    3 years late, but the ear pain was definitely Tom's own fault. Since his ear protection is connected when he pressed on his left side alone, which you can see him do right before the shot is fired, it created a small gap on the right side leaving that ear unprotected. That's why he's holding his right ear even though the shot was fired by his left side.

    I was on this show as a kid actually because my dad was featured in season 1 episode 10: disaster doesn't wait
    The some odd years earlier my dad had built an underground bunker in the garage with the help of my older brothers. The bunker was for security and storage and that was basically about it, but when the showrunners found us, the fabricated the entire story of it being specifically made for an EMP apocalypse, and had us do a "drill" for the show. Over the course of the show UCS looking at a map playing our route to our boat on the coastline, then proceeding to spend the night in the bunker, leaving the next night, traveling stealthily on foot through the wilderness using my father's military training and experience, making it to the Coast to our boat and driving off before our segment ends
    The bunker was just there for security, the map we were looking at wasn't even our state because we didn't want our location possibly revealed, the nearest coastline is 2 hours away by drive (hiking it would take days or even weeks) and we didn't own a boat, it was rented by the doomsday crew. My dad's "military training" stealth as he was a boat mechanic in the Coast guard.
    The recording happened during third grade and release when I was in 4th, so much of it is fabricated that when we occasionally watch the show we treat it as a comedy

      Take a wilderness survival course instead maybe see if you can do some combat training with the police maybe local national guard or something, I'm sure there's legitimate avenues to do so when you've got the money for apocalypse fortresses and 46000 rounds of ammunition, have a few weapons, stockpile emergency food and medical supplies, have some good camping gear and maintain a rugged vehicle you can leave the road with, that should be fine. You're already fucked if it's a dirty bomb anyway so no need to really worry about that

      Exactly! In my current situation, prepping is unpractical. But in the future and for others it makes perfect sense and is completely reasonable to have a bag with basic supplies and a general idea of what to do, but these kinds of drills and excessive plans and wastes of money are pointless with the amount of different situations that could happen and the low likelihood of needing to put it into place. You need a simple and very flexible plan and a good amount of general survival knowledge, not an excessive and detailed plan that requires everything to go right.
