6 days solo bushcraft - canvas lavvu, bow drill, spoon carving, Finnish axe

"6 days alone on the west coast of Denmark - two camps in the forest and one in the open land."

"Location: Denmark - previous viking country. West coast of Jutland - sand, big sea, spruce and pine forrest. Some of the most remote in Denmark, but a lot of people in Denmark so limited how remote it can get. A lot of birds and deer. No bears only a few wolves - nothing dangerous for campers. If you want to do the same in Denmark do you need to be the owner or get the owners permission."

Swampy The Hilux VS Flooding Australian Outback

"Meet Swampy: The converted 1996 Toyota Hilux with 46" extreme mud terrain 4WD tyres. In this episode of Unleashed, Jase and Simon take Swampy out to visit their mate Rhett's property in Lorella Spring, Northern Territory (Australia).

Unfortunately for them, the timing couldn't have been worse. A cyclone has recently developed nearby, creating torrential rain and flash flooding. Most 4WD's wouldn't be able to handle these kinds of tough conditions, but Swampy isn't like most 4WD's."

"It's a race against time to get Swampy — the 1996 Toyota Hilux with 46" extreme mud terrain 4WD tyres — to safety, as a cyclone approaches the team in remote Lorella Springs, Northern Territory (Australia).

Torrential rain and flash flooding has already begun. Most 4WD's wouldn't be able to handle these kinds of tough conditions, but Swampy isn't like most 4WD's."

"The boys are known for taking on some rough boating conditions, but this is next level! The tinnie mounted to Swampy — the 1996 Toyota Hilux with 46" extreme mud terrain 4WD tyres — is the only way to save the stranded quads from the other side of river that is rapidly flooding due to a cyclone passing overhead in remote Lorella Springs, Northern Territory (Australia).
