Went out in the snow to test a new piece of equipment, the world's warmest sleeping bag from Pajak Sport.
I put new gear to the test in a new area and embrace the cold January weather

Here for the prolapse looking thumbnail.

Yep 😂
😂😂😂 yep.
It reminds me of Jim Carrey coming out of the rhino😂
Now i cant unsee it 🤣
Am i the only one laughing at that thumbnail xD.
Yeah pretty much
It made me click 🤷♂️
No :)
It made me do a double take 😂
yes you are
I'm Polish and the company that makes this sleeping bag is actually from my hometown and makes it there, so it was awesome to see it actually in action. This really made my day.
Duck motif is very epic 🦆
What part of Germany is Poland?

@@Ken-yg8vb brooo.... what?
@@dr.lukecooper1412 Poland is part of Germany since 1939. Didn't you know that?
Just want you to know that these videos literally help me and a lot of other people fall asleep. Not because your vid’s are boring but because they are satisfying and relaxing.
i find it incredibly satisfying to be in the blistering cold but being warm and protected from it, like when you jump out of the shower when you’re sick, the air and everything is freezing cold but the second you dive under that blanket and start building body heat it’s sooooo satisfying
Yeah I also do that, it’s very satisfying
Same feeling like when you tuck in to bed at home wearing warm socks
That’s what heroin feels like
agree i LOVE that feeling
Feels like hero in
Xander single-handedly keeping the stereotype of "Canadians put maple syrup on everything" alive. 😁
Lol 😂
Maple syrup goes on more stuff than people think
Lol, I'm Australian and starting to wonder if Canadian cuisine is just putting cheese, bacon and maple syrup on everything.
@@dmtaboo_truth7052when you’re camping, absolutely bud!😂
that and eating a pound of bacon with maple syrup
It bothers me that nobody else got the "two shots of vodka" joke; it was a solid 10/10.
Agree
Time stamp?

"you guys know if this is covid related"
"I almost climb that mountain, then I realized I had a drone." - Funniest thing I've ever heard😂
hes bad ass though.
You don’t get out much do you
How is that funny..
Hey Xander I'm 21 and a recovering addict. I'm working through health problems and at times it feels impossible to sustain peace. Knowing you persevere through similar battles brightens my perspective. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
You got this bro 😎

Im glad my youtube recommended this, it was quite relaxing watching the snowy scenery and the cooking.
This was so therapeutic to watch, I’m in central London right now and you gave me a magical escape. Thank you ❤️
Wish I could do this, unfortunately I'm ancient, and consider it a victory to walk 3 feet to the bathroom. Such beautiful country! I'm so glad to see you taking full advantage of your youth. Thanks for the adventure and the laughs.
What age is ancient? I'm sure you could manage to drive to some local woods for a leisurely stroll around

May you stay healthy and live long ameen
I just turned 30 and it has been my long time dream to camp like this in the heartlands of Canadian wilderness. I'm from the UK so sadly camping is very tame here. But to be somewhere everything is so quiet/isolated and you're so close to nature really appeals to my adventurous side. God bless hope you get some enjoyment through Xanders videos even if vicariously
Are you 30 years old?? 😮
You’re the only cold weather camping channel that shows a realistic amount of calories for dinner. I love it.
Outdoor Boys is another. Good skills and lots of great food.
It’s true, and you have to lol I was pretty blown away when he got to that third pizza 😂
@@marvelousmar777I agree!!
What about the toilet no one shows that reality. 😂
outdoor boys also
I love watching these videos from the comfort of my home.
26:31 the orange worm made my night. I actually laughed, you know ... actually made a sound with my mouth, not just blowing more air through my nose.
Shovel, chains, traction mats, you had enough gear to get yourself out. The other 2 components are attitude and time. Its cool how you show everything that happens on a trip good or bad, planned or unexpected. Because that's real life. Nicely done, carry on!
Nice comment!, and really didn't disagree
That was cool that you showed a “fan” at the end recognizing you. More nice when you introduced yourself and shook his hand. That’s class. Well done. I always think you are nuts camping with no tent…but that’s because I would be chicken to do the same. If there is a formula for this type of channel it seems to be 25% scenery, 25% firewood cutting, 25% cooking show, and 25% chitchat and sleeping. Yours is great because you do all of those well, and your big playful personality is always worth watching. The maple syrup on everything is weird though….lol, and I am a fellow Canadian. Keep up the good work.
You forgot the 100 percent ASMR
stop acting smart imiagneneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
This is the first time I’m watching your channel and I gotta say I absolutely love your content brother! Keep living life too the fullest and enjoy every moment you can❤
Xander u doin good things and it the things 90% wish they could do... talk about doing.. or simply can't do it.. and u give em hope and a Lil piece of joy thru ur adventures. Keep up its real out there
Polish outdoor brands specialising in Himalayan gear (like Pajak) know what they're doing - their mountaineering stuff is fantastic. Has to be, for a nation with this sort of history in the sport.
Still doesn't get anywhere near as cold as in Canada though.
@@tokiburoak7457 not to mention that -31°C comfort temp is far from the warmest sleeping bag.
Take a look at the UK brand PHD. It doesn't get any better
@@tombradshaw2000 Thanks for your comment. I didn't know the brand yet and will consider them for winter traveling.
@@ferdlhofreiter45 its hard to find a place on earth colder than -70 celsius
18:38 "I think we start with the wood" The voice of cold weather camping experience coming through. Awesome video Xander!
About the best video of this nature I have seen. Still does not make me want to camp out in the cold but the videos, and especially this one, are fun to watch. Thanks.
This video was so enjoying to watch, not only that but the recipes that came with it that ima try making at home
Your commitment to eating that amount of bacon for breakfast is way more impressive than sleeping in negative degree snow 😂.
Agreed!!🤣
it's the reason he is still alive to tell the tale lol!
Right lol
So peaceful! I always feel like there's a special kind of quiet in the snowy woods. Thanks Xander!
Xander! Words cannot describe how happy your videos make me! Enjoy the frigid snow on behalf of us stuck in hot tropical countries!
proof that thumbnails rule the internet. this thumbnail just caused you to gain a bunch of new fans such as myself!! love you bro! keep surviving!
Xander , You got big cajones to be out with no tent , trying out a new sleeping bag on the coldest night of the year. This was a beautiful trip, thank you for sharing as always. Your Charcuterie board was amazing, and the pizzas looked delicious! I always appreciate your love you dedication to great evening. Sending lots of love your way. So till next time , stay safe.
Good old Xadner Bundick. Never lets me down and provides quality Canadian entertainment with his trusty camera man Gustavo.
He is not BunDick, he is Budnick😂
@@catprotector2759 I've heard it both ways.
just found this guy from this video, & he gives me a sense of relief just knowing he’s a normal guy. doesn’t do too much for youtube just stays himself & has some comedy aswell, makes camping oook fun haha
I enjoy the fact that he doesn’t show 4 minutes cutting one log. My man’s editing is fire
One of my favorites of your videos so far Xander. Thank you for these, they have been therapeutic for me. Your hard work does not go unnoticed
Thanks for cooling us down mate, January here too 🦘but our camp the weekend just gone was overnight temp 31-38°C and 95-97% humidity with a zero breeze 🥵 *plus* two dogs sharing the swag/bedroll 🔥🐾🔥. Never again. That snow looks awesome.
Gotta love his energy ❤
One of the best video before going to sleep
Thanks for sharing this Xander. Some lovely shots of the peaceful snowfall at the beginning there. Safe travels!
You are a hearty soul Xander, and with such a positive attitude!!! I don't know if that part is just for the camera, but you have a great outlook!! Thanks for sharing your FRIGID adventure!! One thing for sure, you ate well!! Stay safe, healthy and warm!
My absolute favorite outdoors youtuber, keep the videos coming Xander!
These types of videos have saved my life in the wilderness
These are my favorite Xander videos - solo winter multinight trips. Most Xander content is awesome though :)
It’s a rainy chilly January night here in Roanoke,Va & I’ve been binge watching your videos since you released this one a few hours ago. I don’t camp like I did when I was younger so I channel camp through you, thank you so very much for providing us all good wholesome entertainment, something we desperately need these days. I think of you my bud😊Take care, stay safe & keep the videos a comin! Mike
these videos give off the best vibes
You're a beauty dude. Love yours vids. We share a common life!! Isn't it the best on this side of the fence. 🙏🙏❤️❤️
I’ve watched so many outdoor cold camping vids. Yours is the best I’ve seen , true Canadian style
I appreciate all the hard work you put into these! Thank you! My favorite part is seeing what you cook!
Definitely going to try the pizza ideas out. They all looked amazing!
The way he makes this video, or maybe for most of his videos, Idk why but I enjoyed the video to the fullest 😂, never really got bored. So cheers to the ability of this guy to be able to capture most of our attention through the video 👍
Glad you’re having such a great time! I live in Las Vegas Nv . We freeze at any temperature below 70 deg F! Thanks for sharing!
Have you've seen Jason Malone in there?
You're bringing back memories of the many frosty winters we spent during our time in Yukon. My hubby ran his dog team in the first ever Yukon Quest. Though not as well known, it's a more difficult race than the more familiar Iditarod. One of his favorite nights was spent on top of a mountain, windy with a temperature of -55C. He had no tent but put his sleeping bag on top of a caribou hide and was quite warm. Thanks for not quitting during the winter months. We'd miss your fun videos if we had to wait until spring.
The yukon quest is a training run for the Iditarod says lance mackey and dallas sevey
Boy ! you look so relax just like at home despite the weather.
I think I've found my new favorite channel. This guy's a HOOT!
The thumbnail gave me ace ventura coming out of the rhino vibes hahaha😂
Hahahaha unforgettable scene
I love watching your videos as bed time stories. The beauty of the woods, snapping fires and your cheeky comments are great. You might try whole delcotta squash instead of butternut. You can eat the skin. You might like fig jam as someone else suggested. Thanks for all your videos!
I love winter camping....when i was younger i did it a bit but wanted to do more.
Absolutely stunning scenery and shots of your campsite
How's it going Xander, watched all your videos and love every single one of them. I really appreciate all the effort you put into your videos and I have learned a lot not just about surviving in the wild but learning to love and appreciate nature and freedom. I was born and raised on a beautiful small tropical island called Saipan, in the Northern Mariana Islands and have since moved to Seattle, WA here in the United States in 2005 when I was 11 years old. Years later and I have been depressed and still struggle with Big City Living with all the craziness going on in the world, but your videos remind me of the happiness and love for being outdoors and connecting with nature as I did when I was a little boy. Thanks A lot Xander and its all starting to make sense now lol I know I might sound a little crazy, but Nature Really does help heal the mind.
Weekend and a new Xander video. Great🎉🎉
I'm actually from Poland and bought the Phantom down jacket from Pajak to support a ;local' business and I'm really impressed by how it's holding up so far. It's super warm for the size and weight (like a down jacket should be IMO) and it's my go to travel companion when I go anywhere cold. If I'm at an airport I just pack it inside the backpackand put it on after we land. Very high quality item so far (been using it for 3 years now)
You are great.. Im loving your stuff. The bestvwood holder for rhe saw..
You should invest in a Warn bumper hitch winch set up so you can use it off the front and rear of your truck. Just add a 2” receiver under the front bumper and wire 1 or 2 gauge to quick connect plugs. The second tree you cut (at the second campsite 18:45) that almost took your face off, was a textbook ‘barber chair’ break. Kills more loggers than jealous husbands 😎
You cooking better in Nature then me in my kitchen, i love it! Nice Video 😁
Yeah; these camping videos make me hungry..
This looks like a dream, you put an emphasis on the photography and the beauty of nature, every shot from this video nearly could hang on a wall, it reminds me of playing Minecraft as a kid and trying to make a base in the snowy forest. (I say that because here in Louisiana where i'm at i've had maybe 3 really good snows in my entire almost 23 years of life. And even then they don't even come nearly as close as the snow where you're at.) I'm now a sub lol
Setting all the cameras from different angles is insane. Tough work but great job. Good to get to know ur channel from recommendation.
Man, you always make the best-looking food, Xander! I live in central Kentucky, and last week, it was super cold here, too. We had low temps between -5 and -10F. High temps in the low teens, with more than 6 inches of snow. I can't imagine camping out in those temps! You're a beast, bro 💪🥶
It was indeed cold, the snowstorm a couple weeks back hit Richmond pretty hard. Was a fun time though!
I like the editing where you show the last slice before the log falls… honestly I watch a lot of camping videos and I get a bit tired of seeing guys endlessly sawing and chopping wood in every one of them! Awesome camp!
Enjoyed video Xander from my couch in So Calif under my blanket ! Lol you rock dude ! Food looked great-im thinking huge sweet potato next time ha !
Xander is being birthed by the prolapse sleeping bag.
2 things: 1: thanks for including you getting the 4Runner out…I would have been bummed to not see how that went. 2: thanks for getting the 4Runner. While it only makes little appearances right now, I can’t wait for more road-trip/camping content in it.
Wild, we slept there the following night and wondered who was brave enough to do the same. Fun!
Props too you man cause that’s terrifying sleeping in the middle of nowhere. thank you for keeping us entertained. One your many viewers who watches this at 3 am on a work night that can’t sleep *😂
Bouncing between this channel and Outdoor Boys. Great, wholesome content.
Would love to experience winter camping just once in my life looks wonderful. Great video Xander
I'm from India , and I always watch your videos before sleeping, love you bro🤗🤗
lets go!
That sounds like an awesome adventure! It must have been really exciting to explore the woods, sleep under the stars and enjoy some delicious food in the forest.
that's really cool with the sleeping bag. and you seem really good at being out in the wild. I do think it's funny how you talk up -20 degrees weather because out where I live (Minnesota prairie) that can just be the norm for all of December. Still blisteringly cold tho. Props. (edit. just checked the units. I was talking about Fahrenheit not Celsius. them's chump numbers.)
the world doesn't work alone, kindness still is alive, that's good to know!
DUDE! 1.1 MILL views! UNREAL! What an episode, what a reception! Congrats man! EPIC.
The legend himself
I don't camp, and I certainly don't camp in *cold* cold climates, but I definitely know what sleeping bag to get if I want to - and now I kind of want to! 😂❤
Дешевле и безопасней будет взять печку pomoly за 500$ и палатку к ней за 150$. Итого 650$ и спать в такой палатке вы сможете на летнем коврике и под летним спальником квилтом, а не покупать спальник за более чем 1000$ и к нему самый дорогой коврик термарест 250$, т.к. весь холод идёт от земли и вы будете вынуждены купить самый теплый коврик на 6 rvalue. Итого минимум 1250$ за комплект, когда вам будет тепло ТОЛЬКО пока вы спите! Как только вы вылезли из спальника весь холод будет ваш!
@@slava54321 Good point!
Camera quality is crazy work 👌🏿😮💨
Greetings from Poland Xander! I love your videos man. I find them so inspirational and calming. Definitely going to spend a night out in the wild this year!
This is so pretty. Someday I wish to experience snow 😊
It's very peaceful and pretty. But then it gets really old after a while 😂
@@jeremiahallyn4603especially when your car gets stuck!😅
When I was younger and before I destroyed my back and knees I used to camp here in northern Illinois during the winter and it didn't matter what the temps were. I loved my adventures and miss being able to do so with my kids
I once got to ride with some pro snowmobile riders in deep snow.. that day I learned that there is no such thing as completely stuck. There is always some way to dig your vehicle out of sticky situation ^^. It's nice to have that confidence. Of course it might need more digging if it's badly stuck but there is always a way out.
I can't believe how much grub that you can put away brother, as always enjoy watching the videos
He's got to replenish all those calories he burns cutting wood and getting his camp set up. If I ate as much as Xander does, I'd be as big as a barn 😂🤣
Ребят мне 38 лет, я при росте 185см и весе 91кг пошёл в однодневный поход, т.к. замёрз ночью (было 0 градусов цельсия). Так вот, когда я пришёл на место, то просто ходил по 1-2 км туда и обратно вдоль берега, чтобы собрать по нему старые кирпичи, чтобы сделать костёр (обложить его), был сентябрь, я приехал туда к 12:00 и 5 часов таскал по ~4 кирпича к своему лагерю, весом ~10-15кг, пару кирпичей в маленьком рюкзаке за спиной и пару в руках и сгорбившись медленно шёл. Под вечер я не особо устал, но вот я люблю взвешиваться и взвесился перед уходом в 9:00 утра и приехал обратно на следующий день и встал на весы ровно в 12:00 дня и я весил на 4 килограмма меньше! Я весил 87кг! И это учитывая, что я закончил походный сезон, и за лето походов я и так сбросил максимально веса! Все комментарии, которые тут люди пишут про вес и кол-во еды, просто всё это диванные походники, которые ни разу в поход-то не ходили. Я за сутки сбросил 4 килограмма, хотя не почувствовал уж слишком усталым, просто шёл от электрички (координаты 60.126679, 31.065806) 3 км до лагеря с рюкзаком 27 килограмм и обратно и ходил весь день по берегу собирая кирпичи. Был вот тут, координаты 60.175924, 30.989597 живу в городе Санкт-Петербург.
Imo the fjällräven polar -30 bag is superior in design to this. The fur covering the face area is really amazing for stopping the wind getting in. And also cheaper (in Sweden at least) 1420 of 800fp vs 1050 900fp in size large. So id imagine the theoretical warmth to be similar. But as you say, if the baffles suck then that will diminish any perceived benefits from the higher quality down. I'd highly recommend the fjällräven sack. I've used it here in northern Sweden down to minus 38 paired with an exped dura 6 and some foam mats under the open sky with light wind. I've also heard good things about the thermarest polar ranger.
Вы думаете он сам выбирает себе спальники? Т.к. он популярен, его заметила именно эта фирма и решила подарить или дать на прокат этот спальник, чтобы он его прорекламировал (в описании только одна ссылка и только на этот спальник. Во многих других видео он оставляет ссылки на всё своё снаряжение, а когда ролик рекламный, он как правило оставляет только спонсорскую ссылку. Учитесь думать головой!). Конечно если сам ксандер или его друзья намекнут ему именно про спальник лисы, то если он напишет им, возможно они ему его предоставят, но какие будут условия (по договору только хвалить марку, иначе не дадут спальник и т.д.) не известно! Одно понятно, что он это не покупал и поэтому не стоит так критично относиться к его тесту и претензиям. У него есть свои личные спальники "mec" летний и зимний. У него куча спонсорской снаряги, водолазный костюм "six level", очки и т.д.
It's been 7 months since the last Xander video that I've watched. Glad to be back xD
This guy is soo chill
So, how to prevent smokey the bear from rolling up on you in your sleep?
This takes me way back. I used to have so much fun winter camping in Boy Scouts.
props to the camera, footage looks beyond realistic 🔥
That sleeping bag looks like a massive prolapse

Note to self: prepare the fresh ingredients ahead of time because they’re gonna be frozen anyway.
The Butternut squash with those toppings sound wonderful. You need to roast them in foil with oil like a baked potato to get them to cook all the way through. Using just foil isn’t enough because the rind is not as permeable. A couple pats of butter would work perfect and be portable.
Keep doing what ya doing bro it's pretty cool.
Basic rule, Don't wear too many layers clothes when sleeping in a sleeping bag. You may take some of those clothes inside the bag over night, so those are warm in morning.
Tip for winter camping (from someone thats been in the military in the north): try to wear as little clothes inside the sleeping bag as possible. I see youre wearing multiple layers which dont really work with the bag. Just wear a slim base layer and let the sleeping bag do its work, you dont need your jacket inside it
Xander, please try this; this would be interesting experiment on back to back nights with the same bag and similar temperatures.
That is counter intuitive and against the laws of physics. If you want to be warmer, you want more layers, not less. The sleeping bag is just another layer of insulation, similar to clothing. Your advice would be good, if you just wanted to warm up the sleeping bag for some reason, but that's not the point. The point is to stay warm yourself. I do agree that in those temps, with the new bag he should be just fine in only base layer.
@@Oemssibut this is what you can also find in lots of videos as well as sleeping bag manuals - wear a base layer, warm yourself before entering the sleeping bag (eg. by tightening your muscles) and if needed, use a chemical warmers or a bottle with hot water. They do not advise multiple layers cause you will sweat = produce moisture = get wet = get cold 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah, all that is good advice. If you wear too many layers and start to sweat, that is not good for the insulating properties of the sleeping bag. But still, the principle more layers = more warmth applies. If you do all that and are still cold, more layers will provide more warmth, not less.@@Dexter00000
Beautifully filmed and edited
"over.... ten hours" LOL. Another great video, and great skills... as usual ;) It'd be interesting to get Wiggy and the people from Pajak in the same room "discussing" about their claims hehe
I said it before and ill say it again... This is a man's man. BDE all over him. I just... He is so damn awesome.
