    Corporal, I'm a 67 yr old (VN ERA vet, never in country, European duty due to MOS, i.e Pershing Missile related). Of all your vids I've watched, this one has got to be listed as my #1 favorite. Teaching a youth, assuming your son, is one of the greatest things I have seen you do. Trust me, at my age I know what I'm talking about, the memory you and your son will have of days like the one creating this vid will bring a smile on your faces in the years to come. Cherish them. One other thing, maybe you could let the young man join you in more of your teaching vids. Would be great for all of us to watch and learn from you as you pass down your knowledge not only to KZreadrs but your off spring as well. I say it that way because you may have a girl as well. Keep up the outstanding work your doing.

    Your son is incredibly lucky to have a father that does things like this with him. Some father's are violent drunks, others are just emotionally detached and couldn't care less about spending time with their sons or teaching them anything.

    Good show Dad. The only thing I would add to both rope bridge and knot videos is the fact that the butterfly knot puts far less stress on the rope than other knots, making it the best knot for mid-line connections.

Just to echo off everyone else comments this has to be my favorite video. My father brought me out camping at a young age and I have many, many cherished memories with him in the outdoors. Seeing you with your son spending quality time in nature, having fun is an amazing thing, reminded me of my childhood with my dad. I wish you happy Father’s Day and thank you for your hard work on your videos.
