HECS Suits: Do They Really Work? | Joe Rogan and Forrest Galante

What kind of medication do you have to take if you're gonna go there because you have to take some anti malarial stuff right? Dude, I'm a pin cushion. Like, I've had so many shots and pills and you know like preventative obviously. I actually don't do malaria medication. I just cover up. Because it messes with your brain. I don't know if you know that. Like, they say the modern ones aren't bad, but the malarone, like you have hallucinations at night, you have crazy sweats, like especially if you're in hot sun. So I would rather be more focused, especially if I'm working with reptiles or stuff like that that can, you know, Invenomate me. So I try to stay away from it and just cover up. Wow. Is there a specific type of clothing That's like anti mosquito repellent clothing or anything like that? I just do long sleeves and some bug spray. And do you do a mask as well? No. No? That's silliness. Really? I look silly. It does look silly. No, I just do, you know, good old DEET. God, that stuff's gotta be bad for you too though, no? It melts you. Like if you get it on like say these things, It will melt the painting off the paint off of the headphones. It's so strong. Ooh, it's probably worse than the malarone. Have you ever used a thermoset? What is it called? Fucking is it called a thermoset? I think this was called. It's a device that heats up. It's got like an element inside of it and like a little bit a little canister of Gasoline and you put these sheets and it releases this very fine mist. Oh, no kind of smell and mosquitoes fucking hate it. No way. Yeah, we used it in Alberta. Huh? Alberta has very aggressive mosquitoes when they're out. Yep. When they're out, they're out. It's like clouds of them, right? Yeah, cuz only alive for like three months. It's like Alaska. You ever been Alaska? It's the worst mosquitoes I've ever seen. Crazy, right? They can like pick you up. Yeah, like there's size of pigeons and they're fucking everywhere. Totally. I went fishing with my friend Ari and we pulled up the the car and we got out of the car and we opened the car door and within seconds a swarm of mosquitoes was inside the car. It's insane. We were screaming like what the fuck? This is crazy. It's like something out of a Stephen King movie. Like there's clouds and they I yeah That's why you asked me what I'm scared of. It's that fucking clouds of mosquitoes, man. Well, we're very fortunate We don't have malaria here in the United States. Yep. Absolutely. If it made its way over here somehow, you know I am I wear this fabric. You're talking about thermos cell called hex. Oh, yeah Yes, yes, yes, exactly and I wear it for a lot of reasons because I definitely feel it helps me get closer to wildlife But I've noticed mosquitoes do not like it. Really? So that's that's one of my cover-ups. Explain what a heck suit is for People that don't know what we're talking about. Sure. So it's this Interwoven carbon grid that actually holds the body's electrical energy and capacity Like the door of microwave oven like a Faraday cage, right? And so you you naturally emit electrical energy and then when you wear this clothing It's got this conductive carbon grid and when you touch the ground or something it grounds it and releases all the energy So birds migrate using yeah, there you go Now has it been proven that this stuff actually were I mean it has been proven that it has an effect on the electrical energy That you release but has it been proven that the animals can actually recognize that electrical energy with certain animals? Yes So we know electro reception is certain wildlife is capable of it birds use it to migrate sea turtles use magnetic poles to migrate They just discovered I believe 2014 that lobsters antenna have electrical detective sensors Electroreception is the word so it's proven on some things not everything, you know our understanding of animal behavior and animal Adaptability is constantly growing so it's passive. You know what I mean? I wear it because it's a passive technology. It's like I'm gonna wear a shirt anyway Why not wear one that might or might not help so I feel it helps my friend John Dudley is a bow hunter Yeah, pretty famous bow hunter. No John. Yeah. Okay, and he swears by it. Yeah, he wears them constantly He's like it makes a big difference. I think so, you know, like I'm I'm not hunting I'm just trying to get close to stuff and interact with it or find something But I feel it makes a difference you notice a difference personally, especially with birds. I've noticed a huge difference I've noticed a huge difference in the water some mammals. I've noticed a difference But yeah, I like John I feel like it's it helps me get closer and you know, it keeps keeps the energy down Do you know what I mean? Like you're emitting all this energy you see this bear or whatever it is your heart spikes your adrenaline goes and it keeps that in Capacity so I think we sense that I think certain creatures sense that and I I like to keep that out of the equation Right the I guess it would be that there is something coming off of your body And it probably would be an advantage for animals to be able to recognize that just because we can't quantify it Right and put it on a scale or weigh it or something like that. It's probably something going on predator prey, right? like yeah, if you're a lion and I'm it I'm an antelope and My adrenaline spikes and my heart's going and you know, you're gonna come for me, right? But if that's out of the equation the energy stays reduced
