Wish this was taught in school.. thanks for the awesome content as always Donny!!

These sounds would get me divorce papers. lol

Your channel is one of my favorites. ✌️🤟

It's really important to have a water container because especially in the middle of the summer when everything's hot you gotta be hydrated to keep moving our ancestors have been using those water containers for a long time and  that's what made voyages and longer travels easier, great video All the best,Wild Wisdom is such great book I presume just like Scavenger and Eartroamer

It would be interesting if some of that inner material would catch a spark if powdered.

Right on. I planted some gourds last summer when you put the video out. Had about thirty on the vines. Due to all the rain and humidity, most of them were lost to mold and fungus. I have four left that are still drying up in the rafters in my garage. They have some surface mold on them, but I think they’re ok. Can’t wait to get your book. Thanks.🤙🏻

THIS IS HIS GOURD!! WE WILL CARRY IT FOR YOU MASTER!!  CAST OFF THE SHOE AND FOLLOW THE GOURD!!  THE HOLY GOURD OF JERUSALEM!!

I love how long it takes to accomplish these primative tasks. It proves that people back than really got it... living is not facebook posts and youtube. And a water bottle would have definatly been a prized possesion. Not something they left the cave without :)

Instant pre-order! I planted some gourd seeds in my garden last week to do exactly this, then you post a video on the day that two popped! I am loving your channel, I really dig the vibe. Keep up the great work! 🙏

Dang I wish I got this before the drawing I love watching this I wish I could live in the mountains and live off the land me and my grandma and grandpa did when I was a kid they raised me I feel like I don’t fit in with people my age and society the way it is today. I will give anything to go on a trip in the outback with you man that would be awesome and learn some new traits but I will be getting that book.

There's a New Testament line I've never understood about how you can't make fresh wine in old (skins, or bottles) because at the time wine was made in amphoras and those are ceramic. And pricey. Bottles at the time were the size of airplane liquor bottles and really common and their shards are still all over the place.* When you started filling those gourds with wax, what if you didn't have so much wax but you had lots of resin? You could brew wine in gourds and as you said gourds would probably only last through one brewing but that's ok, gourds are cheap. If you wonder what such wine would taste like they still make it in Greece. It's called retsina. The NT passage could be about home brew.
*Remember "Throw your net on the other side of the boat"? Those glass bottles are all green. With flat bottoms. If someone looked through several of them the light would be polarized. Jesus could see the fish.

Lol, thank you so very much. This video brought back memories.  My grandfather grew several varieties of gords every year. We used to make all kind of things out of them from bird houses to water ladles. Thanks again

Definitely ordered your book.

Thank you for this man I'm definitely going to do this sounds like a great little project on something I can use

Amazing depth of knowledge.... you are so matter of fact.... it's refreshing... Thanks!!

🔥🔥🔥Greetings, colleague🤝That is, without an additional element, as you say, survival is impossible again ... I hasten to please you, this is both a water tank and a bottle for fishing on it with a fishing line. So - all this can be made in a primitive 1000 and 1 way. Which has already been shown several times. It's strange that there's no more content on YouTube that I'm shooting. I thought that people would think of all this quickly. But, I was wrong. Even 5 years after the release of my channel, few people know about it...

George Stewart, a well-known Colorado knapper and former Federal Hunter, once showed me a water container made from a dried buffalo's bladder. He stated that he learned to make them from a Native American friend. (They start out water-proof. 🙂) He's been deceased many years but was a great source of survival skill knowledge.

Does the gourd dry out on its own or do you have to do something to prevent it from rotting before it dehydrates?

Can't wait to get the book

Can you show a video of a makeshift fishing rod?
