As a prepper, I would NEVER let the world know what I do, what I have, or where I put it.
All due respect, I think you extreme preppers should stop bullshitting yourselves with these concepts of survival and dooms day, why can’t you just admit that you are doing this because it’s so fun and exciting. Don’t get me wrong, I really admire what you guys do, society is so boring nowadays, what you guys do is so exciting, I’m jealous… I’ll probably do that as a hobby when I retire, so I don’t die of boredom lol
Then how are you going to get youtube views?
@@gene3497 well..... Would be nice to have food😊
@@gene3497 i wonder how secure the citizens of Rome felt in the years before their civilization's collapse.
@@MrThatpersonthatguy So true, except when it comes to that level of disaster, your shelter or underground bunker won't save you anymore than a shelter could have saved a Roman peasant back in Rome when the city went under... In that kind of situation, your only option is to run...
My point is these preppers are having fun, not really about survival lol
This show needs to be brought back but done in a more serious way.
It would be nice if they did some follow ups as well
Agreed.👍🏻
IDK seems like it is pretty serious and real to me. These people were about a decade to soon though.
@@hockeyguy1364 i mean its safe to assume they still have, if anything its probably completed now and ready for it lol
@@hockeyguy1364 u think so...with everything going on in the world? Watch ..Canadian Prepper.
I love how supportive his family is. Its quite sad how traumatizing that fire mustve been, I hope this brings him peace with that
You can see how it still hurts for him to talk about it.
I think he’s having a little bit of fun building that bunker
I don't care, but good for you.
So many people see this and can't figure out where to start. I started prepping before YK2 because I had a 3 yr old daughter and didn't want her to suffer. So I started with $20 and bought rice and beans. Then I added more can veggies. My grandmother gifted her pressure canner and hundreds of jars and showed me how to can. My father tripled the size of his garden that summer and we canned, pickled, dehydrated, etc... Y2K ended up as a non-event, but I was pretty self sufficient by then. I still prep after all this time, and have used my preps for different events. My husband was laid off for several months and we didn't need to buy food. Hurricanes and local tornados have left us without electricity for up to 2 weeks, but we have solar panels, a generator, and oil lamps. So all the preps are comparable to insurance. They're there when you need them. And it all started with $20 spent on rice and beans.
Just don't let it consume you
sooner or later most people move from doomsday prepping to just wanting to live a self sustainable healthy lifestyle@@youdontseeanoldmanhavinatw4904
Glad you’re doing great now!
The age old phrase of "better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it is so true! A lot of people think that you have to be rich to Prep is a lie. Start with basic things like storing water with certain chemicals to keep to store it for long term, rice, beans peanut butter and corn & regular flour to make tons of bread, and other eatable items and of course can foods.
So many people seem to think if you can't be 100% prepared for any and everything, might as well not try. Something is better than nothing, always.
Also, the more people that do that to some extent, the less likelihood of negative interactions with others. Much more room for co-operation among people that are less desperate.
The perfect is the enemy of the good.
Most people will be targets for the small amount of useful stuff they have (not likely to survive an attack), or they will be meat for human trafficking of some sort. Only the super wealthy, relevant government officials, former and current military, and some preppers would last a reasonable amount of time.
Ideally, a community of cooperative people guarantees survival. Firearms and ammo help the nice people keep and the predators take.
Better to at least take a swing in the batters box than to be sitting on the bench with your thumb up your…
Yep. A case of veggies is a lot more food than no food at all.
The fact that we get free documentaries from National Geographic on TH-cam is priceless. keeping the education and knowledge alive.. 🙏🙏🙏
*keep the propaganda alive
It'll be difficult for those who have done nothing. Keep prepping as though your life depends on it cause it does.
My jaw dropped as I read Native American population in their motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions.
Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION.. It is a shockingly sad truth. 😔
@@supremelyeducated3273 Everything in the past was much different, but us Natives and everybody else must stick to the present ⏳️, try to rise above your past personal mistakes and grow closer to God. (Jesus Christ ✝️) This whole apocalypse thing might just start, who knows.... Good luck everybody.😎✌🏽
Speaking of Europe which is actually a huge livable Continent with 45 nations. Russia alone is a ginormous nation which occupies nearly half of Europe with a relatively small population. Nearly half of mainland Asia, from Siberia to Far-East Asia also is inside Russia.
By the way, the "land grab" is more of the same in Asia-Pacific region where European Colonizers such as Britain and Russia have already Colonized half of Asia, stretching from Australia/New Zealand, to Siberia/Far-East, all in Asia-Pacific region.
Russia occupied vast resource rich Siberia to Far East ever since 17th & 18th century, while Anglo British, sailing halfway around the world from jolly old England, took over giant resourceful landmass of Australia & New Zealand in 18th & 19th century; all in Asia-Pacific, while Native people of Asia-Pacific region are left with and quarreling over a few tiny islands in South China Sea while Anglo Australia/New Zealand have already claimed big chunks of nearby Antarctica.
My grandmother called it getting ready for winter. She lived through the Great Depression and remembered what is was to have nothing. She always had a big garden and tons of canned goods she put in mason jars herself
At age 67, Ive been prepping for 20+ years. I live in the philippines now where my money goes very much further. I have ceased prepping. For now. I am wondering if I have the desire to just survive. Each year that passes, my 20 years of prepping simply to have to hide and fight to survive has less and less appeal to me.
So I have become an "Afterllife Prepper"
I’m 64 now with a severe spinal cord injury, I had some decent preps for a while but while I was recovering from a surgery and out for 4 months, my nephew got my son n his wife addicted to some drugs and they stole everything…. I think I have a month of stuff to get by now
But like you I’m ok with the choice I made to prepare for the next life and find Spiritual Prepping to be a much better option for me at this point and stage in my life as well
When it comes I can’t do anything about it anymore
It’s all in Gods hands and I hope I am too
@@themenace4017I'm as well.. I'm just 40 years old but getting my own place to do all that is just too expensive so I just preps what I can and leave everything to God
@@ricedrown Then my friend your in the best hands their could, would that you & yours will ever be in. There are Prophecys that for those who place their faith & trust in Christ that you will be protected from the evil that will come, there is nothing better than that. May God send his angels to watch over and protect you
What an awesome and caring grandfather! That first family is so lucky to have someone looking out for and preparing for their well being.
I totally agree
You can tell grand daughter has been consumed by the new generational society. They have no idea of possible war or invasion.
Definitely
That was my thought throughout
That's true, but unfortunately, his preparations won't be very effective.
He and his family in a bunker like that are just like rats in a trap!
First rule of Prep Club, don't talk about Prep Club.
Yep, lose lips sink ships.
Please more of these ,they are perfect for this day and age!
Agree.
completely crazy.
@@zenokarlsbach4292
What's your plan ⁉️🤔
i like how you say completely crazy, but you do realize its not even been 100 yrs since ww2 right bro?@@zenokarlsbach4292
Having the generator outside, makes you vulnerable, because anyone that wants to do you harm, can reach it and control your living situation. Better is to have a backup system that can be stored inside with power reserve (solar power station) that kicks in when the generator stops. The fact that you need to leave your bunker to fill up makes the whole family a target.
Exactly, all those that didn’t prep will be drawn to the noise of a generator running. I know if I didn’t prep and needed food for my family I would go to the sound of the generators ASAP. It’s going to be dog eat dog world.
There is a problem with that, though. I know of an entire family here in Australia who died due to a generator running in their basement (which we call a 'cellar' in Australia). Carbon monoxide poisoning. All issues with relying on electricity too much has its drawbacks. In a true shtf situation, I think it's dangerous to assume you are going to live life with the luxuries we currently have. The old fashioned, pre electric ways are of great benefit to learn.
Yea I don't like the idea of one person in charge of all the weapons. Sounds like disaster just weeks away
@@rebeccadelbridge2998sadly they have a freezer they plan to stick with 400lbs of meat that is electric. Bad call either way, they'll need at least 2 people guarding the power at all times with two fire power, not pistols. The sound alone will draw hungry people from 3 miles away, not mentioning word of mouth and clans forming to see what's going on. Never under estimate a father with hungry and desperate family.
They were working out the kinks in their system. Even the best of the best preppers admit that there will be something they missed due to the scenario or cost prohibitiveness.
My grandfather fed his family through the great depression with a sling shot. Rabbits, squirrels, possum, and turtles were all on the menu. He had a very small single shot 22 rifle that he used for deer. But it was saved for those special occasions.
Gosh I wish I had a grandfather like that. I would be so honored.
Me too, but i wish i had family at all. Once my dad goes its just me out here. Thats the worst part about having much older parents.
@@PaddyBoyBKLYN Better than having a family that neglects/abuses you. I always felt like people are supposed to choose their families.
I would be incredibly embarrassed
Do not be so consumed by fear that you forget to live
but also preparing, or your life will be short lmao
I agree, our power gird is so fragile. Look at what happened in the deep freeze in Texas.
I live in NC and recently some people shot guns at a power station and put over 30,000 people in the dark for over a week.
With this latest deep freeze, Asheville's water supply station was damaged and thousands of people were without water for 10 days.
NOT ONE TIME DID ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY TRY TO HELP THEM!
That should be enough to make everyone realize that the government isn't always going to help you. You will have to help yourself and your family
I live 40 minutes from the shot-up station. Anticipating more.
I feel bad for the first guy. He is trying to protect himself from pain. Reality comes to each of us and pain and death are inevitable.
I agree. I feel sad for him as well. The world treated him poorly and he reacted by trying to shield himself from further harm. So pitiful.
the fact that that many people in your family are armed tells me you've done a great job instilling self reliance on self defense bravo sir.
Yeah that was great
He took the guns though 😂
@@MartianOrion Hitler took the guns.. Mao took the guns.. Gramps took the guns.
“More guns make everybody safer” that’s why he confiscated them…. Gun owners and their BS are so hypocritical.
@@davidkaplan5517 People wonder how society's supported dictators of the past. You are the living breathing answer.
Just watched this in 2023 as we are entering the next depression. In the UK people are choosing between food or heat
Join our prepping community. Scottish Urban Prepper, live online Sunday nights at 20:30. Look forward to seeing you there.
Lies xbox has daily population of millions in the Uk. That sounds pretty poor
All joking aside that a very nice bunker you’re family should be proud of you 👍.
I would totally appreciate my grandpa or a family member doing all of this for me so I could survive.
❤ nice for you
Why not do it for yourself?
Roger needs a solar/battery system -- that gas generator is way too loud and will draw attention from desperate neighbors lurking nearby. Also, sunlight is free!
I didn't think about that but you so right
Roger might want to think about installing a homemade periscope near his dog house escape tunnel. That way, he's not exposing himself to unexpected danger.
@@markchromik1761 All proper off-grid solar power systems have backup parts and redundant batteries and panels. LiFeP04 batteries last an extremely long time. My 300ah Ampere Time is rated at 4000 full charge/discharge cycles to 80% remaining capacity. I got it, panels, inverter, and charge controller for emergency power for a small window air conditioner, especially after hurricanes, plus power for my freezer if its backup batteries can`t keep up in the heat. I can do most of my cooking now too from solar with low wattage devices. Lights are the easy part nowadays. I wish I could figure out how to power my electric water distiller from solar but what I have now has already cost a fortune but I`m glad to have it when the power fails.
even oif all goes there will still be cars with battery's and alienators all have do is re wire it and build u a fan type system find flowing water ......to consistently turn the fan to turn the belt on the alienator it charges the battery
That's what I said. Noise travels far at night.
Sitting duck
I think now is a good time to bring this show back.
The 1st rule of prepping is you DO NOT TALK ABOUT PREPPING
After watching this I realized I am way under prepared 😂
You and me both 😯
Coz u r gonna die first😂
How much do you really need though, they are only safe in certain situations. If they need to become mobile then bunkers are useless. One can never be prepared for every problem that arises.
Be prepare for at least 3 days,,,3 meals a day,
Then go from there.
@@vikingored7469 you can buy you some buckets and mylar bags and oxygen absorbers and rice,corn,beans etc and get you 5 or 10 buckets to start and each bucket will provide I forget the exact amount but one will provide 1 person with a month of food
Lol Texas Power Grid actually failed for a week since this aired.
This show needs to be updated with post-covid knowledge. I’m pretty sure a lot of preppers used some of their resources during the height of the pandemic, especially the toilet paper and water.
i made sure my neighbours didn't run out. why not? they're good to me.
True, We had a neighbor post on Facebook. They wanted some beans and sugar because there was none in the grocery stores. When covid hit, So I took them some. She said. So you are the reason I would not able to get any because you bought them up. I replied I had these for over three years The reason you didn't have any is because you did not plan for hard times , now she and her family are canning Raisin chickens And planning for hard times. And I'm thankful that it woke her and her family up.
19:41 finger on the trigger while climbing up and no targets in sight. This is how you negligent discharge and end up hitting yourself or someone you did not intent to shoot.
his safety was on tho
@@TheNotSoFakeGilbert Yeah but if he was in the Marines he would have learned the proper way to hold a gun
@@tjellis1479lool
Well, yeah, but he talks real slow and you can really tell, it's his way or the Hwy.
@@kepigal He probably got thru basic, but he maintained vehicles.
Never tell people your prepper plans
I remember watching these ten years ago. I find it refreshing to just watch and think about the topic,, evaluate my own preps without having to listen to the constant political BS, fear mongering, and sales tactics of the prepper channels. NatGeo, please create some updated episodes since many technology and political events have really ramped up over the past ten years.
Suddenly preppers don't look so crazy
🎯
no they do
Yeah they still do lol
@@hmartin751 That's gonna age well
@@hmartin751People who didn't prep before covid 19 are way crazier and scarier fighting over a tissue roll and canned sardines
In some ways i like the idea of having a bunker, but then i think about what the world will be like in a post bunker world, and im not sure id want to survive long enough, just to be surrounded by chaos.
But if i ever built a bunker, a much nicer bathroom, and sleeping quarters would go a long way to maintain comfort & sanity.
The coronavirus was a test and we all saw how people reacted fighting for a toilet paper imagine fighting for food and water
I slept painfully, and fell on the floor. 😂
She was not a happy camper. 😅 Honestly, I was worried the kid would fall off the freezer. Seems like installing some simple rails on the sides of the beds would be a good idea, to prevent them from falling off.
I am sure that after a couple of times of falling on the floor, she will learn how to judge how far she can roll in bed. I know I did. I used to roll out of bed and it did not take long to learn where the edge was.@@rachelh5211
I have been in your shoes. I have lost everything in a flood and again in a fire that someone burned us out. I know how you feel. The first thing the fire marshal asked if we had insurance. He thought we burned it down for the money. We had no insurance. You start back a peace at a time.
Separate space and privacy are necessary. Even curtains around bunks make a difference
I wish I had a Grandfather like that. Good job!!
Forgive me if I saw this wrong but didn't the guy have to leave his bunker to fill his generator running his electricity? So somebody could easily steal the generator the gas to go in the generator or purposely turned the generator off to find out where the bunker is and then ambushed the family one guy with a pistol is not going to take out a gang of people insisting on taking his stuff
Thank you for helping other people know how to best survive. Much appreciated.
The family is nice and adventurous. Love how they're banded together as they should be. And as well as teaching the youngers the ropes around the way.
That thing is so secure…good thing it doesn’t get broadcasted to millions of people
That's what I thought.
And one hour outside of Dallas is NOT a safe place to be in a SHTF‼️
He needed the money
@@Nice-qi5cf So he could buy more preps that everyone will find out about.🤣
@@bunnyfoofoo9695 right! Lmao
24 hrs and most of them were going stir crazy? That says a lot about their chances of surviving! We should all think about ourselves and how we would react.
Exactly. Is it worth being alive if you will end up insane from not being able to go outside
I am a prepper but most of the family think it is only for nutcases. The expectation is that only I need to provide anything for them all so that's what I will have to do to keep everyone safe.
The first family should’ve gotten a higher rating I believe. I love how both these families are coming together!! I believe it’s the way it should be!
Anyone else see the glitch at 6:15 lol. Also I love this show and even though I know the documentary makes these people out to be a tad crazy I truly resonate with and agree with the documented practices and have gotten my own ideas for my prep .
Or 31:53
@@piepkwiep4312 i got both lol
Rude how they focused on Grandpa's twitchy eye
that "bunker" is a deathtrap.....you can see all the walls buckling from the weight on the sides. those are meant to stack and hold weight vertically. the walls you tried to add support to only have about 10% of the support they should...
How so? Shipping containers are stacked several high full of shipped goods. For months and years at a time.
Maybe soil pressure on side, but I don't think the top?
@@aquagandaShipping containers manage all the weight over them thanks to their corners, not their paper wide metal sheet.
At 4:53 it looks like Roger is more at risk from a collapse of his shipping container given the side wall bulge and pit prop style bracing...
Target practice with a bow is a good family activity. We lived in an area of ranchettes when I was a kid. We even had neighborhood competitions. My brother and mother were marksman. Often my brother would hit a bullseye. Once, my mother split his arrow in the bullseye.
Gotta remember this was made 6 years before the pandemic. I'll bet a lot of folks who laughed at this show then are now preppers themselves.
I hope. I have 2 brothers who think I'm crazy for prepping, they are halfway across the country.
Probably not. Some of them are probably still suckling the teet of government, depending on them for safety, like they did during the plandemic.
Except it happened and the people who didn’t prep or prep had the same experience.
I am specifically laughing at the chick who thought getting goats was more practical for clothing than sheep and who thought we might actually run out if clothes considering how many billions of clothes are thrown out each year here 😂
Agree, along with some of the extreme weather events we've faced since then...ex: Texas winter storm 2021 - aka "Sno-vid"
The painting was absolutely beautiful. That artist has an incredible eye.
The painting painted by the granddaughter is very encouraging. This is a brilliant idea!
If all these preppers were to unite into a community which extends past their families, their scores would go much higher. I imagine they've considered this and plan to expand later on as they meet like minded neighbors.
I agree that these peppers are taking a chance on losing their privacy, safety, and security by going on these documentaries and doing these show and tell.
But, in previous episodes, several participants had lost points for security in that they were highly or overly prepared but had neighbors who were not. These peppers were encouraged to teach their neighbors to be just as prepared or to be more prepared so that when tshtf, the neighbors will not come raiding and looting. Following advice, the previous preppers started facilitating classes, seminars, and workshops for neighbors and other community members to attend.
I hope it is true that if many more people became Doomsday preppers, we will be safe.
This show needs to be brought back because the world is so close to an actual World War 3.
Actually, we are ALREADY in WWIII. Most people don't realize it though because this fact is intentionally hidden by the media and the politicians to avoid mass panic. If you take a step back and look at the larger picture with the alliances forming, "mysterious" infrastructure fires, substation attacks, increasing train derailments, it becomes crystal clear the gears are well in motion.
FJB 😤
One good thing about Covid.... It stopped the ww3 talks that were happening, for a while anyway
We’ve been close to WWIII since the the Cold War.
WW3 been going on for awhile its just that instead of bombs and bullets its fought with info and $$$$
Great Grandpa, both sides of mine had passed before I was born except My moms Momma, my Grandma.
I wish I had your family, you all are so blessed.
God Bless.
I always suspected Gandalf was a prepper.
There arrow skills as a whole family was epic
I totally agree that something big is coming.
I've been prepping for a year now and will continue to prep until I'm no longer able.
Where do you live?
I've watched EVERY episode of this series years ago at least twice. Which will it be? civil unrest? Saw that during the summer of 2020, you know, the Summer of Love. Grid down? People in Texas know of this with the wonderful wind turbines freezing up a couple of years ago. Even here, in Michigan, we just had a million people without power for days from the ice storm, and now another 300k without power from snow storm last Friday. Population issues? I don't see that happening. But I do see financial crisis. I do see political division. I do see a Great Depression. Despite the lies the MSM is having financial advisors say we're not in a recession now, or for the last year, is a complete lie. They just moved the goalposts for the definition of recession.
27:14 “overpopulation will cause the end of the world… so I had ten kids.”
🤣🤣🤣
10 more kids is a drop in the bucket compared to billions of people. If he decided to be childless that would not change the choices that others have made.
My thoughts exactly
what a beautiful family. thank you for sharing
I know this will likely be scoffed at, but those baby chickens need a mama. There are ways to raise livestock that are still humane and kind. I don't have a problem with eating animals, but they are sentient beings. I believe that giving them the best life possible is our obligation. I have raised ducklings, and their emotional needs are great. Its best to leave it up to their natural mothers. They know what they are doing.
The problem here is that, the government is the very own people you have to be careful from.
respect sir for preparing to look after your family steve
I thought I was having an epileptic fit several times during this...
fi thought it was subliminal
I thought it was the youtube algorithm becoming sentient
@@downwithtrudeau HAA!!!!
@@TheNotSoFakeGilbert took the word's right out of my mouth.
It's good to be skilled in all forms of survival skills - regardless - it's just wise training for all people.
I believe people are beginning to see the reality of our current situation. Yes, there are always threats in the world, but nothing like the combination we are seeing now. Unfortunately, too little too late applies to most of the population.
Question for the pros: If you are cooking in the bunker would people on the outside through the fresh air vents smell the food giving up your location? I'm also concerned for them if somebody hears there generators running. Just trying to learn along with others and not trying to be rude.
Without seasoning it won't be much of a smell 😅 I didn't notice any seasoning so
Valid thoughts/concerns. Depends on food cooked and means to cook food/vent. A gas/diesel, etc generator will generate a moderate noise hence, yes, it can definitely attract unwanted individuals.
There is always something to learn from each of these.
Even though bunkers that are constructed from shipping containers may seem a good idea what I’ve learnt the dirt around the construction will collapse under pressure or another problem is the water plate in some areas can cause flooding of a shipping container. Now meat wise your better off freezer drying if you can afford a machine.
Add foam pads to sleep on and Games to play other types of lighting .battery operated or solar .
Obviously the guy here in Texas with the underground bunker doesn't have a watertight shelter, poor ventilation too!
These preppers are going to harming themselves quicker than the disaster would lol
I'm watching this as we're coming up on 48 hours with no electricity after a storm on March 3, 2023 in Louisville, Kentucky. That's just one of the reasons I'm a prepper.
I have food, water, obviously electrical power, medicine, and protection. Many people have next to nothing. I couldn't live that way......literally.
Good thing you are prepping know I know where u live because you just posted a commit on youttube???
That generator would be a beacon to anyone in the area and that whole family would be in a contained area already and easy to isolate
When he entered a bunker under a dog house, it reminded me of watching old Hogans Heroes with my dad and I wanted one
Accident waiting to happen. Is he climbing the ladder with his finger on the trigger.
I would rethink the gas generator if you have to leave the bunker to put more gas in it.
Love how they always show the worst kind of preppers 😄
- Completely obsessed and lost contact with reality
- Way too specific with what they prepare for
- A lot of lack of common sense
- Ruin it for everybody involved because they are too pushy, for example with their kids
- Tell the world about their secret preps on a TV show
Exactly.
💯
Most people are normal people. TV just edits it so that can get a reaction. Remember tv is an illusion and can change or funnel your preception. Peoples personality are real and many people have layers. Show has to show you something g they are selling for entertainment factor. I wouldn't cheat people are understanding yo enjoy everyday life too.
I remember this show before the pandemic and threat of nuclear war. I wonder if people are taking things more seriously.
Many people have commented about the generator. Fact number one: Your preparedness plans are never finished. There is ALWAYS something to improve, something to upgrade, something to learn and practice. Like life, preparing isn't a sprint, it is a marathon. These situations are a snapshot in time. Who knows, 3 months later, he could have had a basic battery/solar setup in place, relegating the genny to a backup to the backup (i.e. city power > solar power > generator backup)
Absolutely! I’m sure he thought about it more during practice runs as time went on.
24:13 “come try to get in the front door of my bunker” … I don’t have to, I’ll go in the back door… which you just revealed to everyone watching this
We are in WWIII. I have regular intel up on YT. Keep prepping guys 👍 🙏 ✝️
Hello! nice to see you here!
@@resarm5007 Hi Resa 👍
I love how they were all carrying!
" I don't believe there is a limit to what I would do to protect my family, and would have to pray for anybody that didn't have the good judgement to realize that ahead of time".
I like the old feller alot. And I respect him to the fullest.. the mad had a conviction about the safety of his family, and acted on it and took it to the fullest extent of his capabilities...
Papa did an amazing job getting his family situated for bad times . I suggest is to get 4 in foam for the beds so people will b more comfortable so bodies won't hurt while sleeping so they r better to get things done . Other then that did great :) n maybe later on add sum sort or bath or shower system as well in case it is a longer term. Wish we had the space n money to do this for our big family.
thats actually plausible, in 2017 the wannacry breach , if i remember correctly a whole armory of cyberweapons got stolen including the needed exploit data.
Well I guess he’s going to need to get a new back door because he just gave up his position right?
Quick question… generator is outside… so what happens if someone steals it while they in their bunker?
Or follows the cord.
.
The door opening to the outside is a problem. Should have one opening to the inside so you don’t get trapped by stuff flying around with a tornado or bomb.
He’s a Marine. He has a back up for a back up.👍
That grandpa is the sweetest
What good is a bunker if you have to go outside all the time to refill the generator. It would make more sense to stay on the surface so you could see people coming onto the property
That's right,,,
Behing under its tactically a disadvantage you could get smoked out or even buried/trap under there.

You think my security is a 15? Come try.... Sounds like he did not reveal all his secrets and that's the way everyone should be about their preps ...

Yeah your right
