Dressed for Survival with Jesper Hede
Our very good friend and colleague Jesper Hede has gotten his very own program series on TV2 East.
In the program series, Jesper shows us how to manage in nature and how outdoor skills are extremely important in other situations, for example in a crisis.
Most of the gear Jesper uses, we have gathered for you below, so you can be sure to get equipment that works.
You will find links to the programs further down.

The basic needs in order:
Shelter
Fire / Warmth
Water
Food
Dressed for Survival (2) – Nature’s Pantry
Jesper has gone to the coast, where he focuses on how to obtain clean drinking water, what to watch out for regarding pollution, and which methods you can use to make the water safe to drink.
In addition, Jesper shows which edible things you can find by the coast.
Dressed for Survival (3) – A Poop in the Forest Floor
In episode 3, emphasis is placed on how to maintain good hygiene – both with dishwashing and also how to go to the toilet in a primitive way.
Another very important thing Jesper talks about is first aid.
Dressed for Survival (4) – Avoid Going Crazy
Survival is largely about maintaining a positive mindset and improving the situation – whether it’s making a chair or improving your surroundings in other ways.
As usual, Jesper gives tips and tricks on how to keep your mental flag flying high.
