Today it's finally time for me to take another look at Doomsday Preppers, and yes it's still insane. See what I did? I didn't say "worse than I remember" even though I really wanted to. That's called GROWTH. Anyways enjoy and I'll probably make one about the kid in the beginning next month lol

Thank you

Why is being physically fit NEVER part of their prep?
Because fitness is harder and requires more commitment than just throwing your money away at dubious bunkers and excess supplies. A lot of these guys don't plan for whats more likely to ACTUALLY happen vs what THEY THINK will happen.
Well if it happens about 2 weeks into an apocalypse a bunch of us young healthy men who work in factories and shit we will all find nice huge holdouts built by obese old men who died of diabetes
Delusional lack of self-awareness. They view themselves as the "elite" in that they know that Russia's gonna destroy the world or dirty bombs getting detonated in Houston or whatever the specific person's fear/fantasy is. It's basically just an all-consuming hobby, not operational preparation
Because every fat , bearded maga hat wearing tacticool asshole is going to John Rambo the shit out of the apocalypse from their recliner and unlimited ammo. No need for stamina when your a crack shot. People who have never been in traumatic situations have unrealistic expectations of their reactions and actions.
@@abrahamwashington8579 my thoughts exactly. Let em prep. When it hits the fan, im skipping chest day to take gramps stockpile. Cuz you never skip leg day.
I would actually love to have a Doomsday Bunker. But my biggest fear is that I'd get a notification that a nuke is incoming while I'm out like, getting groceries and I'll just die sitting in the inevitable traffic caused by panic.
Something tells me these folks don't get out much...
Honestly how stuff is going atm it's inevitable
😂
@@spicybeantofuliterally no reason to worry about it. Also what is the point in living after something like that. It would be pure chaos and people that have wanted to kill with no consequences will run rampant, and probably won't be very nice in the way they kill
Ya fairly often at work I'm thinking "man there is so many many people here I'd be seriously screwed if a zombie apocalypse happend right now
Plot twist, Chris filmed this from a secret bunker buried 30ft underground. Each one of his vhs copies of Babe contains enough nutritionally enhanced pork paste to survive for 22 days.
Holy shit I never noticed it’s all the same movie 😂😂
Chris has been really quiet since you posted this. I think he's moving locations 😂
Mmmmm nutritionally enhanced pork paste
*22 years
Ok I just noticed that why does he have all those copy of babe on vhs
that kid saying "I'm not afraid to have to kill." so stoically is the funniest thing I've seen in a while. Also the most alarming.
Right?
Freaking terrifying.
LARPers gonna LARP
The kid looks like murdoc from Gorillaz
I’m not afraid to WANT to kill. Wait… I think I just want to kill. Where’s the nearest school?
@@PanicGiraffe 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Most of the bunkers of this show are always depressing holes in the dirt. But I remember there was a family, that kind of build a fort from shipping containers with a lot of plants, kind of like a post apocalyptic castle. That was the only home, that really looked like it would be nice to wake up there.
Agreed
shipping containers used to ship toxic waste
I think I watched that episode. But metal boxes in the desert. There are a couple of videos on RUclips that show the bad stuff about them.
A friend of mine was almost on that shit show of a... well, show, and the producers tried to get him to put in a bunker made from a shipping container because they had to reinforce the image that all peppers are rich idiots
@@toomanyaccounts only some of them
I like how this guy is so worried about prepping and not dying in an apocalypse but his source of entertainment is wasting food to make a stew of absolute garbo
When you explain it that way he's like a dungeon boss in some RPG that people remember but not really.
@@MK_ULTRA420 The best fallout 4 cut content was meeting this guy as a glowing ghoul chucking bunker stew at you.
@@jackd6881 With a series of notes in the nearby terminal that start and end with:
"Reminder: Seal the front door to be air-tight before the bombs drop."
"I really should have sealed that door. The tingling and burning never ends."
"BUNKER STEW"
@@MK_ULTRA420 "itchy tasty Bunker stew"
@@jackd6881these comments are GOLD
Anyone can make fun of weird people on reality TV, but not everyone can do it while giving off "your best friend from college who is super chill and funny and always shares his weed with you" vibes.
True
who also secretly despise you because your iq is seemingly lower than he likes
@@splashkid8410 What? That's so mean.
A guy that lives like 25 minutes from me has an underground bunker made up of about 30 old buses. He's very private but if you help him expand/maintain the bunker then you have a lifetime guaranteed spot in case of the apocalypse
You can’t say something like that and not give an address or way to get a hold of him, gib me address, will work hard for that guaranteed spot
Is it that old man that looks like Santa Claus who wants all the families kids to stay with him separate from their parents who decide to live in his bus dungeons lol
@@Rmile I'm sorry to tell you this, but you'll have to be more specific.
Bro I’d absolutely help a few times, just In case
Dude do you live in Colorado bc I knew about someone that that sounds like
I love seeing these again! A buddy of mine in middle school was on an episode of Preppers -- for the life of me I don't remember which one, but at some point they were roasting mice on a bonfire, if I remember correctly. He ended up going to prison for armed robbery and kidnapping not too long after high school. I guess being obsessed with doomsday isn't exactly synonymous with being a well-adjusted parent.
You mean drilling fear & firearm use down your childrens' throats has negative outcomes?
Honestly I kinda hate to joke about it, it's legitimately sad that kids end up stuck in families like these or extreme cheapskates
Dude this rocks, any other stories about them
He said I'm wearing flannel to cover up the sides of my breasts 🤣🤣 same, Chris. Same.
Lmao I was looking for this. Also as a bigger guy...yes 😂
Dude is so afraid of nukes but totally ignoring diabetes.
😂😂😂😂😂
Fr, he's gonna end up having a heart attack while on one of his 3 month "conditioning" sessions.
thats the thing that stood out to me however living in the South there just so much food thats very unhealthy that its really hard to avoid it
@@DJ-iu5bb I visited a town near Nantucket, MA and when I ordered a chocolate chip muffin, they served it with a thick slice of butter to put on top, that was the first time I’dever seen that because I live in california. Everyone in that restaurant was overweight to varying degrees
I was about to say something along these lines lol
I love how you address that you're OK from the blood on your hand. It wasn't you so much as the bludgeoned, festering corpse in the other room we were worried about
Love how Al is preparing for nuclear bombs but his bug out house is only 5 feet below ground. Lol
Lol for real and he’s really out of shape should have gotten on a workout plan with all that time
@@maryyjanee247 he does work out now he lost a ton of weight
Ya, he hasn't thought that one through.
Also, a wood burning stove, that's great, that smoke needs to go somewhere. Probably above ground? What's the point of having a hidden bunker at that point if you're just gonna burn the spot cooking supper?
Like these people just spend money and the industry selling bunkers are like "hell yeah we will put in all the things to ensure anyone in a 5 mile radius will see where you're at!!!
That and over a thousand gallons of water. Like how much of that water just goes to waste? He would need to replace those eventually, there's not enough of those alla seltzer tabs to purify all of that water.
@@slashismyhommie8182 If he burned wood, the exiting air would have to be replaced with fallout-laden fresh air. I'm going to guess he didn't install any way to filter dust out of intake air.. at this point I don't know if he has ventilation at all.
Well everyone who watched 50s PSA videos knows that a simple duck and cover will protect you from a nuclear blast.
Eventually you’ll bless us with an hour-long special of one episode of several different shows.
I'm sayin 😂
this would be the best day of my fucking life
I’d cry from happiness lol
Isolation causes paranoia, anxiety and uncontrolled bouts of rage.. that sounds like these kinds of people on a standard day. God knows what it would be like stuck down there with them
That's basically what Cloverfield lane was about. Doomsday prepper is a nut so the main character decided she'd rather live in the apocalypse than live with him
I’m convinced there’s a couple preppers who thought it was the end and are still just chilling in their bunker thinking their society’s only hope.
He's worried about radiation... But that air gap on the door is huge!!! 🤣
Also, because of the wood stove, there's an open chimney above ground that leads right in...
@@chadmasta5 Right? He has to have that massive air gap to feed fresh air to the stove! :P
Ironic that he's so worried about dying in a nuclear holocaust when he looks like a light jog could end him.
It's like never leaving your home in fear of being murdered by a hobo but also playing Russian roulette once a month
I laughed way too hard at this comment
When he says "I am NOT going to drink my own urine", he really sounds like he's telling himself that more than he's telling the audience.
I know you said that they are a burden on their family after death... but hear me out, I'd never buy/build a bunker. Inheriting one would be badass though.
Al dying of a heart attack is so much more likely than any doomsday scenario on his mind
Fr, if a zombie apocalypse happened he'd be a walking buffet for them😆.
I sincerely look forward to your videos man more than any other RUclipsr...your sense of humor is right up my alley and I think if you continue pumping out the quality content you are now one day you're gonna explode and be one of the rare few who can quit their job and RUclips in it's place. Keep up the rad work man! Great video, look forward to the next
The thing I do like is you are making fun of preppers but really not in a bad way. The fact you mentioned that they are not the normal type of preppers gives you a plus. I know a lot of preppers and for the most part they see it as a hobby that yes they take seriously but really a lot of it is learning skills like first aid, self defense, survival skills like making a shelter and fire, even gardening. Sure they horde some supplies
I'm calling it now, Chris's next video will be sponsored by Big Al's album sales and bunker stew.
I'm a prepper and this shit is still hilarious.
I also work in construction and have seen and even worked In the REAL SERIOUS VERSIONS of what's on these shows.
Y'know the ones that people with unholy money have?
There's amazing shit out there
As a Floridian nonchalantly waiting for a hurricane, this video feels oddly apropos and is even more humorous
Me too!
Good luck guys....
Or ladys....
Hope your all good when it's said and done, that aside you should absolutely blast that country song for the whole neighborhood to hear
Hey I'm waiting on that hurricane too, I'm down in Fort Pierce Florida. We'll see how it goes 🤷🏻♂️
Hope you end up on the other end of it a-okay 🤞🏻🤞🏻
The House Hunters thing is so stupidly true, I saw one the other day where he was some big tech guy and her job was "aspiring influencer", she had like 100,000 followers across all her platforms. Which isn't nothing, but it's not a lot to pretend that's your job. So they needed like a 5 bedroom house for the two of them as a *starter home* when she has no job and clearly doesn't have enough clout for sponsorships.
Spoken like a couple with ZERO intention of cleaning their own home lmao I struggle to keep ONE bedroom clean
Actually micro influencers can make good money, it’s about engagement and if you can sell. Also five bedrooms isn’t a lot.
@@LeolaGlamour Five bedrooms is a lot, especially for two fucking people. There isn't a single five bedroom house in my entire housing complex, and that's over 200 houses.

13:19 well that line aged well lmfaoo
Aged very very well.
Animal Kingdom really portrayed the preppers as a small militia, and they still lost.
There's not much that a single family is going to be able to do, it seriously doesn't matter how much training they have.
Literally the only upside that they would have, (especially the preppers with children), is home field advantage; you could have traps, nests, mines even, sniper spots, maybe even Vietnam status and have some holes to fall into with some sort of spikes at the bottom, like rebar that's been grinded to a point.
I legit just got off work, saw the poll and as soon I voted, the video notification came through, it was meant to be.

Brawny paper towel Chris 🔥
Btw, congrats on your first milli!
Brawny Paper Towel Chris is best Chris.
Ran out of toilet paper but have a backup plan? That's Brawny.
"I don't like calling this a bunker. It's an underground home."
"Cool, so what are you cooking?"
"Bunker stew."
It would of been great if that show had gotten all the preppers shown together and had them argue about why their doomsday fantasy is the best.
I actually used to watch this show when it was live and enjoyed it! There's one episode you haven't covered yet but totally should. There's an episode that takes place in Salem Oregon and it's about a guy that watched Red Dawn and that made him scared enough to start prepping and he actually started building a hideout in the city sewers. Now that's funny but what's funny to me is he lives a short walk away from me and his family owns a restaurant that I've been to.
Small side note, I personally think prepping is fully valid but not because toilet paper was short during the pandemic for a week but more so the fact the government had the balls to try to tell me I'm not an essential worker and so too bad I couldn't support my family anymore or else I'm going to "kill grandma". Not to mention plenty of other occurances that happen on a regular basis from civil unrest to natural disaster. It doesn't hurt to be self sufficient and have a stockpile of supplies in case something happens. It could be something as minor as a work injury or losing your job.
Also, did that blood on your hands make you become a prepper too? Lol!
My favourite part of this show is the survival time stats at the end they always get butt hurt and it's usually something like because you have spent 40 years prepping you will be able to hold out for 3 weeks longer than the rest of us .
7:15 He looks like he'll keel over long before the end of the world. Hopefully he doesn't have to do any running in the apocalypse.
Also with those portions his food wont last long. 5 cans for 1 single meal, lol.
Im reminded of the woman who prepped for a pandemic 😷 im sure felt sooo validated and is also now 1,000x worse
Full blown REPENT! REPENT!
That’s actually pretty reasonable. You forget in many countries they were arresting people for leaving their homes. In China they we welding doors shut and many people died because most Chinese are poor as shit, therefor had no food to be prepared for such an event
Doomsday preppers think they’re the heroes, the vault dweller saviors from fallout. When in fact the preppers are selfish monsters,
like the raiders. They’re the villains in fallout, but not the interesting or powerful villains, the chaff villains who took over a local grocery store.
Should definitely check out the teens from Superbad who have a plan to survive the Zombie Apocalypse. Their whole plan is to each grab a backpack, abandon their families, and live like nomads until they die.
I love how you can just dig into a moment of two seconds and perfectly characterize the deeper truth so ephermerally obvious, and then just repeat the process for an entire video. It's a much better experience than watching the actual episodes alone in one's bunker silo
"i am not going to drink my own urine. look at me, read my lips: I. AM. NOT. GOING. TO. DRINK. MY. OWN. URINE."
"sir, this is a wendy's... i just asked if you wanted a frostee or any fries to go with your double double."
A wood burning stove inside a bunker would not only give away your position but would also allow radiation to enter through the smoke stack
It depends. It probably wouldn’t. Besides gamma rays (which aren’t really stopped unless you’re deep or behind lead) the main concern is radiation attached to particles. Most of the particles would be pushed out by the smoke
@@Kazako83 thats not how that works without airfiltration youll die in a matter of hours a smoke stack would absolutely allow radiation inside
@@mattg4705 that totally is how that works. Radiation also, especially from a distant nuclear warhead is nothing that would kill you in hours.
@@mattg4705 that totally is how that works. Radiation also, especially from a distant nuclear warhead is nothing that would kill you in hours.
Im now convinced they dont even think a nucular event might happen they just want an underground bunker to hide from all the bullys they attract
Ok, reall talk
Bunkers are cool
Who wouldn't want to have fucking bunker?*
Its my childhood dream comes true
*i kinda hope i'm not the only one
While I completely agree that these people are different from the people who prep casually, the toilet paper was a HUFE issue. In my area, we NEVER had toilet paper. My family does a little prepping for occasions for shortages so they helped me. But I was about to resort to taking toilet paper home from work with how bad it had gotten. I used coffee filters, even towels when I was out just to wipe. I live too far from my parents to get TP from them all the time, but honestly, that's how I got most of it. Stores even had to issue just one bundle of TP per customer.
Ironically, I like to prepare for how I'll handle doomsday preppers.
i'd love to hear that lol
Lemmi guess you’re the “badass” that thinks you’re gonna survive by killing or robbing preppers huh?
@@Pissoff56 I was referring more to everyday life. I don't have much conversation fodder for people who only discuss bomb shelters and ammo types, so it's good if I diversify my topic knowledge to make family get togethers and parties more tolerable.
@@obsessedwithguitars3157 you do know preppers are normal people that don’t talk about doomsday 24/7 right ?
@@Pissoff56 Sure buddy.
Lmfao i lost it when the bunker stu was made 😂😂😂😂😂 Physical fitness was NOT in his bugout plan ! Hes just gonna walk aggressively slow when the world ends
I still like that dating Doomsday Prepper episode from awhile back.
So glad I stumbled on your channel love the content and the format of everything. Keep it up my guy
The mother of the "I'm not afraid to have to kill" was the realtor for my family in my home town of Plato, Missouri. That kid's name is Jason Beachum and he was a weird fuckin dude, that weirdo is the only thing people in my home town talked about for years lmao
Not only do they want it to happen they want to act their fantasy of control over others.
Im not a doomsday prepper BUT i would love to have a shelter like that honestly
"Ey kev, glad I caught ya! You're going to go hang out with big al in the woods in a bunker" that was hilarious to me.
Dude i love how your channel is growing! 😮
I gotta give the TV show credit for saying why it was stupid instead of leaning into the hysteria.
bro there isn't a video that you've made that hasn't made me blurt out laughing and for that i thank you good sir lmaooo
I was housemates with the oldest son from the Doomsday Castle family. He was the owner of a Rock&Roll themed bed and breakfast house in St. Petersburg, FL.
He sold it, and all guitars that were on the walls around the house, before I moved in though. I only know bc my one college roommate lived there before I did.
Brent (I think his name was?) was a weird dude. Acted and dressed like a 19-year old dude, but was like 42. He was pretty cringe.
While we got along mostly, I never really liked him or spent time hanging out with him.
Doomsday Preppers are some strange people.
Can imagine that dude sitting in his bunker all day watching nuclear explosion videos on repeat.. "Just doing my research"
Thank you for giving in and reviewing this show again, please do more, it's so entertaining
I bet every three months when he opens that bunker door to come outside he's terrified
If I inherited someone's doomsday bunker, I'm moving in. I'm not paranoid about the apocalypse, just a millennial who would happily DIY some renovations to be able to technically own a home.
We love you Chris!!! I felt really sick yesterday and Seeing this video just made me feel so much better! Keep up the great work dude
There's an underground home right up the street from me. I don't think they're preppers or anything like that. 1 part of the place is exposed and it's practically all big windows, so apparently they're not too worried about keeping the hordes out. It's more like what I'd imagine a modern day hobbit to live in.
I just discovered this channel. It's hilarious! 😄
That song could be used for torture. Can you imagine hearing that song over and over over again? "Get ready for the wo-orst..." 😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Last night I did too many party chemicals and thought I was dying. This video distracted me from that. Good work Chris
You crack my shit up. Somehow found your channel down the rabbit hole a few days ago and I've stuck around. You've earned my sub for sure. Keep up the fire work homie 🤘🔥
Will say, it's funny hearing the toilet paper jokes, and Chris only needing 6days to get more. But I guess he was lucky or I was really unlucky. Because in my rural area we were more or less out of stock of it for like 3-4 months.
Good lord man. My wife buys the huge packs at the warehouse stores. We still had some left by the time everything was fixed. Just buy one of those super packs with like 800 rolls or whatever lol. You only buy like 2 of those a year
The weirdest one I saw was a couple that canned meat. That wouldn't be weird as it is, but they just canned any little piece of meat they had. It seemed like they were even canning leftovers. So their house was littered with random jars of meats packed in liquids. I have no idea what season or episode it was, but [shudder].
One of them was also transgender and was hoarding their meds, but I can't remember how that went. That's not the weird part, the canned meat was.
He has a wood burning stove in an underground bunker... And he believes the apocalypse will be nuclear. That smoke from the stove needs to have some sort of exhaust system aka an opening to the outside. Pretty sure any nuclear fallout or radiation or what have you would be able to make its way into said exhaust system. Am I wrong?
I mean, of the exhaust system is running air to the outside would reduce the odds. But it's either have the extractor system, or die of CO exposure.
I was thinking the same thing and I'm surprised more people aren't mentioning it
@@Jane-oz7pp I'd rather die of CO2 poisoning than radiation tbh but it's just a thought I had
i'm not sure if youre going to see this, but i recently started watching your videos. i love them. your voice is very calming and your reactions and commentary really add a lot to the show. im glad yt put you on my recommended lol
How does this man prepare himself so much for a nuclear apocalypse but not heart disease or diabetes?
I just started the video but the flannel comment made me giggle 😂
"Sir the question was how long have you been prepping for" Had to stop the video I was laughing so dang hard
i love how in the show preppers they all have a specific catastrophe they are prepping for. Like one guy is preparing for dirty bombs, another person is scared of supervolcanos, some are afraid of electrical space rays lmao. Does that in itself prove they are all nuts
That guy isn’t even gonna live for another 5 years anyway
I find it hilarious how the show says “Putin may be making tactical nuclear weapons”, when tactical nuclear weapons by their nature aren’t relevant here.
The tactical part of it means it’s intended to be used with a conventional force and on a small scale, like just an oversized bomb. It’s strategic nuclear bombs you would have to worry about being dropped on you in the US.
I think we all know how the blood got there.
He may be fine, but the person he stabbed isn't doing so great
6:14
This always got me, cause not only did I not have a hard time getting tp, but like if people just hadn’t mass bought all the toilet paper, it probably would’ve been fine
How many people on this show are the same people who were protesting wearing masks?
The fear of nuclear war honestly makes sense if you realize how people in that generation were raised. My dad was one of those kids who grew up doing those drills in grade school. But then again he doesn't live in a bunker.
Idk if you'd get copyrighted for it but I feel like we need Babe playing silently on screen in the back ground 🤷🤣
We never even ran out of toilet paper in my town. They put a limit on how much you could buy at once, but the stores never ran out.
These days this guy might be prepping for the right thing
Only if you’re delusional.
6:05 some people talk about not wanting to be around people and how they rather be at home. This dude actually lives it props to him
Recently found your videos.. love old cringy shows thanks
Just found your channel and it is funny as hell. All these reality shows and the people featured on them are so completely bizarre and ridiculous. Actually kinda scary though that people like this are out there
As a former Marine these people truly crack me up. Thinking they can live underground in confined spaces without driving each other insane is the real scam... you can plan ahead for everything except human nature and psychological frailty. But I guess solitary confinement and sleeping in each other's feces won't bother them at all. And I'm sure the children will be very understanding and be on their best behavior... Lmfao😅
Imagine if it did happen and his bunker is covered by so much dirt and he can't get out.
Diet hack. 😂 I'm just kidding don't come for me.
This guy does NOT seem like the type of person who would survive the breakdown of society as we know it.
I love that isntead of trying to give a full on reality check to these people they just meet them at their level and roast the shit out of their bunkers
Doomsday preppers is gold lol
Great video as always!! Definitely make a video on the one with the kid ready for blood shed.😂
I was sure the economy would collapse from age 11 to 22ish. when you said " I kinda don't want it to collapse". I felt that
Yoo good call on the personalized bell thing didn't notice that before
Man dissing on ancient aliens but that show is mad funny when you’re high
You nailed it I think, at least to some degree. Some degree of preparing is reasonable, and everyone certainly has a right to go all-in, but I also believe that a certain percentage of people actually want these things to happen, and for all of the wrong reasons, much like your "I can drive a car!" zombie apocalypse fantasy. I see the same thing on financial channels with the gold & silver bugs and their equivalent of building the Alamo; "I've got my stacks ready, let the system burn!!!!". A number of them actually think that a USD collapse/hyperinflation would be good because their hope is that their 2 oz of gold and 20 oz of silver will somehow make them the new kings....not realizing that a few ounces of lead will be worth far more if what they wish/hope for ever actually happens.
That intro caught me off guard lmao. I too am wearing a flannel for the exact same reasons, wow!
I just found your channel like a week ago, and you are already one of my favorite RUclipsrs! I've been binging your channel, you genuinely make me laugh my ass off.
When they go on family trips all I picture is Derek from step brothers and his family singing together in the car but, to this song.
