Here’s a useful video tutorial from well known bushcrafter / survivalist Survival Lilly, showing us 5 types of survival shelter that can be made in with natural materials found in the forest.
This tutorial has minimal dialogue; instead being a mainly visual presentation. We can just watch and learn.
The first thing I noticed is that her shelters are very well camouflaged! If someone was wandering through the forest, they would have to be fairly close to spot the shelter. If you had some time and patience, you could probably make even greater efforts to dig the shelter in a little and make it even more camouflaged.
The first shelter gives an interesting demonstration of staying warm without any bedding, just covering yourself in leaves. It’s probably going to be buggy and of course you would not want to do this in an area where there was poison oak! But in a desperate situation, the leaf layer really could keep you alive and you would do it. I’ll pack a sleeping bag if I can though.
The log wall is an interesting touch. It reflects heat from a fire back in towards the camp – and can potentially dry out some logs too!
Note of course that open fires should only be made in areas where it would not be a fire risk and where there are no restrictions on camp fires.
The bent pole shelter is a traditional setup; known as a “bender” in the UK. Best made from young hazel, ash or similar stems that have a high flexibility. Her version is somewhat elaborate but I have seen benders made very simple from single bent poles tied together in a dome shape and pushed into the ground. She’s using natural brush but you can of course throw a canvas tarp over the top.
The fourth shelter is a simple lean-to bivvy that uses a silver-backed tarp.
The fifth is more fancy, a teepee style shelter covered in moss and featuring a bed made from logs. I think that’s the winner both in terms of durability and comfort, but it’s the most time consuming to make. It’s good to have options that are ultra-fast to put up, to get out of bad weather if need be.

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:
According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.
It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.
Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!
As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?
But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!
The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.
This gives you real water security!

What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)
After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.
As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.
Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises...
Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...
Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:
An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.
Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.
