With the recent Earth Quakes in California, I was asked to do a video on "Earth Quake Preparedness" or other Natural Disaster preparedness video. The more I thought about it, the more I realized we needed to touch on WHAT the BASICS were before we focused on certain situations.
Many requirements overlap and checking certain blocks off your preparations will help you prepare for a vast majority of the situations that unfortunately catch many people unprepared.
If your plan is to just wait until EMS or FEMA come to help you out, that's fine; just understand that you may be waiting a very long time.
So, in this video, I first want to focus on the basics...
The Basics
Water
Food
FIre
Air
Shelter
Medical
Movement
Communications
Navigation
Self Defense
Situational Requirements
Layer your gear. Start with your daily carry. Then, what you have in your vehicle and perhaps your office. Then, look at what you have at home. You'll quickly see that you may already have many of these subjects covered. However, you may also find that there are severe holes in your preparedness. These shortcomings are where you start.
I hope you enjoy the video. Remember that I read all your comments. I try to answer all questions.

Here is the lesson I remember most from military survival training: the will to survive is the most important aspect of survival.

I dont know if you know the TV show called Arrow but when Oliver Queen was on the island Lian Yu, he kept a photo of Laurel Lance and the idea and thought of seeing her again gave him purpose and will to stay alive. I know its just a TV show but the lesson is spot on!

I talk about this all the time. Prepping is like having an emergency fund. Prepare now, while it is easy, so that when times are hard, you do not have to do as many hard things. Make it easier on yourself. The best time to get started is now, there is never a better time. Prepare out of piece of mind, not fear.

I watch a lot of videos -- habit from being bored and retired. TR always puts up excellent videos and they are layered. I mean, someone just starting gets a lot of good info, and those who are farther along get good info. Excellent example of a true officer or NCO- they are teachers as well as leaders. I can see TR explaining missions, training etc and younger soldiers understanding. Excellent work.

"When the chips are turned against you." That is one of the best mixed metaphors I have ever heard. My wife and I have a little game we play sometimes on long trips of thinking of mixed metaphors. One I made up is "Out of the mouths of babes, mighty oak trees grow." But the one about the chips is great. That one mixes about 3 metaphors, maybe more. "When the chips are down", "When the cards are stacked against you", and "When everyone turns against you". Brilliant. ;-)

If you leave your house in the severe cold without warm clothes, a lighter and a candle, some snacks and water in your car you’re making a potentially fatal mistake. Lots of people just think because we live in a populous country that someone else will be there to help you out. In an emergency, however, most people that would be available to help you are in the same boat you’re in. Many people I hear about dying from exposure are from out of town.

A trick I use for my maps other than my lamination machine is spraying them with PLASTI DIP Clearcoat aerosol. It's waterproof, you can write on it with a marker and it's flexible for folding a large map.

@sierratango1222 5 лет назад

To answer your question, yes I can survive. First, I never wear "tacticool" clothing in public, no one knows I carry a pistol or even a knife, I stay out of the spot light. I have extensive medical knowledge due to my occupation. I know how to navigate with a compass and a map, thanks to Uncle Sam. I've spend time in different climates, i.e. tropical, dessert, tundra, wood, etc. My car had the neccessary items for survival, food, water, seasonal clothing, and a bag that's stocked with my survival gears. I am physically fit. Always love the channel and being able to learn from Karl. Watching this video really puts a period on my survival mindset.

I attempt to travel with my EDC (through TSA) and have to use a checked bag to do so. I have initiated the habit of pre-positioning equipment with my relatives (with a small bag that doesn't interfere with their space) if permissible. I would like to just use carry on but if I am committed to having basic EDC (pocket knife, fire kit etc) I have to check it. With airlines now consistently charging $25 and up for a single check bags (are exceptions but I don't fly that often) its getting a little costly for a weekend get away etc. So all that to say I would also enjoy a similar video. regards to all.

@T_bone 5 лет назад

Wouldn't you just look at the items not allowed by the TSA? I mean if there is some item(s) that are somehow purposeful yet skirt the TSA's rules that would noteworthy. Otherwise, clothing and some medical supplies, flint or other firestarter items that are not banned by the TSA.

Hey Karl, I've recently relocated to a remote wilderness location in "northern" Ontario, Canada, I live just outside of Algonquin Park and my everyday life has turned into a never ending lesson in survival so I can't tell you how much I appreciate and value videos like these, your wisdom has saved my ass more than a few times to say the least. There's little to no cell reception where I live so I'm not able to keep as up to date on your videos as I used to but I make a point to check in on your latest updates whenever I make the hour long drive into town for supplies so please keep em coming. As a Canadian I am unfortunately unable to carry a sidearm so may I kindly request another video similar to your lesson on readily available improvised defense systems, and also possibly some longer term survival tactics for those of us whom are more immersed in the lifestyle? Thanks for reading and have a great day.

@toddk1377 5 лет назад

Good points Karl. Making a fire looks easy on YT, but actually doing it without the knowledge or practice, it can be extremely difficult. I practice woodscraft stuff all the time. I always go by the 5 C's, cordage, combustion, cover, cutting, container. Those are the hardest item to replicate out in the bush and can save hours of work having them. To me, one of the most important tools that will be heavily used based on my location and environment, is my knife, or in other cases a small axe like a tomahawk. The more multifunctional a tool can be, the better.

@Shinobi1Kenobi 5 лет назад

Truth. We lost bushcraft as a basic life skill set for men between the WW2 generation and Boomers. The fundamentals of surviving without electricity, climate controls, and grocery stores is now esoteric. You are right about the 5 C's as the absolute essentials. And I've seen more people discard 80% of their gear than I have heard people say, "Dammit! I wish I had brought ______."

@Shinobi1Kenobi 5 лет назад

@@toddk1377 The things that make fire impossible to achieve for mere mortals are: wet fuel, high humidity/ground moisture, rain, wind, lack of liquid fuel "starter fluid." Well, and a very basic lack of knowledge. I remember the first time I took my wife camping. She was amazed at how much time we spent foraging firewood, dividing it into kindling and fuel piles, and how much tinder I collected. I could have taken all of that stuff along, as we were car camping out of my truck in a state park. But I wanted to demonstrate to her how to collect firewood with what you could pick up of the ground and maybe cutting a low, dead limbs; and how to use a Bic lighter and homemade "fire starter knots" to build a fire in a winter rain. She was a city girl who immigrated to the US from Germany and a card carrying member of Amnesty International and Greenpeace. Our first date had been to a shooting range. I was trying to run her off. LOL

Use what you buy. Try it. Learn how it functions, well, not well, etc. So many people i come across with flint and steel have never used it, and don't even know they need to scrape the protective coating off before it will spark. Buy things for your kit, then go out and try it. Make sure you know how to use it and, make sure it works. If you have time, use it often, and make sure it holds up, then replace it with a new copy, in your kit. Go camping and practice. Even if its in your back yard. Great video, as always TR.

Cody Lundin; When All Hell Breaks Loose, is where I encountered this idea and I think it is a very good way to conceptualize and prioritize survival gear and actions. Good vids.

@1001CP 5 лет назад

Great job on the vid! As you said, it always depends on where you are, what is going on as far as weather/situation/people involved and a host of other possibilities. After growing up in Alaska back in the 70s if you where not prepared you could easily die and subsistence living was a way of LIFE! My wife from down here in the states always thought it was overdone to equip ours and then our kids cars with basics like a water/blanket/med kit/fire starter (like a good set of road flares that burn even under water), etc. like we did when I was with the Troopers up there but now moved down to the states. She does NOT any more with so many storms and unrest. Then you can have a more flexible comprehensive kit at home for say simple power outages, then move toward more serious event prepared kits. One thing people forget is that you have to be able to GET to your kit. If your house floods, blows away or overtaken by whatever then all that good stocking up means nothing. Keep it in a relatively secure place where you can grab it easily on the way out or when sheltering in. AND DONT FORGET TO ALWAYS HAVE A FAMILY RALLY POINT!!!! After a long career in mil/police/medical I love teaching survival in austere and primitive environments to people in my old age. Thank you for putting out a very good vid on the mindset of being prepared and some great examples. Keep putting out the really good info you do and be safe my friend!

@charleshoward448 5 лет назад

Thanks for the great video! It seems really simple, but I'm finding the concept of Situational Gear really useful in thinking about all of this. I'm an Eagle Scout, and I try to live by the Boy Scout Motto: Be Prepared. But the Motto doesn't tell you exactly what to be prepared for; that's up to you to figure out. It seems easy for people to get tunnel vision prepping for violent scenarios (complete collapse of infrastructure, foreign invasion, civil war, (and zombies I guess) because those are legitimately terrifying scenarios. But if you focus too much on those situations, you might not be well prepared for other things that are much more common (flooding, fires, earthquakes, tornadoes, collapse of local economy based on a particular industry, Winter...) Overall, it's a lot prepare for. But if you apply the concept of Situational Gear, it all becomes much simpler. You can focus on letting your normal EDC, Office Bag, Vehicle and Home gear cover the survival basics that will apply in all conditions. Then get together additional gear to augment that, based on the particular situations you're facing. If Winter is coming, put a sleeping bag in your vehicle. If it's forest fire season, put a shovel and a couple extra fire extinguishers in there. If things are going terribly wrong with US-China relations, put your plate carrier next to your Office Bag, and load up the Armageddon gear. At any rate, I'm finding the concept very useful. Thanks again!

INFANTRY BASIC. As if you spent time in Airborne, Ranger, Light Infantry, or even in Mechanized Infantry spending a month in the field during field exercises will make you learn faster how to survive from the stuff you will ever learn from the Boy Scouts or Survival Camps you have paid for. An Infantry Soldier will learn a lifetime of survival in 2 years of average in the various combat zones of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam as part of his Infantry platoon and squad living day and out. This was reinforced to me as a Peace Time Soldier I the mid 80s up until 9/11/01 and beyond. The basic Army Infantryman and Marine are trained in the field from the old standard and to the new no matter what. They are trained to use their minds in basic survival in basic field craft. I use my old Infantry skills on road trips off the grid when I travel for fun and not on Army Infantry exercises or in combat. This refreshes my skill sets and be prepared.

Out in Wyoming/Utah/Motanta ect cell phones dont work everywhere....

Only 47? You can't surround your shelter with booby traps with only 47! I recommend at least 200! Jokes aside, I find it funny that those kinds of people have 47 combat knives and nothing that can fillet a fish or skin a deer. If I could only bring a single item into a woodland, I'd pick a hatchet. The hatchet is so much better than a "combat knife" or "survival knife", because you can make wooden hoes, shelters, spears, etc. with it. Imo, it's the single most important piece of gear. Let nature be your survival pack.

Well put. So many get it wrong in the beginning. Some don’t prepare at all and think the Preppers are just Zombie apocalypse crazy, when the reality is there are storms, tornados, hurricanes and civil unrest and if your not prepared you depending on those that did or the government. Don’t get me wrong, as the Gov tries, however at their best it may take days to weeks to get supplies in. So that is why people should prep.

I've been through many real time survival situations for as long as I can remember. Not all by choice. Carl is the voice of reason and experience I can agree with. Well done Sir. Training and exercising skills is going to far outweigh any gear. Being open to what gear, supplies, training and personal skill level (not kidding yourself and being honest about your abilities) coupled with realizing the actual situation is going to increase chances for a positive outcome. I've got cheapo hand out gear in bags (sacrificial gear for hand outs) and military gear for the pro's that I might be assisting. There is a difference and Carl nails it. Carl, could you do a video about this? Hand out gear in a crises for the folks that are average joe you come across in a survival situation vs. experienced pro's that would know what to do and how to equip both. Thank you Sir for your service and consideration on this.

@TacticalRifleman 5 лет назад

John, excellent topic and I will add it to the video idea list. However, there are a few survival/preparedness topics that I feel are slightly more important to touch on first. Thanks for watching, TR

Great information to master and control any and every situation. Most fatal car accidents happen with in 5 miles of your residence in the untied states. Hopefully if shit hits the fan I am home or not to far away because I have great gear and always have gear in my truck and another bag in my car. Like you said knowledge is the power but a prepared mindset will be the deciding factor. Great channel thank you for your hard work. Shoot straight shoot first.

I go camping and it helps to get an idea of what it is like to live without the comforts provided in a home. In addition, the camp equipment is great to have at home should I need to use the stove and lantern should a natural disaster occurs or need to bug out. Everyone should take the opportunity to go camping.

@andydragtstra4707 2 года назад

If i am honest, i am quite skinny and wouldn't be much of a fighter. I do have an engineering degree and have been fixing things for a long time. I would not survive on my own but am definitely valuable to a group because I have golden fingers. Give me a couple of sticks and I'll make fire, give me a few basic tools and I bet I can make a shelter, give me some advanced tools and some help and I'll build you a fortress. However, I'll need fighters to survive, otherwise people will just pillage my stuff. The true strength of humans comes from their social skills. Edit: Letherman surge all the way! It is my favourite. The Signal would also be a good pick for a survivalist. I would also take a small axe or a strong knife for splitting wood. Foldable blades break on you when you hammer down on them.

Just a FYI on buying maps from truck stops and travel maps from gas stations. These maps may or may not be of help. Especially if you travel off road. Truck stop maps are specifically made for commercial truckers. They only show major highways and interstate expressways. Distances between select points are shown to calculate route mileage. These points are the small red triangles along roads on the trucker road maps. Typical road maps don't have distance markers. They only show a graphic presentation of improved road surfaces. Neither of these maps show contour lines to show terrain and slopes. The best source for maps with contour lines is the US Geological Department of the Federal government. Some adventure sporting goods stores sell these maps. If anybody wants a GI lensatic compass that has been used by American GI's for decades. They are manufactured by Cammenga. Reference: NSN:6605-01-296-6971, and, Mil-Spec MIL-PRF-2043-6N. So you won't get fooled and buy that counterfeit junk. Also you can get an artillery transit from the Brunton Company. An extremely precise compass. They also make a bracket to hold the transit on a tripod. There is a compass platter to get stable platform to add stability when traveling. Both compasses have a 360° scale and a 6400 Mil-radian scale. Both have tritium paint for night use. These are your tough as nails compasses. Cammega compasses are about $70 each. Brunton transits are about $400 to. $800 depending on model.
