I have the same scepticism with the Bear Grills show, I am a huge fan of the show, but I believe that most of his advice would kill a person with no prior training, it’s only an entertainment show and he is pretty close to die a few times, some of his climbing requires strength that only a small % of the population has, being a former SAS soldier he can do thing that 99,999% would not be able to do. Same goes for the show Dual Survival with Cody Lundin and Dave Canterbury, Cody’s barefoot approach has more negative than positive benefits, even if you as he has spent over 20 years with no shoes to toughen up the skin under you feet. I have no formal training in bush craft, probably the last person to take advice from, but my common sense has no doubt that those shows are pure entertainment, with skilled persons but with the problem that regular untrained persons would no be able to perform those tasks.

Bushcraft Survival Bug Out 5 Piece Kit
Keeping in mind that I will always be dressed for the environment with rain gear if needed, and will always have a level of EDC on me at all times, I had a think about the first 5 items that I might take in a Bug Out situation. IMPORTANT NOTICE: This is a conceptual excercise only and in no represents the limit to the equipment you should carry. It is purely a conceptual way of thinking about what may be important to YOU in YOUR environment and complimenting YOUR skill levels.

A nice list of what to have for outdoor survival.

Starting a Fire with Everything All Wet Materials
http://survivethewild.us/ - This is a video response to Dave Canterbury's videos about how to start fire with all wet material. I preface the video saying that I mean no disrespect, I'm just answering a question he wasn't asked yet.
Basically, I'm showing if everything, even your tinder, was soaked howto get flame and keep your fire going. There are other ways ( which I may show in future videos ), but this is one way. It is also a metal exercise in staying calm and taking your time when you must get it right and can't waste valuable time or materials.
