  • All the other preparedness changed m channels seem to be some know-it-all giving a testosterone-fueled sermon about how everything he does it's right. But you just look at the camera and calmly dispense vital information like you actually want to help me. Almost all of that information is opinion, but it's the opinion of someone who has a great deal of experience to draw from. Then you explain that our experience, skill-set, and environment probably differ, so we should educate ourselves accordingly. I love this channel! 5 stars. Highly recommend.

It's good to make walking sticks early on, it makes moving more efficient and safer over rough terrain, but they will give you blisters over time (unless you take your time to make good ones). You can also injure your hands on rough terrain. Taking care of your hands and feet is crucial, and gloves don't weigh much.

  • Where I live it's pretty rainy so stuffing a bivvy bag with leaves isn't very appealing. What I did was bought a closed cell foam mat, cut it a bit narrower, shorter, then cut it into 3 pieces so it fits in my back pack. It doesn't have the versatility of a bivi bag but it must be lighter. Obviously it means you need a bigger rucksack. I carry everything but the kitchen sink, but it 'only' weighs 24lbs. This includes a tent, sleeping bag (the short type that only comes up to your waist, I'll carry an insulated jacket apart from in summer)), stove, cooking pot, gas, wood stove, monocular, fishing kit, wood saw, power pack for phone, solar lamp, phone charger, candle, vaseline + cotton balls, ferro rod, several lighters, sewing kit, gaffa tape, insect repellant, you name it! My rucksack is 50l and weighs 1.5kg (kelty Redwing).

  • In case you can't find tactical survival training in your area, for the trauma and emergency care, you can take an EMR (Emergency Medical Responder), or ECA course. It's basically the Certification course under EMT-B. You'll learn everything from basic trauma care, splinting, shock prevention, medical terminology, etc. You might not want to work in the medical field with the certification you obtain, but you'll become familiar with emergency care. You could always just purchase a used textbook, in case you don't want to take a whole course.

If you are in a situation where you need one, it should be on your hip or at the ready, not stuffed in your bag. This is also a baseline packing list that is applicable to most. It is up to you to tailor it to your skill level and environment. There is no such thing as a one-sze-fits-all checklist for a bag that is applicable to everyone in every environment.

    • This is why I never cared for the idea of separate bags for levels of preparedness that many prepper videos do. I have some decent gear but there's been many times when I found myself in situations where it would have helped but was sitting in a pack or on a shelf at home. Much better to have a versatile pack with kits which can be expanded but will always have the minimum you need. Just as with keeping the gun on your hip, having a tool/supply buried in a pack where you can't get to it or have to search is of zero use. In fact I would say if you have to dig through your gear to find something, 1) you don't know your kit well enough and 2) you brought too much crap.

  • Just read your article on weight versus functionality and price. You really got into it, but I find it refreshing to hear a survival expert say that functional gear that can save your butt is the main criteria. Those who condemn others for not buying the popular stuff seem to forget the main goal is to survive not to impress others. Very insightful and helpful to viewers. Most everything I have was purchased on sale, clearance or brand new from Goodwill. It's not junk mind you, but decent gear and this has allowed me to acquire some equipment I might otherwise not have.

You need your documents (id, drivers license, gun license, passport, land deeds etc), either originals or officiated copies, in waterproof container. You need money in different currencies, also in waterproof container. You need gold. You need semi-expensive waterproof watch for bribing.

  • hands down the best bug out bag i have seen; it is very similar to mine, however i live in an urban environment so fire is a lot less permissive that is intolerant to anything considered a weapon so I have a sillcock key, a swiss army (no multi-tool), no trauma kit, but a great backpackers first aid kit, mechanics gloves and dust mask, and more of hobo layers and a knit hat, contractor trash bags, and a spare pair of socks than a full shelter kit. Remember if you don't have it with you it is useless, in an urban environment it needs to be both light weight and allow you to blend in. For food I have starkist tuna packages and precooked rice, granola bars, and chocolate covered expresso beans. If a policeman or mall cop went through my bad they would prob thing had one or two weird things but nothing would probably get confiscated which is very important due to the nature of problems we face here in urban environments which tend to be more things like riots, natural disasters that take down water and power and transportation.

    • Does that first aid kit include some tourniquets? That's really the off/on switch from a bobo kit to something that'll save lives. They don't do anything for the torso obviously, but they're dead simple to use and stop ANY AND ALL BLEEDING on a limb. They're also perfectly safe for at least 8 hours. I strongly recommend carring at least two in any kit.

  • Sir, thank you for providing these educational videos and your insight. First time when I put my bug out bag together I was practically carrying everything but the kitchen sink and your videos have really helped me streamline my bug out bag to wear almost all of it can fit into a 511 sling bag.

    • I've carried a first aid kit ever since getting out of the army fifty years ago. I've used it while in the woods just about once. But after thinking the whole thing over from scratch, I realized that it really was inadequate for what I needed it for and that it was unnecessary for what it was good for. So I substituted an army field dressing and a few band-aids. My thinking was that the serious injury that I might possibly deal with was either a piercing wound or a bad slashing wound, neither of which my old kit could handle. Even so, I still believe that the most likely serious injury in the woods would be a bad fall and I don't know what you could carry to deal with that, except maybe pain killer. As it is, I've twice had a fall bad enough to see a doctor. But those both happened at home. I've concluded that it's safer in the woods. I still bring along my older kit when travelling and it stays in the car.

  • I sure appreciated this video. I’m a diehard bushcrafter and video follower, but have recently been interested in bug out bags and preparedness. I like how pragmatic your approach is without any drama. I plan to use many of the items you suggest to create my own bag. However, I think I need additional training if I want to be able to appropriately use some of the items in your first aid kit. Again, thank you. I look forward to learning more from your channel.

  • I served in the Marines as a Scout/Sniper. I thought I knew all this. Recently, I started reading the A American book series (currently on chapter 2 of the first book) and was searching the youtube to find what others might have in their packs. I do have a pack, that I call my 24hr pack. It has enough for me to survive for 24hrs and has many of the categories you covered. But no redundancies, no nav, and is probably too heavy. You just earned a sub sir. Thank you for helping me.

Now I can pare down and add a couple things I'd over looked. At 73, I am a bit past my prime but my now past military service and search and rescue training can now be refined with your video info. Thanks so very much. Hopefully the younger generations will make use of the vids also.
