Pratica di Shadowing: Ice Cooled Tent Camping - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Hey guys, welcome to Camping with Steve.

I'm going to try to cool off this tent today with 150 pounds of ice.

So let's get some ice.

So we were able to get about 140 pounds of ice.

The first piece of the pie was to assemble this normal consumer grade, over the counter street legal tent.

Nothing special about it.

And then to wait for a warm day day.

Step B was to cut holes in these styrofoam lids.

Now believe me you did not want to hear that happening so I have not included that footage.

Third part of the mystery is flexible dryer vent.

My original scheme was to have these coolers attached all together human centipede style

and then just going into the tent

and I realized that's going to put this thing at like 100% humidity in no time

which is not much better than sweltering in the heat.

What I'm going to do instead is snake one continuous hose through like a heat exchanger

and then the air itself never touches the ice.

The ice will cool the air and the air will cool me.

I'm only using four chambers on the top for the active cooling part.

The rest on bottom just hold extra ice as it is going to melt.

So I've lined some on the bottom.

I'll dump more in here to kind of surround this vent

and it's not as efficient as having one large cooler

but I just could not find a large cooler I was willing to cut holes in.

Those are the pricey kind.

I know what everybody's thinking.

Why not just take a five-gallon pail full of ice and put it in the tent with a fan blowing on it?

Well, five-gallon pail doesn't hold a whole lot.

And the humidity, right?

And this looks way cooler.

Now we just got to pipe it into the tent.

so I know everybody's wondering oh Steve that's wasteful

but these were some old styrofoam coolers a friend was going to throw away

and I'm giving them a second life

and unfortunately it's really hard to get polystyrene in styrofoam form recycled

so this is giving it a new life

and hopefully this proves the concept so

that I can build a more permanent solution

so this is known as a prototype to my surprise

and amusement there is an access for storing boots in this tent that opens right to the inside.

So I can have a supply

and return air without bringing warm outside air through this whole cooler because that'll melt the ice in no time.

I'm going to circulate the cold air in there and it is a tent so there's screens on it.

It's not really going to contain all that air but it'll contain it better than drawing hot steaming air from the outside.

I got my supply air up here

and I got my return air down here

and I'm just going to use one of these USB powered

fans attached to a Fernco to blow the air out of here

and it should go right through this and right back in nice

and cooled up on this side even though it looks sloppy

where I sealed up around the coolers this is one continuous piece of vent

so there won't be any air leakage there shouldn't

and i got to turn this on

because this flower is wilting it's a a little bit hot for this tender canadian okay

so here goes nothing it's a bit of a delicate connection so

We're getting a little bit of air movement out of the other side.

So far, that's better than none.

Right now, our supply air is at 72-ish Fahrenheit, about 22 degrees Celsius.

That's the air that's coming in through here.

And the return air is sitting at around 80, 81.

And so we're getting about 8 degrees, 9 degrees Fahrenheit of delta T or temp drop, which is not good for an AC.

So I'm going to make a few tweaks, but first things first.

Considering I'm filming this on Cinco de Mayo, one of these margaritas.

10% going to have to ration this.

I picked a spot that's pretty much in as much shade as I can get.

We're gonna have a little bit of sunshine here

but then it should be gone this evening and it's not that hot of a day I understand.

82, 83, that's a joke for a lot of people but for this Canadian may as well be 150.

At a certain point it doesn't matter but I gotta find a way to make this work.

I don't think the current setup is gonna do much.

We're getting a little bit of Delta T

but not a lot of airflow that's just a tiny USB

fan about 10 watts at best I think maybe 15

and this venting could be a lot shorter because there is restriction

but I do think that once the ice starts to melt

and there is water in contact with this there'll be a lot more thermal transfer coming through this venting

and another trick up my sleep I got one of those

things of ice cream salt I'm making ice cream makes the

ice colder I chose to do it in compartments like this

because that would give me more ice volume

if I could get one big cooler

and run this through it without destroying a Yeti

or something I'd probably do that

but we are losing some BTUs through these pipes here I can feel

that they're cold but we'll monitor the situation

and adjust accordingly well okay I'm not getting the cooling

that I want I let it faster for a bit and we're getting like

74 Fahrenheit there you know 23 Celsius not adequate

and I know the problem there's a bunch of problems here we're gonna fix them

and make this thing nice

and cool instead of slowly shortening this I know what the

problem is we got 40 feet of very restrictive venting here that is just not possible with a 10 watt fan.

So I'll take one of these

and we're gonna put some salt in it to get it extra cold

and we'll just run that short segment in there and see how cold we can get our air coming out.

It just means changing ice more often which I was avoiding

because overnight I kind of wanted a system that would just go

and keep it a little cool

but a tent like has an R value of negative five

because there's screens on it it doesn't hold anything in what

100

you need is some cool air blasting right at you

101

and we're gonna figure that out this little cooler here looks like a good contender and we'll just take this with us

102

Now, people aren't following on Facebook.

103

I am in the U.S right now because we came down for Lindsay's Granny's birthday.

104

And I don't stealth camp around here because I'm uncomfortable enough in my own home country,

105

let alone as an alien vacationer in an area with capital punishment.

106

So we don't want to push any boundaries or break any unnecessary laws.

107

So we're going to try this.

108

This one's good and loaded with ice.

109

And let's get this in the tent and see what we can do.

110

The whole purpose of putting this outside of the tent in the beginning was

111

that it wouldn't all fit inside and trying to keep the moisture down.

112

I had a last minute brainwave of putting a continuous pipe through it,

113

but it's just too much pipe for this little fan.

114

this battery pack

115

that was running the fan let it run for a little

116

bit hung around for an hour outside this thing's about 90%

117

charge still this will actually provide some cooling yeah I'm getting some airflow here for sure

118

and And we'll let this stabilize and we're going to take some temperatures.

119

Obviously much better already.

120

Obviously much better, but temperature drop is only one part of the equation.

121

Because you need CFM.

122

You need some air movement.

123

You need some velocity.

124

and we've got it this is feeling much much better I'll

125

let it sit for a bit I've got an indoor outdoor thermometer

126

that we can leave here to see what it's going to equal out to in here

127

I think it's going to get a lot better when most of that ice melts and it's an ice Water slurry,

128

and this is running through Indoor-outdoor setup.

129

I'm gonna put the outdoor part outdoors

130

I've lost a ton of these indoor outdoor things doing these videos This exact way I forget them in the morning

131

There we go.

132

It's right about tent level and oh was I raising a barn?

133

Holy moly.

134

Let it cool down.

135

with just the ice of that cooler we've got an indoor temp of 75

136

and an outdoor of 78 and to switch

137

that to Celsius it's we got outside is 26 inside is

138

24 not the way I like to sleep generally I like to sleep about 15 Celsius

139

or 65 Fahrenheit

140

so this isn't gonna work at all we're gonna have to

141

pump this up a little bit put a little bit of ice cream salt

142

let's see if that does anything

143

so the secret spice seems to be putting some salt in it and here yeah it's

144

still just a couple degrees off in here between 78 and 76 inside or still 26 to 24.

145

I'm gonna let this marinate in here for a little bit.

146

This is what we're cooking on.

147

I know there's not a fire band because people have been burning huge piles of lumber.

148

That looks pretty good.

149

I should have read the instructions.

150

Um, okay, so, ta-da!

151

Oh, it's hot!

152

It's burning me!

153

And now we wait.

154

Now, I used one of these before in one of my videos, and it took a while to act...

155

Okay, that's right in my face.

156

Hold on, I'll move.

157

I've used one of these before, and it took a while for it to actually be ready to cook.

158

And, uh, that's okay, because we've got a couple of other pieces of cooking instrumentary

159

that we're going to whip out here happy Cinco de Maya it's over now

160

but I'm filming it during came in for the cooking stuff

161

and what do I see here that looks good to me it is 70 Fahrenheit in here 78 outside which translates to

162

26 and 21.

163

Not bad in my books.

164

We've got a wonderful 64-ish on the supply air, which is fantastic.

165

That's exactly what I would love.

166

Blowing a lot more in my face.

167

Blowing in my face.

168

That took some time to warm up, but that's okay.

169

Okay, put some chicken on there.

170

Judging by the intense lack of sizzle, this grill is not great.

171

That chicken is smoldering there a little bit.

172

I don't think that's going to cook good on that grill.

173

Which is why I think 10 problems ahead.

174

cast iron pan and some propane used to be a favorite recipe of mine to just dump in a bunch of

175

onions and peppers basically I do that throw in some chicken

176

some salsa and I can either eat that on rice or in a tortilla or something like that

177

Somebody should invent a meal like that.

178

Oh, this dismal chicken.

179

It's not good.

180

Normally, fajitas...

181

Oh, how is that burning my hand yet sticking to the grill?

182

What the heck is that?

183

Like, getting a break.

184

Okay.

185

The two shoe second rule.

186

Alright, alright, alright.

187

Okay.

188

Not too much of it touched my shoe, and my shoe is sanitary.

189

Mexican rice with corn.

190

We're as easy as possible.

191

Oh, that's unappetizing.

192

Shard of glass.

193

Okay, well, that's whatever we made here.

194

And here you go, babe.

195

Oh, thanks, love.

196

It's hot, it probably needs to cool down.

197

It looks delicious.

198

I've eaten worse.

199

Ants!

200

I knew it.

201

I hear there's no sugar around here.

202

Alright, still pretty hot outside.

203

This little cooler in here has done really good um we

204

still got a lot of ice left oh now we're talking that's what i mean

205

the salt makes a huge difference

206

and we've still got a little ice left in there actually feels very comfortable in here versus outside

207

so i'll take that as a win and i'm gonna hunker down i guess

208

because uh you know we still got some ice left in there

209

and 40 left on that uh little power bank okay

210

that guys will see you in the am and uh let's see what goes from there

211

it's nice and cool in here that's all I can say

212

morning everybody oh I'm not ready to go

213

and face the world oh there's a bug on me okay yeah

214

so the biggest problem is there's like zero our value in a tent I can literally see the ground outside through there.

215

So it doesn't even hold the air in, let alone insulate whatsoever.

216

But it's always good to camp.

217

And yeah, with enough ice, it makes a difference.

218

That's absolutely for sure, 100%.

219

But, you know, we're talking 100 plus pounds of ice.

220

Which, on a hot day, might not sound so ridiculous.

221

especially at three bucks for 20 pounds um

222

so yeah we did actually manage to cool it off quite

223

successfully with a lot of leftover ice you know i'm just gonna get up

224

and uh i'll start this beloved day uh and maybe have an antacid pill because that margaritas hit me today Oh wow,

225

even these ones that didn't do a whole lot are getting pretty well empty or half melted, mostly melted.

226

Sweet.

227

But yeah, this is the culprit.

228

Can't keep cool in a tent without any insulation.

229

That gives me an idea for a project though.

230

But I'm going to leave the tent set up because we're going to be back here at Granny's.

231

And one, I like sleeping outside.

232

Two, there's no spare rooms in the house.

233

And three, it's beautiful.

234

So that solves all the problems right there.

235

Possibly a tornado tonight, they're saying.

236

So I got it pegged down real good.

237

I don't ever use the guy wires on the fly, but I did today.

238

Because we don't want any problems.

239

Big F5 with suction power.

240

and uh yeah uh that's that's what i got for for this video heading back to canada very soon

241

and if all goes well uh i got a couple of pretty cool spots i want to check out

242

and uh it's in the stealthy variety

243

so uh we'll be stealth maxing in no time uh thanks everybody for watching

244

and we'll see you on the next one

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
