I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else wants to uncover us army field manual survival try Ichordo Survival Medical Fixer (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my friend got amazing success with it.

I have endless respect for this guy and what he did. Just endless.

One of my favourite Ray Mears episodes

Happy to have discovered this guy. So far I like his methodical, matter-of-fact shows much better than the Bear Gryll's overly stylized dramas

Bear Grylls is a reality TV style 'survival' expert. Ray Mears is just a genuine survival expert. He is so knowledgeable, and takes lessons from innumerable different indigenous peoples, modern militaries, and proven survival techniques. He makes a point of gaining expertise in not some, but all different environments, from the oceans, to the mountains, to the desert, to the plains, to... well, everything inbetween. He's such an interesting guy, with such respect for nature, and *none* of what he does is for show - a refreshing change from every other 'survival' or 'bushcraft' show going, and the reason I've always really respected him. Beetrecca is right - he's a legend in the UK, (in the right circles). God save Ray Mears!!!

Ray is a very knowledgable guy who has no need to carry a huge ego around with him,unlike his contempories in this field.some people have their own name branded merchandise and ruck sacks to help carry it in.humble and wise gets my respect.

*jay tee* Ray Mears does advertise in his shows, he has his name stamped on his bushcraft knife.

awesome episode ppl should be watching stuff like this not bloody xfactor and brainwashing carp on TV :D

Amazing. This man should run a country. A strong will and indomitable spirit can make one achieve just about anything.

Futurama is a great show :) Cheers from Denmark

That is an awesome Video. I first heard of this in the early 80 in "Sports Afield" magazine and read the short story about Callahan. Then in the 2002 or so, I got the book a the library and read it. Great story.

Praise the Lord, because he promised to never leave us those who believe in him. Call on his name Jesus in good times and in survival times and be still for he will fight for you

One of the most important things to have in your sea survival kit is a reverse osmosis hand pump. You can then use the sea water to get fresh water. I read a book where a couple spent a long time in a raft after a whale sunk their sail boat, but they had a reverse osmosis pump and never wanted for water.

cool video, i really like it! that guy was decently prepared too, good for him!

Good documentary.

Excellent excellent video!

Ray Mears is like Les Stroud and not like Bear Grylls who stages his survival ordeal

I for one welcome our new piscine overlord.

Ray is my hero.

Don't forget to put a cork, safety pins and elastic bands in your survival kit!

that was an amazing and inspiring story.

I would like to see Ray Mears hunt, catch, kill and eat Bear Grills.

You need your own survival show

Brilliant

Ray is my god!

Ray Mears shorts were alarmingly short

Yeah you're right - air does slowly escape, but it gives you a few minutes of buoyancy - after that you just have to swing your pants over your head again to refill the legs and stay afloat for another few minutes. Tedious yes, but it's a hell of a lot easier than treading water instead

Agree!

👏

That hair line🤣💀

nice shorts Ray....i think you're missing about half the length on your legs brah. This is an awesome episode..im always fascinated with these survival shows about sea survival. Seems like its an impossible thing to survive out there. I guess without those solar stills this guy would have been a goner, most people wouldnt have one of those stills i imagine. Definitely an awesome story this guy has, that he was surviving so well. Amazing stuff here

carp?...that is on the fishing network right?

Anybody know the title of the opening theme music? Or how i could get it

this guy predates the other guys and is a real SAS expert , follow this guy your chance of living gratly increse

"The mentality of people on the water is to help those in trouble if you can. Nobody would ignore that" you just might be surprised.

I agree with not watching Xfactor. But brainwashing carp, I would enjoy watching that

good advice for anyone that who have been reduced to survival instincts.

Fuck man, I would not have survived this. This guy is a titan in levels of psychological strength.

Ray is a How To Guy !

Being lost at sea is about the same as being lost in a vast remote desert except much worse

Ray Mears needs to shave that unibrow.

theres a pretty good survivorman episode for that it yhink called survival at sea or something

all power and glory to the hypno carp

Mr Mears is a wee bit chubby.

Hypothermia is the biggest menace. Even in 50 Farenheit, you lose body temp so fast that you only have about 1-3 hours survival. In freezing water, 30 minutes or less.

I built a chopper motorcycle out of parts from a type 23 [mixed with a yamaha xs.]

the part referring to the guy named steve; anybody else get remnants of 'the life of pi' (the book) in there? like the dorado reference, and eating certain parts of the fish?

I laughed extra hard at what you wrote when i read you user name

Why do they say to roll into a life raft? Thanks.

@teirdalinthree9783

7 жыл бұрын

I believe it's because stepping in could damage the raft with your footwear, as well as the fact you could lose your footing and fall back in.

if my yacht starts to sink i would just fly away on my chopper.

Why did he not call Flipper to rescue him?

That dude in the green shirt lol, just get it over and done with and shave your head man 🤣🤣

You fit it before you go overboard, where they subsequently go unconscious with cold water shock or other stuff (plane crash usually)

Hi Ray. I´m from Tenerife. If you do come to Tenerife again, please let me know.

Maybe he saw a carp brainwashing something on TV. Now that would be amazing.

can anyone tell me the name of book he read while drifting in the ocean?

even if a ship see's the flairs they may not want to deviate from their course.

I saw some stories of survival. I'd rather see Ray do it.

And once I know the latitude... What's next?

Lol i thought it was Ray surviving i really hope i can see this kind of stuff and not just cut and see other's surviving experience.

water from the spinal cords of fish? Are you serious? Have you seen many fish with water in their spines? they dont have much fluid in their spine, if you can find any at all. They dont have spines like humans, and any fish that was small enough for him to spear, definitely didnt have any spinal fluid like you're saying. The eyes on the other hand, you're absolutely right...they are like gumballs full of drinkable water.

bet he wouldn't survive a level 4 yard prison :P

All thats tellin me is design easier to open flares

@problemattk9966

4 жыл бұрын

You're right, there is definitely some room for improvement in the design of the flares. However we can't make them too easy and simple to detonate because of the fact that they might go off in the boat or the storage bag accidentally, they need the plastic packaging to protect it from sea water or corrosion. setting the whole thing alight, to specify; If setting them off is as simple as a pull tag, or a pull-ring thing like a grenade, they could easily get caught on something when moving them around or accidentally ignite because of rough waves. on open water, in a survival situation, The last thing you want is a blazing firework stored in the boat, man. It's a good idea though.

someone brainwashed a carp on TV? Amazing!

Damn the hairline on dude!! Just let go!!

have you ever wondered. if your in the army what are you fighting for and i no the answer

Toilet paper saved my life. Not sarcasm. Flage

Or did the carp brainwash someone ? :O

Moby Dick FTW

Fish can brainwash people? Is that on the Food Channel?

Finally something good from Pak.

interesting points ,if anyone else trying to find out us army field manual survival try Ichordo Survival Medical Fixer ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my m8 got excellent results with it.
