I really like this. All the items mentioned are things that we have all read about or seen before, but this reminder keeps simple but effective survival tips forefront in our minds in case a situation goes bad. My favorite impression of these videos is the simplicity.

Curious about the trash bags. Are those 95 gallon bags?

I think they are 95gallons.  But all the big ones I found online were really wide and not so long. Plus you had to order them bulk.

So you're not using the 95 gallon bags?  I'm confused.

I gave up trash bags for SOL's 3.2 ounce Survival Blanket.  It makes a pretty damn good poncho with some duct tape (which I've done)  I use it most often for a ground cloth, it makes a big difference on how warm I sleep, especially on winter camps.  It's 5x7' so it's big enough to "taco" around a sleeping bag and pad if it really sucks outside.  In my opinion, it's more useful gear than a trash bag.

The BOT is badass.

Fatwood and Ferrocium rods, and how to use them should be something every outdoorsman knows.

Nice job Clay.  I truly enjoy you're productions.

Sorry about that. Yes, I think this bag is 95 gal.  But it's longer and narrower than most of the 95 gal bags I found online.
