Jorge Sprave of the Slingshot Channel is the MacGyver of homemade weapons. Can he build a functional crossbow out of wood that one could use to survive if necessary? Of course he can! This is Jorge we are talking about!

Starting off with dead wood, he finds elastic bands and puts together one very lethal, Flintstones-inspired crossbow. With that kind of power, defense and hunting would be possible in a pinch.

Here's a special thanks to Jorge for all the incredible weapon-making videos he shares.
