Another great survival vid
:3
might seem pretty obvious.. but when you're cold and hungry obvious is not always enough. good vid.
thats good if you ran out of lighter fluid :)
good vid
too nice man!!
you could of just burnt the leaves without the dandelion
Also good for "flash tinder", depending on season: Nettle down (in Minnesota, August-ish), and milkweed (November-December). Cattail fluff is harder to use but might work if it gets a lot of wind.
