My URBAN Bug Out Bag
Vložit

- Urban bugout bag for the modern scenario, a realistic checklist. The 30L bag weighs just 9 kg (20 pounds), but holds all the items you need to survive for a few days and even more. Just enough to get you home or to a safe location.

Great channel. Very well done, thanks so much.
Well thought out and I like the fact you take the overall weight into account, a lot of what you need and not of what you don't. I see so many people who post videos just fill their packs with the most expensive and heaviest gear. Great load out, thanks for sharing!
I agree. Thank you!
Excellent kit. The only thing I would add is a silcock water key. That would grant you access to the water faucets on the sides of commercial buildings
Thanks! Good idea, will look into it.
@@MrDonkov you could use the Leatherman in your kit for opening those, no need for extra weight with that key...
Agreed. I keep one in every car
I really liked the small Bible idea. Even if I don't actually read it, it will comfort me.
If you need to use this, things will be way past biblical comfort.
Nice kit. I keep hand warmers, emergency ponchos, emergency blanket, bandanas, a winter hat, Mora Knife, small Swiss army Knife, hand sanitizer, disposable face masks, trauma Pak, five hour energy shots, flashlight, light sticks, batteries and a pocket Constitution in my bag.
A pocket Constitution??
@@milodeescorpio3658 Carry rights with me. I've seen another get home bag with one, where I got the idea.
Great video, well put together and edited very well. I like your ideas and contents of your bag. It gave me some good ideas and things to look into. Keep up the excellent work.
Thank you!
Nice kit. A couple of things I might add especially in an urban environment; a Silcock key to access water, and some cash in small denominations. If power is out there will be no banks or credit card useage. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the comment and suggestion. I always have some cash in my wallet. As for silcock key, not sure how this works in my country. Water is generally not a probelem, can be found anywhere.
Cash will be worthless except as toilet paper as there will be nothing to buy in a bugout scenario.

17:25 ... 😍👍I love your Bug out mini roll kit !!
very practical kit and useful items
Very nice video!!! Thank you for taking the time to show us your bag.
👍 Bible in survival backpack 👍
Reading Psalm 23 all the way ... ;)
Hello useful items and CR understands your point of view on many things. I do not carry a whole roll of tape either , but I do carry some (card, rolled or layered methods) that’s an interesting container for pepper take CaRe
Thank you for the comment. I see you got some interesting content as well! Keep it up
I have a whole roll of Gorilla Tape in my bag. I prefer that over duct tape because it's stronger and stickier.
Good basic kit----its a lil backpacky for urban---but depends on where you are at---suggest foldable hexamine stove---lil lower burning but lighter and can use to burn sticks etc too
A Couple things friendly opinion/advice
1. Loved the backpack design very cool.
2. Should think about switch your water bottle to stainless steel that way you have the option of boiling your water in it.
3. if you are not prepacking water into your water bottle, you should consider putting some extra small item essentials into it.
4. I think you should definitely get you a more dependable knife, you said yourself you got to constantly sharpen it. invest in something more reliable, there's tons of cheap decent knifes out there.
5. as far as your cooking stove personally I would drop it and instead get a set of small metal tent stakes and stick them into the ground as your stove and just use wood to heat your food with. would greatly reduce the space and weight of your bag.
6. Loved the tarp very good choice man.
7. you should look into adding the platypus water filter straw as a backup as well. light weight and small and extremely good.
Thank you for the comment and suggestions!
@@MrDonkov NP Buddy I look forward to more vids.
Well though out video! It shows you put a lot of thought into the matter because you covered various aspects way beyond just the survival basics.
On a serious note, I do hope we'll never have to use one of these!
Yes, it is now the experience of past few years.. Thanks for the comment!
Thank you
great video, looking forward to more preparedness videos from you.
Thank you.
Great set up!
I carry lock pick sets and a small mini sledge hammer. Unlock alot of doors and the hammer can knock a hole enough get through cinder block or red brick walls. And bolt cutters.
My favorite flashlight is the Protac 1L-1AA. It can take CR123, AA, or AAA batteries. The multiple battery options make it great for survival. Its very lightweight. 6400 candela.
But a headlamp is obviously useful because it doesn't occupy your hands.
@@Mote.You can buy or make an head band that can turn a lot of hand held torches into a head torch basically.
The bag you carry does matter. 9 of 10 people in my area carry bags. A good mix of all types and sizes.
The thing with the bag looking like a civilian vs military bag is incorrect. anyone with a bag is going to be a target because you possibly have supplies in it.
It matters. In beginning the civilian bag will be looked as a college or office bag while a military bag will be assumed the one with more and better supplies.
In later times a civilian bag will show you meek and vulnerable means anyone who attack you will without much thought and planning, which you have better chances to win or avoid. While with a military backpack you will be assumed as skilled, fighter, army guy etc and thus if someone attack you it'll be with proper planning and preferably from a distance to avoid confrontation.
@@LittleUrbanPrepper yes i agree but people know about preppers,ordinary people and wanting to hide in a serious situation. plus with all the videos saying don't buy military backpacks everyone gonna be assuming that anyone with a backpack has military training that there just hiding because they want to be seen as a civilian.
If they have a civilian bag on but cargo pants on like he’s wearing in the video, that’s a dead giveaway he has a bag of goodies.
O interessante é ser um GMD. Diretiva do homem cinzento. Ser tático é ser um alvo. É a arte de passar desapercebido msm preparado. Dissuadir as suas potencialidades
A well thought out approach to an Urban Bug Out Bag. I suggest a small pry bar. It would be a little extra weight, but it might be useful in acquiring supplies (depending on the circumstances), and it might serve a dual purpose as a defensive weapon. Thank you for the video.
Thank you for the comment! Pry bar is an option, just not sure I would need it where I live. Have pepper spray for protection. Best
@@MrDonkov I keep Pepper Gel in my bag. I have a small pry bar in my bag.
@@MrDonkov Depending on how bad things got in general, you might need it to acquire supplies.
@@podsmpsg1 I'm an American and a Texan. I don't imagine I'd have to tell what I'll have handy for self defense.
Eu tenho um conjunto de chave micha para destrancar cadeados na minha mochila de emergência. Não pesa nada praticamente!
Helpful tip: When looking for gear, look up backpacking & hiking items & accessories, I'm a bikepacker, as well as a prepper, so coming from that background, it makes me really focus on size & weight, & I try as best as I can to buy items that AT LEAST do 3 in 1 things, it helps cut down on a lot of weight.
True, similar with me.
A few things I'd like to address, firstly I would suggest it just getting a dedicated whistle, compass, and lens instead of that combo whistle thing. Secondly insect repellent does not work on ticks at all. If you want to keep ticks away you'd be better off using permethrine and/or a tick removal tool. I'd also swap out those matches for stormproof matches.
Great, thank you for the suggestions!
awesome video, you should create affiliate links to the items you have & add the links to the description of this video, could make a couple extra dollars as people buy the items
Descobri teu canal agora pouco. Moro no Brasil e a situação por aqui não anda muito confortável. Estou montando duas mochilas de evasão e me preparando para me deslocar até outro ponto. Alugar uma casinha na zona rural e ja está nela qnd tudo vier abaixo. O q vc me indica a fazer qnd eu botar os meu pés para fora de casa ? Está sempre em movimento? Obrigado
I thought that might be the case from your accent. In the USA many commercial buildings have outdoor spigots, but usually those spigots don't have handles. A Silock key is what is used to turn water on and off. If you did a google search you could see what one looked like. You can buy them in any hardware store and they would cost less than $10.00 US. It would ba a good addition yo your tool roll. Keep up the great work.
Great job!! Congrats on a great kit. I wud say maybe your knife and saw should be more closely looked at in whether u trust ur life with them. I would use different ones but if your truly happy about them then fabulous!! Just a suggestion no criticism here. I try to go with very well made tools. Our lives depend on them.!! But if u feel your happy then no judgements from me. Be well stay safe and I wish u and your family blessings!🙂
Thank you sir! I agree with what you say.
Great video! Where do you get your video clips from for your intro? And I love that light weight magic Carpet
Thank you! I got the images from Unsplash, they are free photos to use.
One thing I don't understand. If SHTF and u can't use your car, why not pack alternate transportation...like a scooter or a folding bike...or regular bike. That way, u don't have to set off on foot and u make time and thus can possibly carry less gear to make it home. Why does everyone set off on foot? Just sayin'
Good point!
10:45 ... Rope attachment is called a *LAN-YARD*
czcams.com/video/AYVsdlcUVZw/video.html
A lanyard is a cord, length of webbing, or strap that may serve any of various functions, which include a means of attachment, restraint, retrieval, and activation and deactivation.
The word lanyard actually comes from the French word of *“laniere”* which means strap or thong.
The first lanyards were just simple straps made of rope or cord found aboard the ship and tied around a pistol, sword or whistle. A lanyard is also a piece of rigging used to secure or lower objects aboard a ship.
I’d rather work out and carry more stuff that’s what I’m doing rn and so far I can comfortably carry 60 pounds
I’m putting together Bug Out Bags for my family and am having trouble: if I add all the things suggested, the bags will be too heavy to carry. So now I have to sort out which things not include and hope I’m doing the right thing. FRUSTRATING!
Eu estou montando as minhas mochilas de emergência e percebo q a todo momento preciso otimizar tudo dentro dela para ela ficar com o peso bem distribuído.
Good stuff! What is the brand on that roll out bag ?
Helicon Tex

Why is a carabiner called a carabiner?
The word carabiner entered English some time around 1915, during World War I. The word ultimately has its roots in the German word Karabinerhaken, meaning “carbine hook”-a hook used to connect a soldier's carbine (a type of rifle) to a strap. In English, the word was shortened to carabiner.
Where are u bugging out to? What will you do when the bag supplies are exhausted?
It is meant as a temporary solution, as mentioned in the beginning of the video. Cheers ;)
Really nice bag, but in my eyes a bit overkill. If I'd be in an urban environment when the sh*t hits the fan, I would want to contact my loved ones to say that i'm fine and on the way home. You don't have any communication devices included. (Your mobile probably won't Work because the net is the net is blocked due to too many falls going out of the city) Than some cash (unlikely that the whole country went south at once and money is not accepted anymore). And of course water, some Food and shelter. Your bag leaves the Impression as If you plan on staying in a nearby forrest till the city is rebuild.
Do you have the link for your pouch?
The duck tape can be used on wounds
True, the urban paramedic :)
Rain protection clothing is missing? Lightweight poncho ?
Good point! Tnx for the suggestion.
no sense in leaving my prepared home for the fkn woods.
You lost me at bug spray
Good.
@@MrDonkov if it makes you feel any better it’s probably the only thing my wife would pack
This video is so painfully cheap, even thr graffiti on the wall said bansky😅
Wait.....the guy (John) went to his car to get his bug out bag and went on foot to get home instead of driving himself as far as he could and shortened his walk 😂😂😂
Maybe the vehicle was unusable 🤷
All over the city the roads were blocked ;)
