  • In this video, I talk about a strategy that I think may help you survive and major EMP attack. There are a lot of variables that will determine if you can survive such an attack. The reality is, most people will not survive, even those who use my strategy. I just think, however, the strategy will help increase the odds of survival.
    I can think of just as many reasons why an attack could happen as I can why it will not. But, I want to be prepared nevertheless.

    I moved to Tennessee 2 years ago to a off grid spot 20 miles away from a small town of 500 or less. Went solar, orchard, chickens, pigs, etc not only because of these issues but also so no matter what they do or allow I stand a great chance we'll over 3 years of stored food on site not counting homestead. My point is I did it you can too.

    As a born again Christian my first desire is to introduce others to Christ. If I had life sustaining resources and others did not. The most convincing and compassionate thing I could do would be to share. Share and trust God to provide what my family and myself would need. The only certainty about this life is that no one’s getting out alive. But if I can help people receive life, everlasting in the next world. That should be my highest priority. And it is. Fighting for the kingdom of heaven.

    We prep pretty much exclusively for emp since that tends to cover almost every other potential issue. I keep about 18 months worth of food so that if I have to skip a gardening season we will eat until the next garden harvest. We plant more of our gardening space to feed our small livestock (chickens, Muscovy ducks, meat rabbits) and will bring those animals inside rather than allow them to be picked off by people who can't figure out that eggs every day beats a quick chicken dinner ... same for rabbit litters and clutches of ducks. One litter of rabbits will fill enough pint jars to last us a month, as an example (and yes, I'm well aware you can't rely solely on rabbit meat!!). We hatch out two incubators of chicken eggs to raise for meat as well, and Muscovy ducks provide red meat very similar to beef that is almost completely fat free ... some sort of fat must be added. We have a hand pump for our shallow well along with a rain water cachement system, a three bucket filtration setup, Sawyer and Lifestraw filters along with a Berkey. I built a combo two burner rocket stove/grill/earthen oven/hot and cold smoker on the end of our porch that is under a tin roof and it can be used year round. For heating we have a wood burning stove that can also be used for cooking during the winter. We added a hot water system to it. For cooling, we put in a passive system similar to what is used to control airflow and humidity in root cellars (which I would love, but with a 3-5 foot water table on our property is a no-go) by cutting 6 inch holes on one side of our small home into the floor, and the same on the opposite side into the ceiling. These have 6 inch pvc pipe covered with screen and hardware cloth, and we use pvc end caps to open/close them as necessary. It isn't AC, but it drops the interior temp about 20 degrees with no power required. Our two interior walls are floor to ceiling food storage with paneling doors attached with piano hinges. Yes, it requires moving furniture, but it keeps food from being visible to any casual eye. We cut two holes in our floor, dropped in two chest freezers that have been insulated and have air venting, and use them as mini root cellars.
    We have regular toilets and a back flow valve on the city pipes, but we also have a full sawdust toilet with totes full of sawdust stacked outside. Sawdust is generally free if you have a sawmill nearby and are willing to shovel it yourself. In addition, we have a contained barrel system that will generate compost and is considered 'code' compliant in many states. Sanitation and diseases such as cholera, ecoli, typhoid, etc. will be one of the biggest killers after an emp. Most people have NO clue about handling human waste, and I would urge EVERYONE to purchase a book titled 'The Humanure Handbook'. It is less than $20 and will walk you through setting up a safe system no matter where you live. You can generally set up any of them for under $100. I would also urge you to make sure you have a back flow valve on your sewer line because everyone that uses water to flush their toilet after the city water pumps shut down will flood homes lower than them with sewage. If that happens to your home, you will have to move. It is better to spend the $40 bucks on the valve now and pay a plumber if necessary (check your local codes to see if that is required) than to have your home permanently contaminated and unlivable. Make sure you have some bleach (preferably powder form) that you can use for rinsing dishes and hands as well. Look into family cloth rather than wasting valuable space storing toilet paper. Stock up on soap that you can safely use with gray water for a garden and the means to wash your clothing. That can be as simple as a bucket and new toilet plunder, or a pair of old timey wash tubs and a wringer. Buy clothesline and clothespins!! Invest in a camping solar shower (or several depending on the size of your family) and designate a place you can place them and use them whether that is indoors or outdoors. If you are getting water from a river/stream you should still filter it for the shower. Your skin absorbs more toxins than if you were eating/drinking them.
    Our windows have security film, we have placed several 6 foot planters that have a base filled with concrete and rebar to hold decorative plants and stop vehicles from ramming into our home. We also have thorny stuff planted in areas that we can't see from inside, and our perimeter fence is planted in blackberries, acacia, wisteria, and roses ... over cattle panels. It does require yearly upkeep to keep the wisteria in check, but it also keeps pretty much anything from coming over or through that fence line. We have both electric and non electric alarms that cover our garden, coop, and front yard areas. This summer we have plans to harden the wall area under windows and on the sides of our doors. We have alarms on those, and have swapped out the latch plates and screws on the doors.
    While we do have minimal solar, our goal was more towards requiring as little electric as possible. We have more non-electric tools and kitchen gadgets than anything requiring electric. I can safely can on my rocket burners, and we have both electric and non-electric dehydrating items (and hundreds of Tattler lids in addition to regular lids). I would anticipate that it may be close to 3 years after an emp attack before somewhat normal power is restored, possibly longer.
    The other thing we do have is communications ~ ham, cb, short wave, and walkie talkies that every local family member and friend also have. We have backups now for most of it that are in a faraday cage along with backups of our hard drives, batteries, etc. We don't have a cell phone, just a landline. Communication as well as information is something I consider vital, so we have a good bit of that.
    Stock up a first aid closet ~ not a kit. Think about how many gauze bandages you would go through in a single week for any large wound and buy 10 times what you think you might need. Add in several trauma bandages, at least one tourniquet, quik clot, zip tie closures, alcohol, peroxide, iodine, a suture kit, a dental kit, and a birthing kit in addition to the normal ointments, bug stuff, and bandaids.
    Last, books. How to books. DIY books. Gardening books. Livestock care books. Home canning and hunting books. Etc. Don't download them to a device ~ buy the books! Stay safe out there!

      @@LoneStarPrepping We're in our 60s now and have been living on disabled/military retirement for almost 2 decades. We're living on a triple lot at the edge of a town with a population of 9000+. We manage this because we have consistently lived well below our means. The only real reason I see for most people not being able to do these things is their priorities. We choose where we live and what we spend our money on. In all honesty, what we have right now is far less than the small farm we had before my in-laws needed help ~ but we incorporated all of our prepping that we could when we moved here.
      Most of our preps are cached with no directions or locations listed anywhere in our home or on our property, and only my husband and myself know the locations. Whether or not we survive is in God's hands, but what we have isn't going to benefit anyone that doesn't know how to garden, maintain various systems, raise/care for livestock, or have the years we've put into learning various skills. No one can 'take' those things, and without that knowledge, the most anyone would gain from our demise is a few days/weeks of food. When it is gone, they are back to whatever place they were when they show up. We're both disabled btw, so most of what we do takes longer (and wow I envy the equipment you had/used!).

    SPOT ON SIR!!! I think you're the first RUclips prepper I've seen that actually says the truth about EMP and other societal collapse scenarios. Bugging in may not be an option! So many Preppers think that stockpiling years worth of food and supplies in their home is the way to go. And in some scenarios, that will work. But I think most scenarios bugging in is not going to be the best option, if at all. And another mistake that most Preppers make is that they are vocal about them prepping. They actually talk to others about how they are stockpiling and getting ready for a disaster. I think that's the worst thing of pepper can do is share anything about what they're doing. The bottom line is, we all need to be able to be ready to go on the Run. Yes, stockpiling food and supplies if necessary, but we also have to live in the real world and realize that we may have to leave all that in order to save our lives.

    Your right about the meds. I take 1 that's absolutely critical for me. I plan to speak with my doctor. I've been prepping for years. It's my main hobby. My garage is set up completely for prepping. The main door has not been opened in 15 years. Completely secured. Nobody has a clue. No joke. I'm looking at a pool with cover to set up in my garage at the last minute. 2600 gallons. $120.00. Keep it stored until I need it. I have plenty already but why not? Maybe I will get lucky and be able to fill it. If not I can put it outside and collect rainwater.

    Well done. I am surprised what you covered in 13 minutes.
    It is one thing to prepare, food, water, all of the things, but I believe the most important will be the human factor. I am old enough to have been around during the cuban missile crisis, lived in south florida at the time and still do now. I remember neighbors who had underground shelters installed in their back yards and the conversation was how they would have to defend against their own neighbors trying to enter the small shelters. Really take them out in order to save their own family.
    But even more importantly, I owned a gas station in Homestead Florida when hurricane andrew came over us, virtually destroying everything, no power anywhere for months. I had the only gas station that went on a generator the next day, and ran on generator for 2 months. That first day it was total chaos, looting everywhere, violence everywhere. The police were simply running around with sirens on, not even able to prevent or arrest anyone. The police chief told me, you are on your own. Total anarchy. Full curfew, that really didn't work.
    On the day we opened to do gas, there was over a 2 mile long vehicle line, hundreds of hundreds of individuals with gas cans standing just off the property. When it appeared that we were about to open, there was this mad rush, it took firing a weapon into the air to stop it. Folks were out of control. All of my employees were armed, mine openly on my hip. We ran a tight ship and had some help from an 82nd airborne unit that had bivouacked over night on my property.
    But one wrong move and it would have been a lost cause. All the time we were witnessing full on looting of businesses and homes in the area. You would never have thought that would happen in the usa, but it did and with folks that you were surprised to see doing it and within just hours. This story is very log and shocking, I intentionally kept out a lot of details, you get the picture.
    If you are not prepared, with the full ability to defend yourself and loved ones, with plenty of ammo, then you are not prepared to survive, it's really that simple, you will lose everything and your life.

      @MACvSOG 10 месяцев назад +3

      @@LoneStarPrepping Yeah, the full story would fill a book, maybe I should've written one, as so much of the aftermath of what happened has never been told. Isn't that the way politics and coverups work ?
      Don't have the time this minute, for the full book, but I'll mention one instance, that gives a window into how the government or maybe better aid, certain entities would react if given the power. We had a local authority that wanted a 30 acre parcel our family owned for decades, when the storm hit, they saw the opportunity to condemn the property, trying to put it out of business, so they thought they could grab it. I had to threaten the corps of engineers, a Colonel, with my firearm on my hip, when they arrived with D8's to bulldoze the property on the orders of some local politician. This was a long drawn out battle, they tried over a couple of years to take the property, we spent hundreds of thousands just to keep our own property from the dictators who were abusing emergency orders to become little Caesars. We won, but the moral of the story is not to be complacent with regard to governmental power, it can be and was excessive. There is actually a law, that states the government can confiscate your preps, food and water and evict you from your own property in an emergency, so you need to be aware of those little Caesars.
      If you're interested, let me know, I'll mention more related to what happened in that hurricane.

      I hope nothing ever happens to upset our lives, I really do, but I refuse to just sit by and be ignorant to the real possibility of really bad stuff happening. It's no longer just gas lines, we saw that in the 70's and pretty much just waited for it to be over. Now, if something happens, it will be life changing, the type of event that could end civilization. Still I love life too much to give up and it's easy to prepare, the hard part will be defending your preps and family, that you have to get real serious about.

      People get stuck on the idea of a toilet having to have water....just 'go' outside, in your horse's stall, LOL, etc. if you have one of course. After years of keeping toilet paper in a cabinet in the barn so I don't have to go in the house, take muddy shoes off, use the bathroom, ...... I just use a stall. Then one time when the power was out, I just brought a bucket of shavings in the house to use, works fine. A bale of shavings is around $6, and is useful for so many things. I've stacked them up during a minor flooding even where water was getting into one of the stalls - that was when 3 feet of snow was around the barn and it was getting inches of rain. Just an idea for you from a farm girl.

      @@LoneStarPrepping First off let me say that having warning about events ahead of time ..is priceless!! Prep includes cleaning up objects that could fly away. Stocking up on can goods and snacks for the kids all summer during the season, but we were totally unprepared in my opinion, for the LONG Haul! Our family dynamic at the time consisted of 5 children, 6 adults+1 that came to visit and got stuck here for 2 weeks, and 7 dogs. With stores shut down and no gas stations open nearby, the generator went down after a week. We had one family member driving to Mississippi state line to get us gas..just ridiculous..and then we needed cash. That was gone in the second week. The heat in the home was ridiculous so we practically camped in the shade out back and we had to do laundry until we ran out of soap. hint: laundry items and personal care items are NECESSARY! National guard provided cases of water and MRE's which was great because by the 3rs week we were running out of food . Ice was also provided by national guard . We cook out a lot in the summer so thank goodness we had extra charcoal for the grill! The plan we made was use all of the freezer food and cook out until we no longer could use the generator for the freezer ( we've been forwarded since Katrina in 2005) . Just so many things that we prepped for worked like a charm . All summer long we buy double dog food regularly and we had enough for 4 weeks. It did get a little iffy after that and we had started to ration slowly after the 2nd week. I actually had laundry drying on the fences for all that time . Everyone was prepped, even the kids , when you showered with the hose you will wash your current clothing at the same time and hang it out to dry. And the drippy soapy clothes (lol) was actually hung in some places over areas of the veg garden ! Water was scarce and for keeping hydrated! 4 1/2 weeks..we had relief . So much more ...we learned so much more, that I ever thought possible! #1 - learn to work as a TEAM! And then stay calm .

Added a screened tent because finding bug spray was useless when store shut down. and many more cases of water water and water!

Water is the big thing that scares me.... food we can ration out to 800 - 1000 calories a day (I have dieted like this before for 6 months, it is do-able for adults to save the food for your kids).

I learned trapping and have equipment I made myself - this form of hunting is illegal in my country. I have a river and a pond nearby with fish. I don't have a large family and we can survive for a long time on the supplies we collect. However, after watching your video - antibiotics are something I need to add to my resources. Various creators rarely talk about the need to collect the most basic tools. Without tools, it is practically impossible to build or produce anything. Skills are the key thing imho. Learn how to fish with a trap, learn how to set a trap for a roe deer or a hare, learn how to smoke because you have to collect and get food all the time.

      Within three days people will start depopulating. Then a few days more those desperate for food and water will be weak and not thinking and starting to disappear. Ten days to two weeks water borne diseases will start taking a toll. Those in cities who have won't be willing to take any road trips. 90 days after the numbers of food challenged will begin to disappear. Travel won't be possible after a pulse event because most cars won't run.i just think the folks in the country side face the most serious times soon after the initial event.

    My way of thinking, if you are a parent and you have not started making plans to take care you your family, its not my fault or responsibility to do so when times are hard.
    After seeing the way things are going these days, people need to start planning for an EMP, which is probably the worst thing that can happen.
    You WILL NOT be able to be a lone wolf, you cant conduct 24 hr operations and security on your own. As for sewage, I am on a septic tank for a reason, I will not need to worry about sewage. I will be able to use my toilet by bringing in water from the stream behind my house. I would recommend having 1.5 years worth of food. The reason for that time is if SHTF happens in the middle of summer, you will not be able to grow anything until the next spring, that is possibly 9 months, then wait 3-4 months for the crops to come in. The extra food is just in case you allow others to come in, or the plants dont produce as much as you think.
    I also put solar panels and my power station in faraday bags to help protect those items from an EMP. Good luck in the future.

      Very good points. I made some of those points in the video. I suggested 3 to 6 months of food and water. This would be minimum. People need a place to start. If you have 2 weeks of supplies and a bugout bag, you are better off than 80% of the population. That shows how unprepared people are. I miss living in the mountains. We were on a well and septic and propane. Here is a little video what it was like for us living in the mountains.

I do agree, after 6 months, you wont have to worry too much about a lot of people, most will be gone by that time.

    Assuming you had a functioning vehicle, even after an EMP attack, and maybe even a tow vehicle (truck) and RV set-up . . . HOW FAR do you feel a family could get if they were to bug out? For example, assuming major highways are congested with vehicles and the people have already migrated to the nearest towns, there would be a lot of weaving and attention drawn to anyone driving the Interstate. Conversely, back roads may be a bit safer but will still contain broken down vehicles and small towns may even shut down the two lane hwy in/out. In my mind, a decision would have to be made to bug out NLT 2-3 days after an event and gamble on back roads getting to a destination that is X miles away. Your thoughts?

    Should Powerwalls be covered in a faraday box ?

      If you mean the Tesla Powerwall, I really dont know. I dont know how you would put it in a cage. If it is connected to the grid and or has circuts, it would be vulnerable to an emp, I would think.
