Hunting Ants and Drinking Muddy Water episode 14

Obtaining clean and safe drinking water is a high priority in any survival situation. It is a good idea to carry a filter when spending time in the wilderness but in the case that a filter is not available, what primitive techniques can be used to filter natural water as a first step in the disinfection process? In this video I explore one very simple filtration technique and then weather conditions interrupt my efforts. Nonetheless, I collected the muddy river water and did my best to make it safe. According to the research I’ve done and personal experience, boiling natural water will make it safe to drink, however, the potential presence of heavy metals or chemicals, which are not neutralized by boiling alone, may be present in the water and make it unsafe if consumed during a long period of time. In this video I also snacked on raw ants as a nutritious snack. This series will be ongoing so be sure to stay tuned for the next video. *Turn on captions to see subtitles in other languages. *Please subscribe an
