Signal:
As I've been living in the rainforest for a while I've already know how to make fire, so this method is very simple because fire is de vital thing for this tactic.
Go to a high place and not so round of trees. When you found THAT place it comes the second thing for this grat method!
You have to cut a big size of your shoe's sole with your knife and burn it into fire.
That would create a very gray/black smoke that would make other people watch it and make them think that there is something or someone.
You need, a bit of fire but also a LOT of luck.
