me, who can't even afford a single sandbag: *i suppose i shall wither in the basement*
Sandbags are super cheap just look it up dam
*fam
Dig out a hole and shore up the walls with some decent logs put a roof on it with some logs and a tarp then cover it with dirt,it'll work just as good
@@Tedwasright can't keep 'em in the house, live with anti-preppers
@@hairlessharescrambler56 i'll prolly just block the basement window up and try to create a little insulated shelter in one corner.
In middle school an old Japanese man spoke at my school library. He survived one of the bombs because he had a basement office and had dropped a pencil. He was bent down under his desk picking up that pencil when the building fell around him. The pencil and desk saved him.
an old desk is pretty much a bunker sense its used in tornados earthquakes an nuclear bombs an lockdowns
This is why you should ignore cheap ikea furniture and embrace old sturdy furniture
@The Adventures Of Tom Sawyer, do you remember the turtle that would hide in his shell?
duck and cover
I don't think the nuclear blast would be the bigger risk for most of us that don't live in major cities. Probably more like fallout.
what's scarier than a nuclear blast? surviving a nuclear blast.
Very true.
Yeah there's a nuclear blast by me I'm just going to die thank you
People forget what will have to come when the fallout has settled. No government, no structure. Just a fractured society of broken people who now have to live in the product of someone else’s decision
Yep all the peepers think they are going to just wait it out but there will be nothing either way. If you see a nuke enjoy the view
@astrotakota your funny if you think that.we might not be at our original strength but governments will still exist.think about how many bases/ships we have atm.thry can't take them all out.
A poor mans fall out shelter is an umbrella.
And a glass of wine.

*Raincoat
Nah their fall out shelter will be a cardboard box
Unfortunatly my Home Owners Association will only let me keep 195 sand bags on my property .
Those bastards ..
Don’t worry the government wouldn’t want people panicking so you won’t know till after😂
Why specifically 195?
Can't you literally build a lil fortress with that many sandbags lol
@@diana2725 I ll try it and let you know ..lol
@@luigimrlgaming9484 Good question . I ll have to ask the bastards lol
I think I'll just go on the roof and open a beer to watch it
Exactly, I am old and lazy, who cares to survive that, just enjoy the flash and beer.😂
Exactly take my dog with me and pray to God and accept my fate.
I'll have a budlight with you and then we can make out
At that point drinking bud lights no longer a worry, your definitely going to mutate into something weird🤣
Naw go for the hard liquor it's the end of the world
I got news for ya! At 72 years old if there's a Nuke headed for NYC I'm gettin' my welding goggles,😎 my beach recliner 💺 and my popcorn 🍿 and punchin' my first class ticket to smitherinesville❗Next stop Kingdom come❣️
gamma dont matter that much at least with nukes its the fallout ie dust snow rain ice etc that has picked up alpha particlez thatll get ya for that you need physical barriers of course but also filtration
Fallout also has gamma radiation, and that is the big bad. Alpha radiation doesn't even penetrate clothing, you would need to ingest or breathe it in before it can do any damage.
Fallout is the source of the gamma radiation. He's not talking about the prompt gamma pulse.
Alpha emitters are only really a hazard if ingested.
If material "picks up" alpha particles, it just becomes infused with harmless helium, generally.
😷 👕 👖 👢
Need potassium iodine pills, too
"How to survive a nuke" Pray
As we said in the 60's; bend over, grab your ankles, and kiss your ass goodbye.
For a Shelter 3 bags thick, you need about 5,000 bags for a 30ft. × 15ft. × 8ft high structure, including a flat roof. This is assuming full bags are about 1 foot by 1.5 feet and ⅓ foot thick, and also assuming the structure is fully above ground.
It's better to dig-in at least half the height, and this supplies the dirt for the bags anyway. But if you're in a wet/ flood area, above ground might be the only option. Fully in-ground, if possible, is the best.
Contaminated water and air most will die from radiation poisoning any way so have at least one grave dug per person .
"At least"😂
That why you also prepare a water filter and dust mask.
@@Evan_Bell for radiation ? WTF .better have access to a plane .or at least helium balloons .
@@michaellalanae7228 You can filter out radiative particulates that makeup fallout. It's just dust that has condensed out the cloud (from ground material that was vapourised, leaving behind a crater, and being lifted into the cloud as it rises), and is contaminated with radionuclides from the fission products produced by the bomb.
They range from around 20 micrometers to 200 micrometers, average between 37.5 and 50 micrometers.
A standard N95 dust mask has a 95% effectiveness of filtering out particles below 0.3% microns, far smaller than most fallout particles.
Something like a lifestraw is effective down 0.2 microns suspended in water.
@@Evan_Bell cesium 137 ?138 , radioactive iodine ,?
Ok, but there is still alpha and beta particles that you have to worry about. And the E.M.P. And the fire storm. Best thing to do is go into a center room in your house ideally without any windows, put a table in there and stack books, sand bags or dense things on top to prevent gamma rays. Seal off vents, light switches, cracks on doors etc with plastic and ductape. Keep potassium iodide tablets and iodized salt if your poor. You would have to wait about 3 days. After that period most of the gamma rays and fallout would have dissipated by 90%. The emp can be prevented by having a fariday cage. You can make them for like 10$ and some junk.
Interesting I wonder if that is something that truly is possible with what you propose I’m going to have to look into it thank you 😊
@@krisa3528 no problem
commenting for future reference
3 days?
nope more than that.
@@jayytee8062 it depends
My house has a tornado shelter in the basement.
I have beans, rice, tuna. Ramin noodles, etc. I have a creek nearby. I have a wood burner in the house.
I'm old and retired, I have a heart condition so all that preparation doesn't mean much.
Yes and unfortunately that creek would be contaminated, for how long, idk... I understand what your saying tho.
@Tammy-q3w
My creek has brook trout living in it. I can boil water.
It's not perfect but beats bottled water hoarding.
The democrats are a dumpster fire, everyone's knows it except the woke sheep
I think just stepping outside and getting it over with is preferable to living in a ruined world with preppers, warring factions and radioactive wastelands
Its even funnier that you think it will play out like a fallout game 😂😂
@@DefeatedElite Honestly man. I don't give a fuck how it plays out, that was just an example
@@DefeatedEliteWell it will either be a bloody Fallout Game, and I’m talking about gritty no bullshit Fallout 1 or the Walking Dead (minus the zombies) with warring factions or tribes or whatever is left in the wastes.
😂,it'll be a wasteland for 1,000 years.
I for one am excited
Hide in fridge
Indian Jones and the kingdom of the Crystal Skull!👌
For about 3 days :-|
Survive. The blast but die slowly
These sandbags are specifically designed to protect you from the fallout, so that you don't die slowly.
@Evan Bell But like, radiation is going to be everywhere, you can't stop ground water from flowing in through the dirt below your feet, nor can you keep enough materials to survive in a dirt hole
@@dagonolson564 In all but a very few parts of the world, mostly very close to bodies of water on flat terrain, the depth of the water table is enough that the dirt between you and it is sufficient to protect you from any fallout that may run into it.
With 3 ft of dirt, you only need to shelter 24 hrs, depending on the level of local fallout, then you can leave the area and make your way to a less contaminated place. If you prepare some water and food or even if you don't, you can certainly survive in a dirt hole for a day.
I live in London so during a nuclear war I'd get atomised within seconds
Start digging some catacombs friend
though Brittan should still have old ww2 bunkers right???
Go down to the abandoned tubes below your cities.....
Yep the tube is a good location for sure
Remember the German Blitz? You might be bloody fine because most underground train stations in the UK are all made for surviving air raids.
There is nothing wrong with embracing it and being ready for heaven....this world is not fit for humans anymore. Everybody is crazy.
Honestly, it’s true, we are more of a burden than a help to Earth
This world is fit for people. it's the people that aren't fit for people. Its like something got into their heads and filled it to the brim with bitterness. They oughta take a step back and look at the bigger picture
I agree, if by Gods Grace I survived then so be it, but I will not work against the natural forces of life and death.
The world is not fit for capitalism. Why should we have to die so Raytheon can turn a profit?
There won't be anything else I can assure you because I identify myself as God...
Someone obtained a boatload of sandbags and came out with a idea for profits :)
follow the moolah
In Japan a guy hide behind huge rocks literally survived for two nukes attacks and live till old age. So I assume if we don’t have sand, rocks will be a good idea as well. Btw sandbags are useful in lots of situations for nukes or not so why not keep some at home anyway.
Hid
Those were low yield nuclear weapons. Nowadays nukes are much more powerful.
@@TyTy-gm8ybone nuke will now destroy one britain
@@muramasa870 And do you think that Russia is safe? Russia boasts with the nuclear arsenal it possesses, but Britain messily 200 nukes arsenal is enough to put Russia and the whole planet in absolute misery. Do you think that if Russia nukes Britain, even without retaliation, that the nuclear cloud will stay over Britain for an eternity, or that it will move from place to place and reach Russia too?
@@TyTy-gm8yb i wanted to say one britain sized radius
The fallout is most active in the first few days... You don't want to be outside building a shelter, hide in whatever existing structure you can find until at least the short half-life isotopes have decayed.
He didn't say how to survive in a current one, but you find the closest house or building, go to the middle of the house, and lie face down, first the house will protect you from any small or large debris, second when you go to the middle of the room you will be far from the walls which will have radiation, and third when you lie down you stop radiation from getting to you for the most part. That is all I remember, so just look up a vid about it and it will explain it better.
But you won't be prepared like in the movies and it will happen when you are at your worst time
True
I have a blanket so i just have to hid under my blanket and nothing can hurt me
Well you've got about as much chance as anyone trying to build a fallout shelter out of sandbags!!
Man if a nuke gets launched anywhere close to me, I’m just getting at the highest spot possible with everyone I love and enjoy my last few minutes of life
Basically if you live in an urban area and even 20% of the nukes that fall on your city explode, the death rate will be 100% the radiation will kill everyone outside of the cities as well as all animals. 1000 years after a nuclear war, the enviroment will have already collapsed and Earth will become a dead world with huge sand deserts and very little left in terms of life. Those who made it to their fancy bomb shelters will be long dead, either having killed themselves or having been murdered and eaten. I see a "no survivors" senario every time. The only way mankind survives is to set up a colony on Mars with 20,000 men and women. Mankind then will survive.
Doesn't work that way. You might not die instantly.
3ft of soil in under 10 minutes……👍🏻🤣🤣🤣
I just hope I’m instantly vaporized in the blast so I don’t have to survive in a post apocalypse world where everyone is dying of cancer
Yeah let me just fill 100 sandbags and dig a fallout shelter and build an air filtration system and move 2 weeks worth of food and water into my hole in the ground before the fallout kills me.
U got 5 to 10 minutes if that helps
Fridge.
indiana Jones approved
My priority would be a high end air filtration system. Bonus is it keeps you safe from smoke, smog, allergens silica and smells year round.
For a nuke exchange I won’t have time to sandbag my windows and that’s be exhausting to do in a gas mask.
I don’t live near anything I’d consider a target and if it is then the nuke exchange is so vast it would be almost impossible to survive outside for years. But wind will carry fallout around the world like it did at Chernobyl. NBC grade filters are expensive but even a vehicle filter will greatly reduce the contaminated dust that gets to you.
Getting thru the radiation sickness will be the hardest part, consumable iodine a must besides the fallout shelter.
Yes, get potassium iodide pills.. It's for that and your thyroid. Walmart, Amazon...per person., read label. If you have a basement.. Stay in the inner most room , close to middle of home a good 3-5 days depending on how close you where to ground zero... obviously if to close, won't matter😞. Do not, go outside out from your location, period for that length of time... So you must be prepared in case.
@@Tammy-q3w i live on a sailboat off of key west, hopefully fall out won't be that much of a problem and potassium iodine pills will help with the radiation i may encounter. Thank you for posting!!!
@@wallyworld817 Well your very welcome.. That sounds awesome. I've dreamt of having a big sailboat and sailing around the Caribbean and living off seafood!! Lol.. not kidding..🤣 Hope this scenario for not happen, stay safe. Thank you for replying!
@@Tammy-q3w you can do it!!! Not easy being a co-creator but it sure is fun!!!
@@wallyworld817 I bet it is, my physical condition... Nope! Lol..little, among other things.. But it's why I dream it! If you catch your own seafood 🦞 it must be fantastic.. may God bless you. Hope you know Jesus literally, as your Savior, Lord and friend💯🕊️👍
But they don't. What they DO have is ten thousand cans of soup and twice that in ammunition because they think they're gonna shoot their way out of an infection.
How many shelves of canned goods will block gamma?
What happens if you’re at work when it happens cause town like mine you ain’t getting home till it’s too late.
Cities have shelters.
Good advise. I never leave home without my 3' thick sand bag suit
If the ground is too hard to dig a shelter, isn’t it too hard to dig the dirt to fill them bags?
And just where the hell am I going to store those said few hundred bags of sand
Attic/top of ur car/house.
@@goododays1812 put that amount of sand bags in the attic and the whole thing would collapse
I would store the empty bags, then fill them with mud/ soil if I need them, but we won't be getting enough notice to build anything so it's pretty pointless I think.
I think the idea is to use for some dort of fallout shelter set up. so if you dont have space for that, it wouldn't apply. for example , instead of digging a fallout shelter, you might, in the same spot, build a shelter with the sandbags. it's good to k nk oe solid earth, dirt, sand will shield radiation
Ok you survive the initial blast, you will still die within weeks from the fallout,
The dangerous fallout you refer to is made up of nuclear material which projects gamma rays, so if you are protected from gamma rays your also protected from the bulk of nuclear fallout, so long as your not inhaling nuclear ash or eating irradiated water or food
@@PADOYLE Bro I don't want to be rude, but did you even reed my comment all the way through. I said you were good so long as you werent breathing in nuclear ash, i.e radioactive particulates
@@hunterfalkenberg2837I fail to see how sandbags protect you from the gamma emmiting nuclear fallout. Sandbags aren't going to prevent the fallout from contaminating the interior of your shelter.
@@skiddlyd.244 Yeah your definitly right, you cant use only sandbags, but also don't think thats the point. Sandbags are gonna do a really good job of insulting a shelter from outside radiation, however your still gonna need a ventilation system and good seals on everything, I think the point here is that you can sort of create the conditions of being underground when unable to dig, like still having a proper shelter just with the protection afforded from being underground by using a thick layer of sandbags which are just bags of dirt
Sees mushroom cloud, hold up, let me make a sand bag shelter. 5 min later...
I choose not to stick around for the after credits of a nuclear war. I'm gonna leave a shadow.
Joe Biden says thanks .
Quitter
I could mix the sand with some lead to provide more survivability
not trying to survive that horror, I'm running toward the blast. enjoy the apocalypse
Yeah, no one will survive it long anyway, a bunker is good for other events though
In Texas we all have underground tornado shelters. Steel doors 🚪 and locks internally
In Oklahoma they say have a plunge pool. Many that survived Japan were able to do so falling into a ditch that had enough water to cover their backs and then walked out of the epicenters edges. Documented on discovery channel.
that is true sense my state is mostly farmlands an towns with have ditches that are deep an water is used in nuclear reactors an other power plants to keep them cool an water is a nuclear barrier in cooling pools to keep radiation at background levels though id prefer a storm cellar that's deep in the ground an has a lead layer between the cement or concrete for extra protection though id modify mine to have a way for it to have a water supply dial up Ethernet food an power an a radio system to listen to stations an to try an contact military
@@joshuaryanferguson3702yes, when you contact the military make sure you give them your exact location so they can come an confiscate all your preps.. good luck.
So, a family of 4 needs enough for each member. Plus their supplies
The construction industry has warned us the world is running out of sand.
Not in the US, we got plenty of sand here.

@@thomasjefferson6334 Yes that's what l thought too. Remember that glass is yet another product manufactured from sand.
@@JG-PyroTX 50 billion tons of it a year? Desert sand is useless for construction as it does not bind with cement. As you seem to doubt me, just Google it for yourself.

"In nuclear war there is no winner; there are only degrees of losing." I heard that on another video and it stuck with me. When it comes to the scenario of a nuke being dropped, the possibility of getting out unscathed hovers between "nil" and "none". The best outcome you can hope for is to be unscathed enough to leave the area before the fallout hits.
How there is no winner it must there is a winner
@@zarakikenpachi9475 you don't "win" a nuclear war - you just hope you're not as fucked up as the other guy. If that's what counts as winning I'd rather not play.
@@AINGELPROJECT667 i agree everyone lose but we cant say there is no winner like for example in chess i lose my pieaces but i win
There isn't going to be any where to hide. No one is going to survive.
I don't have either one 😔
We’ve all seen this episode. You just jump into a refrigerator.
Lay down with your head towards the blast cover your head with arms and be ready it blows out then implodes. So stay down till everything becomes calm after the back blast.

Only problem is u need to remain under the ground for about 100-1000yrs call it a dirt nap
While it's always good to have sandbags at disposal, 3ft high stacks on few m2 area will need proper support otherwise the weight alone will crush you way before radioactivity will
I'm not sure where to store all that sand 🤔
Just buy the bags and use soil.
Literally just jump in a pool to survive the blast then run away from the fallout
I'm in Florida and that was my first thought
How to survive a nuclear blast:
Don't be in a nuclear blast. There, fixed it.
I’ll tell my landlord immediately of my plans to surround the building with sandbags. Lol
Everyone forgets about the plastic tarps you need to actually use sandbags for water proofing
The beauty of dispensing advice like this is no one will ever be coming after you if it's wrong ! They used to tell them to ball up in the streets ! "Duck and cover !" They knew no one would be complaining after the blast !
The Army told me to lay in the ground flat and hold my Kevlar.
✍️ 300 hundred sand bags ✍️
I know where my local dike district keeps their 400k empty sandbags.
I use legos
And Potassium Chloride tablets, you'll have to come out sometime
Start filling those sandbags as soon as you see the flash
If there’s nuclear war, I hope I’m at ground zero. No fallout for me thx
What about garbage bags filled with water and placed inside pillow cases?
Water is very heavy, it would break the bag
You will need a lot more water 😅 than 3feet
@@user-bi8ko7kc6hAbout double, to have the same effect.
Ground is too had to dig a hole for a shelter, so buy sandbags and dig a hole to fill them. Yeah...
3ft of earth is NOT enough to stop gamma radiation, it will still go through
What about bottles of water,
Nuclear missile otw fill those bags smdh
Glad I bought that 3 tones of sand last summer. Geuss it doesn't just have to sit in the garage now.
The hard part is filling an placing 3 feet thick of sandbags over a shelter in less than an hour.
An hour? I thought it was 5 seconds.
Where do you get these kind of bags to fill?
@GlockTard sand bags dont have to be filled with sand. it can be earth/dirt for example as long as its fine enough to be compacted and no full of airpockets
@GlockTard most landscaping suppliers carry sand.
If you know someone that keeps any kind of livestock, ask them for their empty feed bags. If you use those, though, keep them out of the sun because the UV degrades the plastic within about a year.
@@AgnesMariaL ok I have those. Guess I was looking for smaller ones. But I'll just fill half way. Thanks.

Sandbags are often given for free during heavy rain seasons. Here in Arizona (yes the desert) we get sand bags for free at multiple places. Bring your own shovel, maximum 10 per person per day. But the bags are often not super durable. They'll last the rainy season but will not withstand the summer sun. You can sometimes find construction sites with more durable sandbags. Ask the crew if you can help clean up and as payment maybe have a few of the sandbags. I have 10 thick bags and 5 thinner cheap ones keep empty and indoors. If I need emergency sand I got to a dry river bed locally known as a wash.
Great, even as a civilian I'm still filling sandbags.
That would be a little too late
But he’s got so many for sale. Shhh.
I really want to see what coffin he makes in the like 7 minutes after initial warning itll be before bombs hit these days.
If we detect it at all
Read the book 📖
By the end of the great tribulation men are more scarce then Gold. If you don’t rapture with Jesus…..Believe on him now for forgiveness of Sins
Revelation 6:15-16
And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Got a basement sand bags are a pain in the ass to fill and your gonna need to have the fallout shelter built before the bomb hits. Sand bags are good for quick hasty fighting emplacements and flooding
We are beyond this point. But thank you for the information.
Remember kids, trying to survive the nuclear blast is pointless if you're gonna die to starvation or dehydration trying to wait out the fallout.
Then stock up
Great short Nate. This would make a great and useful video, esp how to do the roof part to support it.
I'm just gonna drive to the center of the blast while blaring highway to hell. I ain't living through that shit 🤣
Good thing I own a caterpillar 330DL which can dig 30 feet straight down no problem
you know its the end is near when the nuclear survival videos geting viral
How to survive ... *you dont*
Having used sandbags here in Florida for hurricanes I can tell you they don't last long. Maybe there is a sandbag material that is a heavy duty material that lasts longer.
If a nucle hits I don't want to survive especially in this days
I could have some this TH-cam video up in probably 10 seconds. How to survive a nuclear blast if you don't have a bomb shelter, you don't. Thanks folks! I'm here all week!
Where I live, no amount of sand bags is gonna cut it. I'm on a direct hit list due to military hardware.😮
If you dont have food underground you will die at starvation 😂😂😂
The good thing about Nuclear war we won't feel a thing
They need a way to filter the air. Otherwise they are building their own toomb.
He doesn't care. He just wants you to buy the sandbags lol😅
Unless you have that fallout shelter built before the bomb goes off you're still crispy Critters and it would probably take hundreds of sandbags
Really the gama not what you need to worry about. It’s the fallout on the radioactive dust and particles that can get through the cracks in between all your sandbags, which is realistic you would want much more than just sandbags
Go get the bagster it is grate it is a 4 feet by 8 feet by 4 feet tall dumpster bag will save you a lot more time 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great idea!
