    Music is too loud.

    I think someone's playing battlefield behind you. Can you tell them to turn the music down?

      Winner of a video, I've been looking for "extreme bug out bags pdf" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Janameron Tenylan System - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my m8 got excellent success with it.

    Good point on staying low key with civilian gear. Just as important is the fact that you can often find a superior piece of gear from the commercial rather than military origin. Hence why you often see military members who are able (such as SF) using non military gear.

    I also pack a pill bottle stuffed with about 5 or so cotton balls doused with isopropyl alcohol. Good for fire starting, wound cleaning and probably a dozen other things I haven't thought of. Nice and compact and the bottle doesn't leak or take on water.

    Excellent video. Lots of good info. I like that you show different philosophies and perspectives. Too many people think their bag is THE bag and anything different is wrong. My bag is THE bag for ME. Others would make changes and that's fine.
    Again, great work. Keep it up.

    Hearing Andys story about his friend and basically making a bag with things that you are comfortable and familiar with. (aside from the obvious: fire starter, etc)
    Really helped me in what type of bag my wife and I should have.
    Again the 3 of you did great! thank you

  • @charleshoward448
    @charleshoward448 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like the emphasis on building a bag that suits you personally. In a survival situation, based on my backpacking experience, here's how I break things down, in order of importance: Water, Shelter, Fire, Medical, Food, Protection, Navigation, Communication. I try to start with one thing for each category, then beef up the important stuff and think about special scenarios. In a war zone or combat situation, I think that protection and medical move to the top of the list.

  • @TJackSurvival
    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good point! I am actually surprised I forgot those. I never forgot those when down range with the military. I did however have a canteen and a wash cloth which doubles as a slow shower. Thanks for reminding me to go add it to my bag.

  • @TJackSurvival
    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The process of creating these videos has been an experimentation and training process for me. Every time I see something new and then go out and try it and then post a video on it I learn some new way of looking at the problem and some new technique. Thanks for the compliments. We all are still learning and trying to share what we have as part of the process.

  • @TJackSurvival
    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree and that is why I have the A bag as back up. But I look at it in varying levels of preparedness with a weight volume that at a certain point gives diminishing returns. Some of that stuff can stay at the house, some in the car, and some on my person. I am personally still fine tuning what needs to go where on a weekly basis when. I keep my note book of what I wish I had and what I didn't need or use and rotate out gear on a couple of packs each time I go into the mountains weekly.

    I found this video to be a fascinating look at the paramilitary mentality that some prepper/survivalists can adopt. At a few points, we were even getting a lecture on counterintelligence and social engineering! This is today's version of live-action role playing: grown men envisioning imaginative "what if" scenarios in their minds, and then preparing to live through them. I see no harm in this, but it is totally fascinating how immersed some people seem to get. (Not meant in a bad way.)

    I appreciate your reply. At the risk of sounding arrogant I knew I was right on that one. and that is why I stuck to my guns on it. I have had allergies my whole life and been in the hospital because of some mold I've come into contact with. I also used to be an EMT. But I got the Benedryl suggestion from a SF medic that used to run the hospital in Baghram AF. I use it because it is one medicine that can be used for multiple things from allergies, to a sleep aid, to mild shock prevention.

    Being open to learning new techniques and actually TRYING new equipment is essential. On a side note, I read a comment from about a month ago I think. It was on the subject of Benedryl as an immediate response to allergic reaction. YOU are absolutely correct in your assessment. I had the unfortunate experience of being stung 5 times in the face by a carpenter bee and the first thing the paramedic gave me was 50 of Benedryl via I.V. Jus sayin :)

  • @TJackSurvival
    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I traded my .44 mag to get that Buckmark. The area we were at we could not have put a Cache. But the idea was if you are in your vehicle traveling through an unknown area and you need to get home this is the way to do it according to us. The long guns are just so accurate it is hard to give up, and they work great for multipurpose guns. That 12 gauge of mine was so light I didn't mind it at all. Kinda like a walking stick.

    I talked to Paul today about putting together a vid with list suggestions from BHQ for just in case bags. You aren't the first person to ask for this. So keep watching and we will see what we can do to give you ideas of what to bring. Just think water/purification, fire, food, shelter, and comfort items like socks, and snacks and you should be able to build it from that basic structure. Taylor it to what you are good at and the area and season you are in. Get tools for your car and good luck!

    I also mentioned in the video I have a "first aid kit on my pack" it was an IFAK. I had an A bag in the truck but chose to leave it given the weight and scenario, and Andy having Copious amounts of that stuff. Communication gear we have given thought to and will be carrying CB gear. We had Walmart push to talk radios and have cell phones but it is good to have more. Also a lot of the details you mentioned didn't make it to the final video because we filmed for days and something had to go.

    I do 2 colors for being out in the sticks: Camo/Earthtones or Hi-Visibility (Yellow or Green). I wear OD, Khaki & muted tones on me and have a high visibility construction vest so that I'll either be highly visible or can be invisible when I choose to be.

  • @thewatcher2075
    @thewatcher2075 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    A good foundation to start with for new BOB builders is look into the "nasar sartech 2" minimal list its a 24hr pack list that can be changed to a 72hr or more with simple add/subtract organization on top of that i would highly recommend people take basic first aid classes and wilderness first aid with any outdoor/survival training as well

    I had the same issue that you are describing. My bug out location is remote. I turned to bushcraft and learning about local wild edibles and how to prep them for eating. I went from a 60lb pack to a 13 lb pack. Ex. I had a 3 lb pack shovel that I removed since I could use a stick to do the same job. Went from a 2p tent to a single hammock. 3lb ax to a 18oz tomahawk, etc. Take a look at my video Bushcraft kit project update.

    We happened to only be out for a few days because this was a practice/test run for a real disaster, but this was what we would carry for months if needed, or better stated for an indefinite amount of time this was it.

  • @TJackSurvival
    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks man La Sportiva Trango's. Everyone in the military loves there Asolo's and Lowes but the toe caps are to small and hard for me to deal with doing super long hard heavy mileage in them so I modded some La Sportiva's from REI and destroyed them in AF and bought a new pair before we filmed this video. In fact I just wore them again today! I'm in the marked for a lighter weight summer pair that is also rugged. I am looking at the salewa hiking boots and need to get me a pair to try out.

  • @TJackSurvival
    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Most of the time there will be no "engaging of the enemy" which is my thought. However camouflage and all of the guns we had help in hunting primarily, and secondarily just work great in the woods. We just discussed "combating the enemy" because we knew we couldn't make a video like this on TH-cam without getting 21 questioned about it.

    @TJackSurvival 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    You know an interesting thing too is this. There is a fine line between hunting meat and defending yourself. So a lot of the things that I took with me to Afghanistan to include the lessons on survival I now use while hunting and camping in the mountains. Again to include the equipment I have so that I don't have to buy twice. There is no perfect bag for every situation. Just the best you can do for what you think is most realistically going to happen to you in a worst case scenario.

    One thing I did was label every medicine bottle with which type of medicine is in it and a brief example of what it's for. Mainly because you never know who may need to find a specific medicine for you. You could be unconscious or something and they wouldn't know what you have or how it works.
    Just a thought

    Please do not get me wrong i am not trying to be a smart ass or to be the best teacher and i respect a lot your work.
    But i only want to put some little info in your great video.
    It is about camouflage for hunting, the thing is that animals are colorblind, expect predators that can see a few colors or primates that can see the all range color visible spectrum (human like)
    For this , the best camo pattern is the one who works great in black and white.
    Try to keep this in mind in hunting camouflage stuff videos issues info.
    Again my apologies for the trouble if i cause any and
    keep up the great work , congratulations.
