Bushcraft is cool... but can it actually keep you alive?
In this brutally honest video, I break down 19 real survival skills that go way beyond carving spoons or building forest furniture. This isn’t a weekend hobby—it’s the raw truth from years on the road, living rough, walking for miles, and surviving outdoors when things go bad.
Forget the fantasy. If you're a prepper, survivalist, nomad, or hobo trying to stay alive with what you’ve got on your back, this list is for you.
We’re talking real-world homeless survival, not TV show nonsense. These are the skills that actually matter when you're wet, cold, hungry, broke—and still need to keep moving.
Topics Covered:
- Why bushcraft won't save you
- The myth of the "perfect gear loadout"
- Actual skills that work in urban and roadside survival
-Homeless-tested tactics for modern nomads and foot travelers
Watch this if you care about:
real survival, bugging out, long-term travel on foot, living homeless, or ditching the fantasy for real-world survivalism.
