      Some of us have been doing this for decades, and while your video is great at covering most of the stuff you missed some of the important things. 1.) Passport 2.) Spare cash 3.) Destination 4.) Alternate Plan 5.) USB Drive with copies of Important Documents. 6.) Phone numbers and Addresses of Friends, Family and EMS written down. 7.) Change of clothes (with attire that is suitable for bugging out) in a separate bag.

      Andrew, I have a question about survival: what about digging for shelter? Is there ever a situation where digging a small trench is a good idea? I assume not, since I haven't hardly heard anything about it, but I was wondering..If you had a shovel and a pick, would it ever make sense to dig a man-sized trench, cover it, and use it for shelter? (Let's limit it to the context of wilderness survival, not trench warfare or people trying to harm you).

    One thing I've noticed with bugout bag videos is noone talks about clothes, if you're caught wearing shorts, a singlet and open toe shoes and grab that bag you're going to be left short. In a bugout situation clothes and footwear has to be part of the prep and not just expected that you have that already.

      Great video. Just remember one other thing- extra RX glasses/readers/RX sunglasses- from a guy that wouldn’t be able to shoot my foot without a pair. Also basic Tylenol/Advil/RX migraine or excedrine Migraine - go to your family Doctor or Doctor friend and get some RX Antibiotic-oral/child and slowly get some daily med like high blood pressure, heart, diabetes! Etc- get same friend MD to RX or you need to slowly be saving five or so from each monthly bottle when possible. Run out of this, think Diabetics or people with high blood pressure, sugar or pressure goes through roof, then nothing on any list will be needed after that. This part coming from a MD, certainly no expert and had only about half of the items he listed on this video. Just my two cents.

    For food, do not underestimate the value of a bag of hard candy. It is shelf stable. Each piece is 5g of sugar to help keep you going. Some electrolyte can help cover the flavor of the iodine or other treatment tablets - this can be really helpful for getting kids to drink treated water.
    For the navigation kit, having some kind of optic to be able to view and recon an area can be very helpful. A pair of 4x to 8x binoculars is really helpful for getting an advanced view of things you'd prefer to go around.
    For the tools, some way to cut metal is really helpful in an urban setting. Often you do not need to cut a padlock, you can just cut the hasp or latch it is attached to. A hacksaw blade or a sawsall blade in a keyhole style handle can go a long way to getting you into or out of some urban places. Also, zip ties are remarkably helpful for making quick lashings.
    Some clothing items might be helpful for stashing in the kit - most people are not dressed for a 20-40km march at all times. Good walking shoes that lace up. Spare socks. Gloves. Hat. Scarf or schemagh.
    Cash. $200 will get you into or out of most places in the first world.

      Cash is a good idea for regional issues you can get away from with relative ease. For more widespread or national issues, the most valuable part of carrying cash is it's use as a fire starter.
      Essentially, if the situation is bad enough that people are looting/rioting (which is the type of situation you may consider bugging out of) your cash is practically useless in that area.

  • @tarinindell8217
    @tarinindell8217 Před 7 měsíci +16

    Good video.
    One thing that is important to note is that we do need to prepare for unforeseen circumstances.
    For example, what if you get to your bugout location(s) but it is somehow compromised.
    Having those metal containers to boil water would help you extend the use of your bag beyond the planned timeframe for movement.
    Thats also why i like to see that you included a more robust sleep system. Too many throw in a SOL Escape Bivy and call themselves covered.
    One additional thing id like to see in your kit is a small and minimal food procurement kit.
    Yes, stopping to fish, trap, or hunt is the last thing you want to be doing during a bugout. However, if you get to your new home and it isnt home anymore, and you run out of alternate locations, you need SOMETHING to be able to help provide calories to keep going after a week or two

    I'd like to make a suggestion. You might consider installing a Sawyer mini just before the mouth piece on your drinking tube. This will allow you to run the tube over your shoulder and inside your clothing to protect the filter from freezing in cold weather. It also prevents the larger Sawyer from chafing on the bladder and saves a little room inside your hydration carrier or ruck witch ever you choose. Thanks for the info.

    I've always thought that one of the most important items to have in a go bag is $300 in 10s and 20s. With that you can buy things (gas, etc.) when the power goes out. It can also be useful to get people to help you if you get in a jam. For my go bag I forgo the big sheath knife for a camping hatchet which to me is a more useful tool for shelter building and as a field expedient weapon.

And if money is no good Gold will get you killed. Why, simple small bills means you have little money. Gold means your rich.

Trading isn’t always that easy, maybe you want something from someone else, but they need nothing from you at that moment. Cash would surely stay handy for a while. Cash could even be that scarce that it could be worth more than it is in normal situations.

    May I recommend a couple of items, principally because of the possibility of an finding yourself in an Urban Environment, I would add a pair of Goggles, and at least a Respirator Mask, (Gas Mask, if you can afford it). I have been in a town when a riot broke out and the wife and I would have loved to have these items with us while we were trying to get back to our car to get out of the town. Sometimes, the police will use tear gas or pepper spray to do crowd control or in our case, the crowd used tons of bear spray on people. My wife and I saw it and used the back door of the store with others in that store to get out, but the amount of Pepper spray in the air was choking and made our eyes tear. Just a Thought.

    Sir, T Y again, Skipper! In a chaotic evacuation situation on foot, people will sometimes encounter lost young children, often shepherded by a virtually possession-less young woman who speaks no English, as have I. Well-concealed extra cash may take priority in the kit. Add to that what you may carry stuff that the opposite gender may require, that you do not. Folding toothbrushes, dental floss don't take up much room , but come in very handy. Let us just use our imagination and add some compact stuff that may work to multi-purposes.
