- Bug-out bags/survival kits are a controversial topic. Everybody has a different philosophy about what makes a good one. This is Brent's. While bigger and heavier than a lot of the bags you'll see online, you can keep it in the closet by your front door or the trunk of your car, and you'll be prepared for an emergency that could last many days. Brent's kit doubles as a slick backpacking setup, so you'll get to know your gear extremely well, and you get to have fun with it, too.
Tech writer Brent Rose is on a quest. With a surplus of emerging technologies and scientific discoveries popping up how do we separate facts from hype? Brent takes the goods out of the box-and out of the office-to find out how the new wave of cultural phenomena really holds up.

How to Pack for the Apocalypse | OOO with Brent Rose - Věda a technologie
Things I learned today:
1- humans need water to survive
2- good survival gear costs money
3- I will not survive the apocalypse
XD
#XD
Just dont come in my way after u become a zombie
You just need food for a number of days till you start getting good at hunting. Just hunting in general really. And start a homestead or travel to a already made farm.
ha ha ha. But for real, who WANTS to survive the apocalypse anyway? Its the end of the world. No one survives. The sooner you go the better when faced with the apocalypse is what I say.
This is gonna sound stupid, but I think you should also put a deck of cards in there. maybe a small journal and pen. They hardly take up any room, and I find them actually pretty important.
If you end up being on your own for a while, or even just with 1 other person. It's important to keep yourself sane. A little entertainment or something to do can be very important. Being out in the forest for a long time with nothing to do can easily make someone go crazy.
Cear that's not crazy, its important
A lot of people forget about entertainment
yeah, Remember that real life movie about israeli tourist lost in the Bolivian jungle. People lost their mind very easy
Companies make all plastic playing cards which are completely waterproof and very durable
Things like cards are often referred to as sanity items and welcome in alot of kits.

Just wonderful, I have been researching "disaster supplies" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Reffailarly Translucent Preparation - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my brother in law got great results with it.
"personally I feel pretty protected with my slingshot and my taser" Gets Robbed by a boy with a gun the first day
Ahh, but you see there is method in his madness. He is packing so heavy that whoever mugs him won't be able to carry everything.
You’re still out ranged by a gun, also what if you run into a wild animal such as a mountain lion or a Bear. What’s your slingshot gonna do against a bear or a mountain lion. Personally I think you should have both forms of defense lethal, non lethal, close ranged and long ranged.

*how to pack for the apocalypse if You're rich*
This is probably commiefornia so this is actually pretty cheap for those losers
Best title ever
If you’re a backpacker you already have all of this stuff.
every sport is expensive. personally i'd ad a mountain bike to this this kit. thats about 3000$ but you can cover a lot of terrain with it. oh and guns, lots of guns.
@Arthur Morgan you need both bruh.
the leftists dont want weapons but those special snowflakes and feminists are gonna be my first meal in the apocalypse!🔪
Hockey tape - doubles as medical tape, sticks to anything, it's strong, does not unstick when wet and can be spun into shoelaces and/or used for all sort of other wonderful things - for what a role weighs it's crazy not to pack one

Мала д
flex tape lmao
Seriously it has those capabilities?
Wow I’ve never thought of that pretty cool
you REALLY need a self-charging light dude... don't count on duracell during the apocalipse
And never count on sheriff's out in the boondocks. As it is many are corrupt druggies..
He has one, on the radio with the hand-crank. And the other one can be charged via the solar-panel.
@@DrakeKillah breh solar panel if you stay inside the bunker only outside of your houde
Luci light that you can charge by sun or usb is a great buy. The regular outdoor 2.0 is phenomenal if you have another light to complement it
both
I'd suggest the water bottle be metal so you can use it to treat water as well as drink
I was on the fence about that, and it's not a bad way to go. Personally, I really like have a clear bottle with gradation lines, especially if I already have a pot for boiling water, but yes, a metal bottle is also a solid way to go.
Brent Rose the metal bottle can also get hot!
so be aware of the temperature of the outside of the bottle. not really a big issue but a metal can, is a upgrade compared to plastic....
grilin18 make sure if you get a metal bottle that it's capable of boiling water / being exposed to a flame. Most aluminum bottles have a plastic liner inside so that's not good... But your typical stainless or titanium bottle is simply polished on the inside and out.
Personally i like the idea of a 1 qt boiling pot /cup, as these can often be used as the storage for your stove and fuel (if you're using propane/butane) and any and all cooking/eating utensils in one kit. And these are typically made with handles on the outside so they'll be just as good for making your morning coffee as well as making a stew.
grilin18 also don't get a double walled metal bottle it will explode.
You can treat water in a clear bottle using UV rays but it's time intensive.
I think antibiotics and painkillers are missing! not heavy but very usefull!
I have been thinking about this; but antibiotics are difficult to obtain.
@Grey Scout Tactical. I will try ask my doctor for this. I will bring you an update in the future. Please wish me luck.
@@LisaAnn164 You can lie if needed and tell the doc what you had got ruined you slipped opening the bottle and into the toilet or something.

Important note: For those carrying guns in their packs, make sure that you know that gun inside and out. You should be able to take it down to the screws and put it back together again quickly. Also make sure you have the care tools for that particular firearm, such as bore-snakes, ramrods, jags, brushes, cleaner and oil. Filthy guns eventually rot and a rotted gun is just a club with a lot of moving parts. Another thing, 50 rounds sounds like a lot but it's really not. 200 rounds is a fun day at the range. So pick a caliber that has a good balance between stopping power and ammo portability. In an end of world scenario, 9mm would be ideal for those two factors as well as the fact it's an incredibly popular caliber (with firearm enthusiasts and the police) so there will be a lot of it for a long time
And for the love of all that's holy TRAIN WITH IT. That gun won't do you any good if the first time you use it is in a defensive situation. Guns aren't like in the movies or video games, and you are not Nathan Drake. Guns are a very personal thing. I am former competitive marksman, but I can't hit squat with a gun I've never used with sights that are set for someone else. Every shooter has specific needs for their firearm in order to perform optimally, so don't just go buy one and shove it in the pack. This is especially important if you plan on carrying it in a holster, milliseconds matter and the more time you spend fiddling with the strap the less time you have to actually aim and fire properly and not waste all of your ammo. Do yourself a favor and leave the "Pray 'n Spray" to the shotguns and sub-machines.
You know to much about guns
PS90 is good because it holds a lot of ammo also its easy to disarm it just in like 6 seconds
I don’t think you need to “take it apart to the screws” most basic field strips will do the job and are way easier no point losing any small parts if you don’t have to
@@blakedavis2447 this is completely true, I was just trying to get my point across about knowing the gun you own.
@@ravenmadsboneyard5233 thanks for not being argumentative, I’m a gun person too and as long as I can keep the barrel clean I feel like that’s 99% of what’s needed generally speaking
You forgot the sewing kit. Those clothes need patching up!
That’s actually really smart
I feel like that might be in the first aid kit
Ditch the fishing rod and grab a gill net you're talking about survival no need to be sporting about it. If a ranger decides to fine you for using it, well your saved.
Nice tip. Yeah, in a survival situation...
I see what you did there!
The auto fisher or yo-yo fisher are pretty cheap, and they can double as a snare for catching small game too.
I see someone here also watches alone
Maxwell Li Rarely would people have any luck on the gill nets in alone. All the winners used make shift poles for the most part.
The more you know, the less you carry.....the less you know....the MORE you carry!!!!
you're awesome mate
somehow i had this in my mind but could never explain this to my people. You summed it up so well
Remember ounces lead to pounds and pounds lead to pain. Try to keep you pack as light as you can.
A homeless dude thought me that
@@sevnlight6313 , yeah and those guys are good with networking
A pack is great but water gets heavy real fast if you are carrying 5 days worth, as well as your camping gear etc. I would recommend adding one of those luggage bags that have wheels or some sort of personal shopper cart dolly unit to hold the heavy stuff. Obviously a luggage cart or shopper cart that has tiny 1 inch wheels will not do, you need a nice big set of wheels like 4-6 inches at least to make hauling comfortable. Make your own cart! Harbor Freight has great and cheap wheels!
@John Taylor sure, don't take as much stuff as you possibly could.... genius
this is less for apocalyptic scenarios and more for a normal backpacking trip minus the bear box
😂😂😂👍
Think of it as surprise camping
That’s a lot of sponsors.
Glock didn't sponsor thats why he doesnt believe in carrying a gun

UMN Mode true, but i guess it depends on what kind of apocalypse we’re talking about. Like i’ll probably won’t be able to outrun aliens in the first place.
Who would want to though honestly
@@no_peace When you are put on the spot you're gonna want to survive.
Never bring a sling shot to a gun fight.
not all countries allow guns
That slingshot is against the law here, but guns are not.
Interesting. where is that?
don't go to gun fights
Slingshot is better for hunting than a gun, unlimited amount of ammo.
who else is watching but never gonna buy this stuff?
True though
Meee

Always put your stuff in a strong waterproof packet which can be destroyed by water for example : money, phone numbers, radio, phone etc .

Pictures of family. If you are separated you will be able to use them to help find them. "Have you seen this person?" Also pictures with you and your immediate family. So you can prove costody of your child/children. "I don't think they are yours you just want a slave." "No see they are mine."
Or “Pictures of Lilly”, if you know what I mean.....
It's also a moral booster people can have all the equipment and knowledge ever but if they have nothing to live for then they won't survive even a small picture of a loved one can make a huge difference
@@urzu7 I prefer cave drawings.....
@edoge183No, YOUR comment is dumb. Even FEMA recommends having photos of yourself with your family and even your pets to prove "ownership" or "relationship." You sound like a dullard. Perhaps you should be spending your time watching Teletubbies videos.
Most of all make sure to take a camera so u can take pictures of them with urself so they dont realize they are ur slave
Also: *MAKE SURE TO PACK YOUR BAG IN THE RIGHT ORDER!!!*
Trust me, you do *NOT* want to be digging through/unpacking your whole bag to get to your waterproofs/snacks when you've been hiking all day, especially through rough terrain. Follow the order he puts them into the bag.
(No I wasn't the idiot who did this, my mate did it on DofE and it was hilarious to watch, but I imagine she didn't enjoy it too much)

Ok....... he starts off by saying he can't see spending a lot of $ on gear he may never use, then starts talking about 400$ backpacks, 130$ sleeping pads and 550$ sleeping bags. Asinine. You can gear up with military surplus just as well for fractions of those prices. And yes, you can still camp with the stuff.... armies all over the world do exactly that.
This video is out of touch with the realities of common folks. A well-meaning trendy pushing stuff most people cannot afford to buy. No offense to the man, but this is not a fit for most folks these days. Oh, and please don't strike a ferro rod with the sharp side of your knife, if damages the blade. Use the spine. Also, why spend 500$ on a backpack but 12$ on a knife? What?
I finally bailed when he said "between my knife, stun gun, and slingshot, I feel pretty well protected." Oh, God... glad he wasn't caught in the aftermath of Katrina.
Ok, gotta go. If you're a trendy with a lot of cash and no real disaster experience, keep watching this. If you're a realist, go hunting for MILSURP gear and use the savings for survival, medical, firearms, and hand-to-hand combat training. Good luck to all.
He's a hiker. This is mostly hiking gear, just in a themed video.
You nailed it, the only thing reliable yet useful in the bag was the mora and guerrilla tape, it its still a cheap mora. He didn't even have real para cord... video has the right idea but missed the mark on few things, but no video is perfect.
Nick X that is very true but you need put a 90 degree edge on the spine on a mora companion
You make some good points. But, if you have the money, why not? The point of buying the more expensive equipment is to provide more comfort, ease of use, less bulk & less weight. Sure any equipment is better than no equipment, spend to what you can willingly afford.
if you are a female make sure to bring pads or tampons because stress brings on your period
I’ll slurp up all that period blood for you ladies no need for no tampons

It's what they were for to begin with. Military nurses found them handy and after the war the factories had to find a new customer base and noticed army surplus stores shelves went empty fast.
The holocaust survivors said that their periods stopped.

Well, apocalypse is expensive.
First of all you should always bug in before bugging out, outdoor life has a great survival book that if nothing else was a good read, put together very well.
The emergency hand crank radio, they have those with battery backup charger capabilities and some even integrate the solar with the hand crank.
the smartest thing he said was test your equipment and know how to use it.
I was thinking that kinda thing, too - he said two lights, but packed four (headlamp, LED, taser light, radio light). Combo it up, man. That bag must weigh a ton.

Soldier tip: Remeber to water-tight-pack your fabrics/paper or anything that is harmed/attracts water, or else your backpack will go from a mere 40 lbs up to 50-60 lbs when it gets soaked. A plastic garbage bag will do. Remember, those 10 cents will save you 10 lbs. Might not seem as much, but when youre miserable and cold and have miles to walk, it does! Trust me.

Good tip, and even though I don't hail from your country, your service to it still buys you my respect.
jesus, even in an APOCALYPSE ppl find firearms controversial... or “unnecessary”. U do u bro.

@@MariaMartinez-researcher Self defense doesn't exactly mean killing more people.
@@MariaMartinez-researcher Sounds like you've never been in a disaster before. When I was, there was no way for police to get to us. People were being looted left and right. The neighbor who had a taser would have ended up in a really bad way if it wasn't for everyone around him owning a gun. Don't even have to shoot, it's just the best way to make sure someone doesn't even try you. They'll just move on to the next street.

Lol same
This guys never spent a day in the woods
it does not matter if guns are your thing or not, in a SHTF situation **pro tip** don't decline a firearm
Guns are my thing in good times. Just imagine how valuable they will be in bad times. Anyone that doesn't love guns has got a screw loose.
Well for most non-american viewers guns probably arent an option anyway. But also much less necessary, since the other people around them also won't have them. So for most europeans or so a pepper spray and knife would go pretty far.
As a swiss man i of course have a gun in mine tho ;)
@@Soff1859 that is a terrible idea for longer down the road though, there are plenty of countries that allow most firearms you just never see them. also keep in mind your military and some sportsmen even in the UK still have access to firearms. the UK actually has a NRA just a little different than ours with mostly shotguns. P.S. keep in mind a shotgun does 10x more damage than a standard rifle such as the AR15 considering the .223/5.56 is essentially a .22LR.
@@XxAnimeReaperxX if .223 is sooo inferior, then how come all armies in the world agree to use a caliber similar to that (intermediate cartridge) and not oh so powerful double barrel shotguns? Doesnt exactly speak to your gun expertise ;)
And as i said my bug out bag does contain a gun (in europe). I just dont think it is an absolute necessity for non-american first world residents. Also simply not possible for many. If you live in a rural area in a red state of the US, you absolutely do need a gun in your bag tho. Otherwise you might as well not prep at all
@@Soff1859 223/5.56 was changed over after a study was done (after the Korean war) with the idea being to take people out of the fight as a non-walking casualty. IE: it takes 2 people to move that person, so a total of three people are now tied up and not shooting back vs. 1 person is dead and they keep pushing forward. (This is why American SF groups teach to "win the fight first")...7.62x51 (308 win) is still widely used as a NATO cartridge, however, the average soldier load out is up to 300 rounds of 556 vs 180 rounds of 762...so philosophy and round count are the reasons NATO uses 556.
It's sad to think that self defense is a 'controversial' topic
Chipotle
Well, its controversial by definition since its morally gray to kill someone to improve your chances of survival, and since this kit is pretty much for any scenario including natural disasters, military invasion, economic crisis. You guys are just reading way too much into it.
brainwashing was a sucess
self-defence stops being controversial when you gon die.
It's not controversial to me. Every person has the right to defend themselves and any government that disagrees needs to be replaced.

@@JohnSmith-td7hd yup, and also the fact that he basically said that he didn't need guns. I was instantly skeptical about him
Who else getting ready for the corona virus lol
the most important item to bring with you is knowledge. The more knowledge you have the less you actually need to bring.
Wayward Crow knowledge and the ability to adapt/overcome adversities. You can have all of the knowhow and smarts, but can you adapt and be flexible to a situation? All of that goes out the window if you’re having trouble adapting to your new environment.
i've been adapting all my life. The way i see it is when things change you are left with no choice but to adapt but again knowledge makes it easier to be able to adapt.
Thanks Tai Lopez!
But u should have street smarts then book smarts incase u have to fight someone
Play store survival guide offline is a good source of information.
"and last but not least, birth control"... pulls out 15 condoms... Me: How much fun are you going to have during the apocalypse?!
Awesome Alpha no it's so he doesn't get his hand pregnant
condoms are pretty useful.. to tie something off, fill with water, patch something watertight, put over barrel of your rifle if you're going in water, keep small items like matches dry in wet weather
Necaradan666 Why would you put it over the barrel of your rifle?
Lol that got me!😂😂

Bear spray, seeds, and a guide on herbs.
A guide on wild edibles and mushrooms aswell
@@mysticalmane3931 that is how you die.... if you don't know mushrooms dont eat them
Les Stroud, trained by none other than Arama, said that after almost thirty years learning bushcraft and survival he STILL wouldnt eat wide mushrooms unless he had someone he trusted with him telling him it was okay. And you are looking in a book. Please dont
@@ryanbell6672 Well you do have a point. Actually I agree. Btw even if you're 100% sure you found an edibles l mushroom it could still be poisonous because of other mushrooms around that are.
I wrote that comment because of the wild edible plants which many aren't to hard to identify if you know the doppelgangers and I decided to add mushrooms because I have eaten only some types of wild mushrooms because they're very easy to identify and we brew them anyways. You are right tho, people should be really careful with mushrooms

@@generalviewer8347 What are liquid seeds?
Seeds are really important for long term survival
This guy is not someone who spends a lot of time in the woods...
Brent, how much does a kit like yours cost in the end?
That's a good question, and honestly, I didn't tally it up because this is stuff I've slowly acquired over the last 5+ years. My guess would be between $2,000 - $3,000. Not cheap. But if you use it for backpacking and camping over many years then you're getting your money's worth.
Thanks!
If I got out camping more, and had that amount of disposable income I could see myself spending that kind of money. As it is I have a mini-bug out bag for when I go to reserve duty so I'm part of the way there - minus the tent, sleeping bag, cookware and other things I get from the army when I am called up.
I just did the math and from REI & Amazon, this would be a total of ~$2800 new (not counting the $500 cash). This is extremely nice gear though and you can probably skimp on some things and get some gear used in order to spend less.
Gavers23 What do you mean by "in the end"? Does he put it in the end?
Michael Natrin A
Bro I’m dead when he put the condoms lol 😂
For when you want to store water or if you're having a lucky night
With the way the world's going we'll probably all need this in a few years
If you like your knife, I would recommend using the spine instead of the blade on that magnesium.

One obvious thing for me is a communications device such as a HAM radio. You want to be able to speak with others too, if the phone won't work. One cheap HAM radio with good quality is Pofung UV-5R. It's only about 25-30 bucks and works great!
Wire cutters can be useful when you wanna get into an fenced area, binoculars with night vision, a long sword or something sharp to cut through jungle and a better defense
My bug out bag includes a 9mm. That way I can always have Brent's bug out bag as well.
A lot of people who have bags like this have them becuase of actual experience or needing them. Military , first responders and remote surveyors etc.
DItch the tent and get a bivy. Basha/hootchie is better for warmer climates too.
Cut up a Z lite for space and use a 45 litre bag if you are actually on foot and not backpacking with trail poles + hitchiking. You can also go ultra hobo and fill a garbage bag with newspaper and grass bepending on whats available to make a matress.
Make your own food. Cheaper and you can make longer lasting stuff. Plus when you use it it doesen't cost a crapton to replace.
Make a soda can stove.Lighter, cheaper and less moving parts to fail in the long long term.
Fire? Lense. Bic lighter. Ferro rod. Actual Flint and steel. Fire piston. Bowdrill. Potassium promagnate ignition reaction etc. Diversify.
Crush a sparkplug and add th epercelain to the tip of something rigid. Better glass breaker than anything not a tactical pen. Also works if thrown too.
Knives are personal. Mora is good. Get nothing with serrated edges. More to clean and harder to re edge.
Use lead pellets for slingshot. It gives amuch better ration of weight to mass in the hit. Practice though.
Fishing rod can go. Learn to hand reel and fly. Gill nets are better for the long wait. Hatchet is too small for long work.
Get a folding saw. Can be used one handed even when down on energy. (like haven't eaten for 5 days straight energy low.)
Print all info. Print all maps. You may not want to avoid cotton in tropical areas. Sometimes staying wet IS the point.
Pack a skivvy roll of standard under clothes. Socks/jocks and the shirt. Those need changing more than the outer layers.
Salt, analgesics, a compact mirror, packet of nails. Travel docs/passport, bank docs, gold/silver jewelry/coins.
kitchen sink too. Don't worry about weight, we'll just get the pack mule perk.
@yo wtf put the mask back on a plant unattended wont just explode like a movie POWER CORE OVER HEATING BOOOM CRITCAL FAILURE and then it magically blows up it just sits there and breaks or it auto shuts down wich im guesisng its even more advanced than that where it operates itself at that point
"Just Because everyone you know is dead doesn't mean you have to put up with burnt pancakes"
Omg lol 🤣
The CZcams algorithm has a funny sense of humour 🤨
As an old guy or gal, you cannot carry a heavy backpack with enough water. I suggest a two wheel golf cart. It could transport 80 pounds easily.
Radio flier wagon is loaded on the trailer with other supplies. Can pull a lot more than I can carry. When I get to where I need then gathering wood and supplies is easier with wheels.
Thanks
Been laughing for 3 minutes straight thinking of a really old person going super slow on a golf cart while even slower zombies chasing them! 😂😂
James Holder I plan to take my 20 year old husband with me he’s strong he can carry some stuff I’ll carry the rest and the baby 😂
older people can double as jerky
they dont survive long anyways
$330 just for the bag, Gregory Baltoro 75.... yeah right. I stopped watching at that point.
Holy f**k I did not look that one up.
And it won't even fit all the crap he is recommended. Which is handy because humans aren't pack mules.
@@ElectricityTaster The average marine cares about 100 lbs to 150 lbs of gear in worse situations. You shouldn't have a problem carrying 80 lbs... Come on now
@@wopboi5686 yeah and it fucks them up in a long run with knee and back problems. Recommend by expert is 10 percent of your body weight.
KI4TZA maybe his sponsors??? Don’t endorse this channel then?
Very well, also snare wire and bug spray, Miskito net, could be used for a fishing net also, would be nice. And an emergency hand book with water filtration info and wild edible plants. I found a small one in the camping supply area. Ohh yeah reading glasses or a magnifier, to read the small print in that small book, hahaha 👍🏽😊 Thank you for sharing.
Susan Carter I believe he did say bug spray. But no toothpaste for his toothbrush. He’s got condoms though!😂
Laura Hafner , haha, it figures.
It would be nice if you had a printable list of these items that could be downloaded and printed.
Dude get a stainless steel bottle and a real ferro rod and a real axe.
Bad idea
He's trying to keep it cheap
Totaly right
Stainless steel bottles are a lot heavier than a Nalgene.
well. pay attention to the video and you'd see he included a cook set for that.
As an avid backpacker. Osprey > Gregory
An an avid outdoorsman 22lr (animals) and 9mm (bad people) pistols > slingshot. Slingshots are only accurate if you know how to use them properly and practice a lot.
@The Pervy Prepper man, if only you could order a solvent trap adaptor and an oil filter and supress a .22 for murderfucking people.
Same with guns
Good thing to have on hand is a copy of important documents like birth certificate, bank accounts, land titles, identification cards, etc( also good to have a soft copy of it on usb/phone) Not only for apocalyptic scenarios but for calamities like flood & fires
He forgot the ham radio, rechargable batteries, hand cranked emergency radio and plenty of instant coffee
all i need is a bottle of vodka
Donari cheeki breeki
Don't forget a small bottle of your babushka's kompot and some black bread
Vodka and kvass, ultimate slav survival tools
And the mayonnaise, wtf??
My kit:
A bottle of Vodka
A loaf of black bread
A jar of Kvass
A couple of Blin
And of course, the all important Mayonez
(and a little bit of kompot from Babushka)
Missing a series of gloves i'd say. Always wear protection when hiking and traversing "Dangerous" Terrain as you hands are the first line of defense. Not to mention cold hands you're not gonna get far with.
Believe it or not, your feet are much more important. You can't ambulate on your hands. Or most people can't anyway. Good shoes much more important than gloves. Gloves are REALLY GOOD though.
@@roseemalin didn't think any person could have low enough IQ for me having to mention Wear appropriate footwear.. But yes having something keeping your ankle intact, and protecting your feet is extremely important.
problem with a BOB like that is that it will be taken off you almost immediately by the first gang that that sees you use your lights at night...
Stopped at Walmart and CVS and academy sports got me everything I needed
I like how the buckets behind him are WATER - WATER - WATER - WATER - WATER - VODKA.
Now that's important survival gear, people!
R. Horza well it's a disinfectant and a sedative. If you have a wound you can pour vodka on it, drink some to steady your nerves, and sew it up
^basically what they are saying is that entertainment is important in the apocalypse too
Jesus christ I cringed so hard when he said he prefers a slingshot over a gun in a SHTF senario.
I can replace this entire kit with one item Glock
Great Video Man', but you are missing a few things':
M203 Granade Launcher.
Mini Gun.
Chuck Norris.
Magic 8 Ball.
Bag of Ruffles.
Baby Gerber.
FireCrackers.
And Peanut Butter with Jelly.
And a map to 7-eleven.
A pen, a marker and paper.
so you can troll people by putting on a piece of paper, "*LOOK BEHIND YOU!*"
Instead of money, I'd recommend some small gold coins/ bars which may still have some value if paper loses it.
Honestly i doubt gold would have much value in an apocalypse either... All of it's uses become to bothersome/wasteful to access, when you're in 24/7 survival mode.
Food/water/weapons/clothing, i would say has more value in those circumstances. I might be wrong, but that's my guess. I know i wouldn't trade some good clothing for a few gold bars at least.
JRad if fallout has taught me anything its that bottle caps will still be around 😎
Loved the ending lol. I understand guns aren't some peoples "thing" but In the event of a real SHTF situation, you have a lot of really expensive stuff that other people would want and when a gang of thugs with bats or 2x4's decide they want your Gregory backpack full of really nice stuff, that stun gun won't help you.
Love the video, especially the end. You forgot to mention pack some candy bars

Patar nice job tbh
About that Gerber Hatchet, it's good for chopping down wood, but not for splitting wood. For that you really need something with a wider wedge and a slightly longer handle. You could actually pretty much forego a survival knife with a good short-axe (some have good points that you could use for various crafting needs), or pretty much forego an axe and knife with the right kind of machete. They are less specialized tools, but weight is a huge deal.
Thanks for the feedback! Good to consider.
Nathan Ware the hatchet is one of the few things I have that's mentioned here. But now I've been wondering about battoning wood and whatnot. Is there a compact axe I could fit into a 2200cu pack, or is there a knife you would recommend?
Nathan Ware just use the knife and the hammer head of the axe then place the knife on top of the wood and start hammering it down its a pretty good way and i use it personally
0:40 each every kind of situation he mentioned is coming true now...😲😲
I am so proud of my man right now, because he has got a lot of those things in our house, as he is an avid, yet amateur survivalist. I feel so much safer now
HAHAHAHA... sorry, this is kind of hilarious though. That backpack must weigh a SERIOUS amount, you won't be putting down any mileage unless you're on straight road. I attempted a long distance hike 2 years ago, my backpack had one third or maybe half the stuff in it and it was 39 pounds and it had none of the gimmicks like a multitool, radio or even a tent. I bullshit you not, I was in the best physical shape I ever was but apparently I was still way underprepared ...fucking forget about it. I gave up.
It might be just me, but this looks way too unrealistic.
John Doe, I know that looks heavy. And it probably is, but that doesn't make it unpractical. I spent 12 days hiking the Rocky Mountains (Philmont Scout Reservation, New Mexico) with a pack that weighed 51lbs. It was tough, but 67 miles later I could say that a lot of that stuff came handy. But, what you would pack should still be up to you.
John Doe You'll find out what works for you after you use it. Tuning your pack to your needs is a personal thing but having a place to start is the videos purpose.
John Doe, I have to agree with Chris Trimble. I did the same camp except my pack was 65LBS (I'm rather large so things I have weigh more) and the course i took was one that was over 100 miles in two weeks. Aside from some cold weather gear that I brought, i used everything in my pack at least once. What Brent Rose had in his pack was pretty much the same as I had, except for that cool hand saw, and you find that with a good fitting pack that supports the weight well, getting good mileage in a day is not actually that hard.
Jacob Etheredge yeah it's fine, I wasn't for anyone to agree with me lol, was just a comment and I did put a disclaimer at the end. One thing I forgot, which you mentioned is a 'fitting backpack' ...boy did I learn a lesson there. I think that sole item can make or break the entire thing.
+John Doe
As you say, a good backpack is make or break for things like this. I don't understand how you got half this equipment weighing as much as 39 pounds though. I do a one week mountain hike every summer where we, obviously, bring everything we need on our backs. My pack normally weighs a little less than 35 pounds.
Now that I think about it though, we usually organise what we bring beforehand, so we don't have many redundancies (mostly). Then we distribute the items we share so we carry about the same amount of weight. I guess that would bring the total mass down a fair bit. So, addition to the list; find someone to survive with, sometimes the sum is greater than its parts.
you're missing copies of important documents/ flash drive with copies
Cyber Stein not completely true
@Cyber Stein it's just in general
Boys let’s watch this for when we get deployed
First thing I’d do in an apocalyptic situation is get to the barn where my horse is at. Grab him and whatever other horses I can get. They are perfect transportation, fast, agile and only require grass and fresh water which is abundant where I live. They are able to carry huge loads of supplies and worse case scenario, if you’re starving they can double as emergency food even though I’d hate to think about that. Don’t forget to bring fishing gear too!
First thing I'd do is find you and steal your horse(s) and your fishing gear. Ta ta
