Seriously, why isn’t this taught in school? Like we do dumb emergency drills but never talk about what happens after the emergency like it’ll be sunshine and rainbows afterwards.
Agreed. I just joined the PAC of my kids school and the very first meeting I asked what their earthquake plan is because we are in a subduction zone. Everyone, including the other parents, looked at me like I'd talked about aliens. Their plan is everyone meets in the field behind the school. And then?
Well, they haven't thought about the "and then" because none of them believe it will ever happen.
I tell my kids it's not just so they know how to take care of themselves but so they can help others if needed. The more people there are who KNOW what to do, the less everyone panics and the better the chance we won't then BE in a dangerous situation based in chaos... and people can work together to fix the ACTUAL problems. Human aggression almost always comes from fear and I don't want my kids stuck in that if I'm unable to get to them quickly.
They don’t even tell us how to pay our taxes, or invest money. We need to teach each other to make up for the holes that schooling leaves.
@@LaughingInTiny YES. The “and then” is the most important part!
It is illegal in socialist countries to prepare. The notion that the government cannot take care of you in every situation is counter to the collective, and considered treasonous.
@@jacobcastro1885Really? Do you have an example?
I always plan ahead for anything, any situation, people think I am overdoing it, but whatever I do, wherever I go, I come across some situation where those emergency items have saved the day!
I take the batteries out of my headlamps and flashlights and store them in the same pouch in small plastic bags, along with backups.
Nice crucifix on the wall there. I see you have the most important items when bugging out. Faith and Hope!
As a back packer I always recommend spending more for lighter higher quality items, less weight is great!
Gold star for one main reason. Start out with water, don’t start out looking for water. There are too many GHB/BOB videos that have three ways to get water but start with none on hand.
Hint 4 gross filter, ie; pond scum source; paper H2O coffee filters, then boil or whatever. U still need a container to get H2O out of source. Large lastic bag will do. Don't use drinking cup for that until properly treated.
My get home bag:
. Knife
. Flashlight
. Light sticks
. Batteries
. Bear spray
. 550 paracord (100 feet)
. Pry bar
. Trauma pak
. Bic lighters
. Hand sanitizer
. Hand warmers
. Bandannas
. Masks
. Hat
. Water bottles
. 5 hour energy
. Food (protein bars)
. Advil
. Emergency ponchos
. Spare keys
I love this video Doug. I have a wilderness camp 2 hours from where I live. Often times I’m too tired (& lazy) to pack to go there. I want to have a bug out bag always ready so that if I have a window of time to get away I can go immediately without the added task of packing. Thanks for the inspiration 👍🏽🙏🏽
Absolutely Father! God bless!
Great to hear from you Fr. Mark. I really appreciate and like your videos. You're knocking out some great material!
"Bug out bag always ready...window of time" So like, in the event of a Matthew 24: 15-18 situation?
I would do this...unfortunately I live in a place where car break-ins are so regular. I can't think of how many windows I've replaced in the last 10 years and how much stuff, clothes/jackets and other car items like small vacuums I've gotten stolen.
@@DB-xo6xh Keep it by the door you will be going through when you leave.
Tampons are great tinder. They are cotton, small, and useful for plugging wounds or for women if needed. Just fluff up a clean one.
I have sunscreen in mine and the food is all food I’ve tested and eaten. I read it’s good to make it familiar. And to include stomach meds.
I always have black electrical tape with me. It is in the old military books used as a water proof, secure band aid, and removes easily without damaging the skin . My skin rips easily and this tape has been a miracle for me .It also prevent s scaring. I love your bag contents but think you should add electrical tape, because duct tape will rip your skin off if you use it as a band aid.
Black tape is my go to bandage. My fingers crack easily in cold weather. My wife calls it black tape season
Dang dude you have really sensitive skin when I put duct tape on my skin and rip it off all that comes off is hair lol if I had skin like that I would get cuts all the time from the work I do.
Also for deep cuts if I need stitches I use super glue instead of wasting time and money going to the Dr I just pinch my skin together and and glue it. It works almost just as good.
@@alexromero2632 I had good skin until 2010 when I got an air borne disease while walking in the forest. No cure, no knowledge, just treat each problem as it occurs. I had 5 yrs of hell, lungs , skin you name it. I have been much improved over the last years and life is good. I have no fear of this China virus as I already have a virus in me and it would probably kill off any other virus. I also have to take Ivermectin monthly. Faith over Fear. Nice hearing from you.
I have 4lighters with duct tape, roll of electrical tape, a glue stick and an unopened super glue.
Very well presented. Great job. Been going in woods for 31 years. I still love it. I also teach self defense. I m ex military and still do military hikes. Im 62 years old and I love my life and my country.
thank you for your service
@@noahphillips7082 thanks
@@kirneyc.thibodeaux649 yes anytime, i have unlimited respect for our military/first responders

love it! water water water! experienced backpacker here. I do a lot of desert backpacking and I can not stress it enough. If you think you're going to have to bug out on foot for more than a few days no matter where you are geographically GET A GOOD BACKPACK WITH A 4-LITRE WATER BLADER! Having the right load-bearing equipment can greatly increase your carrying capacity. And with little effort, you can carry enough water to keep you hydrated and comfortable.
Thanks for sharing!
I've been prepping for years. For no water..no food..no heat. Kids think I'm looney. But this will come one day. Little House...thanks for your talent.
First, LOVE how you addressed items by category vs a "bag dump-o-stuff"... excellent! I can't stand bag dumps.
US Army SERE 4 priorities:
1. Water: collect/store it; filter/purify
2. Fire: light; heat
3. Food:
4. Shelter: what I get into; What I put on
Then...
5. Medical: 1st Aid & Hygiene
And then "Shoot, Move, Communicate"...
6. Protection: Self- Defense; tools
7. Navigation:
8. Communication: comms; signal; power
9. Then misc: barter items (cash, silver/gold coins) deck of cards, Bible
1. Serrations are not made to baton through wood
2. You also want a sharpener for your knives
3. It's a good idea to have a folding saw in your pack
4. An axe is something that you need to consider as to whether or not you really need it. A very good alternative to a axe is the Gerber versafix. Doesn't weigh as much as an axe, can take all kinds of abuse, and is made for batoning.
5. Having a whistle is also something worth having
a metal mirror...signalling, know SOS in morse code
Bread bags to keep feet dry would be handy to add. I added a $20 solar charging light with cables. I tested the solar charger for a week or two to find weak points and verify function.
I melted wax and poured it over lint in an egg carton, we cut out the wax lint stuff out of the egg carton to light it and it works like a charm
i buy a box of 18 duraflame starters for $2.99 ... intense heat...
@@direwolf6234 oh I've tried those👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
As an older adult, age 71...I have been building a small backpack go bag, and a larger go bag in an old wheeled luggage.
But, since I am female, I could live out of my purse for weeks! Like most ladies.
Since I am a lifelong woods trapper, I feel my best prep is the knowledge that I have in my head.
Keep calm and carry on.
Very cool.your doing this. Most Catholics don't really think about the physical battle that may come to their door.
I've never thought about flipping the battery in electronic devices which are in your bag. Its happened to me before where I've gone in my bag and noticed a flashlight has been turned on accidently. Great tip
I always carry Vaseline. It is an odd item that is insanely useful.
Can help relieve a bit of stress during the apocalypse....
Definitely! You can prepare like this all day long, but if you have chapped lips, a cut/burn somewhere, need lubricant for something, and you don’t have vaseline/aquaphor handy, you’re not gonna be a happy person.
Helps with protecting feet from blisters
@@mandydurham3320 Not just that. It makes good fuel for a fire too.
lol grey man thinking: I would love a "Hello Kitty pink Camo" Bug out bag. Nobody would take me seriously with that. 😂🤣
People would look at that and ask themselves, " Do you think she has anything useful?" Answer: No!
Lol😂great idea
WombInWood It’s possible. Unfortunately depending on what they are looking for, I might look like that simply because I’m alone and female.
I am not unaware of how ugly the world is.
When the time comes that we have to worry about someone taking our stuff, it won’t matter what your pack looks like.
Giiving all my kids bags - a good gift for the car! Thanks. Great advice!
I carry two sets of batteries for my flashlight and they are rechargeable along with a compact foldable solar panel. This keeps you going and reduces weight. Ounces leads to pounds, pounds leads to pain so I do things in a manner that reduces weight. Food and water are the number one commodity in my bag as I can dump shelter items for more food and water space and use various places/structures for shelter. What is really damning though is we can be the smartest people and pack the best bug out bag with the best products but what good is it really when so many people aren't in shape to make that move.
My thought on it is, once you take off from your location, there's no turning back so you better be ready and committed to making that move. A lot of people make these bags, and make site and route plans but just aren't physically fit enough to do it. They just make these bags, throw them in a corner to collect dust and drag them out every 6 months to a year to rotate and update their food, water and batteries. My rule of thumb is being able to make 10 miles a day minimum but also retain the stamina and ability to fight if the need arises. I work in a job that keeps me physically active but I do train with my packs as well along with rotating items monthly and swapping out seasonal wear.
Also keep some jolly ranchers or something similar in a tin to help boost your moral because if things get bad, once the adrenaline wears off and a state of situational depression starts to set in, you will need something to help raise your mood even if its the smallest thing like a single piece of candy a day. Not keeping your mental health in check, you could start to deteriorate very quickly and start loosing hope. I have cache tunes along my routes to a couple different locations for bugging out but only if I have to. These are resupply, homemade PVC tubes that are water tight and buried in strategic locations with extra food, water and overnthe counter medications. Even thinking about doing a couple of water tight 55 gallon plastic drums buried half way through the routes with a tent, pillow, bedding and a more appropriate meal choice besides freeze dried meals or protein bars and a little bit of ammo all vacuum sealed. This can also help reduce the amount of items you have in your go bag but only practical in a situation where you likely won't run into other people/situations that will make you have to deviate off your course.
Keep your IFAK, water filter, knife and firearm with some spare ammo on your person. NOT YOUR PACK! If you become separated from your pack for any reason and can't get back to it and you don't have those items, you're screwed. This is why I run a plate carrier to carry these items but also to help prevent from being stabbed or shot in a vital location even though they weight a lot.
Great video. My only suggestion would be to add a sillcock tool for water in a urban area. You can access a water faucet to get water.
I have one in every bag I have. I have multiple get home bags. Each designed for different distances that I may travel away from home.
@@funnyfarmdad9997 Your very smart! SillCock tool is cheap and very lite in weight. I will be adding a few more to my extra kits.
Sir thanks for sharing. I am from the Philippines. I think your video will help so many Catholics who are also preparing for the Tribulation period.
I have a whole camping set up in my vehicle at all times.
Goal to be able to camp from the FJ for at least 7 full days. Maybe 14.
@@KMF3 you're quite lucky to have a FJ
Thank you Doug! I have my bug out bag, filled up and ready. Pray we don't need it...but who knows these days.
Prepare for the worst. Pray for the best.
#6 Weapon. I Keep a good pair of hiking boots in my vehicle too. Keep a bottle of your medications in your BOB. Great tips!👍
Tarps are definitely a must. Besides the shelter application, you can drag a injured person, or anything heavy.
Do more of these prepping videos and show how to use some of these items. Great content.
This has some good real life suggestions
Thanks for this well thought out video! From a Navy guy! BRAVO ZULU!!!
This is probably the best video for fairly new preppers. Very easy to understand and to the point. Thank you sir.
As soon as I saw a crucifix in the background, I subscribed right away. 😅 Viva Cristo Rey!
Most people know realize how important gloves are
Thank you Doug❤️🙏✝️✝️✝️
MRE's are my go to for food. Thank you for the tips.
Thanks Doug! Excellent!
Lint works great as tinder, but the lint left from wool does not. I only mention this because I once washed a new wool blanket that I had just bought and there was a huge amount of lint left from it. I thought I had hit a tinder gold mine, that is until I tried to get it to catch a spark. Glad I figured that out at home before I threw it into my pack. That's one of the advantages in some situations to wool. It is flame retardant.
So cool. I'm actually preparing my survival bag and I looked up bug out bag contents and found your video. Just subscribed! On to part 2!
I like goodies hair ties for pony tail they don't stretch out always stay tight and very cheap and also don't break
I really liked this video, a lot of very good info & ideas. One thing that made you stand apart from some of the others I've watched is the willingness to help others in need. I've watched others that are only worried about looking out for #1, even going so far as saying that if someone is not prepared, that's their problem.
Yes, it's important to look out for ourselves, but I think we should always stay open to helping others as well.
Good job and great kit
Thanks Douglas
Very useful tips, thank you Sir!
Thank u 4 this, I needed the help making my boog bag. Good luck, and stay safe.
Very informative and educational. Thank you very much
starting our bags this weekend we have 4 kids so we need to bring a lot but we need to be prepared locked and loaded!
I agree with this man on quality stuff you really get what you pay for and that's with everything in life
Thank you Doug, very good info, short and sweet. I just subscribed, and am looking forward to what other videos to come.👍
Excellent video! Thanks 😊
Thank you! Absolutely.
gaiters are very lightweight, scrunch up to nearly nothing, and could cover the face. Maybe many pockets sewn onto the inside of a jacket, even the back, could hold things such as gaiters, bandanas, space blankets, etc. leaving a little more room in the bag for other things.
Great call on flipping the batteries.. Never thought about that
Best advice I was EVER given when I was in cadets by a Royal Marine Commando was "When youre filling your bag, stuff all fabrics in without folding, folding leaves an area of air between each piece of clothing which wastes room, stuff your clothing and stuff in, it fills up all the air gaps and you fit more in"
I thought it's best to roll fabrics instead of fold or stuffing them?!
Thank you for this great video 👍 This ones really helped me by preparing my bug out bag !
Thanks for sharing
Great! Thanks!!!
Great video
Thank you...this is the most comprehensive bugout bag preparation channel on youtube.
Glad it was helpful!
Regarding the filter (mini Sawyer or other brand) : keep in mind if the filter is frozen then the filter is broken and YOU HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW IT. By definition a BOB will probably stay in the car all year long. Chances are it will froze one day or an other.
So while filter at wonderful for backpacking when you can keep it close to your body in cold weather it is a VERY bad tool for BOB. Prefer using purification tablets or boiled water. A lot safer.
Doesn’t water have to be in the filter in order for it to freeze & break?
As soon as you have it used once and unless you tried it very well, if there is one drop of water in the filter and it freeze the filter is doomed. So keep it from freezing unless it is a 100% dry filter (or a new one)
@@robertalonzo1569
Very good snap shot !
Thank you for this video, people need to see this
Absolutely.
Thank you.
Merci pour ces conseils précieux 👍
This is an awesome video! Loads of great info!
Thanks for the support! God bless!
Side note about the needing calories, of you're a bit rounder in the tum tum area, you'll have an extra calorie reserve should you run out of food. And depending on the size of your floof pouch, you could go longer with fewer calories than someone who is a bean pole.
that is true but should such a person need to pack out on foot, they won't make it very far from being out of shape as they will get tired very quickly. Some may even induce a medical emergency on themselves from the excessive movement along with the adrenaline dump in the event of a SHTF scenario.
All good info Doug!
Thanks 👍
Great video keeps it goo
Crucial info, thank you for sharing!!
Very welcome!
THIS VIDEO IS ONE OF THE BEST IN TH-cam ABOUT BUGOUT. ( I SAW HUNDREDS)
Love the video I will say though that instead of using inner tubes as sort of better rubber bands you can get ranger bands most of the time for pretty cheap
How about hair ties they are more heavy duty and last forever.
If things get that bad....not sure i want to survive, or go to that extent. I am 72, how would i carry that and walk somewhere in all the chaos. And IF you do this, better plan where you will go! Living in the city...where would I go?? I will just go to Church or shelter at home!
Look for some alternatives now. There might be people like me in the rural areas that would take you in.
Agreed. Me too! I have dogs, cats and 18 chickens 🙄 65 with disabilities that would prevent me from "running" to another place to "hide" #notafraidtodie ... easy to say at the moment. I do have a small tent to use indoors for warmth and have stocked up on canned goods and a small camping stove on case we lose electricity. I think I'll hunker down. 😊 God is with us. Prepare as best we can without fear. ❤
@@lindakelly49 Worst case scenario you can always eat your chickens
Hey Maggie… At least keep extra food and supplies in your home just in case you can’t leave for a few weeks.
Wow now I'm concerned about my neighbors. Ill watch out for them and protect them. I pray someone will do the same for you.
flipping the battery will make the normal batteries attempt to reverse the polarity of the flipped battery when the switch is turned on, that's the worst you can do since it will drain the batteries even faster and also make them leak
Very informative. Thank you so much for the video. The water suggestions are All very very good. Always have multiple ways of treating water and always start with some water! In all honesty though, if there is civil unrest, it won't matter what type of backpack you're carrying. People will want your things anyway. It's more probable that they will be less likely to attack someone who is carrying a tactical backpack with visible weapons on hand. They'll want the easy targets, the regular Joe Blows who are unprepared and have fewer means to fight back. It's safer for those who want to plunder, and any backpack can be a target, be it tactical or not. I'd rather look like I can defend myself, rather than look like an easy target and have to deal with multiple attacks.
Good video, I would suggest a pack of wet ones or baby wipes for cleaning your hands face or bottom after the bathroom. Also I carry a stainless steel water bottle for boiling water to cook with ect.
Thanks @jim's survival we have baby wipes on the table in the purple package. We are addressing those in part 2. Great ideas!
@@DougBarry sorry I didn't notice them...great video
Great stuff brother
Thanks for watching and God bless
Excellent. Thank you.
Just saying a small back up way for water filtration would be good, and electrolyte packs to add to it might be worth it.
I get you with adding the bandana and then you added the face mask thing too, but as a gal - a long large shawl, that have on hand all the time, well it does all that and much more, in warm and cold weather.
Hello there. Thank you so much for the very informative video. I have watched a lot of these trying to find one that shows how the items are packed inside of the bag. Everyone just displays them on a table or something. Please could you show how your items fit in the bag?
Inner-tubes….genius. New subscriber here. Thanks for a great tutorial!👍🏻
Cheers mate love the work from Australia
I have a tent, sleep system and stocked bag in the car always.
Replace the second pair of gloves with a heavy pair of socks they can be used as mittens
dont put batteries in backwards, yes, you might save your batteries, but you could ruin your device, use a small piece of paper to prevent batteries making a connection or take them out and store so they dont touch
other than that, great video, thanks
Pretty decent list. I find a big difference between a bug out bag and a get home but thats personal preference. Id love to see a 10 mile test run with a set up like that. Ive got a challenge video on my channel that covers what i learned from my trail run
Agreed. These are things we go over in separate videos. Thanks for commenting.
I was just gonna say
I saved a baggie full of dryer lint it lights very well
Also liquid iv and pedialyte to keep with hydration
Everyone is all about the protein with E-food. Sugar - from sweets, dried fruit or powdered is what super endurance athletes go for days on.
Also chia seeds are surprisingly filling, have epic calories per ounce, a good shelf life & lots of energy.
The young doc guy from Alone season 9 has good commentary on this on his YT channel.
Thanks Doug I will do this and share the information.
Absolutely! Thanks for sharing and watching!
HAHA This is funny because I called an emergency practice hike simulating a car breakdown walk home type hike we went just over 2 miles and it was extremely windy from the north and light rain that turned into snow. I had the family pack their own bags and I packed extra supplies knowing the youngest kid forgot a toque and scarf and man as soon as he was outside the car he complained about the cold wind so I asked him where is his I told him to pack it and make sure its there he learned quick lol.
Excellent! I just found your site...and l just subscribed
Awesome, thank you!
for my tarp i have 3 to 5 tent stakes
i dont recommend jerky high sodium dehydrate you
i dont carry a pry bar or hatchet folding saw does the job
carry a canteen cup for cooking needs
i carry fishing line few hooks cut a stick 6 - 8 ft long this way you can add a few days in the outdoors if needed
i have switched over to rechargeable head lamp flash light radio use a solar power pack
not many videos talk about learning outdoor skills learn how to use all the gear before needing them i go out to the woods 5 - 6 times a year spend 1 - 2 nights each even take family and teach them
i have 40+ years in the outdoors
The single biggest mistake a survivalist can make regarding their portable equipment (Bug out bag.....or whatever you chose to call it)....is not testing it under the conditions it is intended to be used in. I have reviewed dozens of videos on this topic and very few even remotely mention testing out the items in the field. And not only that, but to do so on a regular basis, under a variety of conditions. It could be deadly to find out your pack and supplies are unable to sustain you when things really do go South. Know and use your gear. Break it in. Test it. And become expert at using each and every item you intend on lugging around. Finally, make sure you can actually carry the weight you have packed, for the distances you need to travel. If you can only walk five miles with 30lbs of gear, don't pack 50lbs.
The biggest mistake most preppers make is neglecting their physical fitness. It’s almost like the act of prepping has taken on a hobbyist feel. The collection of gear, putting bags together and daydreaming of that scenario from the movie Tremors where a giant worm breaks through the wall of your armory and you mag dump every weapon you have into it with your common law wife Reba McIntyre.
If you can’t survive hiking & camping no point having a bug out bag unless you have a Porter to carry it and you.
I actually use that same blue/grey bag 😂 I have a couple of them
Thanks for your post. Do you have a page in Amazon with the items listed in this post? Amen.
I keep some comfy shoes in the car. I recommend sticking plush socks in there too in case you don't happen to be wearing socks on that day.
In regards to clean water, would you recommend a life straw? I think they also have a filter for use with a hanging bag of water.
eta: 5 seconds after my comment, you talked about one of those filters. :) word.
