Easiest Bushcraft Fire Starting Method | Pump Drill
Ovens Rocky Mountain Bushcraft
@ovensrockymountainbushcraftAbout
Canadian native, Greg Ovens, has been studying outdoor survival and bushcraft since the age of 12. He spent the past 30 years living among the Canadian Rocky Mountains in the Columbia Valley of British Columbia, where he enjoys testing his hunting, fishing, hiking, and bush-crafting skills. Being a drywaller by trade, combined with his passion for outdoors, it’s no surprise that he also prides himself in being able to build a shelter out of just about anything. Recently, Greg was on Season 3 of History Channel’s “Alone”, where he survived with no human contact for 51 days (over seven weeks) before hypothermia caught up with him in the Patagonian wilderness. He’s launching this channel with the video series, “30 Day Survival Challenge”, where he and Zachary Fowler (“Alone” Season 3 Winner) venture out into the Canadian Rockies of British Columbia, where the only rule is: if you want to eat, you have to catch and cook it. Please contact Greg on email or Facebook Messenger.

Video Description
Today Greg talks about the pump drill. The pump drill is considered one of the easiest ways to get fire in the bush. Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.
