Hello my name is Lonnie and My wife is Connie.
Here at Far North Bushcraft And Survival you will learn about many long forgotten tricks and tips of the old time woodsmen. Not only will you learn about bushcraft / woodcraft but you will learn many things that will help you to survive in less than ideal "survival" situations as well. Come along and sit with me by the campfire as I delve into these subjects in a way that you can easily learn to then do yourself.
I will show you how to make shelters, gather food, use wild medicines as well as start fires with or without matches, lighters, ferro rods, etc

I remember independently discovering this as a child. I liked to split open certain rocks because they smelled funny when I did and I tossed one at night and it sparked off of something. Probably didn't take me a day before I found another rock that made it spark more often and then probably a week before I lit my first fire with it. It was magical, I felt like some sort of wizard, bending reality to my whim. Back when there was woods around here.

I used to split open stones and little rocks for fun when I was a kid. One day I found a white and rounder formed one. I split it open and it was full of crystals. It was Quarz obviously but I felt like I found some crazy treasure and continued to seek out for theese white rocks to split open. I had a huge collection of quarz crystals after a while and even though not every stone had them it was alays like finding a treasure box when I saw one of those stones. To this day I recognize them and everytime I see a Quarz Stone I want to break it open to see inside but I obviously don't do it anymore.

Ah, memories. I remember as a very little kid watching this technique done in movies. Being movies they never explained what rocks were used. Nevertheless I was completely fascinated. I spent many many hours in the yard striking all sorts of rocks together trying to make the spark. Having access to mostly flint and lime I of course never accomplished my task but it wasn't for lack of trying. It still was great fun for a pre-video games kid. I do believe yours is the first video I've come across to actually demonstrate and explain it properly. Thanks for bringing me back fond memories. ☺👍

When I was about 4 or 5 years of age, I started a fire accidentally with a Bic or similar brand lighter that was out of fuel. I went around just sparking this empty lighter at random stands of dry grass and other things. We were experiencing a drought that year which is probably why this one standing bunch of dead grass was dry enough to catch fire from just a spark. Anyway the start of this fire was so slow I didn't notice it was actually burning until after my older sister spotted the smoke on the other side of the house from where we were. Anyway that's the day I leaned not to play with lighters the hard way. The slow start on your fungus there and it starting from the little tiny sparks from your rocks took me back to that accidentally fire of mine. Maybe holding on to a used up disposable lighter in your gear isn't such a bad idea. This was a great video.

The phenomenon that you experienced with tne quartz is known as "Triboluminescence". it is a cool temperature light but can not light a fire according to the experiments I have performed with it. I even had one of my quartz rocks wet with gasoline. Though there was plenty of "sparks"/light produced, no flame. However a Tlingit native Alaskan said his dad lit a fire once on the ocean beach here in Alaska by striking two very large quartz rocks together when they needed fire while on a trip. I questioned him further but he was a young kid at the time and does not remember very well what his dad did or how he did it.

I have another video that may or may not be of interest that is along the same theme as your quest. Survival Bowdrill Fire with No Tools (no knife, no saw, no axe, no hatchet, no tools) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qcV-qrWrt9_IgHU.html In that video I did use paracord for the bowdrill cordage but in the cut and paste reply below, I explain why, as well as what and how to go about using natural cordage to accomplish the same thing. This is a copy and paste reply that I have made to address the countless number of people who have asked a similar question or made a similar comment as yours. Natural local gathered material for bow drill cordage is easy enough to find and use during the non snow months here in Alaska as you will see in the videos at the links below. You will also see another option for cordage for anytime of year besides boot strings. I swapped out my boot strings years ago for paracord. It holds up fantastic as a boot string. I explained all of that in the video recording but my video editing software screwed up on me and had to be shut down and restarted several times. So after editing the latter half of the video three different times, I got confused as to what i had in the video and what i left out. I did not realize that that part of the video was missing until after it was all uploaded and ready to go public. I had explained that I was using paracord like I use for my boot strings and I showed my boot strings. I showed stringing up the bow and I explained about clicking on the links above for learning how to use natural cordage for bow and drill if anyone was interested. Those links are located below here. If one has no tools, a sharp edged rock can be used to cut the willow bark off of the tree. Harvesting bark can only be done in the Spring through mid summer. Late summer the bark begins to adhere to the tree wood and can no longer be harvested very efficiently. Spruce roots can be used as friction fire cordage also and is easily harvested and processed without brought tools. A stick may help in digging for roots but is not necessary if digging in loose ground. See the video below for a spruce root bow drill instructional.

I always thought banging rocks together to make fire was a myth. I never looked into it because it seemed silly. I'm glad to be shown to be wrong! That was really interesting.
