“im building an invisible tree house to hide from the end of world”
Kid walks by for .2 seconds
“I SEE IT”
Lmao
🤭😅
He might of had something if he used actual mirrors instead of HVAC tape.
Yeah real mirrors and actually put branches and leaves with a net or nail them or bungee because on a sunny day that stuff looks and reflects like tin foil
Even has a nice totally invisible wooden platform at the bottom
it’s always funny how all these peepers biggest fears is other people coming after the supplies they’ve stacked… and then allow themselves to be filmed on tv for the whole world to see
Very ironic
Yeah, it gives me an idea of who and where to avoid.
You won't make it past their defenses, booby traps, guns. Haha you'll be desperate to be a marauder. Disorganized and disoriented. If you even did find their compound, you would likely flee at the sight of all the dead bodies littering the area from their failed attempts. And to think there's any group recording these locations, when it hits the fan, nothing goes as planned. These people are more united than the 50 states and they're beckoning you out of confidence.
IKR,,,LOL,,,, oh lets go run and hide in a tree house....roflmao
It's just another way to make money brother 😂
#1 Rule of prepping is don't let others know, and don't let the government know 🤦♂️. It makes you a target from both angles.
Ya know that’s a good point!
and these preppers are on national Geographic where millions of people can see them 😂
Which government?
@@djsipp4743 yeah you act like you will still remember this show a month from now 🤣
@@FliightLiine do t have to remember when you have it saved.
The first guy is the perfect example of someone who was in a non combat MOS, but spends the rest of his life LARPING like he was SF.
Don’t be jealous bro lol 😂
@@themyrtlewoodshomestead9371nah he is 100 percent correct.
That's what I thought, he was in the military for four years, but now it's his entire persona.
Still more prepared than you
@@anncoffman4448and how’s it his entire persona? I really don’t get it. He barely mentioned the military. Dude is just preparing for anarchy
Dude better make sure he remembers where he set his own traps or hes gonna be in for a rude awakening one day!
He'll at least have no doubt about their effectiveness. Especially when a deer trips those signal flares while no one is around burning down both of these guys properties and starting a wildfire. At least no one caught em off guard. Hey protecting your property gets a lot easier the less you have to protect. So there's that
These guys don’t realize how short life is, so I hope this is fulfilling for them and they have no regrets on their deathbeds.
When that dementia kicks in he's gonna have a blast
Or his family...
@@lisaschuster686 as you say, life is short so why are you wasting it on CZcams🤷
that reflective cubby house is hilarious.
“I’m preparing for Martial Law.”
Brutally murders mannequin.
i have ammo! and i was in the military! proceds to waist acctual ammo and not use a bb gun. like the miltary did in the 60s.
@@lonewolfairsoft9142 can just uh...buy more ammo?
@@lonewolfairsoft9142
umm he's not currently in a war where you need every single round you have on you. like some of the soviet's in ww2 did when they were down to their last 3 bullets in their bolt action rifle. it's just for TV
Lol
@@lonewolfairsoft9142 yeah such a waste when he makes his own ammo...
I’d love to see a follow up with these people and see what the “experts” say now.
LMAO Me too also.
Seems like a lot of them are right these days. Some dumb ideas but correct in terms of what's happening
Yeaaaa! We'd like to see these so called experts!
I'm betting most have been red flagged and locked up. Cancelled and lost their jobs, income, their property, supplies and arms.
@@rfross771 seems like they've all been wrong and are the problem with society
34:57
Builds a "camouflage" tree house
Wife and son walks up and immediately spots it
10/10
I can't stop laughing at this. Amazing.
The coolest thing an intruder will see as well🙃
you'll see the tree house down the road when the sun hits it perfectly hahahahah
@@oje140 lmao. Like a SOS signal saying, "come get my stuff" or "help, my wife is scared of heights and can't get down - and I'm stuck in this spider hole"
....and builds a bug out up a tree when his wife is height phobic 🤦♀️🤣🤣
First rule of doomsday peppers, don't go on doomsday peppers.
Second rule: Don't shoot your own thumb off during filming.
@@mainepants what an idiot lol, he permanently disfigured his thumb.
Even though I think these people are a bit too extreme, these shows are so addicting. I've been binge watching for a week already 😂
Can somebody wrtie me a summary for this? Its my himework:(
@@icewolfgaming6745 lol
😂 for real. I watched about 6 episodes in a row 😂🤔🤔
with what is happening around the world right now china tawiwan russia ukrain palestine and the occupation i think they are the most sane people here
@leerush6978 samee
Experts: Nice treehouse, but you’ll be trapped.
Him: Yeah, but spider hole.
😂😂😂
That's why you have a zip line in the treehouse so you can ZIP down across the field from your attackers
I'm sure the particle board is bullet resistant
It's ok and good to be prepared just don't let it take over your mind it can make you go crazy worrying every dam day
You have a good point there, i noticed is within myself. I prepped but when i noticed i started to worry more, i decided to not let my ''short'' life go to waist with constant worry. Just prep a bit and then trust the proces :)
Most preppers don't worry tbh but some do and it's really bad when they do
Prepping within reason is a smart move. Building a bug out tree house is a little much lol.
they should have went Down,, not up. Things like radiation,,, a Volcano (Yellowstone) Ash event,,,, They have no protection from that at all.
Why not just camo the tree house vs. using reflective. Reflection is one of the top target detection characteristics you observe for.
100% right.
And why try so hard to design the 12gauge bobby trap using mousetrap while you can get a readily available 12gauge bobby trap for less than $20 in outdoor store.
A muthafux!a tried that. He didn't win. But he did. 😋🙃🤔
Yep....especially when sunlight hits it.
Punji sticks are a great way to lose your property if someone gets lost in the woods and accidentally falls in the hole. With a good Lawyer, he might also get your Firearms and Food preps. Food for thought.
Correct if you are digging holes and making pungi pits on your own property you are a stupd POS and you deserve to be prosecuted by law
THIS IS AMERICA !
I think with a few signs posted around and everything I think I can convince a judge that he had no legal reason to be on my property and that's brought the injury upon himself
How would the dude get his guns? I'm pretty sure guns can't be used in a leans.
Bold claim. Let’s see some legal precedent where someone gets paid in food and firearms in an injury suit 😂
What the contractor friend Steve was really saying: "When Greg first called me, I didn't realize what a whacked out nut job he was, but Crazy nut job's money spends too, so I'll gladly take his money and then promptly block his phone number."
😂
Let's be honest, none of these Doomsday preppers seem "out there" right now in year 2022.
hahahaha seriously
KING MING --Absolutely RIGHT!
Yea I think this was filmed in 2013?
Absolutely correct. I’m a Pepper look around. Fjb
only people equally as unintelligent as the individuals on this show, would agree with that sentiment.
he should build a concrete underground bunker in his woods with secret hatches etc not a stupid tree house
What is scary is this.....
Once the husband is killed, the treehouse can beset on fire by the intruders/trespassers killing th wife & son. Just awful! Humans are cruel animals! 😡
@@TheDonna1959 chill out b
Lol right! Even a dirt dug out with wood and some dirt on top anything the being stuck in a treehouse that can easily have lead pass through hahaha Agree with your statement
Yes and a tunnel system leading to various spiderholes
Practicable mental hahaha with money
The funny thing is.. they would eventually fall into their own traps at some point..
You can only be too careful for certain period of time before you get distracted and making mistakes
Easy to see a reflective box on a tree you must take in the sun light that can also reflect off of it as well
"He's planning something no intruder could predict"
And here's what I'm planning broadcasted on tv for millions so anyone could predict it
Great.
I have a bugout with a tree house that all the construction workers now know about 😂😂😂
Not to mention the entire NatGeo camera crew
and all these stupid 20 years olds that i just asked to come see it.
Thanks for the help guys but now I have to kill you.
Survival doesn't have to be ugly. It's humans who make it that way.
Ok so are you going to live and adapt to your ideal fantasy or the world as it is?
this is not the walking dead buddy when you run out of food water the first thing you will go to is offense
You've seen mob mentality during protests and riots. That will be nothing compared to SHTF. Nothing happens until it happens
Kudos to these two guys for their commitment to taking care of their families. I do however, think they both appear to be stretched a little thin. A short vacation, away from the compound, and away from prepping might be in order.
I understand having supplies ready if you live in an area where natural disasters are frequent. Like food on hand medication ect. But booby trapping your house to harm people. Is so over the top
@@scottr6755 why? No 1 unauthorized belongs on you property anyway. Why is it ok for government to do this yet its "over the top" for the average joe?
@@scottr6755 Its an american thing. Love to carry guns and harm each other
@@nova68cutie Cause the average joe is not a high profile person often targeted by terrorists
@@scottr6755
When the cities start to empty out, for those who can get out, urban areas will be in their path. Hungry scared people get dangerous real fast. Protect what you have or your stuff and family will suffer.
Be kind to one another. Stay safe. Love to all
That tree house is so visible to any good woodsman haha
Robert looks like someone you really don't want to mess with, let alone fight.
Curious as to where he got the money for all those toys.
Roids
@@Paleotech1 airforce, firefighter, paramedic
@@Paleotech1 I have noticed when you watch these kind of videos, most of these people are very rich. You hear statements like "I left my corporate job".
Or they retired from a high paying job, nothing wrong with being rich though.
@@jojoe2409 you all don't think they'll waste time interviewing average people do you??
Rambo's Last Blood tunnels are pretty doable. What good fathers they are.
That dude in Texas must really hate eye protection. Even when he has it on his head it's not covering his eyes lol..
Food storage and reloading station is so on point. The only problem with this scenario is you have to be a millionaire to buy all this stuff.
you hit that dead on. I did reloading about 9 years ago. Luckly I had stock piled a lot of the supplies. cost to get it was about 10 percent of prices today.
You don’t have to be a millionaire. You think these people started yesterday? You start now. I have accumulated so much in the past 10yrs. Bit by bit adds up. You don’t buy everything at once.
Don't have to be a millionaire but you do have to set a goal and start now. Most of these guys in these shows this is the result of years of building towards where they were currently at.
storing food, a way to purify water, a gun, 500 rds of ammo, etc. wont cost too much lol
Ehh you don't really. You just need to be able to recruit a group of people who have similar fears to you and crowdfund a compound then each of you can specialize in a certain area to ensure your group has all bases covered.
I loved this show, i wish they would make a 2023 version
They should looking at the world now, probably a thousand more preppers at this moment
Business of fear is the best business...
Hmm
Fox News and the GOP love fear that how they got us into war on terror
Fear is actually good for u it will make u more coutions
@@widodoakrom3938 fear is only as deep as the mind allows.
"that treehouse is the coolest thing I've ever seen. Oh...I mean, 'not seen"... Sorry Dad".
mirrored tree house up in the tree plus sunshine, what do you get? basically a light house hahahahaha🤣
The mirror idea is hilarious.
I love that I get to see this stuff and I'm sure these families got paid so they made out in the end, but for the life of me I cannot understand how someone would share not only intimate details of how they prepare for SHTF scenarios, but even the faces and first names of their children on national television, describing in detail food cashes, gun capacity and booby traps. It's astounding to me that people would be like, "Hey, here is my 10-year-old kid's face and here is their name and here is where we live and here is how I plan to protect them against strangers like the ones watching this on their phones in the hundreds of thousands across the country in an emergency"
The person that has the underground shelter for hurricanes has a door that opens outwards what happens if a tree falls on that door and they are not able to push that door upward to get out
Yeah most of us ,that spend time on the forest, would use mirrors to signal for help.
And everyone assumed Rambo was just a legend, who knew there's a whole bunch of them out there prepping haha
THAT TREE HOUSE IS NOTHING BUT A GIANT SIGNAL MIRROR
Some of these folks are genuinely dangerously insane. And that damned tree house is a death trap.
Wait... what plans do the preppers have for the contractors and "friends" that know their secret locations? Surely they would secretly be thinking of them as "potential threats"
do it your self and i don't have freinds. lol
The contractor was never seen again after this episode
The peppers who includes a large group of freidnds and family in their plans are smart. You can't survive on your own in doomsday scenario. You need a decent amount of people. People for farming people for guarding 24/7 people to repair and maintain your compound people to scout for supplies and info. And you need to be able to give people some breaks. So you'll probably need at least 20 people to surive. 8 people on rotating guard duty. 2 people on repair and maitence 2 people for scouting 6 people for farming and hunter gather and 2 to cook and clean for the group. The reason I say 20 is you need to have well rested alert guards at all times. Any less and you start having problems and will have to suffer from lack of manpower to deal with your basic necessity.
Well...the Pharaohs buried theirs in the pyramids so they couldn't give away the burial secrets.
the tree house actualy becomes more visible with the mirrors because they reflect light ordinary camolage would be way better ...
Wow you essentially made a mirrored deer stand!! As far as the other person all I can say is liability insurance and hope your daughter’s friends don’t decide to go play in the woods
40:34 - imagine the intruders already in the tree house 😆
All about protecting your family until one of them walks into a trap😂
Lol yeah
That treehouse isn’t keeping anyone safe .. 4 people would go mad living in such a confined space
Your first "prep" as a husband and father should be life insurance.
Life insurance won't do you any good when shtf lol 😂
The problem with the tree house is how obvious the bottom is. Why not cover it too?
Panic set in when the kid had to get picked up from school haha Robert lets the wife go on her own 😂😂
that made no sense.
@@JustMe-gs9xi how didn't it he dose all this prepping to protect his family and when the kid could of been in danger he let the wife go on her own did you not watch it or are you soft too.
Having an airplane is a huge bonus!!!
The guy with the glass house is going to be in a world of hurt if intruders come through at night with flashlights and his house stand's out ike a disco ball
I agree, imo going up in the tree is a good idea but allowing the contractor and crew to know everything isn't. With only 3 people and in the wood I would have just bury plenty of rations/supplies with a supreme rooftop tent on standby but the supports and ties already in place in multiple location on the property but it's his time and money not mine.
The wife with fear of heights that whole ambush was emotional abuse.
Get over it
i really don't like that guy
@@JustMe-gs9xi G.I joe guy or the keyboard warrior??
@@samchallender9875 I like how this bothers you so much.
The guy building a tree house to bug out to is a good idea until winter when all the leafs fall off the trees
Aughhhjhhhh!!!!! Hide the family under the bed! Hide my gun inside my body 😂good lord.
Bro is telling his family to hide in a box while he plays Rambo
I can't imagine the state of paranoia these people live in.
@@unclecharlie9022agreed but you can tell these folks just dwell on it making it a mental illness.
Seeing the current state of the world they are not paranoid you are living in a deluded reality
He doesn't need to worry about martial law, he needs to worry about nuclear war
So the news says.
Ain't nothing that can be done.. But the news lies anyway. They proved that to us 1000 times over the past years.
What it is to live in constant fear and stress from a threat that is only a very very unlikely possibility. He either has PTSD from army life or has watched too many movies. The trap is a risk to animals. Imagine if he kills a lost person or runaway child with those traps.
about the literal punji trap though. is he gonna have multiple and is he gonna leave them set up cuz like.. what if some dude just hiking or some worker falls in lol
What's funny is that i'm planning to do the same thing with the property i''m buying in Texas. I will have 25 acres of land and thanks to my training in the military as a Combat Engineer i learned how to make booby traps, obstacles and i learned first aid as well. I definitely want to incorporate drones, dogs and various motion sensors on my property.
Wow what a cool father, daughter duo, the whole family seems so tight and loving.
$10 says he steps in his own trap.
i bet you $20 bucks
Why is he sending his daughter to college? What if doomsday happens while she’s away? 🤔🤷🏻♂️
I think it's kind of like Obama and other Climate Change believers who say the earth is going to burn up in two years, but who build beachfront properties which shows they really don't believe their own hype. Maybe it's the same with some extreme preppers who are in love with the idea of prepping, but know subconsciously that their kids and wives will never be in an end of the world sort of danger.
After watching a bunch of episodes I think for some of these preppers it's just an expensive hobby and a way to live out a G.I. Joe fantasy. There are sincere, skilled preppers out there who are quietly doing things right but they aren't bonkers.
Maybe to study something that would be useful?
Imagine if the bullet richocheted back from the glass, wasn't very well planned out and goes to show even in planning you can die before you get to help or protect
I’ve been watching doomsday preppers for years
36:05 at that point you need to push her over your fears or else she’ll become a problem in the nice way😂😩
Hope some kids don't accidentally wander onto his property. 💣 💥
i used to love this shoe now i cant believe i ever watched it... as i continue to watch it LOL
Evertime i watch this i can hear a banjo rendition of the American national anthem playing in my head for hours afterwards
1. Have a well that can be operated without electricity.
2. Have a big garden.
3. Have an adequate sized root cellar.
4. Have a big enough wood lot for your fireplace and wood stove.
5. Have neighbors who will not become desperate.
6. Now you can finally start thinking about what firearms you need.
# number # 1 rule of prepping is we don't talk about prepping,,,Greg just told all the construction crew were his preps and bug out house its located at duh!
This show is so Awesome.
"we gotta be suspective on anyone who comes in our property" amen Bro
Get in the treehouse, Marsha, gawl!!!
This guy made his wife and kid get in the storm shelter because it was raining.
Rotate your food inventory and water so it will last you a long time. I also have freeze dried food with a shelf life of 20yrs.
I've gone backpacking and let me tell you, if you are not in great physical shape, all that prepping is useless.
So get in shape, train, have a plan and stay proficient with all the gear you have.😎
Edit: Greg from Tennessee has been watching too many movies like Predator for that invisible tree house that now the Contractor and his workers know about. Lol.
He should have just got a RV and parked in the woods with camo and bushes.
Imagine an innocent family looking for help falls inside the 'Fall trap.' What a terrible way to die!
4 years in the airforce is gonna get him real far when he goes up against everyone else
I admire preppers and respect them
Thanks for the instuctions y'all.
This show should be called, "why I am the king of all LARPers".
They should just start stock piling prozac instead. Probably would cure their need to prep, lol.
I think some of them have OCD.
FBI, ATF, and DHS: How many lists would you like to be on?
Robert: How many you got?
Some of these people must have big dollars to throw at prepping. The first guy probably had at least 30k worth of ammo supplies and weapons alone, much less everything else.
This was years ago. To Survey property now, all you need is a drone. You can go anywhere and pop one up.
dont even need a drone, just gotta have apple or google maps and enable satellite
@@carsonwilly813 really? So apple and google map is going to give you 24/7 live view? I don’t think so. if you want to Survey your area and see if anyone is around. A drone will do that. Not google or Apple Maps.🤦♂️
@@iiinsaiii i dont think you know what the term "survey property" means
@@HeyYoFabels they are looking around to see if there’s anyone one there property. It’s not hard to understand. They are not walking around to see how big their property is.
inexpensive, camera equipped quadcopters existed way before this show.
Rob needs a better comms plan for his family. A simple GMRS set up in each vehicle along with a base station will most likely suffice. Even better if he and his family got into ham radio and/or set up a repeater.
40:05 lets hide in our invisible tree house that's above all the support beams and hope they only notice the support beams. Also, hope they don't shoot at the treehouse since we can't see out to return fire.
"dude i finaly did something right" at 20:20 broke my heart
I admire them for going to such lenghts to keep their loved ones safe.
I always always always think whenever I watch these shows.
"What ya'll gonna do against the military drones that can remotely drop bombs." lol
Son: Oh I see it!
Dad: Alright, boys, tear it down.
Anybody think about something as simple as CALTROPS? Cheap and will efficient disable vehicles and people on foot. Screams when a 2 inch spike goes through a foot are a great alarm and locator
Paranoid personality disorder (PPD) is a serious mental health condition.
There are preppers since the end of the century! Althoug it is true that one day the dolar will fall, but for that there are still decades of decades to come!!! these pleople will continue with their paranoid mentality until 2050 or more.
Lol
These are gonna be the people that die first because they have all the supplies one family can’t stop 50-100 guys from running in your house probably not even 5 guys
Depends how much ammo he has
And if they are just civilians it wouldn’t even be a challenge with that much land to prep n trap and create choke points distractions and a dozen other things
I think I'll give Roberts house a miss...
Props to the first prepper, he has some military experience with real life skills that are applicable. Most of these prepper (including the ones reading my comment) have no survival training whatsoever, experience, and most likely never had to live off the land, only a very few percentage of people actually do. No amount of freeze dried food, ammo, and water will save you from a post societal collapse, people don't seem to understand how bad it'll get if our society collapses. Many of you are depended on the grid and society so walk with caution and be careful what you really wish for.
Nothing like a big silver Shiney mirror to hide in
That simulated ambush tho😂
Canadian Innovation Association Importation And Exportation Company.

Dude could have used a stick instead of a rifle and said bang bang. Literally no reason to flash your friends and family with the muzzle of a rifle. Not for training. Not for nothing
0:30
“So how much for the mirror finish chrome walls”
“$89,000”
“Ok how much for the really shiny metal walls that are reflective but not as expensive”
