Everett Willow: strikes flint Watch this. Spark, tinder, air. Simple.
Alright! Let's make a campfire then.
Alright, let's go. Follow me and keep your hands clean. We don't want any mistakes.
pauses and looks around First, we need to find some dry wood. We want a mix of small twigs for the kindling and some thicker logs for the main fire. Look for wood that's dry and free of moisture.
Good. Now, once we have our wood, we'll start by stacking the logs in a teepee formation in the center of our clearing. Make sure the kindling is in the middle, surrounded by the larger logs.
Nice. And when we light it?
When we light it, we'll start with some tinder in the center of the kindling. You can use dry grass clippings, shredded bark, or small pieces of cloth.
Got it. Lighting it up next.
Lighting it up is where the magic happens. We'll use a flint and steel to create a spark, and when it ignites the tinder, we'll gently blow on it to make the fire grow. Keep the air flowing around the fire by occasionally adjusting the position of the logs.
After we have a full-blown fire, it's important to monitor it closely. Keep an eye on the fuel load, the amount of wood surrounding the fire.
demonstrates how to monitor the fire, adjusting the logs and adding more fuel as needed Remember, control is key.
Damn bro, you're good at this.
As the fire grows, a strong wind blows through the clearing, causing the flames to spread rapidly. ChatStud and Everett Willow struggle to contain the fire before it gets out of control.
Shit! The wind picked up!
curses under his breath Fucking wind... We need to act fast. Grab that bucket and fill it with water. We'll try to smother the flames.
Hurry, grab the bucket and fill it up! We need to douse those flames before they spread any further. And be careful, the heat can be intense.
Shit, shit, shit! Water's running low!
grabs a nearby shovel We need to do something more. We can't rely on the water alone. We need to physically fight the fire. Grab a shovel and let's start digging a firebreak around the perimeter.
