This channel is about building shelters,sometimes cooking,sometimes fire making, sometimes making machetes or axes, always having fun! Now, a little about me. I am not a survival expert, I dont have a survival school, Im not on TV, I was never in the military, I dont have a business nor do I sell products. Im just an average working guy that likes Bushcraft, camping and making a lot of my own gear. I make videos for youtube as a hobby and its the most fun Ive ever had.

A tag has been placed on User:Funinthewoods, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Babitaarora ^{(talk/contribs)} 08:56, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
