I like the way you show the tips with just enough explanation, without overdoing it. One thing that is sometimes annoying with other similar videos by bush-crafters is spending 10 minutes to learn just one of the tips\tricks you demonstrated, filling the rest of the time with over-explaining, sponsors, or just not being as direct and to the point as you were.
Every sailor in the US Navy knows that flotation technique. That's why sailors wore bell bottoms, more room for air.
Yup. Never had Ranger training, but learned to turn my pants into a flotation device in Navy boot camp.
Tought it in Scouts too.
Every human whit a brain understands the floation techniqeu kinda disapoting that people need a ytube video to understamd simple survival
Actually, the bell bottom pants were originally used (1800s) to keep your shoes from getting scuffed or dirty.
@@tomasvangeest4161you assume too much.
Thank you! Clear, concise and to the point without any needless extra explanations.
The rain pants as water bladders is a great idea. However, with respect, may I suggest not cutting them and only fill each leg as needed, so; 1)you don't need extra cordage to tie them together. 2)you only need a zip tie for each leg. 3) you can reuse them.
correct
never destroy kit.
Your perception of application is right.
couldn't you just tie the ankles of each leg the same way he did and then drape the pants around your neck with the crotch of the pants on the back of your neck?
Ya but than you got nothing to wear
@@amosboot1092 idk for US army but in France, rain pants are pants you wear ON your “duty” pants, so you wouldn’t be naked. But idk if it’s the same in the US army. ENLIGHTEN ME GUYS
@@grahamfisher5436 As a retired Marine, I agree with your assessment. We also used our trousers for emergency flotation as he did here with rain pants, however, flotation lasted long enough then we repeated the air catch maneuver over and over again. The tight weave of military trousers is an advantage to regular trousers of civvy use. We train in water survival and all the ways one can stay afloat for days. We did something similiar with our shirts as well. We learned survival swimming which required keeping the body afloat by making one swim motion and sucking in air then floating the body but all gear had to be gone like packs or anything with weight, otherwise it would pull us down and suspension would be difficult. We would put both hands with our arms extended in front of us then make a gentle but powerful sweep to our sides once to take a breath then hang in suspension holding our breath, when releasing the air we repeated the same process over and over again until rescue or we saw small wave cresting, meaning we were near a beach. The objective is to reduce calorie demand of our bodies. When surviving in the ocean or large bodies of water, regardless of technique , we must be conscientious about the use of calories. calories = energy. Land survival requires never cutting anything if at all possible, a greater need may just be around the corner or at some distance. Cutting trousers for water containment is a very bad thing to do. Rain clothes can insulate you from high winds and cold nights, keeping you warm or even be a form of bivvy with water repellence at night or if it rains. There are many uses for fully intact outerwear. If need be, fill both legs with water cinch them with cord in the crotch area of both legs flop one leg on the front of one shoulder and flop the other on the back side of the same shoulder to carry to your destination. Easy Peasy. I like watching this channel because it reminds me of the good old days, my era, Viet Nam. Practice, practice, practice and tease out the weaknesses ! Take care ! A friend always.
You made me cry when you cut up rain pants… Good bye Woodland pants! Lol. Great tips today applying survival to the Soldier’s load out. Highly overlooked aspect of survival is creating weapons for protection… nature has a lot of predators roaming around… best to have something to keep distance (spear/pike) and something incase the distance contracts (club/black jack/ primitive knife or wooden spike).
Neat trick using the cravat to wick water into the canteen cup too!
Keep up the Fire!
As a retired vet I continually learn from your great videos..
Excellent, simple and straightforward instruction. I hope everyone that watches this will implement it very soon.
This was a winner! The pants float I knew from lifeguard training in the 80's; but many of these were new to me and must tries! Like many have said, I dig your teaching approach. Say it. Show it. Do it. I'm down with a back injury; so, all of your drops are good medicine while I drive myself not being able to be active. Thanks and carry on. Hooyah!
I am following every single video you publish. Again; great job, simple explanation, zero unnecessary information. In my view; you are a great instructor. Thank you for your great work.
That is about 10 gal. Great tips , hope the Army has you teaching. many good tips. Do enjoy watching. Thank You.
Learned to use our uniforms as flotation devices in the navy. Nice video. Thanks
Thank you for all that you do for us Andrew! Great knowledge and skills in the field! Keep well buddy!
badass. Really appreciate the straightforward no BS demonstrations.
Those skills are definitely worth knowing. The BDU pants for floatation is (or was in my day) a must learn & master skill for all Coast Guard personnel in basic training. I'll remember the rain pants water bladder. In WW2 the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) developed a combo CQB weapon known as the Peskit... a retractable garotte, steel ball for striking the head, and a spring ice pick. Glad to see you are feeling better Major !
Yeah, I went through CG boot camp in 1977 and we all had to tread water while taking off our pants and doing this technique. Also had to button our shirts to our necks and push air in the bottom of the shirt so the back of our shoulders trapped the air. Must keep splashing water on the cloth to hold the air in.
Thanks for the tips.will use on camping trips for practice so if needed I'll have the tip to fall back on.
Thank you very much for making these CZcams films, full of knowledge. If I hadn't broken my leg & ankle sure I would have joined the military.
Always looking forward to your videos Andrew, keep em coming bud 👍. Hope you and your family are doing great. Stay safe and be well brother. Strength and Honor... 👊 🤙 🍻
Kool stuff as usual Col. I learned the flotation trick in Navy Boot Camp 1966 lol, the rest were good reminders and a couple new skills. T-man
I appreciate your sharing your knowledge and experience. You are a boon to those of us who have not had the opportunity to gain experience firsthand! Thank you.
Grateful you are here. Goes back to the first Ranger commando training under “Iron Mike” O’Daniel, when using fragile hemp rope. The grappling hook and line are still essential for scaling and descending the tricky peaks. You may need to let gear down with the line to get it off your back. Your dog may have to ride down behind you on your shoulders. Been there many times.
Thank you for the informative video and thank you for your service. God bless you. 🙏
Hello 👋 Andrew, thank you for sharing this life saving vital information. Please keep these great tips coming along. Stay safe out there. 🤗
Another outstanding video. Thanks for these incredible tips. Stay safe and keep your powder dry.🙏🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲
I love how you use those sticks through the handles of your canteen cup I’ve never seen that before super excellent way to suspend your water over fire
Awesome skills, survival is really a state of mind or "zone". Once you get your mind processing in the direction, you will find yourself trouble shooting survival situations along with knowledge
Thank you for sharing this knowledge. It can come in handy someday.
Good tips! My dad told me he was trained in the Navy to use one's pants to create a flotation device as you show. That was back in the Vietnam war era.
Great info on that vine trick can’t wait to try it, thanks for sharing 👍
finally a video straight to the point... quick and informative!
My dad taught me both leg tricks. I show and practice videos with my kids. Thx
That was very clear, concise and informative, on something I know very little about. Good to know👍 Thank you 🙏 😀
Another awesome video. Thank you sir for your knowledge and efforts to educate us.
Excellent video, Andrew! Thames for sharing these tips.
6 of them I learned in the Boy Scouts back in the early 80's. Our Scout Master never was in the military, but he believed that us boys needed to learn how to survive out in the woods.
It's better to know a skill and never need it than be in the situation that you need it and don't know it. Another thing, you need to practice your skills so it's easier to do when you need it.
Enjoyable watch, good clear information and pace, thank you
Awesome vid. !!! I love when you throw in how to clear Wire obstacles!!! Just great!!!
You're great man! Many thanks for sharing your knowledges with us..
Andrew…Many thanks… I learned some of these when I was in the Corps. However, that was a few decades ago. Your video isa refresher. Best regards!!
Great video!
I learned the pants floatation one in Boy Scouts in the 80s.
Always learning new things from your channel very helpful skills I will be practicing in the future . Thanks for the teachings .
Two things I always learn from your videos is that it's always best to be prepared with the right gear but if you have good gear and a few items particularly a good knife or multi-tool and basic items like cordage, zipties or duct tape (duck tape, 100 mph) you can still improvise to deal with unexpected problems.
As a GenXer I lived through the ninja craze of the eighties, so the grappling hook brought a smile to my face. The quality of your expertise and the way you transmit it is outstanding AF. Cheers to major. 👍
Me too 😂
Awesome! I was taught use of the grotto by a wwii marine, who used it to clear islands obmvernight in the pacific.
Also like the grappling hook idea.
Great show! Thanks for sharing!
Neat. We learned the floating pants thing in the Navy back in the days of dungarees.
Thank you Andrew!
One of the best bushcraft/survival skills channel on You Tube. Giving awesome, life saving information free. Take care and keep up the excellent work.
10 skills plus a bonus hack. I have never seen that hack with the sticks through the canteen cup handles before.
Using pants as a flotation device was something we learned in Red Cross lifeguard classes, as I recall.
Outstanding! Down and dirty just the way I like it. Look forward to next week class. Thank you for sharing. Bravo
Great video sir! I had forgotten about using pants as a floatation device. Thanks very much for the reminder. Have a great upcoming Summer.
awesome tips and tricks some i had learned in the Army in the 80s some from the Air Force in the 90s but you always come up with some new ones for me to Rock thanks
No melons were harmed during this video 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Another outstanding informative video! Ten skills and 3 uses for a cantaloupe 😊.

Instantly Subscribed! cant wait to binge watch the rest of ur stuff. Cheers!
Gran video Andrew. Muchas gracias por compartirlo con nosotros. Un gran abrazo compañero 👍
Excellent vid! All valuable info.Appreciate your teachings. 🇺🇸👍
I remember during boot camp we did drills for water survival and used our pants (Utilities at the time) that you demonstrated. When they gave us the dreaded acquaflauge in 2010, it was difficult to grasp what the point was if your uniform blended perfectly with the ocean when one fell overboard 🤣
Thanks for sharing - always appreciate your videos!
🤣🤣 very true. The odds of someone being recovered seems slim at best.
03:15 Ah... u got your very own "Bruise Kit"!!! 😆
These skills are awesome, I can only imagine the things you can't show us. Truly elite....
Maaan you blew my nips off with that pant water floatation thing! Best survival tips I've seen so far from about 20-30 other videos
Great video with a ton of life saving information! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks,…..your work-in’s of humor is spot-on..fabulously funny, and thanks for the seriousness of your platform,we need solid content like this to slowly try ourselves! Stay safe,mate!
Really informative and enjoyable, thank you for Service Sir !!!
Wow, thank you. I just had to subscribe with all the awesome info. Cheers
Thanks for this video, good info to know. Doing a great job, keep the videos coming. Being a vet I feel like I’m back in training again, but getting to set on the couch . Lol better than those old buildings at Bragg back in the day. Have a good week.
Awesome video Major Andrew. Excellent technique’s sir. Thanks 🙏 keep up your great videos.
Outstanding! Excellent tips.
Thank you for this great video 🫡💪🏽
Excellent
Not mentioned but the cross sticks in the handles of the cup to boil water was genius
Thank you very much!
Awesome information. Thank you!
I love these awesome skills, look forward to them every week, thanks again Andrew.
My father learned that in the Navy during WWII. He taught me that when I was a kid. Water wings that is.
Great advice, thanks.
Thanks for the video. I'd debate with the "sock water filter" however. In arid conditions, without any decent foliage or trees that may be the only way. Given that we'd have any plants around us I think it's best to create a tube from the bark and then apply filters. Sock itself gets wet quickly and after several seconds we only filter majority of the water trough it's fabric, as its the "quicker" way for water to drop down.
Wow, does this bring back memories. Lots of good stuff here !! Keep them videos coming !!!
Great video,informative and straight to the point
Getting Along Alone is a good CZcams channel that has videos that talks about survival in my opinion.
Thanks very good info. Keep up the great work.
Enjoy your videos always something new to learn
Hi Andrew, great tips my friend, I especially liked the improvised shorts, plus water bags, I think your ire saws must be pretty good quality, as the ones I've had this side of the pond have been poor , to say the least. Hope everything is going well for you, and your feeling much better, thanks for another interesting video mate, stay safe Major, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
