If you like to cringe, watch this...

[treefrog]

First of all it took me a minute to figure out what language this guy was speaking...

Check out the serious knife abuse he administers. Makes you just want to grab his arm and say 'Stop'.

[happybonzo]

You should post the original link to YouTube. I'm sure that some one could advise him :)

[AL...]

That guy is a genius! Simple!

Can any of you lot light a fire *AND* hone your blade to a razors edge at the same time. ...I didn't think so.
How dare you mock him! LOL

BRILLIANT! Thanks for posting!

[Silverback]

Waves that blade round like hes a Jedi......

[comanighttrain]

no....what?....no....

[JEEP]

And, he actually has a striker attatched to his firesteel....

I all fairness though; I once saw a Finnish guy, who sold custom antler handled firesteels at a fair, demonstrate the firesteels by doing the same thing - with his beautiful handcrafted puukko...

[SimonB]

Sweeeeeet tears of pain !!!!!!!

The bloke is a plonker.................

[jus_young]

Scary!

The A+E will be busy with all the poor souls that follow his example. Folks like these that post videos for others to follow should be done for culpable GBH.

[AL...]

Dont think I would trust him with a plastic spork!!
Ive watched it twice and both times I felt kinda sick!!

Cheers
AL

[CanadianMike]

Almost like he's afraid of the sparks....

[paulthefish2009]

Almost like he's afraid of the sparks....

Thats what i thought,like the way he hesitates then gets a bit desperate and starts hacking away. Paul

[treefrog]

We need to introduce this guy to Mountainous; they'd make a great team.

[Humakt]

How many firesteels do you reckon he gets through in a year!?

I loved the 'an old Indian taught me this' bit, punctuated with 'talking shite'. I giggled so much at that I let out a bit of wee.
Just proves that not all aged Indians are wise sages in tune with the natural world. Clearly some of them are complete numpties just like us soulless westerners.

This video has to be a wind up though, don't you think? God bless the innocent wit of a Scotsman steeped in too much scotch...

[Humakt]

Oh yes.
And from now on, when I need to kneel down, I'm going to find me an uncomfortable looking jagged rock first. It clearly makes a difference.

[Metal mug]

Ouch.

[Tony1948]

Wot a nob,The first time he lights it he blow it out and then tryed to do it again:zombie-fighting:

[barnes3126]

I bet his surgeon gets a lot of business.

When the video is playing, you can click on the YouTube icon at the bottom, and it will take you to the video on YouTube :)

I wonder how many knives he gets through in a year lol. Least it won't be sharp enough to do any damage to himself after that.

Ok Now thats just real scary!!!! :shocked:

[ian c]

Im just glad that it is not one of my knives that he is using.

[Old Guard]

Who else was shouting at the screen .... that has gotta be the first time he's actually light a fire !!! .... D'OH!

[Howling Dingo]

Ahhhhhh......!Yip Glasgow boy for sure,

[Tigger004]

He needs a fire steel like the old carving knives ( with swivell hand guard bit ), can any one remember those?

[barnes3126]

This poor unfortunate fellow has 3 other videos on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwMTn_RzTH0&feature=plcp, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye3G4O46dHM&feature=plcp, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Urflk9jhJU&feature=plcp, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Lo9RpI9BKA&feature=plcp, All of them were made approximately 3 years ago. My guess is he was fatally injured making the 5th or was caught and returned to the asylum.

[biker-bri]

I have just watched this - I will now have to take one of my pill's for high blood pressure.
I will also have to take one for anxiety and one for depression.
If anyone knows this guy please give him a revolver with one round in it and tell him to do the decent thing.
He will probably miss.
My day is ruined.
Cheers Bri:sad:

What... Shoot his father for siring him?... :D

Obviously the brains he was supposed born with ran down his mothers leg.

[Likantropo]

I hid my knives so they wouldn't watch this guy killing his... :zombie-fighting:

[alvino78]

erm..............oh dear!!!!!! and OI YOU NO!!!!!!!!!

[MtB]

Classic Youtube replies:

"Why are you molesting the knife like that?"

"how has this guy got any fingers left?"

"time fur the midges ti come eat ye alive ya puddin'!"

"lol it was going and he blew it out!"


@biker-bri : If anyone knows this guy please give him a revolver with one round in it and tell him to do the decent thing.
Oh God no! He'd either chop at it with his knife or use it to chop his firesteel with.

[luresalive]

Plank

[Opal]

Maybe he eventually inhaled the smoke. :)

[Tigger004]

All this guy needs is a huge quantity of petrol to soak the area all around him and I bet it would light first strike, saving a lot of time and frustration, I'm glad that old Indian he talks about didn't teach me...ha ha

[EddieJ]

I want the 110 seconds of my life back that I have just been robbed of. :(

[freedom]

Wow billy no fingers, dangerous!!

[karl]

Right at the beginning, he's off camera somewhere but you can hear him say "ach ya bas**rd" god only knows what new method he's found to hurt himself with.

Haha I new what accent he had as soon as I herd that haha

That seems like an expensive trip to me.. Not only has he used all his strikes on his fire lighter, he's ruined his knife and he's very nearly lost his fingers!! All this could have been prevented if he used his striker that he had attached to his fire lighter!!! Stupid man!!!
I don't think blowing out his fire helped either!!

What's even worse is, some people who are new to bushcrafting may watch this video and think, that is the way to do it... God help us all!!!
