This is a demonstration of how to prepare a pair of binoculars to make fire and how to go about it in the bush. If you prepare in advance it is much easier.

Blow strong but steady. Stand with your back to
the wind if possible so you can take another breath without getting a lungful of smoke.
Cool! But how hard do you have to blow? With less force than blowing out a candle, or even less/more?
Yeah my Binoculars have special lenses that are a goldish color.
I always carry a Bic in the woods among other fire starters. The point is to learn to use what you have if it all goes south.
That is a good question. Know your binoculars, some higher end binoculars have sealed lenses with inert gas inside. I don’t think a UV protected lens would stop them from making a fire, you certainly wouldn’t look at the the sun with them!
What if the Binoculars have UV protection lenses on it like mine?
good idea i never though about using like that. If need be
would it not just be eaisier just to take a lighter ?
I don’t know. It is possible to re-light a coal from a fire pretty easily.
Would that work with a small piece of coal? Maybe with it soaked in lighter fluid?
Got way to point out that survival is about preperation before you go out in the bush. I’ve had bad luck with magnifying lenses making fire. I can make one with ever friction method and I’m faster with a ferro rod than most are with matches or a lighter. Thanks for the char cloth tip. I’ll try that. Your vids are great keep them coming. I’m not photgenic so I don’t post but you’re sharing good info.

12 killed, 10 missing in W. Va. mine blast – An explosion rocked a remote coal mine with a history of safety problems, killing 12 workers and trapping at least 10 others thousands of feet underground in the worst U.S. mine disaster since 2006.
Rescuers were making their way early Tuesday to the area where the miners were believed trapped at Massey Energy Co.’s sprawling Upper Big Branch mine, where the blast occurred around 3 p.m. Monday, said Kevin Stricklin, an administrator for
