Good Stuff I wish he would have lit himself on fire just to show not to dump the buring fuel

There's a great illustration for the value of information on the web. There's a lot of it, but it's not always good.

Blow the whistle...get him out of the gene pool!

In another life I was close to a young woman who had burn scars on her leg from her waist to below the knee. Her father had done similarly stupid things involving a grill and charcoal lighter... I don't know what, but something should be done to people like that.

Nice rustling, dry leaves in the background.:rolleyes:

OMG!!!! Hopefully he'll blow himself up before he has a chance to reproduce.

At his age, I'd say he's already reproduced... Never mind blowing himself up (the stupid never do anyway, they hurt innocent bystanders instead), he's going to cause forest fires.

One of the first and last things he says is how much people don't like to be near him in the woods. :rolleyes:

He kept dragging the stove back towards them too!

I kept thinking "Oh Boy, here it comes".

Probably wiped his arse with it and put some leaves on top of it thinking it would decompose. What an idiot:rolleyes:

Not when he has just come up with the Altiod Stove(hi hi)
The guy might have blown himself up by now.
He sounded like a jerk, as well as an idiot.

I need to make him an Altoid StarLyte stove to convert him over to alcohol and get him away from those canister stoves. The guy is dangerous!!!!!!!!!

Sam, it's in the mail tomorrow 73.

Guys! I can't believe y'all are so harsh. I think his video was great.

I'd like to see his instructions on more types of outdoor equipment, like orienteering, knife sharpening, Coleman lantern lighting, chainsaw operation ... MORE, MORE, MORE!

I can't wait for his rappelling instructions.

Seriously(yes, I know it's hard to believe), I've long thought it would be fun to video some satirical sketches, along the lines of Mad TV, spoofing various backpacking skills.

Better get busy before this fella grabs more market share!

I believe Lil Red has a good story about a girl hiker who set everything on fire with her stove fuel. Tell it Red.

that looks like me the first time I ever used my Whisperlite stove :eek: .
I only used it one other time after that. Switched to canister then alcohol stoves.
One day I may go back and try the Whisperlite stove again

It does take a little practice to get just right. You can waste a lot of fuel too.

Funny stuff.


Zelph, you can see them 'cause the photos are linked from your e-mail program, i.e, they're on your computer. Others can't see them unless you upload them to a website that they can access.
