Forum Wide Challenge - fire starting

[Scythe13]

Today (you'll love this) I'm teaching my Scout group to make fire without matches!

Oh yeah!!!

This will be a fun one. I'm basically teaching them to use a flint and steel, but I'll also be teaching them to think about different fuel types and about how to use a spark from anything possible.

I'll upload a load of videos or photos of scouts making fire! If they can do it, NOBODY on this forum has an excuse to even TRY.

Try and fail.....is not the attitude to take. Failure is not real! Failure is something we learn as adults. If we don't learn something straight off, we seem to quit. But that's a learned behaviour. We never had that as children! How many times did you fail when you first tried to walk. How many attempts until you tell a child to stop trying?

I'm not asking anyone on here to succeed. I'm challenging everyone to try!
