Love the way he puts his words! Plain speaking yet deep enough.

“We have to be very careful to drink only treated water or else you will explode from both ends.” Ah, poetry!

line cooks and chefs are required by law to take a servesafe certification course that teaches about allergies and how to prevent food born illness. It only costs around $20 if you wanted to take the course otherwise the information's is free and scattered across the internet. Water boils at 212 degrees and to completely "sterilize" food you must hold an internal temperature of 165 degrees for 15 whole seconds (pretty much no bacteria can survive). This process works for sterilizing equipment as well.

Have you guys ever used the .0 gravity water filter by Sawyer? My family and I served as missionaries in Guatemala and Latin America for 10 Years and used this system. We gave out thousands to the people down there because it clears pathogens from any source of water, we even tried it drinking directly from sewer water. It doesn’t eliminate the smell but makes dirty water drinkable.

I recently saw a video about Sawyer... I have a few of their filters, and I knew there are "better" ones available, but what I didn't know is how nobody does more as far as putting filters into the hands of those in need as Sawyer does. It's a noble cause and a hell of an undertaking they've got going on. I'll definitely keep buying their stuff.

Got the same grayl, works amazing. Also the titanium version is multi purpose

I like to go hiking. I carry a Sawyer squeeze with me as a secondary source. I can't remember the name but someone did a very thorough review of many different methods.... Good stuff.

Interesting. I love the PACE concept. I actually had no idea about filter bottles and I love the concept. Thank you guys for teaching me these little things. These skills will be passed down from generation to generation.

They take quite a bit of force to press, so be sure to avoid man handling the bottle opening, potentially cross contaminating where your mouth touches. When I bought my first Grayl I thought I'd be able to scoop and press while walking, but this is barely possible. It takes quite a bit of compression, so if the average person is already fatigued you will need to stop and put your weight over it on the ground. I own 3 Grayls, so other than that and dealing with extreme cold I highly recommend them in most cases imo. If you buy one I hope you like it 🙂

Only way to "treat" water the absolute safe way...is to use the boil/condense method. Building a small still is easy. Also if drinking untreated water, try finding fast moving head waters over pooled stagnant water.

Good stuff!

We used Polar Pure when out hiking for weeks, tiny bottle of iodine that can treat about 1000 gallons.

Katadyn Filter Bottle, Sawyer Mini Filter, Lifestraw, Iodine pills. I always carry at least three. Thanks for the Video

Thank you!🤗♥️🇺🇸

Great video, thanks! Yes, only boiling as hell will purify water after filtration, that means long enough and hard enough. Some dangerous prototozoe and single cell organisms are quite resistent and one can get sick of them delayed, even months and years after incorporation. And at least, why not have a tea outside😀.

Good tips

Thanks man

Any advice on the Lifesaver Jerry can? I recently ran across those and it looks like it'd be a good option for families and for overlanding/camping

Thanks!!! :D

UV with a filter is great as long as you can power it.

I've always wondered how much if any is is rain water, straight from the clouds, on tap.

Good content

Nice.

Thanks for the Info. What rain gear do you use?

My favorite filter is the katadyn squeeze. You squeeze the bag and don't have to suck on it like other bottles

Enjoy seeing videos from my area, WET PNW 👍😂

There are lots of sources of water that are safe to drink, however I think this is a better safe than sorry, sort of scenario. Also, probably assuming most people can't tell the difference between safe and unsafe water. Stagnant water is never safe, while moving water can be. But once again, better safe then sorry. Especially in an emergency survival scenario

Please review the shooting in Nashville it would be awesome to hear your opinion on the matter

Please check your audio system. Thank you.

There's a special membrane you can get from laboratory stores that acts as filter. Many people that took lab in college may have seen it. It looks like paper. There's another one that looks like a plastic. It's porse are microscopic.

Ya I would recommend a filtration method, followed by chlorination or UV light as a secondary means of treatment! Preferably a membrane filter which is probably what is being used in his bottle filter method! This filtration method provides up to log 5 removal of viruses, the smallest pathogens! Chlorination however is the only real means for storing treated drinking water as it provides a residual that proves the water is still safe to drink over time!

Great video! Choppy audio, though.

@The Fieldcraft Survival ..will you be doing a video on the police response in Nashville?

So what about "LifeStraw"?

Serious question: How do you treat water with tritium in it?

The city I'm in is about to run at a capacity to treat water. Our wastewater goes into the same river that draws our drinking water.

You can always tell when someone grew up on the east coast because we always boil water.

Something so microscopic can affect us on such a big scale, look at seasonal allergies for example

So now that I know the Grail makes a stainless steel container my plan is to get a grill and have a couple of stainless steel water bottles that I can transfer water from the Grail to those bottles and then fill the Grail back up that will give me enough water keep me going when it's raining like it is I'll figure out how not to get a crawdad cross-contamination as I do that maybe have me a Poncho or something like that that keeps me a little dry and no water coming into those bottles to do what I need to do I will figure it out I live in the Pacific Northwest I live in Oregon Salem Oregon all the time and I can figure things out at home during that time I am 65 years old and I don't go out hunting anymore I can't

I would love to discuss some things with you, I was a combat medic in the Army and I am retired Army. Please contact me if you see fit. Love what you do by the way.

What are your thoughts on the police response from the Nashville school shooting.

T of us know about water what we don't know is how to purify it boiling is one but how do you make a water purifier;?it's possible not easy

I like the videos and a lot of the information. That being said, what are you trying to teach for? Survival, Hiking, End of world stuff? I am an avid backpacker, and I have lived in oregon my whole life, so I am familiar with always being wet and cold. I think people would benefit more from these videos if they were more aligned for what they are doing. Just my opinion thank you for your teachings.

Your tinfoil hat is on tight. It has a lot more to do with the fact that in old days water born pathogens killed millions and millions every year around the world. It was the leading cause of death in most eras.

You say water HAS to be brought to a roaring boil, but .... have you heard of pasteurization? bringing water to 165 deg F will achieve the same as boiling.

U are not completely right because the grayl can make 1-2 freezings without getting destroyed👍

Zero water needs to find a way to take their technology that filters water into a smaller footprint. Their smaller products do not perform like their fullsize products.

Gonna be a "no shit Sherlock" type of comment but reminder don't drink sea/salt water and no your filter won't work on it.

Fix your audio Jesus lol
