Watch This Amazing Survivalist Build A Primitive Hut From Scratch

If you were stranded in the wilderness with no tools, fire, or shelter, would you be able to survive? After watching this amazing video, you just might have a chance.

This skilled survivalist certainly knows how to take care of himself, and uses the natural resources around him to construct a shelter that comes with a fireplace, chimney, and bed.

A true survivalist can build this kind of shelter from scratch, with no pre-made tools to start. The first step is to create an ax by knapping one rock against another.

Rows of large leaves are then strung together to form a layered roof for protection from the sun and rain.

Mud is packed onto a framework of branches to create solid walls.

A fireplace is added inside for warmth and cooking.

After scurrying up a tree, bark is gathered to further weather-proof the hut’s roof.

And of course, no home would be complete without a chimney. This mud construction directs smoke from the interior fire up and away from the hut.

Awesome!
