Cape Town – This Aussie dude has a YouTube channel in which he shows off his survival skills using only primitive technology. 

His channel appropriately named, Primitive Technology, started out small but has since become a full-blown viral hit with some of his videos getting well over 8 million views. 

In the short clips the bloke makes things in the wild completely from scratch using no modern tools or materials.

Although he doesn’t live in the woods he ventures into the wild in Far North Queensland, Australia to create these oddly addictive to watch videos.

Let’s just say if you ever get stranded on an island on a well-known reality TV show – then this is the guy you want on your side.
