Half the American people or more couldn't walk 4 miles...... Moderate fitness is a must.
And thats without all the gear.. lmao
I probably will die for long walk with health issue.
I remember when I was 13 and walked 12 miles a day (roughly) with 64 pounds. 3 days.
I walk for 6 mins every day
I am 80% disabled but not too proud to crawl if need be
I noticed that many youtubers who have bug out bags leave one thing that in my opinion is very important for a bug out situation which is extra space. The idea of a BOB is to have the basic essentials to survive, but if the opportunity arises to obtain more gear, food, ammo, water etc. , you need space to put it in, if your back is choc full, you will have no space. And having a tightly packed bag comes with another problem, if you are in the middle of going through your pack and a situation comes and slaps you in the balls, you need to quickly pack your bag back up and take off, which is hard to do if your bag requires Tetris skills to pack. Just my two cents but I hope it helps someone.
Mistero Gee I hadn't thought of that , thx for the tip
Good point. I try to keep 20% of my BOB free and open.
Mistero Gee I
Mistero Gee your right if you don't have extra space it will slap you in the balls, steal your girlfriend, rain spray tan, and getting roasted from the quite kid in class
Lol
Mistero Gee thanks
Interesting to note that you included binoculars. There is a reason why military officers carry them. They extend your visual reach and help you avoid walking into trouble. They also save you from doing extra walking while searching for valuable resources. They are an under appreciated survival tool.
Binoculars are a must 😂
Instead of the 5 hour energy you can get a bottle of caffeine pills. You can get 200 caffeine pills that are 200 mg (equivalent to two cups of coffee) for around 8 bucks.
Caffeine just makes you crash.
5 hour energy gets you noided asf bro
My father taught me to save our dryer lint for the fire starting kit. Man, does that stuff catch quickly, and cheap!
We save it and use it in our wood burner.
Use steel wool and a 9 volt battery
That's exactly why the most common cause of house fires is a lint trap that isn't cleaned!
I also save 9 volt batteries and steel wool
unless youre washing FR and Nomex gear dont use the lint from those loads as firestarters... learned that the hard way
I have a zippered kit for just about everything. That's why I like big pockets. Everything is colored coded. Easy to grab whatever I need. I learned it from urban prepper. Keep a list of everything in your bag it's an easy way to check to see if you've missed anything.
Loooooove the color coding idea!!!
Thanks!!!!!
I also carry an Etool in my pack so I can dig out little water trenches around my camp site to force rain water away from my camp or tent. Also good for many other uses
Also wanna note a tip for anyone interested. It's good to have things organsied in bags like shown in the video, but essential fire kit should not be packed together in the same room/pouch. The reason why is that if you drop that pouch, you're going to have a lot of trouble with starting fire. This applies to any item important for survival.
Consider a few more essentials:
- spare pair of eyeglasses
- super glue (not just for repairs -- it was invented to close wounds)
- mil-spec signaling mirror (a glass one you can aim) and Morse code cheat sheet
- wool cap or balaclava to keep your body's CPU running
- anti-diarrheal medicine (more important than fixing cuts and bruises)
- loud whistle or air horn
- beeswax candle (other candles put out fumes not suitable for use inside a poncho/tent)
- tools that actually work (what if you need to penetrate a chain link fence?)
I also keep a spare pair of gloves, socks and headwear.
Shot of penicillin is hard to get, bottle of fish amoxicillin can be had for 30$ with no prescription or anything.
Just to clarify something, but super glue was accidentally invented when an engineer was attempting to develop a new type of material for airplane canopies. But yes, Super glue is quite useful to have.
you sir, are definitely not a zombie!
Moleskin is handy.
You should do a bug out series where you bug out overnight and test your system.
Have you ever watched the RUclips channel survival Lilly? She does overnight and survival bug out situations great Channel highly recommend!
+g.i thanks for the channel
DeePsix lol for what? He already gets a kick back from all the advertising he does.
DeePsix true
I found Lilly and am glad my wife kicked me out of the house
You should add some bottle caps, for buying things.
Joshua Perry nice fallout reference
A settlement needs help. Here, I’ll mark it on your map.
I do agree. Trading will turn down to metals and other things people can use
I don't remember typing this.
Hahahaga
If all the viewers are rich they can buy all that nice quality stuff, but until they win the lottery they will do as I do,, buy what you can afford, and it will be heavier, larger, but you will find works as good or even better than the name brands that rich folks must have. This man is a good man, he has helped so many folks.
BUT don't be bummed if you don't have all the name brands. Learn how to use what you have, and stay alive and keep your family's safe and secure. You can use your head and do fine. Never ever get used to not having any thing happen, cause sure as hell it is going to be right around the corner.
Crazy Horseaz good advice
Well said mine is a back pack i baught at meijers the most expensive thing i have in my pack is an 80 dollar full tang knife with a fire steel a knife is the most indispensable tool u can have
Spot on. Get what you can. I've got a lot of bulky and heavy stuff. I've got it loaded up onto a trailer hitch cargo carrier in the garage. It's on a shelf that puts it at the same height as my car's receiver hitch. I just have a compact sedan with virtually no towing capacity, but it's plenty for a cargo carrier.
I might have to figure something else out if I'm "on foot" for some reason (eg. EMP disables car). But for the most part, if I'm bugging out, I'm driving out of my neighborhood.
Yes agreed, that backpack he suggested is $200 alone.
My daughter just walked 1000 miles of the Pacific Crest trail, one invaluable item was a solar charging panel for her cell phone.. cell phones having so much capability these days, GPS, internet, light, data storage.
Steve Miller yet when shit breaks loose I don't think Internet companies will keep working.
Steve Miller My buddies and I use a solar pannel and a 22000mah battery bank and a set of usb lights to keep our sites lit. We charge the bank during the day and use the bank for our phones, lights, headlamps, etc.
how much time does it take ?
When the SHTF you will need to lose the cell phones and go black. Leave the cities and leave civilization in general. Also walking with a 60 lb ruck is not practical. Be a minimalist.
dude, just....why.... not SHTF situation need to go black. hell communication is important as fuck its not like some country will attack america, that has the largest military and the largest armed civilian.
Hello Sir, one thing I was always taught was to carry different types of items in several spots. If you keep all your fire items in one bag and lose that bag, then you are doomed. Just wanted to put that out there. Love the video! :)
I totally agree and posted something similiar.
It seems to me that most 'preppers' are preparing for some 'grid down' or 'nuke exchange' event. To my mind, they are looking in the wrong direction and are not seeing what has snuck up behind them. I'm talking about 'agenda 21,' and the covid vaccine. I believe, that if you are a 'prepper,' and you've had the covid vax....then all the prepping you've done is a waste of time.
He said he usually carries a bic in his pocket
Yes that’s a very good reminder
Fire kit in particular. The trick that I use is to have my main fire kit, but then in my cooking kit I also have an additional small fire kit that is there just for contingency.
Wow! Watching this made me think of two things: 1. I am totally unprepared if an emergency would happen and I had to evacuate my family immediately. 2. There was stuff in here that I never would have thought of. Excellent video! Thanks for the information.
Have you got a setup dialed in for your family now?
@@wmluna381 I think so. We have taken steps to prepare for the unthinkable.
I look at the bugout bag as more of an emergency kit for hurricanes, earthquakes, or other things. That's also how I sell it to everyone else to get them to get some basic preps on hand.
21:32 "If you can survive the first 72 hours.... your chances of survival increase dramatically." Guys come on... nobody else heard this?
Thanks for all the very useful videos. I built an ifak from one of your videos and two days ago a diabetic co worker whose sugar dropped he fell and cut his head. I ran to my car, got my ifak and gave him a honey packet, cleaned and bandaged his forehead. He was very great full for it. I want to thank you again for helping me be prepared for any situation. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Thomas! Way to go being prepared~
After putting my bob off for years, finally decided to get it going, so far I have the 5.11 72hr rush bag, I have a good r rated sleeping pad, a hex cut tarp, and ground sheet for the tarp, and also have a light weight fleece liner and down puffy blanket, living in Colorado where it gets windy and temps can get cold I wanted my first priority to be to have a good shelter for protection against the elements. More or less the rest of my bag will be set up similar to yours. Love the fire kit and edc kit.
Hey give me the info on where you acquired the warm sleep gear please
I love the clear & concise way you speak. I normally watch RUclips @ 1.25x the speed, but with you I have a comfortable viewing experience even at 1.5x the speed.
After 25 years of back country hiking and many of over nighters there is one item I very rarely see in a bug out bag. An item so crucial that you have to have expierence missing an item like it to really appreciate it! It is a full body rain suit. Not a Walmart special either. More like a $2-$300 high quality one. So many times I have gotten caught in a downpour before I could get my tent or hammock up. If it's in the fall or winter then tempiture is sure to drop. Campfire is usuall out of the question! Within a minuite you can be 100% protected and dry to then focous on putting up a tarp and hammock. Which by the way is another must have item! It gets you off the cold wet ground fast!
Even a cheap Wal-Mart one is better than not having one.
I have a full bodied poncho I keep in mine. Granted, my bug out suit is also water resistant. That way I have enough time to pull it out of a pocket and throw it on.
I have heavy duty rain pants and a heavy duty poncho - both on the outside of the main pouch. Unbuckle the waist band and chest strap, swivel the pack around on one shoulder, pull the poncho and pants out with the other arm, swing the pack back and re-buckle it. Put on the poncho first, the pants second (critical to have pants that will go OVER your footwear). I timed it - less than 30 seconds for full coverage . . . of course this assumes my pack doesn't weigh 80 or 90 pounds!
@@emburgess7186 - Not really.
I agree with your statement but I would add: socks, socks, and more socks.
this firestarter can light thousands of fires thats like 3 years worth good thing you have several of those
Went through my bag last night and found my brand new bic lighter never used not working. Always check your gear and have a backup !
Great video! Thank you for listing all of the items that you recommend and put in your bag and the reasons you put them in!
I"ve been carying my BOB on my when I go hunting or even hiking just to get use to the weight and feel of carrying it through rugged terrain, Can't tell you how many times I've needed the contents inside it.
Thank you for your insight. I've always appreciated your videos. For those of you who can't afford high-speed, I'd like to suggest LA Police Gear 3 Day Backpack. 2590 cu. in. for $30 (+ sh) VS 2250 cu. in. for $200. Granted, not as tough, but certainly tough enough.
Watching this again, thanks to Corona!!!!
Me too
same
Watching again, thanks to the riots!!!!
@@alexterrel9594 ...I'm watching again,Thanks to the upcoming November elections! Lol!✌🤓
Serious hell coming for us white westerners, get prepared.
One good idea, when preparing any bugout bag, is to make sure you have a checklist in the bag, so you know what's in it!
I do this with my bag. I do full inventory checks at least once a month
The information is always well thought out. But my favorite things about your channel over other "preppers"? The introductory music, the close (God bless America, long live the republic"), and how crazy you are!! :)
Currently using a Bergan of Norway internal framed. Military contract bag that my best guess on volume is between 35-40L. The closet equivalent would be a Snugpak sleeka pack. Everyone has their own why to carry items on or in a pack. My personal preference for a pack is nothing attached on the outside the pack. Moving through heavy brush will get you hung up possibly forcing removing the pack. Only exception is attaching a sleeping mat under the pack. I never put the mat under the top flap behind my head. Firing a long gun in the prone with anything on the top pack pushes down on your head while aiming.
Well here it is 2020 4 years later and this is still by far the best bug out bag video i have seen to date. Thanks for all the ideas .
I saved this video as I took a LOT away from this! There were a few things I wouldn’t have thought of. As soon as you showed that stove I did some researching and saved it to go back and look at later. That stove looks great to have. Keep up the great work!
When I heard that music at the beginning, I thought it was going to be a video about prepping for a leprechaun uprising! Lol
This has been a great down to earth and practical video, your bug out bag is decent. I would probably carry the water canteen on the waist belt though
You’ve earned my subscription
Your videos are also so detailed, informative and well though out. Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge sir.
I'm just starting out on this journey. Thanks for the info and organization.
you were my first subscriber scootch
I'm finally getting content up and appreciate you subscribing way back and the encouragement you gave me I as always enjoy everyone of your videos
I learn something new from everyone
Thanks Brother! Keep inspiring people to be prepared.
preppers will never not be able to open a bottle
The okie hunter: you can open a bottle with a Bic lighter, a key also ive mastered the art of opening a bottler with my teeth
Fire starter? Dryer lint, those paper egg cartons, and candle wax. All waste items in my home and they make a damn good fire starter. (Put the dryer lint in the egg carton and dip the whole thing in candle wax) can be used as a candle or just throw the whole thing into the base to start a fire.
Also useful fire starter (if there are any around anymore) are the wood shavings from inside a pencil sharpener. (might even be worth it to buy a sharpener just to make a bunch)
I keep several mason jars packed really full of dryer lint in several places. You can always de-compact the lint and only use a bit, if you want. The mason jars will have other uses once the lint gone.
I'll try this!! Thanks JJ
Great information, the out takes was really a great way to lighten up the situations you have described. Thank You
Love your channel, I like that you talk about the basics, but still give advice.
When I first started preparing a go bag for each member in our family (maybe 7 or 8 years ago) I fell into the trap of buying all of these maxpedition storage bags etc. The problem with that is they are extremely heavy when all of the different bags are added together. No doubt maxpedition has extremely nice products, but all of the interior organizers I found to be unnecessary. You can cut out a lot of weight and bulk by considering one of several other options.
Excellent video, I learned from Sootch00 that a pack of pencils and a sharpener is some to keep in a pack, pens dry up, run out of ink, freeze even.
And the shavings make tinder/kindlng.
Having your fire starters/etc in several different packs would be good incase you need to ditch part of the pack you still have the essentials.
A few things I would like to suggest... Rand McNally makes laminated folded maps for local, regional or state areas that are water proof and fold easily. I would also laminate hard copies of lists of phone numbers. Important documents such as insurance polices can be placed in a water proof bag.
Great video! My only suggestion would be a ‘rite in the rain’ pen. They can write on almost anything, they write at any angle, and go perfect with the tablet you have. I used those 99% of the time I was in the field or deployed in the Marines, and have nothing but good things to say about them. Keep it up, I love your videos!
Pay attention
Awesome video I really enjoy your channel always learn a lot thanks for the work you put in and I hope one day to meet you and go hiking do some training together lol take care and keep up the great vids God Bless.
Thanks Brother!
This guy DOES have a finely tuned, very nicely thought out, set of systems. Very good.
Best thing you can do is do a week ender. And hike when camping overnight that week end. You will find what you personally and specifically need. And what to jettison. Everybody’s different.
I like the Celtic music
CamJam 312 really i hated it
hollerin back at ya from the smokies of nc good vid let's see inside the emergency kit
Great video. Very informative. A few thingss I've gotta catch up on there... the fuel gels, stove, document copies, and the packing order. Gotta be prepared. Thanks so much, and well done.
great content. love your vids. always down to earth, calm, and informative. I also love the irish music.
It more like ..the wife kicked me out of the fucken house bag for some !
But you forgot the Aerogard in there mate !
ACP for short
Fon Jet, if a "man" lets his wife kick him out he deserves it. He was never a man.
GoldenSnow with all the "likes" on his post, I guess there are quite a few un-self respecting "men" out there..
Fon Jet I got ya to 100 likes mate
Dryer Lint! best free fire tinder :D I got a shopping bag full of that stuff.
My family laughed because I have saved dryer lint for several years. I demonstrated how easy it is to start a fire with it. They quit laughing. Lol
Only if it’s 100% cotton
Watched this video about 15 times in the last year. Never gets boring
My wife said I was crazy making up a bug out bag inc handgun, knife etc. Now that I've got it ready to go I feel better that I'll be prepared as best I can should the SHTF. Thanks for posting the vid, its helped me adjust the contents.
1 roll of toilet paper. 15 lighters and 10 other ways to make fire....
Redundancy is key, except when wiping your ass. Limit one square per visit.
David Sims
you have read this article about yugo civil war? It is pretty informative.
It is good to have that much fire things so you can keep warm and to make your food
Fire is a necessity without a doubt when you are bugging out. Humans went hundreds of years without toilet paper and were made to be able to survive without it. Squat and spread my friend
David Sims 60% of gear that u realy dont need.
Just want to add, that if you're a woman and prepping: obviously add sanitary pads and most important - pain killers. Last thing you want to happen in a bug out situation is not being able to move due to pain.
And a menstural cup :)
@@captaincaveman8080 Not us old cronies.
@@captaincaveman8080 how you're name aint wrong
A menstrual cup is much more practical. Sanitary pads will run out.
My bag has a long way to go but i am working on making it better. Thanks for more ideas. I also just did a test with cotton balls and Vaseline as well as sawdust and candle wax i was happy with how they both worked to start a fire.
Thanks Canadian Prepper 4 your efforts 2 help Public.
Nice, very well thought out bug out bag. I have the same radio in my bug out bag as well, its a great little rig
Thanks Brother~
"You gotta be ready in case life throws you a curve."
Exactly. Like for example, a zombie apocalypse 😒
that is a scientific impossibility
@@religiousabuse its not impossible you'd be suprised..
Now we are living it!! Hellloooo coronavirus
@@religiousabuse The U.S. Government have an official zombie apocalypse survival plan on the FEMA government website. The document have a list of different types of zombies. According to the document, the two zombies that will most likely to happen are radiation and occult zombies. If the U.S. Government and all the other Governments in the world have a zombie apocalypse survival plan, my family and I should have a plan too.
Everything in my bag HAS to be American made and do more than one thing. One thing I really like is my Hill people Mountain Serape. Awesome tool.
Hey good folks, recently I did a 3day dry fast. That's right, three days of no food...no water. We are a lot tougher than we have been taught. It is a mental game.....ask any Navy Seal. That being said, listen to Don as he has been at this for quite some time. Thanks Don. May God bless you with safety, wisdom, and joy.
The most important thing is to do what the military does: Type-up a list of every single item that is in the bag, fold it up and place it something waterproof (I.e, a ziplock bag). It's easy to forget what's in there, or in each compartment, etc.
www.theerwingroup.org
really good idea, be sure to check mark what you used or how much is left so you can replace whats needed without pulling everything out.
This is why it's also important to train with your gear. A list becomes less necessary when you are building your own bag and know where everything is, it's one of the reasons people like bags with lots of compartmentalization. A lot of people by premade emergency bags and think they are good to go, but they don't bother to know where things are in the bag or how to use what is in the bag effectively. Knowledge is equally important to the gear of not more so.
YES. Totally agree. I have 4 BOB and can't remember what I have and where. I know what I have (about) but not sure. Each BOB has a little different content. I NEED to make a list and location. Not like someone said "use it and replace it"...I never needed to use it. I just want to be prepared. I have knowledge and I consider myself handy man and I can improvise, but this BOB is insane if you don't know and remember what and where it is.
I would include a pair of underwear, pants and a shirt as well.
Yes, I would definitely also include a pair of undies and a T-shirt!
T shirt not needed but socks definitely underwear not needed either nice to have but socks is a must
Socks, gloves, and hat are the most important.
I thought about vacuum sealing but once u need to open stuff you are going to need to fit it back in. I would vacuum seal stuff you want to keep dry...fire stuff, tp, extra batteries.
You are right-clothing would be problematic for vacuum sealing. Another potential problem that can come from vacuum sealing your clothing is that it can cause the clothing to lose its breathability-that can result in you being EITHER too hot, too cold, or worst of all, too WET! I would have TWO fire kits-one for ready access, and the second vacuum sealed as a backup. I also like the idea of sealing things like your batteries until needed. I would also suggest dry sacks for everything! What do you think of the food idea I suggested to Sootch?
This is a REALLY good video. Thank you so much. I've watched it before and I will watch it a few more times. Rev
This is good detailed review of a bug out bag. Great idea to use the zip ties backwards to hold things together and for use!
Great kit Mr. Sootch. However, in my bag (which you inspired me to make), I don't use the most expensive stuff for everything, and I don't put quite as many layers of redundancy for fire and things. No judgement at all; we all put together what feels right for us. However, I just use some folded up sheets of printer paper for my paper. I just use a sandwich bag of matches and a few bic lighters as my fire source. et cetera.
Also, I would like to say, that during the recent hurricanes we have been having here in Florida, I grabbed said bag (among other things), and put it in my car to use in case we had any tornados. I was concerned and went to a much better place with a basement. Turns out I didn't need it, praise God.
Perhaps you could make a video on hurricane preps! (I know you have one on winter storm preps, how about summer storms? :D)
Yeah, it looked like SensiblePrepper's bag was very expensive. Mine will be a little cheaper.
Hey saw a few of your other comments. Do you have a good source/video for a starter or basic bug out bag? I have some items but nothing too in depth. Knife, flint fire starter, medical kit, a few led flash lights, knife for cleaning fish, but that's about it. A lot of these bags are so ridiculously complicated surely there's something basic that the average person with not a lot of money to spend can pick up?
When asked, I say...
I am preparing to prepare for the unpreparedness of the preparedless!
A bugout bag, imho, is a bag that your never going back home. So best have long term items in it that are high quality that will last. He put a lot of thought into these items. Only thing I would change is a larger, backpacking bag. Leave empty space for more gear you might come across that’s needed and for weight purposes. (Water, food, ammo etc)
Am an Extra class operator now and have handhelds as well. I have old portable RadioShack solar panels that power 9v transistor radios. I did deep wilderness backpacking in Gila wilderness back home mid 80s. Good job on explaining about pack materials. I have allways carried a go bag as well. Even on vehicles or trucks that I drove. In Santa Fe. EVEN carried tote with food as well.
The rule of 3's also include three months with out socialization.
I have enjoyed that part the most.
I was taught 3 seconds without common sense.
@@garyfoale3707 Thanks for the addition I will remember that.
That's kinda dumb. If you dont socialize for 3 months u arent gonna die
@@larissaleigh4488 humans are social animals...the problem here is that people, like you, lose their minds that ultimately cost them. this is fact, not feeling.
Thank you for the videos I m a beginner I'm halfway done my bag but I need more space . Any ideas. Very informative.
the most important thing you can do is USE the stuff you buy.... learn to start the cotton balls, try to fish, great you catch a fish.... now what! One of things I learned in survival school was how hungry I wasnt after 4 days of not eating; up to and including hunting frogs and not being 'hungry enough' to kill and eat them...
Funny I actually had to use my bug out bag earlier this year when my car got stuck in a ditch in the middle of nowhere. Luckily not for long but it definitely lead to having a peace of mind.
Greetings from England! I have a motto "all things considered" which I apply to my preparedness.
"Having a good light source is important, especially in the dark" 😂😂😂
Hey Sootch, I appreciate the many videos you have made on this subject. I am in the process of making my own bag, I value your reviews and information. I am however finding that it is incredibly expensive to make a fully geared out bag. I am anticipating around $1000. ball park. Is there any specialty store that sells most of these items at discount prices? Thanks in advance
I’m sure you figured it out by now, but for anyone who reads this comment wondering the same thing, there are Military Surplus Stores, there’s REI, Walmart, Amazon. I always shop deals. I may have stuff in my Amazon cart and wait for the price to drop
I loved your outtakes! Thanks for including them!
I like the make shift fishing kit, thanks for that idea,definitely gonna put my fishing strung on something similar
What make flint and steel fire striker is that I can never find a decent one.
in your video you say "3 minutes without air" just curious as to why there isn't a gas mask/paint mask in your bag. like something from 3M?
SHALOM.....
SO GREAT TO SEE Y'ALL'S CHANNEL TODAY FROM BLOODY HARLAN KY.
BLESS U AND FAMILY.
THIS IS THE GREATEST ENTERTAINMENTING SHOW ON RUclips.
🛡🇺🇸🌟📜🌟🇺🇸🛡
Wow, finally a RUclips that isn’t talking about complete nonsense, I really do love this video, everyone always says to leave ur house as soon as something goes wrong but it’d be way better to hunker down where ur fam, and just go out for supplies, thank you for this video !
I hope all you preppers realize that waltzing around in populated areas post-SHTF with the big, tempting, bulging, bags of goodies is going to get you killed.
Red Cross insignia visible on the outside of the bag? May as well be a bullseye.
If someone is desperate enough that theyre going to kill you for your gear I doubt they care what style backpack youre wearing
No one's going to be"waltzing" around that knows what there doing and isn't morbidly obese.
90 percent of America can't walk a mile without problems.
Survival situations aren't a problem for the physically fit and prepared.
SHHHHH!! Don't tell them that. I need these easy targets around for when I need to resupply.
true.. having a tactical appearance can bring all kinds of unneeded attention
@@tstratto14 lmfao!😂👍
Bug out to where? Try finding a place to even sleep in your car where no one bothers you, much less camp out. This is a pretty crowded country with surprisingly few places where you're not confronted for trespassing.
Prepare to have your gift bag picked clean walking past any frightened people in desperate need, just like you.
If you have to travel any further than the distance between work and home - you're screwed.
Now this is the important part:
_If you live somewhere you need to bug out from, you're already set up to lose unless you have your travel plans fully developed to the point you know exactly where you plan to find refuge along the way._
That means making a few practice runs on your bug out route(s), actually bugging out.
If you haven't done that at least once, you aren't prepared to bug out anywhere.
Actually good advice which I aim to do. Thanks.
It all depends on the scenario you're anticipating. I don't account for EMPs because I think they're very unlikely, at least at first. So, I plan on having a running car. I know where I'd go. It's about 50 miles from my home. I know various routes to get there, including off-road terrain that my car can handle. I know the owners of the property very well and, while I haven't been given explicit permission to head there, my family and I would be safe there. That being said, I know of several other places that are not secure that would make sufficient temporary shelter.
Pro tip: if you're planning on trespassing, know what to expect. For example, it's much safer to squat in a foreclosed, bank-owned house in a rural town than to set up a tent on the outer edge of 80 acres of private property where the owner might be at home.
@@---cr8nw 50 miles isn't bad. Even if your car is stolen or the roads jammed, that's just a 5 day walk. In a car, an hour - or five, depending on congestion. If you have your safe sleeping spots figured out, you can do it.

I dont see a compass in this pack
There's a Compass in the Survival Tin. Thanks
A compass is definitely good and it does not come with weight or take to much space. But a person of experiance of being in the nature can do pretty good without a compass. You have signs in the nature of the direction like the compass.
This is GREAT to watch, & watch, & watch again! Two thumbs up!!
The bloopers still get me. Thanks for the smile, Sootch.

Put a sock in it, dont tell!
standard zipties are reuseable. You just have to learn how to open the lock. I have to use a tool, Screwdriver or knife, My dad does it with his fingers and I can't get that. But Yeah, Their reuseable.
Have you ever tested the expandable cloth? I tested one and it took around 8 hours for it to expand to the point where I could pull it apart by hand but it was ripping because the inside still wasn't wet/expanded.
Watching this in 2021 and this is the best survival bag I've ever seen.
Finally got t o watch this in full, still very viable information in 2019. Thank you!
Hey sootch what happens if shtf while I'm at school and I don't have access to my bug out bag
Timothy Jay Gunnoud, that's why you have a small "get home" bag in your car with just the essentials so you can get to your other gear. If you don't have a car, compile a survival tin that can fit in your pocket as an edc tin. Hope that helped.
Rozco 0189 can't take one to school!
Bring your ar-15 to school that way you will be protected while you go get your bug out bag at home
water bottle should be of metal not plastic.
