    Six years later these videos are still fascinating and hilarious !
    Thank you Alfie, you're a legend !
    Your mate really slashed into his knee with that nasty ol' flint !
    Speaking from experience, seeing your own white meat is a bad time ☹️

    You seem to make being a science ‘boff’ really cool :) I used to hate science before I saw your videos and its usefulness in the outdoors, but now im gonna be taking applied biology and chemistry in sixth form next year because of you. Thanks alfie. These videos are the perfect blend of education and fun… its sometimes very difficult to merge those two things

    You're one of the coolest guys on CZcams. I was looking at prepping and survival videos and I'm so glad I came across yours. I was getting tired of watching 50 year old outdoorsmen. Please keep making videos, I've already learned so much.

    You always crack me up Alfie! I love listening to you. I've become an Alfie Fan about a month ago and now I listen to you over and over again on my drive home every day, learning as much nature shit as I can from ya! Thanks for all your wittiness, smarts and creativity. Now, can you make a video where you go step by step on the the things you were cooking and let us see you eat it while you describe what it tastes like for us?

  • @johndoeanon445
    @johndoeanon445 Před 10 lety +11

    I think the mushroom is a Macrolepiota procera, parasol mushroom, I think it's called in English. If I'm right, you pick that badboy and fry him up in a fuckload of butter.

  • @stavross2

  • @Woodlandcritterexplorations

    Randomly stumbled on your videos and find them a quite entertaining spin on foraging/hiking/camping/bushcrafting. Funny I caught your little insert I noticed 2 people identified it's scientific name so I'll just randomly throw out Macrolepiota procera into the comment thread in case a third wasn't present as my lazy American ars isn't going through the whole thread 😎🤣🤘. Hope you continue making more vid content so I can vicariously hike UK thanks man!
