"Just as man's physical survival depends on his own effort, so does his psychological survival." -Ayn Rand- "Man is the one living species who is able to reject, sabotage and betray his means of survival : his mind." -Nathaniel Branden- "At any moment, and across any lifetime, the choice is always either/or: either follow your reasoning mind, or abandon it and place something above it. There is no “middle-of-the-road.” -Peter Schwartz-
I am disabled and use a wheelchair to get around. Recently a friend's brother, who is also a paraplegic, ran off the side of a road in Upstate NY and was stranded in his car for 3 days. He had his survival kit and was able to keep warm, hydrated, he had food, and his regular meds with him. After hearing that story I have started assembling my own emergency survival kit for my car. Thanks for some great tips on things to include in my kit. I hope I never have to use it but it's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it. Thanks for sharing your faith as well. God bless you brother.
I'm also in a wheelchair, from a motorcycle accident 4 yrs ago. I'm interested in the whole bugging in vs bugging out, prepper, SHTF topic. I watched one on RUclips about who would be the first to die in a disaster scenario. They had people with mobility issues very high on the list. I don't take it as an insult, it's just reality. I think it all depends on where it happens and what kind of disaster it is. There's a great book called One Second After that explores the aftermath of an EMP strike. It is very believable and it got me started on this. I've got a van and if I was on the road I want to make sure that I have some emergency supplies on board. I have to use a catheter so I want to make sure I always have at least one of those on me. Otherwise I'd have to end up doing more than syphoning gas! I do have that kind of medical stuff that I keep in my van but I need to add more. If something happened if I was at home, I would be much better supplied. If it was a case that required us to have to evacuate the home I think I'd be hooped. Unless it was something like a flood or fire, I would send my family out and try to hunker down and stay in the house myself. I want to make sure I am well supplied and also equipped to fend off looters. If it was an evacuation situation I'd still send my family off on their own, so as not to be slowed down dragging me along, and do my best to survive. I'm healthy and in pretty good shape but as you know it doesn't take much to block your movement when you're stuck in a chair. I'm waiting for someone to invent the wheelchair that has x-country, underwater and flying capabilities!
One of the best parts of this video that stuck out to me was at roughly 8:50. Not only did you have beef jerky to feed the body but you had The Word to feed your Soul.
"Everything man needs has to be discovered by his mind and produced by his effort." -Ayn Rand- " Man's mind is his basic means of survival, his only means of getting knowledge. " -Ayn Rand-
One thing I learned in the Marine Corps when it comes to changing your socks (if you're rucking it for awhile or you come into contact with some water) it's good to keep at least two in a plastic bag with both pairs turned inside out, pouring in some baby/foot powder, and shaking it all around. Believe me, this stuff REALLY helps!
Thanks for the tips... as a 17 y/o I lived in Ellsworth/Trenton, Maine, it was the best 8 months of my life. Lived in a small wood cabin (8X10), wood stove, no electricity or running water and for 2 of those months strictly hunted/fished for my dinner. It's funny, today we are so aware of this gear that we absolutely need, when back then, not that it wasn't important, you just had the necessities and that was it... you went out and did it.
WOW! A kind and reasonable person who can disagree without being nasty! So refreshing. Thanks for the comment, Carter. Shoot me an e-mail at everydaytacticalvids@gmail.com when you get a chance.
@joe Recto That's about the dumbest thing I have ever heard. How do you think man came into existence, we surely did not just pop into existence out of nowhere without the power of God, and we surely did not come from monkeys either. How do you think Heaven and the earth was created, in Genesis 1:1, the Bible says "in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Can you explain how the waters of the Red Sea were parted and the Israelites walking on dry ground where there is normally water. The Bible is the history of the ancient world.
I like how you included a Bible. A lot of people assume that Christians expect God to save them from every situation and that we don't believe in action or preparation which is very sad. Nice video!
John Fisher That is not true, but I suppose you believe that. Bible thumpers and guns go hand in hand. I wonder if any christian believes that god can save them? It seems by your statement that you think you can handle yourself with out him/her/or it. Good video seems to be a well thought out emergency bag.
I have been prepping a short time and I came across your vid, i appreciate the detailed review of all the items to consider when planning to put a bag of this category together. I'm new to prepping and found your review very helpful. The Bible is definitely fundamental in keeping focus during extreme chaos, enjoyed the thorough but insightful review thx.
Good video. Nice kit. Got me thinking about adding a thing or two to my kit. A few things I note about your kit. This is a car kit, and I would argue that being such it's missing a few things especially since you are in a cold environment. First, candles. 6 hour emergency candles usually come in a three or four pack. If you slide off the road in a snowstorm and disable your engine/run out of gas these things will keep the interior of your car much, much warmer. Just make sure you open the door a smidge from time to time because CO poisoning would suck. We're talking keeping the interior of your car above freezing with just one even when it's single digits outside the car. Burning a few and you can keep it around 40F or maybe higher. Really nice in a blizzard where help is hours or even a day away. Also related to cold, your batteries are all alkaline. Replace those with Lithium batteries. Alkaline batteries are killed by cold, Li-Ion batteries are not. The last thing you want is for your lights to die, need batteries and none of them work. Once those batteries are subjected to serious cold, warming them will bring them back to some extent, but never to full life. Plus, if they get really cold and freeze, they can burst and make a serious mess that can melt through your plastic case and/or cause some chemical burns. On the medical side, I would add two things to your kit. First, tourniquets, at least two. If you're preparing to deal with a car accident you can see why you might need them. Second, aspirin. If someone's having a heart attack you greatly increase their chances of survival by rapidly administering aspirin to thin their blood. Chewing the pills means the blood thinning effect starts to work in about six minutes. Just as a general thing, if you're not carrying them somewhere else (and they're legal where you are) road flares. Great signaling device and they start a fire pretty well too. Also, a box of spare fuses if you're not already keeping that somewhere else too. One last thing. I keep most of this kind of stuff attached to my seat. I used to drive a Jeep Wrangler and I got the Smittybilt GEAR seat cover that has the MOLLE/PALS webbing on the back. I found it fits quite well on my new WRX too. If you have that type of bucket seat, or even a larger sedan type seat, you might consider putting some stuff for your car kit in/on something like that. Should you need to abandon the vehicle simply undo the webbing straps, remove the bag and attach it to the webbing on the back of your pack. This thing keeps a TON of stuff organized without taking up a lot of space, so much so that I won't even bother to attempt listing what I have in the pouches on mine. Plus, the seat behind you is still usable unless you're NBA type tall so you're not losing anything, you're just using dead space in your car more efficiently.
Yes, Li-Ion batteries discharge well in the cold... however, past -20°C the performace will be greatly diminished. In addition, NEVER 'charge' a Li-Ion below 0°C. Doing so even once will result in a sudden, severe, and permanent capacity loss on the order of several dozen percent or more, as well a similar and also permanent increase in internal resistance. This damage occurs after just one isolated 'cold charging' event, and is proportional to the speed at which the cell is charged.
Great kit. Great ideas, similar to what I have in my car, my wife’s car also. Every kit is going to be different depending on where you live and your season. And people need to Jeep in mind that it’s designed to get you home, not bug out. One addition I have is a mid-size pack of bottle rockets for signaling. Where I live either the troopers or sheriff will come and investigate. And if I’m on a remote road, the higher, louder bang is what I want
Began assembly of a pack prior to watching this terrific video. Best part was one thing I hadn't thought of. Oddly, my entire career in the Army, I packed one, but didn't think of it for this. A bible. Thank you. I keep mine in a zip lock.
Joseph Wolf Yeah, I saw that. Pastor David Platt (who's preaching and writing I really appreciate) was putting out updates on Facebook. Looks like it was a mess down there. Glad you were prepared.
@@EverydayTacticalVids " Production is the application of reason to the problem of survival." -Ayn Rand- "Man's survival requires that those who think be free of the interference of those who don't." -Ayn Rand-
Thank you for the great information, my husband and I watched this together and are going to get our emergency bags ready for our cars and homes. Appreciate you for doing this and GOD bless you brother in Christ! 🙏🏼
"Travel, compact Bible" Of all the bug out/get home bag videos and lists I've seen, this is the first time I've seen this listed. It's good to finally know I'm not the only one who puts a Bible in my go bag.
Picked up this backpack because of you. By far the best backpack I've ever owned, thank you so much for this video, gave me exactly the kind of bag I wanted and needed for all my emergency supplies. I also fancy that knife you have on there, I keep a kukri on the side of mine and a buck knife inside one of the pockets. Props to you for keeping a bible in your bag. I may not be of the same faith (I keep a small book of Zen koans and a set of prayer beads in my bag) but I understand how important it is to keep your spirits up during difficult times. Whatever it is that helps keep your mind and soul at ease is a plus in any survival situation.
Another comment, just saw the battery part. Stuff the empty areas of the battery container with folded up toilet paper and/or Duct tape. You can always use duct tape, but toilet paper is a HUGE convenience that can be used for handling your "business" and tinder.
Oh, and I also have my miniature sized Bible just in case I need the encouragement to read or if I needed to encourage someone else, I'd say it's one of my most important pieces of my kit!!!
If I may make a couple of quick suggestions. 1. A small radio with earbuds. Something that runs on AA batteries or hand crank. Being able to hear news and weather reports may be vital. 2. More socks. Keeping your feet dry, clean, and warm means happy feet. I keep 3 pair in my bug out/survival bag and when I add the pair on my feet it gives me a total of 4 pair.
You should look into getting a Lucy light. They weigh absolutely nothing and their solar powered and quite dependable and waterproof. And you can usually find them for less than 20 bucks that way you don't have to worry about batteries
+EverydayTacticalVids what multitool do u recomend for my first one i dont want a mini one thts for sure could u point me in the right direction please
+EverydayTacticalVids awesome i was thinking of the leathermen wave because it was in tht black but $30 bucks is the better deal thnks fpr the speedy reply great video
Thank you! I have a bag .. just haven't got it all put together. Work in progress as money permits pay 6 months. Over 60 female - been carrying extra clothes in case stuck in snow the past couple years ... inspiring!
awesome video. I love the whole idea of just living an active lifestyle, in general, so that a) you already have equipment that you know how to use and enjoy (besides, who can afford to have extra, extra high end gear that never gets used!); b) you know the common hazards that come up in your area. I love it! I especially appreciate the fact that you realize that the ability to help others is the greatest survival skill that gets overlooked or even looked down upon in today's commercialized, "survivalist" culture. keep up the good work.
Great kit, well thought out! I can't remember, but did you have any fishing lures? Also, if you're ever visiting a foreign country, a book of common phrases in the "host" country could be a helpful asset for you! I saw you had lip balm, but I didn't see any other suntan lotion. On a more personal side note sir, I was very pleased and impressed you have a small Bible with you. I actually carry a small KJV Bible with me whenever I go somewhere. I actually feel very discouraged if I forget it. I love God with all my heart, and if our paths would ever cross someday, I would like to visit your church. (I don't have a church). God bless you!
Great video, thank you for sharing. Very encouraged by the majority of comments, and I’d like to keep mine positive. 1. Emergencies come in all flavors. The more catastrophic the emergency, the less likely it is to occur, and conversely, the smaller emergencies are more likely to happen. This pack is a nice all around solution, when coupled with car maintenance tools. 2. The idea and concept that tactical looking equipment will make you a target is questionable at best. If the situation is dire enough, being alive and having anything will make you a target to certain individuals. Having gear you can trust to last and not fall apart is more important. 3. We all have different experience and skill levels and should build our packs to suit our level while still addressing the situation. One thing I add is a skills manual. There are many types. Survival guides, army manuals, emergency first aid (like on the bandannas) etc... while I know and have used these skills, those riding in the car with me have not. If I am unable to actively lead during the emergency it is nice to know they have some reference materials that don’t rely on cell phone coverage or the internet. 4. I am definitely adding a small bible to my kit; kinda ashamed I hadn’t thought to before.
Our gov spent millions developing a pen for space worked weightless conditions, various temps, and a host of other features... Russians used a pencil😅🤣😂
Many thanks, been searching for "personal office emergency kit" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Nenannah Zonayla Trick - (do a search on google )? It is a great exclusive guide for surviving a disaster minus the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my work buddy got great success with it.
@@mattsampers5006 hi Matt, this is not a wind up: the Soviet space programme started purchasing Mr Fisher’s pens in the late 1960’s. It was Mr Fisher who invested his capital in the development, not US government. Hope you are well, hi from Australia, Mark.
I really liked your vids. The idea that you can go for a car ride to another city and you can suddenly find yourself in an emergency situation where you need a survival kit is very strange to me, here in Italy you can just walk 2 miles in any direction and find a town, but you guys are really spread out on a buttload of land so it makes sense. Still good advice and ideas for camping thoug. Stay awesome!
Great bag sir! Took alot of tips from this vid, and its great to know i'm not the only person to have a Bible in my bag. Take care and God bless brother
I think it’s really cool that you packed the Bible and normally most people wouldn’t show it in a video but you did and you are not ashamed of it and I just really like that:) god bless you man
really good I bumped into this too! I am a young Environmentalist/Activist.. this is amazing information for me. Something I have never had a thought about.
hey ,if anyone else needs to find out about survival try Zamartar Survival Remedy ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got excellent success with it.
That actually looks like a very useful kit! Might I suggest however, a few additions that may not see frequent use, but don't have an alternative in your kit already? bolt cutters Prybar (I carry in my truck a stanley 10" molding bar) Gas and water shut-off tool (lots of companies make them, just make sure that it's non-sparking!) I also carry a Channelock 88 6-in-1 rescue tool car safety hammer (window breaker, seatbelt cutter) for the medical kit, you've got tourniquets but you could certainly use some hemostatic agents, like celox. They are expensive per use, but I look at it like everytime it gets used, it's a life saved. I also recommend a chest seal of some kind, I buy HALO seals. I don't remember seeing any burn gel, but it could come in handy as well. I keep a leatherman raptor in my medical kit finally, i've started packing OALES 4" modular bandages in addition to the standard 6" israeli bandages.
Lots of great ideas. Thank you for continuing to post your "Bushcraft/Survival" videos, they have been a key source information to me. Finding out you pack a small Bible for focus and faith was awesome.....you're truly a source of inspiration to me as well!! Thank you, ~Pop~
I suggest you to include a competition swinning glasses with your dust mask. normally people think dust and smoke are only a problem for your lungs but if you cant keep your eyes away form dust or specially smoke you will be disqualified to do nothing. Swimming glasses avoid tear gas and self defense peeper spray. Obiusly too you can swim and diving looking better in dirty waters. They are inexpensive and dont cost you space penalty in your bag.
I also keep several pair of latex gloves just in case. Also for cold weather, a few years ago when I was a letter carrier for the USPS, I came across some ski gloves I believe the brand was ski skins, that are to be worn under regular gloves. The had metal woven into the fabric to help retain the heat in my hands. I'd wear just them w/out over gloves & pull on a pair of latex gloves over the ski skins, and I was able to keep warm as well as retain a good grip on all the mail I had to carry. Eventually the latex gloves would wear out or tear, but I'd just slip on another cheap pair and keep on going.
Very good selections. You might consider replacing the bug spray or get a smaller one and adding a jar of Vicks which is a repellent also plus fire starter, minor cut and scrape antiseptic. Put one of your smaller lights into the First Aid kit and or a cheap headlight plus a whistle. Maybe another Chap Stick or two to help protect from cold weather damage on the cheeks and hands. My set up also has a canteen hip bag and a fishing chest pack and I have Coast Guard approved food tabs. The idea is if the pack is needed most likely there will be other items to stuff in from work or the vehicle including snacks or food. Move the canteen onto the waist belt with the hatchet and second canteen pouch with the canteen sized container of food tabs. Both canteen bags have extra storage and pockets for water tabs and fire starter etc. The food tabs can also be put into a zip lock and the container can then be used as a canteen also. I have a hand deficit so the chest pack will really come in great packed with the compass hanging on the outside, gloves, light, lighter, note book etc. Whatever one would use or need quickly. The chest pack can fasten to the pack shoulder harnesses or use the padded neck harness it comes with plus body or waist harness it comes with so it stays tight against the body. Also get a water proof stuff sack. Use it for anything especially to share the load and carry more food if you team up with another who is not prepared. Then on the quick fasteners hanging on your pack consider replacing them with two Nit Ize Figure 9 Carabiners or Nit Ize CamJams. The Nit Ize can also be used for tourniquets. They will still allow you to quickly fasten things to the pack while speeding up setup and take down of lines or shelters. Many use a tarp and pick up some "tarp clamps" from Walmart @ 4 for $5.
Interesting times and video, i live in Aus and two things i would also incl would be: Mosquito coils"a must" and a light weight Hammock. Anyhow Cheers.
A lot of great ideas here. The army surplus wool gloves are brilliant. I would recommend that the alkaline batteries are replaced with lithium ion batteries as they will not corrode and have a longer shelf life as well as being less affected by temperature. I loved seeing the wire bundles but would also recommend a couple of wire coat-hangers. They can be bent into small bundles for stowage and then re-formed into an incredibly wide array of uses. I would also keep the canteen (nearly) full of water. Maybe 3/4 full in winter in case it freezes, but nearly full when temps dont get below freezing. Might not be a bad idea to include a pair of convertible pants and thin (silk) long-johns. Well done!
If you live somewhere that has winter, one thing you should carry in your car besides a shovel is a one pound coffee can with a couple inches of sand in the bottom and two or three utility candles. A candle burning inside the can supported by the sand inside the can will keep you automobile warm enough to keep you from freezing to death. Helpful when stuck on the highway during a blizzard.

I like to think that I have my act together with this kind of thing. I think I have a good bag that is well equipped. However, you video gave me some good ideas. Thank you. Good job.
Bless you sir, Thank you for passing along this information. I'm building my bug-out bag currently and I've picked up a LOT of good advice from your video.
I'm not a religious man but I don't see a problem with carrying a bible. For starters, this is a car bag so the weight doesn't matter. Secondly, anything that keeps someone calm and gives them hope is good in my book. Thirdly, it doesn't affect you. There's no reason not to. If it helps him, it's worth it. Personally, I wouldn't carry one. I'd rather have an SAS survival guide but that's me
I agree 💯. I’m Wiccan and keep a small book with me to calm my nerves, but I also see the use as tender for fires as a relevant use to save my life. Yes the book is religious but it is just a book not my faith. Keep it up man thanks for the advice
I watch almost every similar video on RUclips! I think this is -far away from the others-the best video for car emergency bags edc bags etc. Please a make a new video for the same category because that one is almost 3 years old. Please!
Personaly I would dump the bible and put in an SAS Handbook. Dump the demo tool and get a folding saw. And put a another pair of PANTS in the bag. Get rid of the big box of batteries ( too bulky a lot of wasted space and add a 9 volt and some steel wool. Add some cotton balls and a tube a petroleum jelly . Lastly EXTRA AMMO for a gun.
I really like how you made this a EDC and a "Helpout Emergency" bag. Im definitely gonna look in to the blackhawk kit. This must be one of the more practical real life usable EDC/Get Back home bags I have seen.
A lot of EDC videos jsut show the same iteration of Knife, Gun, Flashlight + Multitool. Its nice to see a video where someone has thought through what is actually needed on a day to day basis, which can be seen as a bit boring by some but to me that is what makes an EDC useful and valueable. Yours do that very well.
+EverydayTacticalVids When you backpack say, five days/four nights what is the total weight you carry? Thats all your equipment plus food and water. Thanks
As a Paramedic that works 100 miles from home I have watched many videos to tweak my bag. You Sir have great ideas and they are all practical. My bag is a hybrid of daily, get home and 72 hour. Which is interesting because I have to be able to carry a little bit of everything. I also have a full trauma bag set up that is about half the size of my backpack. I strap it to the handle and molly on my main bag and it sits off to the side. Both bags together weigh 30 lbs. That's with 1.5 liters of water in it. Always good to check out what others have and see if it can apply to you. I even have medical stitches in my pack. Thank you for your videos. I also have a New Testiment in my bag right next to me head lamp.
I get why you have the bible, faith keeps morale up, but for me I see it as a waste of space/weight that I could use for something else (unless I was using it for fire starting or something practical like that). Very good kit though man.
I appreciate your candor and respectful tone - some people just don't know how to disagree without being disagreeable. Thanks for the view and comment.
It's a good way to keep your spirits and hopes up. If you have a great hoping survivor he's more likely to survive with nothing than a saddened hurt suicidal person with everything.
Some things you are missing 1) cash and coins - lots of it in various denomiations 2) roadside signal flares (but towards the end you said you had it) 3) fix-a-flat for fixing flat tires when stranded and air pump/jack 4) lifestraw to drink out of a stream directly instead of treating water 5) something to put out fires if you run across vehicle/house on fire with people inside 6) A CALL POLICE or CALL AMBULANCE sign 7) toys for children (small toy cars for boys, small dolls for girls)
***** Gold would be better than cash. Cash is worth nothing, even more so in SHTF situation -- gold currency, however, has stood the test of time for many centuries.
I seriously doubt you should be trading in times of total chaos. Its better that people not know what you have or its an invitation to get robbed & killed. The best thing in an apocalyptic scenario is to have the money to buy your way out of the chaos to another location/country. So get your money ready, your passport up to date, preferably have citizenship in another country and relatives or family who live there. Grab your proton pack on your back and split.

That's one of the better emergency bag videos. Carry more water containers! This is a big bag, so I'd load it heavy, to have options, and chuck stuff, if I had to hike with it. I'm more of a tool guy so I'd carry a few more generic tools. Carry more methods to get cell phone to work: recharger, battery, solar?.. Maybe carry an old, spare cell phone for it's address book and calling 911? Carry an appropriate map. Consider spare footwear.
This is one of the best but out bag videos i have seen and is definitely given me ideas for videos on my channel and items to keep in my bag. Great video
A few things to add to your med kit . Haveing peroxide in a spray bottle and iodine is hard to beat. Peroxide will bubble out dirt and junk from a injury cleaning hard to get at things iodine disinfectant water purification and great for yeast infections as well as on your feet yes it can make you orange but is worth having some. I also like haveing rubbing alcohol I use it on my badana to clean my face ect when I take a break hiking o man its cooling when you are hot .
Wow! A pastor prepper? There is still some common sense in the world! I'm glad I'm not the only believer who sees what's coming in this crazy world. Real men carry Bibles.
If you're going to store rubber bands long term, they need to be coated so they don't off gas as quickly, dry out, get brittle and snap on you. Rub your palms with silicone paste and rub the bands between them, then store them. If they're a little slick don't worry, the silicone will dry out a bit and you'll get your friction back. If you use them sooner than that, wipe them in a paper towel.
BloodofPatriots With all due respect, bro - you just KILLED the context of that passage. It's like reading 1 line from a book and saying it makes no sense. You gotta be fair to the text if you are going to critique it.
EverydayTacticalVids Really? Here's the entire passage: "'Keep my decrees. Do not mate different kinds of animals. Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material." So God hates mules, sustainable farming AND clothing made of blended fabrics. Wow. You really believe that garbage?
Congratulations...You are at least the first pastor that are prepared for everything...Survival wise...will keep following your videos...God bless you and your family.
Ok, thanks for the video. A few things: First, Henry AR-7. All the parts fit in the stock of the gun and will fit in your pack. No reason NOT to have it. Second, forget the wire and crap. Pack some rat traps (not mouse). Easy to bait and set, low failure rate. If you are up north, COTTON KILLS. Pack a wool sweater in your clothes bag. Forget the fleece. Extra socks are always good. Your fire starter stuff was good, but why not pack a ziplock of dryer lint? Weighs nothing and starts like crazy. Also, I'd keep the jerky but add a half dozen power bars. That's a week of energy if things go south. Also, you can get an Army poncho for a few bucks online or at a flea market. Much better than the Walmart one (plus, you can make a tent out of it). One last thing, a sleeping pad. Weighs nothing but will give you MUCH better sleep; which is important. Now, from your list, which I will add to mine: The sew kit; great idea. An additional light source. The first aid kit was nice, I'll add it; but greatly pare it down.
Good vid. Used to carry my GI issue new testament in my bag all the time too! One thing I do suggest is dump thee chemical handwarmers and invest in a Texsport (they were made by Stansport way back when) fiberglass handwarmer. Fuel stick (charcoal type) would last me about 5-6 hours and case is reusable. These were a godsend when I was stationed overseas in Germany.
Библия разве что пойдет для растопки. В экстремальной ситуации некогда читать. А думать надо не о Боге, а о том, что дома тебя семья ждет. И ради них ты должен выбраться из задницы. Рюкзак отличный в любом случае! 10 баллов из 10! :)
Very well done. You are the only person I have ever seen on this venue to mention carrying a Bible in your pack. Very thoughtful, we could certainly use a little more of this mentality in this world. Guy Speight
just a tip: don't have knives on the outside of your bag. it might seem handy, but if an attacker is behind you they can pull out the knife, and BOOM. You're gonna regret that decision for the last second of your life if you know what I mean. Maybe I'm just being paranoid...
FireBow on my bag i put the knife on the shoulder strap so its right there on my chest and not on the back. very easy for me to reach and dont have to take the bag off
Thank you. I have been meaning to comment on this video. Your video was the beginning of my ramping up my car survival kit and being more aware of what i might need. Thank you!
Tim... I just set up my EDC bag and I'm saying to my self. " I'm going to have to watch a RUclips video and see what I need!" And there you are, offering the video I need... Thanks Tim..... God Bless you and your Ministry...Bill
Hey there, Great & very helpful video. Thank you for your efforts. I suggest including magnification lens, clear lens goggles for eye protection and binoculars
Those that Don't believe are in for a very rude awakening. Exactly as you said Phil; the Bible perfectly describes the end Times; the times we are now living in. God Bless!
God bless you on the Bible packing my brother..that's so awesome that you're a pastor and and a believer..I've been watching your vids as a bushcrafter..and now to find out that you're also a pastor is really cool..
i think the bible is a very interesting addition, you know, what a lot of survivalists or preppers don´t take into account is the moral side of extreme situations, whether you bring a religious book with you because you are a believer or any other kind of book, when your under mental presure, lets say you are trapped and you can´t do anything but wait for help, something that keeps you thinking will keep you from desperation or boredom. simple things like a book can boost your motivation and mind
Great video and mostly practical for your situation and purpose, however, it also gave me some awesome ideas for my own bag that I'm busy putting together and doing some research on etc. Good to see the Bible there, I personally think it is the single most important thing in your bag. Will definitely stay tuned to steal some more ideas from your channel :P
Okay, maybe I sound like an ass, but to save room, I just carry the bible promise book with me. It basically just consists of the most crucial lines from the bible. Better than nothing, but I guess I take my bag storage too seriously.
Imagine how enjoyable it will be when many years into the future your great great grandchildren will be able to look back and see you as you were a hundred maybe 200 years ago or more. Okay now back to the movie.
You will save a lot of weight stripping down anything that's not sharp and putting it in that dry bag. All that extra packaging is gunna ad a bit of weight for ya. Maybe it's not a big deal but ounces make pounds.
Love that you mentioned having a Bible and items to support others physical and spiritual needs. God bless you my friend and brother in Christ.
Thank you David - same to you.

I am disabled and use a wheelchair to get around. Recently a friend's brother, who is also a paraplegic, ran off the side of a road in Upstate NY and was stranded in his car for 3 days. He had his survival kit and was able to keep warm, hydrated, he had food, and his regular meds with him. After hearing that story I have started assembling my own emergency survival kit for my car. Thanks for some great tips on things to include in my kit. I hope I never have to use it but it's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it. Thanks for sharing your faith as well. God bless you brother.
Thanks for sharing, and blessings to you as well.
I'm also in a wheelchair, from a motorcycle accident 4 yrs ago. I'm interested in the whole bugging in vs bugging out, prepper, SHTF topic. I watched one on RUclips about who would be the first to die in a disaster scenario. They had people with mobility issues very high on the list. I don't take it as an insult, it's just reality. I think it all depends on where it happens and what kind of disaster it is. There's a great book called One Second After that explores the aftermath of an EMP strike. It is very believable and it got me started on this. I've got a van and if I was on the road I want to make sure that I have some emergency supplies on board. I have to use a catheter so I want to make sure I always have at least one of those on me. Otherwise I'd have to end up doing more than syphoning gas! I do have that kind of medical stuff that I keep in my van but I need to add more. If something happened if I was at home, I would be much better supplied. If it was a case that required us to have to evacuate the home I think I'd be hooped. Unless it was something like a flood or fire, I would send my family out and try to hunker down and stay in the house myself. I want to make sure I am well supplied and also equipped to fend off looters. If it was an evacuation situation I'd still send my family off on their own, so as not to be slowed down dragging me along, and do my best to survive. I'm healthy and in pretty good shape but as you know it doesn't take much to block your movement when you're stuck in a chair. I'm waiting for someone to invent the wheelchair that has x-country, underwater and flying capabilities!
Thanks for sharing this - scary stuff but glad he's ok. Blessings to you Scott.

One thing I learned in the Marine Corps when it comes to changing your socks (if you're rucking it for awhile or you come into contact with some water) it's good to keep at least two in a plastic bag with both pairs turned inside out, pouring in some baby/foot powder, and shaking it all around. Believe me, this stuff REALLY helps!
I learned in Mexican army that if you use up all your baby/foot powder you can use chalk.
Thanks for the tips... as a 17 y/o I lived in Ellsworth/Trenton, Maine, it was the best 8 months of my life. Lived in a small wood cabin (8X10), wood stove, no electricity or running water and for 2 of those months strictly hunted/fished for my dinner. It's funny, today we are so aware of this gear that we absolutely need, when back then, not that it wasn't important, you just had the necessities and that was it... you went out and did it.
I'm actually an atheist, but that doesn't make the Bible irrelevant, it's advice and wisdom that has stood the test of time. Great video man.
WOW! A kind and reasonable person who can disagree without being nasty! So refreshing. Thanks for the comment, Carter. Shoot me an e-mail at everydaytacticalvids@gmail.com when you get a chance.
EverydayTacticalVids Haha thank you!
@joe Recto That's about the dumbest thing I have ever heard. How do you think man came into existence, we surely did not just pop into existence out of nowhere without the power of God, and we surely did not come from monkeys either. How do you think Heaven and the earth was created, in Genesis 1:1, the Bible says "in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Can you explain how the waters of the Red Sea were parted and the Israelites walking on dry ground where there is normally water. The Bible is the history of the ancient world.
why dont you believe in Christ Jesus brother just curious
@@bendardundat4963 Lack of evidence
I like how you included a Bible. A lot of people assume that Christians expect God to save them from every situation and that we don't believe in action or preparation which is very sad. Nice video!
John Fisher just info mate, survival kit and tools available at survivaloasis.com
John Fisher That is not true, but I suppose you believe that. Bible thumpers and guns go hand in hand. I wonder if any christian believes that god can save them? It seems by your statement that you think you can handle yourself with out him/her/or it. Good video seems to be a well thought out emergency bag.
quercus a backpack of supplies will never save your life unless God intends it to, but it is a great idea to make one
+John Fisher How About checking out my videos and give me some help I just started making videos.
+Tetley M God gaves us the freedom to decide how and how long we will life. That's was makes him special.
I have been prepping a short time and I came across your vid, i appreciate the detailed review of all the items to consider when planning to put a bag of this category together. I'm new to prepping and found your review very helpful. The Bible is definitely fundamental in keeping focus during extreme chaos, enjoyed the thorough but insightful review thx.
Good video. Nice kit. Got me thinking about adding a thing or two to my kit.
A few things I note about your kit. This is a car kit, and I would argue that being such it's missing a few things especially since you are in a cold environment.
First, candles. 6 hour emergency candles usually come in a three or four pack. If you slide off the road in a snowstorm and disable your engine/run out of gas these things will keep the interior of your car much, much warmer. Just make sure you open the door a smidge from time to time because CO poisoning would suck. We're talking keeping the interior of your car above freezing with just one even when it's single digits outside the car. Burning a few and you can keep it around 40F or maybe higher. Really nice in a blizzard where help is hours or even a day away.
Also related to cold, your batteries are all alkaline. Replace those with Lithium batteries. Alkaline batteries are killed by cold, Li-Ion batteries are not. The last thing you want is for your lights to die, need batteries and none of them work. Once those batteries are subjected to serious cold, warming them will bring them back to some extent, but never to full life. Plus, if they get really cold and freeze, they can burst and make a serious mess that can melt through your plastic case and/or cause some chemical burns.
On the medical side, I would add two things to your kit. First, tourniquets, at least two. If you're preparing to deal with a car accident you can see why you might need them. Second, aspirin. If someone's having a heart attack you greatly increase their chances of survival by rapidly administering aspirin to thin their blood. Chewing the pills means the blood thinning effect starts to work in about six minutes.
Just as a general thing, if you're not carrying them somewhere else (and they're legal where you are) road flares. Great signaling device and they start a fire pretty well too. Also, a box of spare fuses if you're not already keeping that somewhere else too.
One last thing. I keep most of this kind of stuff attached to my seat. I used to drive a Jeep Wrangler and I got the Smittybilt GEAR seat cover that has the MOLLE/PALS webbing on the back. I found it fits quite well on my new WRX too. If you have that type of bucket seat, or even a larger sedan type seat, you might consider putting some stuff for your car kit in/on something like that. Should you need to abandon the vehicle simply undo the webbing straps, remove the bag and attach it to the webbing on the back of your pack. This thing keeps a TON of stuff organized without taking up a lot of space, so much so that I won't even bother to attempt listing what I have in the pouches on mine. Plus, the seat behind you is still usable unless you're NBA type tall so you're not losing anything, you're just using dead space in your car more efficiently.
Wilson Gulick why does this only have 12 likes
Yes, Li-Ion batteries discharge well in the cold... however, past -20°C the performace will be greatly diminished.
In addition, NEVER 'charge' a Li-Ion below 0°C. Doing so even once will result in a sudden, severe, and permanent capacity loss on the order of several dozen percent or more, as well a similar and also permanent increase in internal resistance. This damage occurs after just one isolated 'cold charging' event, and is proportional to the speed at which the cell is charged.
Ducati Dude c
25:12 He did say he also has a bag in his trunk with stuff for the car such as flares, etc.
TLDR (guy talks about what he likes in his backpack)
Great kit. Great ideas, similar to what I have in my car, my wife’s car also. Every kit is going to be different depending on where you live and your season. And people need to Jeep in mind that it’s designed to get you home, not bug out. One addition I have is a mid-size pack of bottle rockets for signaling. Where I live either the troopers or sheriff will come and investigate. And if I’m on a remote road, the higher, louder bang is what I want
Began assembly of a pack prior to watching this terrific video. Best part was one thing I hadn't thought of. Oddly, my entire career in the Army, I packed one, but didn't think of it for this. A bible. Thank you. I keep mine in a zip lock.
Rock on, Joseph. Glad it was a help.
Joseph Wolf Yeah, I saw that. Pastor David Platt (who's preaching and writing I really appreciate) was putting out updates on Facebook. Looks like it was a mess down there. Glad you were prepared.

"Travel, compact Bible"
Of all the bug out/get home bag videos and lists I've seen, this is the first time I've seen this listed. It's good to finally know I'm not the only one who puts a Bible in my go bag.
Rock on brother.
Picked up this backpack because of you.
By far the best backpack I've ever owned, thank you so much for this video, gave me exactly the kind of bag I wanted and needed for all my emergency supplies.
I also fancy that knife you have on there, I keep a kukri on the side of mine and a buck knife inside one of the pockets.
Props to you for keeping a bible in your bag. I may not be of the same faith (I keep a small book of Zen koans and a set of prayer beads in my bag) but I understand how important it is to keep your spirits up during difficult times. Whatever it is that helps keep your mind and soul at ease is a plus in any survival situation.
Thanks for watching and for the comments. Glad the bag is working out for you - I'd love to see photos or video of your bag if you're interested.
Another comment, just saw the battery part. Stuff the empty areas of the battery container with folded up toilet paper and/or Duct tape. You can always use duct tape, but toilet paper is a HUGE convenience that can be used for handling your "business" and tinder.
Wow I thought I was over the top with packing stuff in my car for emergencies. Nice job! Thank you!
Oh, and I also have my miniature sized Bible just in case I need the encouragement to read or if I needed to encourage someone else, I'd say it's one of my most important pieces of my kit!!!
If I may make a couple of quick suggestions.
1. A small radio with earbuds. Something that runs on AA batteries or hand crank. Being able to hear news and weather reports may be vital.
2. More socks. Keeping your feet dry, clean, and warm means happy feet. I keep 3 pair in my bug out/survival bag and when I add the pair on my feet it gives me a total of 4 pair.
You know what? That's very impressive I've saved this vid and I'll study your ideas some more. I'm inspired.
Well done
You should look into getting a Lucy light. They weigh absolutely nothing and their solar powered and quite dependable and waterproof. And you can usually find them for less than 20 bucks that way you don't have to worry about batteries
Great video! Not over macho end of world stuff, just practical, often overlooked items!
Well done!!
+69adrummer Thanks - appreciate that.
+EverydayTacticalVids what multitool do u recomend for my first one i dont want a mini one thts for sure could u point me in the right direction please
+Eddie Velasquez I think the Leatherman Wingman is a great option . If you live in the States, you can get them at Home Depot for around $30.
+EverydayTacticalVids awesome i was thinking of the leathermen wave because it was in tht black but $30 bucks is the better deal thnks fpr the speedy reply great video
+Eddie Velasquez Sure thing - send me a pic when you get one.
Thank you! I have a bag .. just haven't got it all put together. Work in progress as money permits pay 6 months. Over 60 female - been carrying extra clothes in case stuck in snow the past couple years ... inspiring!
Glad to inspire - thanks for watching!
awesome video. I love the whole idea of just living an active lifestyle, in general, so that a) you already have equipment that you know how to use and enjoy
(besides, who can afford to have extra, extra high end gear that never gets used!); b) you know the common hazards that come up in your area. I love it! I especially appreciate the fact that you realize that the ability to help others is the greatest survival skill that gets overlooked or even looked down upon in today's commercialized, "survivalist" culture. keep up the good work.
+C Pulliam Thanks - more videos like this coming soon.
What a relief to find someone who thinks Gods word is a matter of survival.

@@johnhoward6933 Nah, and you'll realize that soon
Agree to disagree , Sorry.
@@ForzaHertha no the Bible is defo a good use for survival. The word of God will always protect you.
Great kit, well thought out! I can't remember, but did you have any fishing lures? Also, if you're ever visiting a foreign country, a book of common phrases in the "host" country could be a helpful asset for you! I saw you had lip balm, but I didn't see any other suntan lotion. On a more personal side note sir, I was very pleased and impressed you have a small Bible with you. I actually carry a small KJV Bible with me whenever I go somewhere. I actually feel very discouraged if I forget it. I love God with all my heart, and if our paths would ever cross someday, I would like to visit your church. (I don't have a church). God bless you!
Would love to meet up sometime, brother.
EverydayTacticalVids That would be awesome, brother!
Great video, thank you for sharing. Very encouraged by the majority of comments, and I’d like to keep mine positive. 1. Emergencies come in all flavors. The more catastrophic the emergency, the less likely it is to occur, and conversely, the smaller emergencies are more likely to happen. This pack is a nice all around solution, when coupled with car maintenance tools. 2. The idea and concept that tactical looking equipment will make you a target is questionable at best. If the situation is dire enough, being alive and having anything will make you a target to certain individuals. Having gear you can trust to last and not fall apart is more important. 3. We all have different experience and skill levels and should build our packs to suit our level while still addressing the situation. One thing I add is a skills manual. There are many types. Survival guides, army manuals, emergency first aid (like on the bandannas) etc... while I know and have used these skills, those riding in the car with me have not. If I am unable to actively lead during the emergency it is nice to know they have some reference materials that don’t rely on cell phone coverage or the internet. 4. I am definitely adding a small bible to my kit; kinda ashamed I hadn’t thought to before.
I've always wondered why everyone carries pens and Sharpies, but rarely a pencil. Ink dries up or freezes. Add a pencil to that bag.
Our gov spent millions developing a pen for space worked weightless conditions, various temps, and a host of other features... Russians used a pencil😅🤣😂
Many thanks, been searching for "personal office emergency kit" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Nenannah Zonayla Trick - (do a search on google )?
It is a great exclusive guide for surviving a disaster minus the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my work buddy got great success with it.
@joe Recto The entire story is a myth. Originally both NASA and the Cosmonauts used pencils until they discovered all the flaws.
👏👏
@@mattsampers5006 hi Matt, this is not a wind up:
the Soviet space programme started purchasing Mr Fisher’s pens in the late 1960’s.
It was Mr Fisher who invested his capital in the development, not US government.
Hope you are well, hi from Australia,

I really liked your vids. The idea that you can go for a car ride to another city and you can suddenly find yourself in an emergency situation where you need a survival kit is very strange to me, here in Italy you can just walk 2 miles in any direction and find a town, but you guys are really spread out on a buttload of land so it makes sense. Still good advice and ideas for camping thoug. Stay awesome!
Great bag sir! Took alot of tips from this vid, and its great to know i'm not the only person to have a Bible in my bag. Take care and God bless brother
Glad it was a help, brother.
I think it’s really cool that you packed the Bible and normally most people wouldn’t show it in a video but you did and you are not ashamed of it and I just really like that:) god bless you man
Thanks Isaac. Funny - I got just the opposite in an earlier comment - a guy who split as soon as he saw my Bible.
Excellent car kit. I will use this as a general foundation for my EDC/Car kit. I am a new prepper, appreciate the video.
Glad it helped, John.
really good I bumped into this too!
I am a young Environmentalist/Activist.. this is amazing information for me. Something I have never had a thought about.
hey ,if anyone else needs to find out about survival try Zamartar Survival Remedy ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got excellent success with it.
Thanks for the vid!
A bundle of Zip-ties are very handy.
Also, velcro straps are nice for use for attaching and securing items.
That actually looks like a very useful kit!
Might I suggest however, a few additions that may not see frequent use, but don't have an alternative in your kit already?
bolt cutters
Prybar (I carry in my truck a stanley 10" molding bar)
Gas and water shut-off tool (lots of companies make them, just make sure that it's non-sparking!)
I also carry a Channelock 88 6-in-1 rescue tool
car safety hammer (window breaker, seatbelt cutter)
for the medical kit, you've got tourniquets but you could certainly use some hemostatic agents, like celox. They are expensive per use, but I look at it like everytime it gets used, it's a life saved.
I also recommend a chest seal of some kind, I buy HALO seals.
I don't remember seeing any burn gel, but it could come in handy as well.
I keep a leatherman raptor in my medical kit
finally, i've started packing OALES 4" modular bandages in addition to the standard 6" israeli bandages.
what a loser you are to take time to write all this garbage
The Olaes are all i buy anymore, they are better than Israeli bandages in every way and are a 1 stop shop for packing gauze and compression
Lots of great ideas.
Thank you for continuing to post your "Bushcraft/Survival" videos, they have been a key source information to me. Finding out you pack a small Bible for focus and faith was awesome.....you're truly a source of inspiration to me as well!!
Thank you,
~Pop~
I like your videos, and love the fact you are not ashamed/hide your faith. Hopefully, will encourage others to do the same. Subscribed!
I would suggest a good rugged quality pair of binoculars to scope out the terrain
I suggest you to include a competition swinning glasses with your dust mask. normally people think dust and smoke are only a problem for your lungs but if you cant keep your eyes away form dust or specially smoke you will be disqualified to do nothing. Swimming glasses avoid tear gas and self defense peeper spray. Obiusly too you can swim and diving looking better in dirty waters. They are inexpensive and dont cost you space penalty in your bag.
Interesting - I'll look into that.
I also keep several pair of latex gloves just in case. Also for cold weather, a few years ago when I was a letter carrier for the USPS, I came across some ski gloves I believe the brand was ski skins, that are to be worn under regular gloves. The had metal woven into the fabric to help retain the heat in my hands. I'd wear just them w/out over gloves & pull on a pair of latex gloves over the ski skins, and I was able to keep warm as well as retain a good grip on all the mail I had to carry. Eventually the latex gloves would wear out or tear, but I'd just slip on another cheap pair and keep on going.
Great suggestion! - If you wear eyeglasses, then the standard issue mil goggles would fit over the glasses
Very good selections. You might consider replacing the bug spray or get a smaller one and adding a jar of Vicks which is a repellent also plus fire starter, minor cut and scrape antiseptic. Put one of your smaller lights into the First Aid kit and or a cheap headlight plus a whistle. Maybe another Chap Stick or two to help protect from cold weather damage on the cheeks and hands. My set up also has a canteen hip bag and a fishing chest pack and I have Coast Guard approved food tabs. The idea is if the pack is needed most likely there will be other items to stuff in from work or the vehicle including snacks or food. Move the canteen onto the waist belt with the hatchet and second canteen pouch with the canteen sized container of food tabs. Both canteen bags have extra storage and pockets for water tabs and fire starter etc. The food tabs can also be put into a zip lock and the container can then be used as a canteen also. I have a hand deficit so the chest pack will really come in great packed with the compass hanging on the outside, gloves, light, lighter, note book etc. Whatever one would use or need quickly. The chest pack can fasten to the pack shoulder harnesses or use the padded neck harness it comes with plus body or waist harness it comes with so it stays tight against the body. Also get a water proof stuff sack. Use it for anything especially to share the load and carry more food if you team up with another who is not prepared. Then on the quick fasteners hanging on your pack consider replacing them with two Nit Ize Figure 9 Carabiners or Nit Ize CamJams. The Nit Ize can also be used for tourniquets. They will still allow you to quickly fasten things to the pack while speeding up setup and take down of lines or shelters. Many use a tarp and pick up some "tarp clamps" from Walmart @ 4 for $5.
Interesting times and video, i live in Aus and two things i would also incl would be: Mosquito coils"a must" and a light weight Hammock.
Anyhow Cheers.
A lot of great ideas here. The army surplus wool gloves are brilliant. I would recommend that the alkaline batteries are replaced with lithium ion batteries as they will not corrode and have a longer shelf life as well as being less affected by temperature. I loved seeing the wire bundles but would also recommend a couple of wire coat-hangers. They can be bent into small bundles for stowage and then re-formed into an incredibly wide array of uses. I would also keep the canteen (nearly) full of water. Maybe 3/4 full in winter in case it freezes, but nearly full when temps dont get below freezing. Might not be a bad idea to include a pair of convertible pants and thin (silk) long-johns. Well done!
Great presentation! You solved my canteen/cup dilemma nicely. Thanks for that and for the many informative vids you have!
Semper Fidelis!
+Mike Sankewitsch Glad to help and share the info.
If you live somewhere that has winter, one thing you should carry in your car besides a shovel is a one pound coffee can with a couple inches of sand in the bottom and two or three utility candles. A candle burning inside the can supported by the sand inside the can will keep you automobile warm enough to keep you from freezing to death. Helpful when stuck on the highway during a blizzard.

Bless you sir, Thank you for passing along this information. I'm building my bug-out bag currently and I've picked up a LOT of good advice from your video.
Glad to help, brother.
I’m not sure why, but this video has been coming up in my feed for years now. The RUclips algorithm loves it
Rubber bands get old and break I use the bands that ladies use to put there hair up with they come in a bunch of different colors
good idea!
Buy a bike inner tube and make ranger bands
What i use
I use the same, i get the black and brown heavy duty ones...
Those are the best!
I'm not a religious man but I don't see a problem with carrying a bible. For starters, this is a car bag so the weight doesn't matter. Secondly, anything that keeps someone calm and gives them hope is good in my book. Thirdly, it doesn't affect you. There's no reason not to. If it helps him, it's worth it. Personally, I wouldn't carry one. I'd rather have an SAS survival guide but that's me
Good word - check this video for my take on this topic: ruclips.net/video/2wlKQEUcCRU/видео.html
I agree 💯. I’m Wiccan and keep a small book with me to calm my nerves, but I also see the use as tender for fires as a relevant use to save my life. Yes the book is religious but it is just a book not my faith. Keep it up man thanks for the advice
It's incredible how you can fit so much into a military pack!
I'm a pastor too!!
And I love survival stuff.
Its cool to see this video.
Glad you packed your sword!!
Awesome - thanks for watching Rev! And yes - gotta have a Sword with you.
I watch almost every similar video on RUclips! I think this is -far away from the others-the best video for car emergency bags edc bags etc.
Please a make a new video for the same category because that one is almost 3 years old. Please!
I have an update video coming soon.
Personaly I would dump the bible and put in an SAS Handbook. Dump the demo tool and get a folding saw. And put a another pair of PANTS in the bag. Get rid of the big box of batteries ( too bulky a lot of wasted space and add a 9 volt and some steel wool. Add some cotton balls and a tube a petroleum jelly .
Lastly EXTRA AMMO for a gun.
I really like how you made this a EDC and a "Helpout Emergency" bag. Im definitely gonna look in to the blackhawk kit.
This must be one of the more practical real life usable EDC/Get Back home bags I have seen.
+chris vighagen Thanks Chris - appreciate that.
A lot of EDC videos jsut show the same iteration of Knife, Gun, Flashlight + Multitool.
Its nice to see a video where someone has thought through what is actually needed on a day to day basis, which can be seen as a bit boring by some but to me that is what makes an EDC useful and valueable. Yours do that very well.
+chris vighagen Thanks again Chris. I'm working on a bag now for inside the car and also updating this bag. Videos coming in 2016.
Oh looking forward to it =D
+EverydayTacticalVids When you backpack say, five days/four nights what is the total weight you carry? Thats all your equipment plus food and water. Thanks
As a Paramedic that works 100 miles from home I have watched many videos to tweak my bag. You Sir have great ideas and they are all practical. My bag is a hybrid of daily, get home and 72 hour. Which is interesting because I have to be able to carry a little bit of everything. I also have a full trauma bag set up that is about half the size of my backpack. I strap it to the handle and molly on my main bag and it sits off to the side. Both bags together weigh 30 lbs. That's with 1.5 liters of water in it. Always good to check out what others have and see if it can apply to you. I even have medical stitches in my pack.
Thank you for your videos. I also have a New Testiment in my bag right next to me head lamp.
Good comments, good info - thanks for sharing this, RW.
I keep a bible in mine as well. Should keep 9v with some steel wool in it as a fire starter.
What Bible translation did you use?
I keep one in my house, car and my job like Ron Swanson in case my ex wife finds me ;)
jcllings well then you just write us a book!!!! JK not
Now that funny stuff right there!!!🤣 But I can definitely understand, I've got an Ex as well, and she's worse than any Bug- Out problem..
I get why you have the bible, faith keeps morale up, but for me I see it as a waste of space/weight that I could use for something else (unless I was using it for fire starting or something practical like that). Very good kit though man.
I appreciate your candor and respectful tone - some people just don't know how to disagree without being disagreeable. Thanks for the view and comment.
It's a good way to keep your spirits and hopes up. If you have a great hoping survivor he's more likely to survive with nothing than a saddened hurt suicidal person with everything.
Very good gear demo/ lesson / inspiration video!! Thank you!
The Bible is the perfect choice to keep up front!
Binoculars, rain poncho, basic tool kit, retrieval magnet, CB radio, radio scanner, shortwave am/fm radio, solar battery charger, water filter, brighter flashlight, utility knife with extra blades, lock pick set, GPS and cigars...
Some things you are missing
1) cash and coins - lots of it in various denomiations
2) roadside signal flares (but towards the end you said you had it)
3) fix-a-flat for fixing flat tires when stranded and air pump/jack
4) lifestraw to drink out of a stream directly instead of treating water
5) something to put out fires if you run across vehicle/house on fire with people inside
6) A CALL POLICE or CALL AMBULANCE sign
7) toys for children (small toy cars for boys, small dolls for girls)
***** Gold would be better than cash. Cash is worth nothing, even more so in SHTF situation -- gold currency, however, has stood the test of time for many centuries.
Use things to trade that people would want, tobacco, alcohol, ammo, food supplies aka beef jerky.
I seriously doubt you should be trading in times of total chaos. Its better that people not know what you have or its an invitation to get robbed & killed.
The best thing in an apocalyptic scenario is to have the money to buy your way out of the chaos to another location/country.
So get your money ready, your passport up to date, preferably have citizenship in another country and relatives or family who live there.
Grab your proton pack on your back and split.
If a apocalyptic scenario happens, people wont care about money.

Great idea, i hadn't thought of it lol. Kleenex makes little convenient packs that are technically for your nose, but....

That's one of the better emergency bag videos. Carry more water containers! This is a big bag, so I'd load it heavy, to have options, and chuck stuff, if I had to hike with it. I'm more of a tool guy so I'd carry a few more generic tools. Carry more methods to get cell phone to work: recharger, battery, solar?.. Maybe carry an old, spare cell phone for it's address book and calling 911? Carry an appropriate map. Consider spare footwear.
This is one of the best but out bag videos i have seen and is definitely given me ideas for videos on my channel and items to keep in my bag. Great video
+Kid Prepper Glad it was a help man.
Gotta thumbs up for the Bible, good survival kit too.
Thanks.
A few things to add to your med kit . Haveing peroxide in a spray bottle and iodine is hard to beat. Peroxide will bubble out dirt and junk from a injury cleaning hard to get at things iodine disinfectant water purification and great for yeast infections as well as on your feet yes it can make you orange but is worth having some. I also like haveing rubbing alcohol I use it on my badana to clean my face ect when I take a break hiking o man its cooling when you are hot .
I realize this video is older now but I just came across it. It is one of the better videos I have come across on this topic. Well done.
Wow! A pastor prepper? There is still some common sense in the world! I'm glad I'm not the only believer who sees what's coming in this crazy world. Real men carry Bibles.
lol
Dafuq?
Amen
Rambo survived with just one knife.
Not everyones Rambo
I'm Rambo :3
It's also a stupid, low quality movie from the eighties.
Connor Smith What in tarnations are you talking about. The original Rambo was an awesome movie.
It’s a movie
Great lil kit!
Nice kit
Very nice Kit!!!
Rock on - thanks fellas.
If you're going to store rubber bands long term, they need to be coated so they don't off gas as quickly, dry out, get brittle and snap on you. Rub your palms with silicone paste and rub the bands between them, then store them. If they're a little slick don't worry, the silicone will dry out a bit and you'll get your friction back. If you use them sooner than that, wipe them in a paper towel.
The bible is the real life saver!!!
Truth.
Yeah, its really important to know that all of your clothing made of blended fabrics offends God (Leviticus 19:19).
BloodofPatriots With all due respect, bro - you just KILLED the context of that passage. It's like reading 1 line from a book and saying it makes no sense. You gotta be fair to the text if you are going to critique it.
BloodofPatriots You don't really deserve a retort Ace!!
EverydayTacticalVids Really? Here's the entire passage:
"'Keep my decrees. Do not mate different kinds of animals. Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material."
So God hates mules, sustainable farming AND clothing made of blended fabrics.
Wow. You really believe that garbage?
I like how you have your Bible to distract yourself from the bad things
God be with you my friend. Love and respect from Greece. Very nice video.
Thanks!
Congratulations...You are at least the first pastor that are prepared for everything...Survival wise...will keep following your videos...God bless you and your family.
add benadryl helps with allergic reactions
Have a bee sting kit. (Eqv-Epi_pen) 0.3MGG/O.3ML. Got stung 1 time, hospital E.R. saved my life!!!
Ok, thanks for the video. A few things: First, Henry AR-7. All the parts fit in the stock of the gun and will fit in your pack. No reason NOT to have it. Second, forget the wire and crap. Pack some rat traps (not mouse). Easy to bait and set, low failure rate. If you are up north, COTTON KILLS. Pack a wool sweater in your clothes bag. Forget the fleece. Extra socks are always good. Your fire starter stuff was good, but why not pack a ziplock of dryer lint? Weighs nothing and starts like crazy. Also, I'd keep the jerky but add a half dozen power bars. That's a week of energy if things go south. Also, you can get an Army poncho for a few bucks online or at a flea market. Much better than the Walmart one (plus, you can make a tent out of it). One last thing, a sleeping pad. Weighs nothing but will give you MUCH better sleep; which is important.
Now, from your list, which I will add to mine: The sew kit; great idea. An additional light source. The first aid kit was nice, I'll add it; but greatly pare it down.
***** Perhaps my understanding on wet fleece has been incorrect. I will look into that again. Thanks!
and also where did you find the medical bandana? i want one of those for my buyout bag.
Good vid. Used to carry my GI issue new testament in my bag all the time too! One thing I do suggest is dump thee chemical handwarmers and invest in a Texsport (they were made by Stansport way back when) fiberglass handwarmer. Fuel stick (charcoal type) would last me about 5-6 hours and case is reusable. These were a godsend when I was stationed overseas in Germany.
Библия разве что пойдет для растопки. В экстремальной ситуации некогда читать. А думать надо не о Боге, а о том, что дома тебя семья ждет. И ради них ты должен выбраться из задницы. Рюкзак отличный в любом случае! 10 баллов из 10! :)
Pleasantly surprised that it's not stuffed with guns and ammo, and no references to terrorism.
I think your missing something .......water !!!!! The most important object to keep you alive o.0
True - I keep some in the car.
water bottle, purification tablets, did you listen to this guy?
Very well done. You are the only person I have ever seen on this venue to mention carrying a Bible in your pack. Very thoughtful, we could certainly use a little more of this mentality in this world. Guy Speight
Thanks - I appreciate those comments.
I knew I wasn’t the only one with a bible in my survival bag!!!
just a tip: don't have knives on the outside of your bag. it might seem handy, but if an attacker is behind you they can pull out the knife, and BOOM. You're gonna regret that decision for the last second of your life if you know what I mean. Maybe I'm just being paranoid...
FireBow if this comes out of the trunk to be carried the knife goes inside.
EverydayTacticalVids I know, but it was meant for people who could possibly use this as a tutorial to make their own bag
FireBow on my bag i put the knife on the shoulder strap so its right there on my chest and not on the back. very easy for me to reach and dont have to take the bag off
Why don't you listen...
In the video you're commenting on, he explains the placement of the knife you're talking about...
😂 I keep laughing at the fact that you keep back hand slapping the items. 😂 no offense. Just a funny habit of yours
This made me laugh too much...
Thank you. I have been meaning to comment on this video. Your video was the beginning of my ramping up my car survival kit and being more aware of what i might need. Thank you!
I love the fact that this man includes his bible,,,, pastor or not, I think its awesome.
The Bible was one I didn’t think of. I have one of those little red NT plus Psalms bibles that I will add to my gear bag. Good looking out.
Here are my thoughts on this - ruclips.net/video/2wlKQEUcCRU/видео.html
You're not preparing for a car-breakdown, you're preparing for the Zombie-apocalypse!
Ha! Negative bro - just prepared for more than just me; trying to be a good neighbor as well.
Tim... I just set up my EDC bag and I'm saying to my self. " I'm going to have to watch a RUclips video and see what I need!" And there you are, offering the video I need... Thanks Tim..... God Bless you and your Ministry...Bill
+William Confer Glad it helped Bill.
Hey there,
Great & very helpful video. Thank you for your efforts. I suggest including magnification lens, clear lens goggles for eye protection and binoculars
Brother, you are ready!
Trying, bro...trying.
Love the fact you have a bible. . You know the times now are explained in the bible.
Amen
Those that Don't believe are in for a very rude awakening. Exactly as you said Phil; the Bible perfectly describes the end Times; the times we are now living in. God Bless!
@@lonesurvivor450 you need to wake up full stop. Religion is a fairy tale
God bless you on the Bible packing my brother..that's so awesome that you're a pastor and and a believer..I've been watching your vids as a bushcrafter..and now to find out that you're also a pastor is really cool..
Thanks G.E. Yeah, this is an interest for me, but my calling is as a pastor for sure.
i think the bible is a very interesting addition, you know, what a lot of survivalists or preppers don´t take into account is the moral side of extreme situations, whether you bring a religious book with you because you are a believer or any other kind of book, when your under mental presure, lets say you are trapped and you can´t do anything but wait for help, something that keeps you thinking will keep you from desperation or boredom. simple things like a book can boost your motivation and mind
+english curse Well-stated. Check out this video for similar thoughts: ruclips.net/video/2wlKQEUcCRU/видео.html
Great video and mostly practical for your situation and purpose, however, it also gave me some awesome ideas for my own bag that I'm busy putting together and doing some research on etc. Good to see the Bible there, I personally think it is the single most important thing in your bag. Will definitely stay tuned to steal some more ideas from your channel :P
I like that you added the bible
I consider that wasted space lol
+Dixinormus I do too
Okay, maybe I sound like an ass, but to save room, I just carry the bible promise book with me. It basically just consists of the most crucial lines from the bible. Better than nothing, but I guess I take my bag storage too seriously.
Not a waste of space,
i tend to take my favourite fairy tale book with me too :)
Imagine how enjoyable it will be when many years into the future your great great grandchildren will be able to look back and see you as you were a hundred maybe 200 years ago or more. Okay now back to the movie.
You will save a lot of weight stripping down anything that's not sharp and putting it in that dry bag. All that extra packaging is gunna ad a bit of weight for ya. Maybe it's not a big deal but ounces make pounds.
