    Everyone needs to calm down with these vids. He isn’t Les Stroud. He is giving some basic tips for non-hikers; not for experts.

    Sorry but I have to correct your spelling: “thats common SENSE.”

    As one of my teachers once said, choose a word you cannot spell correctly and learn it. At least you will improve your spelling by ONE word!

    “Expert village” lol :-P you keep matches in the same bag you keep your lighter because the lighter may not work when it gets wet :-P , and the matches will??? If you worry about these things, take a magnesium fire starter with you! there cheap and work when wet ;-)

    You are very right in reference to the cell phone so individuals were just saved from Great falls, Maryland using a cell phone, if not for the cell phone, even though there were two of them they probably would be in some tough kinchy. So always bring a cell phone and possibly walkie talkies and keep it on the basic channel (1) so other hikers, if they are carrying one can hear your calls of desperation. “And Thats My Two (2) Cents “

    im not certified but my mom is a nurse and she NEEDS to learn CPR. She also gave me books about splint making and my cadet handbook only helps more.

    He probably had waterproof matches…

  13. aheartonfire says:

    im also certified and you can end up hurting the victim even if you know what you are doing, BUT if you need to do CPR the victim is actually technically dead so the damage you can do might end up saving there life.

    If a lighter gets wet, so will your matches.
    Also you’ll need a bear keg for your food if you camp.

    Cardio Polmunary resuscitation…. CPR: Few things: CPR IS NOT WHAT THEY SHOW ON BAYWATCH! I am certified in First Aid and CPR and it is completely different from what tv shows. So do not do it unless you know what you’re doing or you might actually end up harming the victim. It is always a good thing to know, if u’re in college they probably offer classes that teach you that. So go on and take it, it can only help in the future.

    You should not put your survival kit in you back pack if you loose it down river or a bear gets it.Have it in a fanny pack then you have it all times never take it off cause even you go looking for fire wood you could get lost or night could come fast on you not find way back

  17. mckitchie says:

  18. cobraNBA says:

    WHAT

  19. climberslacker says:

    Please, you can get sued if you are operating out of what is considered “normal ability” and you don’t end up saving their life. So don’t preform CPR of your not trained and certified, especially if you don’t know what it stands for!
