Tin Can Survival Kit. Last Ditch Coffee Can Survival Kit 

I too watched Ranger Survival video and was remembering coffee can survival tins were a thing in the 70s.. man, the contents have sure changed. buck knife, bag of rice, salt tabs, matches, razor blade, tin foil... lol memories

Absolutely awesome kit. Very well thought out, and I think this can give a lot of people some really good ideas on how to prepare for themselves. If I may be so bold, I have just a few minor suggestions: 1) Pack the signal mirror and whistle at the top, and perhaps loop both on a length of cord sized right to be worn around your neck because if you do become lost or stranded, the first 72 hours from when you get reported missing is when the search and rescue teams will be the most active and are the most crucial for your survival. It's better to be rescued than rough it. 2) In your fishing kit, pre tie a few inches of leader to at least one fishing hook since health and weather conditions may make threading the eye of a hook nearly impossible. Same would apply to a sewing needle if one is included, just a few feet of thread on a pre threaded needle can really help. 3) The only addition to the kit I would add is a few paper coffee filters to help strain out any muck from the water you intend to sterilize or boil. Really like the mention of the importance of redunancy. I think many, as well as myself, have taken away some really good ideas and insights from you. Thanks and keep up the good work.

An orange bandana would help very useful. Plus a garbage bag. Two items i would want. Good kit man. Thanks for sharing. Now a sub👍

I normally scoff at these coffee can kits. This has got to be one of the best, most thought out kits I've seen in a long time. Outstanding!

Excellent! Earlier tonight, before finding this video, I found 2 empty sweet wafer cans similar to yours., which I brought inside to hold my emergency kit components. I plan on making my own kit after studying the Ranger version & yours several times. A military P-38 can opener would provide back-up to the one on the Swiss Army Knife. Thanks for sharing.

Wow I thought I was good at packing. 👍

Interesting and informative.

Very well done! You covered all the survivability priorities although a little weak on the food. I would add a Cliff bar or Millennium bar. Really nice kit brother! Thanks!

Came back to watch a second time. Definitely a well thought out kit!

This is quite interesting and informative. Thank you for sharing.

Excellent. I agree with your item selection on the whole. Recommend a wide mouth, single-walled water bottle as the container (thrift stores have tons of these!), and perhaps a very small water filter as you’ll probably be sweating a lot in the emergency situ! Thanks for sharing your concept with us!

Really surprising how all that fits into that container..Thanks for sharing

I love survival stuff. You never know when you’ll need something

this came up in my recommended feed..already watched.it...had a thought. would it be a good idea to maybe use the paracord to make a carrying strap with? like a basket type to throw over your shoulder? and a bandana would be mint...

GREAT! kit... maybe a bandanna is what i'd add and call it good. 👌

I just lived and "SURVIVED" yet another hurricane here on the Gulf Coast of Texas. Im sitting here thinking of all the things we needed to make it through the storm and then the days later of not having any electricity and therefore no running water. Funny thing.....most of what you have in that can....I never needed. The bug spray, yeah. Oh yes! Could you perhaps explain a situation where the elements of your survival system would be used?

Giving me some ideas. Something like this could be a good idea for bringing on a backpacking trip.

Hi from the UK. Really enjoyed the video. I watch all the videos I can regarding survival kits and while all have merit, I often think about what I would add or leave out. This is probably the first that I would make NO changes to at all. I am a great believer in the 'Two is one' philosophy as well.

A good idea is to add more tiny fire starters, I use coton mixed with candle wax, it works amazing, also another idea is to have some cotton bandana to create char material with the can

Wow lot of stock nice👍

Good mix of items and a lot of redundancy.

FYI, Put some aluminum tap in your kit and make a foil pot to cook in with tap on bottom, check out aluminum foil pots and cups. Lots of room for straw containers.

Well done and creative!

your box is not good for boiling water because sh es not welded !it is crimped on the side and the bottom the water will relax the steel while heating and the container will leak

Nice video. If I am going to carry a kit that big, I would go with a Nalgene bottle and slip a stainless steel cup and cup stove on the end. It can then fit in a pouch and be carried on your belt. Good Luck, Rick

Great idea

Looks pretty solid!👍

Cracking kit, definitely covered all the bases and good advice 👍 have a good weekend, keep safe. Paul

Amazing ideas...

Nice job, very good video. You gave me a few new ideas for my kits.

Very well done

Pretty good kit. Nice job!👌

Well thought out kit the only thing I would do. Is add a few glucose tabs for a little pick me up and a couple trick birthday candles to help with fire. Also I’d go right below the rolled down top edge of the can and make a small hole on each side for a bail. The lid will cover them and it’s easier at home. Just my 2 cents but what do I know I’m just a dumbass behind a keyboard.

So cool

Good job I would like I would like to see more regional survival kits made to not all environments are the same all through the country

Excellent job, great kit, well thought out.

Great Kit. I would add an extra battery for flashlight and put in a wide mouth water bottle instead. Not as much room perhaps but better for storing water and boiling as somebody mentioned. Might also want to consider Pepto Bismol for first aid. Not fun if you are stranded with stomach ailments. Otherwise awesome job. Will look at your other videos.

Not a bad kit 👍🏻

Nice kit list. Surprising how much you can pack in such a can.

Nice kit and video! How about adding a Frontier filter straw to augment your water bag and purification tablets? I think it might fit with a little reorganization. Thanks for the video...really enjoyed it!

I've been wanting to go backpacking this would be a good fit for it

nice kit...would you have room for a garbage bag? extra shelter couldn't hurt...and maybe some bank line...

Very nice man……A plus all the way

Great kit! You have room for a spoon and fishing kit.

A bandana and your complete great kit

Nice kit! Step 2: solo overnight in the woods...

I would swap out the picture fram wire for some mechanics wire, picture frame wire are hell to try and make a snare out of. If you have a harbor freight anywhere near you the have small rolls of mechanics wire for .99 cents.

Only slight problem I can see, I put picture wire in my kit too. Unless you have a leatherman or similar it’s nearly impossible to cut down and bending it till it fatigues doesn’t really work

I've not seen that specific ferro rod. Would that fit in an Altoids tin?

Just how many survial kits do you have around your place at any given time?

No disrespect to the ranger channel I think your tin is much more usable…multiple use items 👍🇬🇧

I was Truly Impressed, Just Add More Bullion

Well thought out you got a new subscriber bro northeast Boys gotta stick together

Never underestimate the usefulness of electrical tape.

to me you fail the food par! beef jerky or a cliff bar would have been way better

Pov: your parents kicked you out of the house

Add some anti diarrhea pills

great kit
