THE GUYS FROM F.T.F. DECIDED TO FIND OUT…
For this Survival Dispatch challenge, the F.T.F. crew got together and turned YOUR comments from previous videos into survival challenges. They wrote the challenges on Post-it notes, dropped them into a kuksa cup, and Mike Simmons came along to draw my next challenge at random.
The challenge?
“Could you demonstrate how to start an emergency fire when hurt?”
So that’s exactly what I did.
First, I simulated a serious radius/ulna fracture and treated and immobilized the injury myself. Then, working with only one usable hand, I went through the entire process of building and starting an emergency fire from start to finish.
And I demonstrate THREE different ways to get that fire going while dealing with the injury.
This isn’t about making things look easy. It’s about thinking through a real-world emergency, adapting your equipment and techniques, and figuring out how to accomplish the task when circumstances aren’t ideal.
You’ll see the injury treatment, setup, fire preparation, ignition process, and the challenges that come with trying to do everything one-handed.
And of course… there’s always the question of what challenge Mike is going to pull out of that kuksa next.
If you’re enjoying the F.T.F. challenges and have an idea you’d like to see me attempt, drop it in the comments. Your comment might just end up on the next Post-it note.
If you’re honey-smack digging the video, leave me a snide remark in the comments section like share subscribe hit the notification bell for me, hype the video, and until next time, keep fueling those fires.
