are based, combined with a didactic sense of method and concise and essential explanations, make this video a summary of everything you need to know to make a primitive fire; years I see videos on the subject and it is the most complete. Certainly the skills in archelogy and teaching were the two udders of this transmission of knowledge. Congratulations

If this guy had a TV show I'd watch every episode.

There's a lot more about starting a fire than we would normally believe.
That's why so many people fail at it.

Engineers are often really “creative “ and redneck. But a “primitive technology engineer “ seems to me the saint graal of engineering

How did cavemen figure this out?

Dude bought his spindle frome hobby lobby.

Bic lighter. Welcome.

Oh yeah, I’d be dead

I tried a hand drill and i made smoke but i couldt mske it into fire...

Imagine being a caveman trying this in the icey cold and then getting fire after rubbing your hands raw

Stock up on lighters.

I wonder what is the temperature of that wood dust.

Step 1, make a sharp edge by smashing 2 rocks together in your bare hands.
Step 2, discover something to use as a primitive bandage.

Bro this is not a Rocket Science, you need to make it sample 😂😂😂

The very good thing here is: it’s not like in other videos where after 2 minutes there is a fire. Here you see how much effort goes into it.

This is what we need to be teaching our babies in school. This is life.

Painstaking creation.

The Earth provides everything you need. Including people.

In normal situation you just put a flat wood piece one under this firewood and spin drill inside so you dont need to move it

You don't have a fire until the wood starts crackling.
