Fire Starter Extraordinaire | Dirty Rotten Survival

Now we'll find out if Dave really is the fire-making Maestro he claims to be. Depending on your environment and your resources, a very, very difficult challenge. I'm going to use everything that Dick and Johnny have in their kits, as well as what I have in mind to make it happen.

We have an electrical ignition method here with this torch, so that's one guaranteed fire. We have a sparking method with the other torch, so there's two of the six. If you count a transfer, which means you're using one fire to light another fire, that's three of six. It'll take less than 30 seconds. We only need three volts of electricity and a thin piece of the steel wool to light a whole pad of the steel wool into a burning mound of molten metal. We have twice that in this battery. It's also going to give us a fire because we'll be able to put Tinder inside here, just like you were lighting a cigarette, with a parabolic lens pointing the sun directly at that Tinder source and lighting it on fire and into a bird nest.

So we're going to get two fires out of this flashlight with this magnifying glass, which is going to give us another method with solar magnification. Cool, let's do it. On your call, Buddy, go!

Oh, we started! Alright, there's one. That is two. That is three! Oh, that's so sweet! That one, I love that one! Love that! [Music] One minute, forty-nine seconds. Three fires down. Good job! One minute, come on, come on, Davey, that's four! Come on, Davey, you're golden! Yeah, done! [Music] How many is that? Five! Sickle, sickle, sickle! There's transference. Yeah, yeah, I thought, I thought! Yeah, baby, six!

He's not stopping! Oh, twenty-five seconds! Is he not stopping? Ladies and gentlemen, if we see smoke, I might give you a half! Come on, D! Six and a half! Smoke counts! Where's this smoke? This fire time? What is that? What was the last one that came out of the right field? Burnt through the bottom of the Mouse Trap board! Oh yeah, six minutes! Six fire, six minutes! That puts me sitting around the fire tonight, not talking about picnic pants. Thank you, Dave!

Alright, yep. A bet to bet! Time for bed! A, let's clean up these fires, boys! Good night, guys! Good night, mie! Good night, Dave! Look at that, that's a beer commercial fire!
