Love the poncho liner bedspread - mine is 40 years old and still used nightly. Just ordered a new one as my wife and the chihuahua both fight me for it
I have one of those cheap, knockoff batons. Strike a hard object just once and watch how fast it bends and will never collapse again. If you can find a Bonowi Camlock baton, they are incredibly strong and well made. The German police forces use them and they can be opened and closed discreetly with one hand and do not require slamming the tip against the concrete to collapse it. They're amazing batons.
Great kit I live in Florida and use the snugpak stratosphere and ionissphere there great very packable and light snugpak make great stuff thanks for taking the time to make this vid gave me some great ideas
My thought. GET HOME BAG What You Should Have In A Get Home Bag (A get home bag is not a bug out bag. It is a bag for emergency self rescue. As you can see I left out a fire kit. Are you trying to get home or go camping?) 1.) Helmet. Protecting your head is easential when you are fighting the elements when exposed to disasters. Falling and flying debris from civil unrest, storms, terrorist blast effects. 2.) Heavy duty painters mask. It will protect your lungs from debris and particles in the air as you make your way out of an effected area. 3.) Safety goggles. If you can't see because something went into your eyes makes it almost impossible for you to help yourself. 4.) Heavy duty workman's gloves. Removing rubble and glass maybe the only way you can get yourself or others free. 5 ) Crow bar. You may have to pry or break your way out. 6.) Hatchet or a cable/chain cutter. Multi tool, knife. 7.) Trauma kit with turnicate or blood stop. To buy you time to get to a hospital. Get home bag is get to help bag as well. Pepto bismol pills. Energy bars. Gatorade powder. 8.) Hand crank FM radio/flashlight/cell phone charger combo. 9.) Headlamp for handsfree lighting. 10.) Safety reflect jacket. Hate to be hit by a car walking on the side of the road. 11.) Wool blanket to wrap yourself or other from going into shock. 12.) Mace and compact handgun. 13.) Rain coat or jacket. 14.) Large water canteen.
I hear ‘get home bag’ or bugout bag a lot. Aren’t we all really after an all purposes emergency bag? How can people guarantee that the potential emergency isn’t something you have to get away from your home? I live in a high risk bushfire area with the constant very real possibility of my entire area going up in flames. Other family members have lived through big earthquakes where other people had lost everything and had to evacuate in a matter of minutes. I prefer the concept of an all purpose emergency bag. As always there are some great ideas as with your video and it helps for all of us to share ideas..
The Rush 72 for a "get home" bag? Don't get me wrong....totally cool to be prepared etc but the 72 is monster big enough for 3-5 days! That kind of volume seems better suited to a "bug out" bag or purpose built muli-day camping backpack like my Osprey 65 liter pack when I want stove, food, fuel, tent, water, sleeping bag, thermarest, extra layers, etc etc. (I'd hate to carry your BOB!!) :-) I find the Rush 12 is way bigger than I need for a very well appointed "get home" kit but then again I only have a 30 mile commute. In terms of what I might realistically encounter (breakdown, snow closures, power outages etc) that means a GHB is pretty minimal with things like phone, AAA card, multi-tool, cash, water bottle, flashlight, and very minimal emergency gear like chem lights, road flare, thermal blanket, IFAK, and good book to ease the wait.
I'm curious if you have ever used any of those Mylar "shelter" items. The SOL bivy, the tent, the poncho, etc. Having tested my similar bag over several days in the mountains, if it is cold, these are unbelievably uncomfortable, loud, and not warm enough. Most of your gear looks brand new. Have you tested any of it in the field?
First time viewer and just subscribed. I like you ghb. It's sweet and to the point. Nice intro for me to the monkey solar panel and the packaged sandwiches. Nice kit. Not too much not too little. You nailed it. Nice job. .
It takes about 8 hours to walk 20 miles, if you don't have a big heavy pack on your back, so just walk home. If you check the weather warnings regularly you can get home before the "weather event" happens. If you are forced to stay somewhere overnight and the shops are going to be closed then you are going to need a bottle of wine or spirit of choice surely. And a pack of cards.
Cool bag and lots of cool stuff, however it may be too much, IMHO. I had to rethink my get-home-bag recently after wearing mine for a few hours and realizing it wouldn't work. I had a single strap black bag and it was uncomfortable to wear for any length of time and looked too tactical. I'm taking the "gray-man" approach and changed it to a small unassuming REI hiking backpack. I have to assume if I'm walking home, so are tons of other unprepared people who would love to take all our good stuff in a panic! I ended up taking out everything except the essentials for me to get home and it became lighter, more maneuverable (in case running is involved), and much more comfortable to wear for hours at a time. I hope I never have to use it!
i think you have bag well thought out except for a couple things. in a get home type emergency you might want to separate some of those things into what you can carry on your person without the bag, should the bag become a hindrance or get stolen. the baton, pry bar knife, multi-tool, firearm if you carry. when you make your assessment of how bad things just got, you can as always inventory your items. the stuff in one particular section should be stuff you attach to yourself. if your friend want coffee or you want to be able to access stuff just cause you want something, have that in another pouch. also if you want to access that stuff in front of some people you can do it without them seeing everything in there. in another part of the bag put the perishables. the sandwiches, cliff bars, five hour. i have learned from personnel experience that you can buy a five hour today, and in the heat the bottle will be swollen tomorrow. things like that need to be rotated frequently. and lastly, my bag changes with the time of year. i live in the right coast so in the summer i'm not going to see ice. that may be different for higher altitudes though. i don't screw with gps's. you forget to change the batteries or charge it. compasses are useless unless you know the area without a map. i'm pretty sure that the gps cant give you as good a clue to where your at as a map. simple fix, go somewhere new stop by a gas station and mark where that gas station is in the parking lot. keep it in your trunk. the radio, i don't see as necessary. if your with someone you don't split up. i am using the much more expensive motorola on a nightly basis right now and that only has a 3/4 mile range in a straight line. upgrade to something that needs an amateur license so you can hear emergency bands. just my 2 cents take it or leave it.
Exactly the kind of guy I would be looking for if S**t hit the fan and I was cruising with 15 lbs on my back and looking to restock my supplies. "Get home bag"? You're a target dude. Those hand warmers aren't going to be enough...
thumbed up - we think a lot alike. i'm about to buy the rush 72 to use instead of a condor II (smaller). we have the same stuff inside just about. it's being prepared. i keep my bag is a trash bag hidden on the back seat of the truck similar to how you do. i pack a little heavier on dehydrated food and i keep canned food in the truck when not freezing o/s. keep 1/2 gall water in 1 gall freeze proof jug in truck too. good video - thx.
i use it mate cant see anything wrong with it despite some of the comments...and its not over organised but i know what i want is in there somewhere thats good enough for me
This is one of the BEST GHB vids I have ever seen. EXCELLENT JOB! I would add my VX-8 for communications/monitoring of public Service communications. AND a handgun-KALIFORNIA BE DAMNED!
You should include some gun. This baton does not give you any range that you should keep in case of thread. Also heading back home you can be attacked by an animal, it's hard to defend with knife and metal telescopic toy.
I just wonder how heavy is the bag. And also why the US people need to toothbrush, etc.. My main concern will be GET HOME and not looking into the mirror, and not taking care of my teeth. :-)
Actually... for the room It takes.. having a tooth brush can be a good moral booster. A healthy mouth is no small thing. Besides.. not all scenarios are "worst case"... if your car breaks down you might find your way to a motel eventually.
I don't no why everyone is so concerned with the weight.If it truly is a disaster of sorts with no guarantee if you'll be getting home better to have than have not.he might not have to carry far.but might end up stuck on the camp for weeks.wouldnt it be nice to have?Also if he has to hike a long way he could also just dump some shit.
The only draw back to this pack is the hip belt. It isn't all that. I found a solution!!! For $20 on Amazon you can get the CONDOR GEN2 BATTLE BELT. It attaches right to the existing hip belt perfectly through the Velcro flaps on the battle belt. I use mine regularly for miles at a time. Ranging from 35-50lbs of gear. And I am 6'2 265
I like to leave my bag in my car too. Is there anything that the extreme cole or extreme heat will affect over time. Matches, fuel... It may seem like a silly question but i am curious to how long Lighters, MREs will last in my car with weather changes. THANKS
I'm not sure but what I do it's just pack this bag with stuff that absolutely won't be affected such as a hammock a knife things like that. anything that is questionably affected by heat or cold such as food lighters batteries electronics and so on I keep in a separate bag in the house
I've been trying to find a pack I really like with the organization I need for my gear. I really want a hip belt 45L capacity with side pouches for a GI-style water bottle. The best I've found for the organization has sadly been the Outdoors Quest pack sold at Walmart, but its capacity is around 30L. It's almost perfect, but I want more capacity, a hip belt, a hatchet loop, and some bottom straps for a blanket roll. Still searching, but I've not found a perfect pack.
Where do you live .. kalifornia ?? .. all that stuff is fine .. ((well some of it pegs the meter as entirely too tacticool)) .. but where is your protection .. and no .. not a arms length baton .. where is the pistol/revolver ??
Lol, I don't need a gun. Some people just think when the world goes to shit, everyone is going to be respectful and polite, asking to borrow a cup a sugar. No, their just gonna try to cut your arms off with a machete or shoot you point blank in the face with a shotgun, just so they can get the backwash left in your Dasani bottle. Jesus, if something does happen, Americans are finally gonna see what happens every day in third world countries and it's gonna be a rude awakening to realize how ruthless another human being can be.
I would like to buy the backpack but I am 1.82 meters tall now the question is whether the waiststrap will sit at the right height And could you put a tent or a hammock in the bag? Nice video!
You over packed for a get home bag at the most this is a bug out bag because of the stuff you have in it and I like the camo bag but go more simple like an old school bag or a normal backpack. Simple stuff guys and in my survival/bug out bag I have half of this stuff and it's all light weight and the only thing sticking out is my Swedish army cooking pot and fire pot. Just keep it simple guys and you don't need all this food. Hunt for it. Good luck :)
Doug Wilson I mean it's not really about how fast you can get home it's about how safe you can make it home you could be 50-60 miles away from your house and it can take you a couple days to get there but you have to travel countless hours you just need a little bit of rest and and sthf situation but some of the stuff he has like the fake knock-off asp is not going to do much against someone that has a gun
For what I´ve seen in CZcams, a lot of people will bug out / get home with military style bags. Seems like average joe is now tactical Joe when it comes to emergencies or disasters.
"should stay away from camo" yet he could hide it easier.. and it doesn't matter what color backpack you have. you are going to attract attention with any tactical backpack you have.
They've made an update to this pack, and I'm not quite sure I like it. There is a fold out slotted something or other type mesh pouch that tips out for more storage, which then can be cinched down. It's open though. This tactical bag supposedly was to have a place to carry a "helmet". Nice try.
guys i just got a 4 pack of itw nexus buckle n triglide sets and 10 yds of tan lite nylon webbing on ebay from american sellers for under 20$ for all.... just had to share that lol (5-4-17)
The backpack is the only thing cool about this video, everything is so overkill and heavy. I have the same bag and with my survival gear it only weighs in at 29 lb (that's with 2 extra large smart bottles of water and a 2 liter bladder full of water) , making it easy to treck along for many miles. his bag there have over kill items and even double, triple items that do the same thing and his pack must weigh in at 50-60 lbs.. you going ain't traveling far with that.
I really do enjoy your videos so don't take what I'm about to say too hard, but do you ever use any of the stuff you have? You kind of remind me of a guy I know that is just a gear hound. He owns one of everything and has no practical knowledge of any of it. None of your stuff looks used at all. I would love to see some vids showing your skills, all of the gear in the world means nothing if you don't know how to use it. Like I said, really like your vids.
Buggingin Bison - The DW and I can't help wondering: are you thinking about further trying to reduce the weight for this GHB? At 42 lbs, it's just 2 lbs lighter than your original B.O.B. setup that was enclosed in a similar Rush 72 backpack; and if we understand the situation correctly, that original finished B.O.B. weight of 44 lbs. appears to have been the deal-breaker for this same style of pack, no? Not trying to bust your balls, sir, but having built our B.O.B.s by following your "original B.O.B. recipe" as closely as possible, also using 5.11 Rush 72 bags, and also ending up with our two 44-lb finished products, we find the 5.11 Rush 72 Bug-Out-Bags to be quite unwieldy and almost brutally uncomfortable for us. Philosophically, it seems to us that considerable weight could be - and maybe should be - dropped from a GHB whose nominal intended "mission support endurance" is 24 hrs., a mere one-third it's original nominal intended "mission support endurance" of 72 hrs. As we now continue revising our own GHBs, we would appreciate and benefit from knowing your thought process, if - and as - you shed additional weight from this current GHB setup. In the meantime, thanks for all you do, and for doing it so well and so selflessly. Please keep up the excellent work.
I venture to say that in a real SHTF situation, 80-90% of all peppers would be annihilated. It would be the guys walking around with 3 year old kids that would have the best chance of survival.
Yes, I believe so. I think that group would not be considered any sort of threat at all, so they would more likely be allowed to carry on. It would be like running into a squirrel or a sparrow or something. No reason to remove it from the environment necessarily. Now, on the other hand, some guy carrying a pack full of valuable survival gear.. Yes, that guy would be the target. Just my opinion.
He forgot his Camo face paint. He's definitely not getting back home without it.
Love the poncho liner bedspread - mine is 40 years old and still used nightly. Just ordered a new one as my wife and the chihuahua both fight me for it
I always have to respect the guys who step up and make the videos.
Good video and a solid overview of the 5.11 Rush 72 pack. Stay safe out there. Scott
I have watched this video like 15 times it has helped me a lot thankyou
I just started watching and already shaking my head
I have one of those cheap, knockoff batons. Strike a hard object just once and watch how fast it bends and will never collapse again. If you can find a Bonowi Camlock baton, they are incredibly strong and well made. The German police forces use them and they can be opened and closed discreetly with one hand and do not require slamming the tip against the concrete to collapse it. They're amazing batons.
My friend I hope that you never get stuck in a bad situation!
i cant stop watching your videos...very good
Great kit I live in Florida and use the snugpak stratosphere and ionissphere there great very packable and light snugpak make great stuff thanks for taking the time to make this vid gave me some great ideas
I enjoyed your review and the items within the bag.
You could fit a few more packets of hand warmers in there...
My thought.

I use the same bag. You don't have to fill it. Just sayin' ...
Love these old videos

Great Bag! you do invest a great deal of time on your kits so Thank you for sharing.
I have a similar thought about pack covers. People always talk about grey man. Why not have a camo pack and a cheap pack cover in black or blue.
I like your urban camo bag for you 5.11 backpack!!
i think you have bag well thought out except for a couple things. in a get home type emergency you might want to separate some of those things into what you can carry on your person without the bag, should the bag become a hindrance or get stolen. the baton, pry bar knife, multi-tool, firearm if you carry. when you make your assessment of how bad things just got, you can as always inventory your items. the stuff in one particular section should be stuff you attach to yourself. if your friend want coffee or you want to be able to access stuff just cause you want something, have that in another pouch. also if you want to access that stuff in front of some people you can do it without them seeing everything in there. in another part of the bag put the perishables. the sandwiches, cliff bars, five hour. i have learned from personnel experience that you can buy a five hour today, and in the heat the bottle will be swollen tomorrow. things like that need to be rotated frequently. and lastly, my bag changes with the time of year. i live in the right coast so in the summer i'm not going to see ice. that may be different for higher altitudes though. i don't screw with gps's. you forget to change the batteries or charge it. compasses are useless unless you know the area without a map. i'm pretty sure that the gps cant give you as good a clue to where your at as a map. simple fix, go somewhere new stop by a gas station and mark where that gas station is in the parking lot. keep it in your trunk. the radio, i don't see as necessary. if your with someone you don't split up. i am using the much more expensive motorola on a nightly basis right now and that only has a 3/4 mile range in a straight line. upgrade to something that needs an amateur license so you can hear emergency bands. just my 2 cents take it or leave it.

Nice bag and equipment your really ready for a bad situation that might happens
Nice one buddy. Thanks for sharing mate. ATB
Excellent video Mr
thumbed up - we think a lot alike. i'm about to buy the rush 72 to use instead of a condor II (smaller). we have the same stuff inside just about. it's being prepared. i keep my bag is a trash bag hidden on the back seat of the truck similar to how you do. i pack a little heavier on dehydrated food and i keep canned food in the truck when not freezing o/s. keep 1/2 gall water in 1 gall freeze proof jug in truck too. good video - thx.
Love all your videos, made me get my own 511 72 and 511 Moab 10. Just a quick question where did you get your morale patch?
Thanks bud!! I usually find them either on ebay or amazon.com.
i use it mate cant see anything wrong with it despite some of the comments...and its not over organised but i know what i want is in there somewhere thats good enough for me
Martin Spalding thanks bud. I redid the pack. Different items and switched to black
Thanks for the tips.
Gadgets, Gadgets, Gadgets. Gotta love all those gadgets.
This is one of the BEST GHB vids I have ever seen. EXCELLENT JOB! I would add my VX-8 for communications/monitoring of public Service communications. AND a handgun-KALIFORNIA BE DAMNED!
You should include some gun. This baton does not give you any range that you should keep in case of thread. Also heading back home you can be attacked by an animal, it's hard to defend with knife and metal telescopic toy.
Outstanding kit brother Big thumbs up :D
Good video. Good information.
Sweet! :D also 9:33 was pretty funny.
You should add a emergency stash of cash in the bag as well
I just wonder how heavy is the bag. And also why the US people need to toothbrush, etc.. My main concern will be GET HOME and not looking into the mirror, and not taking care of my teeth. :-)
Actually... for the room It takes.. having a tooth brush can be a good moral booster. A healthy mouth is no small thing. Besides.. not all scenarios are "worst case"... if your car breaks down you might find your way to a motel eventually.
Wow, this gentleman is definitely not a hipster!
awesome video
Where did you get the light on the shoulder strap at the end of the video?
I don't no why everyone is so concerned with the weight.If it truly is a disaster of sorts with no guarantee if you'll be getting home better to have than have not.he might not have to carry far.but might end up stuck on the camp for weeks.wouldnt it be nice to have?Also if he has to hike a long way he could also just dump some shit.
good job.make it your own . its not over manageable like this. The Ultimate Getting Home Bag Not a Bugout or Bug Out Bag 2
The only draw back to this pack is the hip belt. It isn't all that. I found a solution!!! For $20 on Amazon you can get the CONDOR GEN2 BATTLE BELT. It attaches right to the existing hip belt perfectly through the Velcro flaps on the battle belt. I use mine regularly for miles at a time. Ranging from 35-50lbs of gear. And I am 6'2 265
I like to leave my bag in my car too. Is there anything that the extreme cole or extreme heat will affect over time. Matches, fuel... It may seem like a silly question but i am curious to how long Lighters, MREs will last in my car with weather changes. THANKS

What size bag cover would I need to buy for my rush 72 hour if its fully stocked and loaded down some what like yours?
I believe mine is a large 20 liter cover
Nice bag nd water bottle
I've been trying to find a pack I really like with the organization I need for my gear. I really want a hip belt 45L capacity with side pouches for a GI-style water bottle. The best I've found for the organization has sadly been the Outdoors Quest pack sold at Walmart, but its capacity is around 30L. It's almost perfect, but I want more capacity, a hip belt, a hatchet loop, and some bottom straps for a blanket roll. Still searching, but I've not found a perfect pack.
Rush 24 and 72 will do the job you seem to want to do.
Nice kit ;)-
Good luck
😍 👍Excellent gear
did i miss it...or did you put in a Silcok water utility key ?
Where do you live .. kalifornia ?? .. all that stuff is fine .. ((well some of it pegs the meter as entirely too tacticool)) .. but where is your protection .. and no .. not a arms length baton .. where is the pistol/revolver ??
I liek ur stile cid
Don't need a gun. Never have, never will. If you want to carry the extra weight, go for it.
Lol, I don't need a gun. Some people just think when the world goes to shit, everyone is going to be respectful and polite, asking to borrow a cup a sugar. No, their just gonna try to cut your arms off with a machete or shoot you point blank in the face with a shotgun, just so they can get the backwash left in your Dasani bottle. Jesus, if something does happen, Americans are finally gonna see what happens every day in third world countries and it's gonna be a rude awakening to realize how ruthless another human being can be.
great bag great gear
4:54 nice toss
This is different from your but out bag, correct? Or, did you condense your other bug out bag, rush 72 black, and this is it? Just curious :)
Do you keep a list of what you have? So if you use a couple of things while you're at work, you'll know what needs replacing later on?
nice review thank you
I would like to buy the backpack but I am 1.82 meters tall now the question is whether the waiststrap will sit at the right height
And could you put a tent or a hammock in the bag?
Nice video!
keep thing a bit more organized, great video😉
Where can I get that black led light on your shoulder strap.
You over packed for a get home bag at the most this is a bug out bag because of the stuff you have in it and I like the camo bag but go more simple like an old school bag or a normal backpack. Simple stuff guys and in my survival/bug out bag I have half of this stuff and it's all light weight and the only thing sticking out is my Swedish army cooking pot and fire pot. Just keep it simple guys and you don't need all this food. Hunt for it. Good luck :)
What does your pack weigh in at?
Are you still going to do the video of your supply room
Shovel goes on the outside, why a book you should be WALKING! Way to heavy to Really carry. Seriously. How far can you walk with this in 24hrs?
Doug Wilson I mean it's not really about how fast you can get home it's about how safe you can make it home you could be 50-60 miles away from your house and it can take you a couple days to get there but you have to travel countless hours you just need a little bit of rest and and sthf situation but some of the stuff he has like the fake knock-off asp is not going to do much against someone that has a gun
For what I´ve seen in CZcams, a lot of people will bug out / get home with military style bags. Seems like average joe is now tactical Joe when it comes to emergencies or disasters.
wow nice Kit
"should stay away from camo" yet he could hide it easier.. and it doesn't matter what color backpack you have. you are going to attract attention with any tactical backpack you have.
Is that little compact sleeping bag good for just sleeping in it?
Can u tell me what z difference between bug out bag nd get home bag?
I don't know therfore I asked
just one more ? does that poncho liner fit in that bag ? I have one
you just like hearing the krinkling sound from the plastic bags i think
You should add a portable battery for your phone
I have the same back pack
They've made an update to this pack, and I'm not quite sure I like it. There is a fold out slotted something or other type mesh pouch that tips out for more storage, which then can be cinched down. It's open though. This tactical bag supposedly was to have a place to carry a "helmet". Nice try.
Provided you home hasn't been destroyed or looted of weapons by uncle scam. Keep At least 2 other friends or family's homes as backup locations.
Nice one.
guys i just got a 4 pack of itw nexus buckle n triglide sets and 10 yds of tan lite nylon webbing on ebay from american sellers for under 20$ for all.... just had to share that lol (5-4-17)
Hey I've got the same pack where did you get the multicam rain cover for it?
I purchased from a seller on ebay a few weeks ago.
No napkins rings or dress shirt?
The backpack is the only thing cool about this video, everything is so overkill and heavy. I have the same bag and with my survival gear it only weighs in at 29 lb (that's with 2 extra large smart bottles of water and a 2 liter bladder full of water) , making it easy to treck along for many miles. his bag there have over kill items and even double, triple items that do the same thing and his pack must weigh in at 50-60 lbs.. you going ain't traveling far with that.
I've rucked with 70 pounds on my back.. 12 miles to be exact
How big are you, i am 15 and 5'9" just wondering if this pack will fit me
It'll fit I have one.
what do you think about using a military grade duffel bag for bug out?
And how would you carry that long term?
Capacity of bag?
I really do enjoy your videos so don't take what I'm about to say too hard, but do you ever use any of the stuff you have? You kind of remind me of a guy I know that is just a gear hound. He owns one of everything and has no practical knowledge of any of it. None of your stuff looks used at all. I would love to see some vids showing your skills, all of the gear in the world means nothing if you don't know how to use it. Like I said, really like your vids.
Pretty much spot on. This seems more like a long term survival pack than a get home bag.
you are awsom
How much does this complete bag weigh (not counting any water)?
without water 42lbs

Bison - The DW and I can't help wondering: are you thinking about further trying to reduce the weight for this GHB? At 42 lbs, it's just 2 lbs lighter than your original B.O.B. setup that was enclosed in a similar Rush 72 backpack; and if we understand the situation correctly, that original finished B.O.B. weight of 44 lbs. appears to have been the deal-breaker for this same style of pack, no? Not trying to bust your balls, sir, but having built our B.O.B.s by following your "original B.O.B. recipe" as closely as possible, also using 5.11 Rush 72 bags, and also ending up with our two 44-lb finished products, we find the 5.11 Rush 72 Bug-Out-Bags to be quite unwieldy and almost brutally uncomfortable for us. Philosophically, it seems to us that considerable weight could be - and maybe should be - dropped from a GHB whose nominal intended "mission support endurance" is 24 hrs., a mere one-third it's original nominal intended "mission support endurance" of 72 hrs. As we now continue revising our own GHBs, we would appreciate and benefit from knowing your thought process, if - and as - you shed additional weight from this current GHB setup. In the meantime, thanks for all you do, and for doing it so well and so selflessly. Please keep up the excellent work.
have you tried a mylar tent? totally useless.
Bunch of brand new, never used Walmart crap.
fucking crazy dudes!! i bet if we got a zombie apocalipse you will be the most happy man on earth!! long live murica!!
no medicine?
There was a lot of medicine...
I venture to say that in a real SHTF situation, 80-90% of all peppers would be annihilated. It would be the guys walking around with 3 year old kids that would have the best chance of survival.
Think about it.
Yes, I believe so. I think that group would not be considered any sort of threat at all, so they would more likely be allowed to carry on. It would be like running into a squirrel or a sparrow or something. No reason to remove it from the environment necessarily. Now, on the other hand, some guy carrying a pack full of valuable survival gear.. Yes, that guy would be the target. Just my opinion.
Then again..not all "Get Home" situations need to be SHTF situations. They might only be personal energencies or weather related stuff.
nice
MAN-TASTIC
LIKE A 45 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT
