If you are on the move; hiking, camping, cycling, or mountaineering a Hippo Roller is not the choice. But, if you are in a fixed location, with access to water and have no means to transport the water in a grid down scenario, then the Hippo Roller is perfect.
There is an interesting approach developed in Africa for transporting large amounts of water from water bodies to the villages with minimal effort. The device that they have developed is called a Hippo Roller. The barrel is uprighted and the filler cap is opened enabling the barrel to be filled by either submerging it or pouring the water into the filler hole. Once the barrel is full, the cap is replaced, the barrel is placed on its side, the handle attached and the barrel is either pushed or pulled to the final destination.
