Miranda Boone I’m just starting my kit. I have an inhaler EpiPen and beta blockers plus blood pressure meds I have to keep on me. This video is helping me figure out what I need and don’t need besides my meds. Thanks for the helpful video.
That last part about defending yourself and being hard to kill reminded me of a few things. One way of surviving is if you're unsure of yourself in a certain situations you should run. Unless it's against some wild animals because running will trigger their chase/hunt instincts. The other is from what my uncle's neighbors told me years ago. He said if you're corner and you have no other option and the odds are stacked up against you than you Fight Dirty. You pull hair, bite, throw dirt in their eyes, grab a stick or rock. You do whatever you need to do to defend yourself You give it everything you got and don't let up. Also if it's in a life or death situation you don't show pity, mercy, or remorse because it's either your life or them.
Great video Sootch. This simple philosophy can save your life. It doesn’t matter what scenario you’re prepping for these items should be the foundation of your kit. Thanks for sharing sir.
one thing I would choose as a survival item above most others is a pot of potassium permanganate its cheap its in all. pharmacists drug stores and it does so many most important things,mix it with standard granulated sugar and you have instant fire,mix it into suspect water and it makes it safe to drink,mix it with water,pour over wounds to kill 99.99% of germs,another option of instant fire is PP with glycerin poured on top causes instant chemical reaction fire..PP can be sprinkled lightly on wounds ,then add glycerine to quarterize deep wounds,painful...yes..but it is affective,maybe you might want to practice that one a bit,but anyway you look at it for a couple of bucks a bottle of PP..is high on a survival kit..hope this helps someone...its probably the third item to go into my kit..but please read up on it so you are familiar with it.
Excellent Stuff!! Well put together! Your point on "air" is spot on! Pollen, Stings, Forest fire... Quart/Gal. baggie, gather water, store masks. Add aluminum foil. Dig hole, shape foil, add water & hot rocks to boil. Water keeps brain working. Take "safety" off lighter, also add Tape. Pepper spray better than nothing. Go Primal, make club and spear! "Be hard to kill"!!!
a couple of general items not widely used are cigar hard cases ,they make perfect accomadation for cyalume snap lights..alcohol hip flasks make great fuel containers for zippos or even just for an emergency fire starter,they weigh next to nothing,and because its just for fuel you can get Em on ebay for cheap..the wrecking bars you like can also be used as a perfectly practical grappling hook and with a couple of drill holes strategically placed won't affect the strength but makes placing a rope exactly where you want it a bit easier.
God bless you. You sure do remind me of someone with extensive military survival training. Like someone I would teach. God bless you again for a great video. Peace be with you. Amen
First, I had THE SAME bee-sting experience (stung inside my throat while drinking a soda from a can.) Thank GOD that I'm not allergic to bee stings. But, it hurt like CRAZY! Had to go take a nap, and sleep it off. Second, instead of 3 seconds without hope, I like to say: 3 seconds without defense. Granted, people CAN quick-draw faster than three seconds. But, it's kinda my way of introducing firearms/knives/body armor/defense into the rule of threes. e.g. You've got about three seconds to assess a dangerous situation, and find cover, or defend yourself. Thanks again for the videos! Keep 'em coming!
This helpd, I was wondering what to do with paper clips and rubber bands and any other stuff, but now I know what I have to do, keep up the good work, and stay safe my dude
I’ve been making a 72 hour kit and I also like redundancy in my fire starting. A bic lighter, matches in a water proof container and a fire steel/striker.
Fun With Guns always keep an Altoids size tin of petroleum jelly soaked cotton balls individually wrapped in wax paper I keep sealed with electrical tape!
Hey brother !! Always enjoy your videos The SOL space bivy is in all my packs Cheap insurance for getting cold & wet in the outdoors Keep up the great work Regards from NC
Catfish Jenkem No no no ..the rule of threes means ... scotch ,vodka ,and tequila,, cigarrets ,cigars, and some Mary Jane.. now you and your whole team are happy
It really depends on the patient and wound. Is the patient over weight and have heart problems? Is the femoral artery completely severed? Almost all books are currently saying 3 minutes.
Good advice. Actually had a hunting buddy leave camp without his pack for a short afternoon hunt. This was in the most God forsaken country in Arizona. In short, he got lost long enough for the sun to set. Had nothing on him but his rifle. He managed to survive by stumbling across a cattle tank with nasty water and finding an old abandoned vehicle to shelter in for the night.
And for those with Asthma remember to add a few of those little packets of coffee, the caffeine will help in an emergency situation. Its close to a drug called theophylline which will open up the airways.
Another helpful vid Sootch. I like the antihistamine and I would go one more and have anti-diarrheal as it can exacerbate dehydration and 2nd method for water purification.
Keith Hutchison, you're right, diarrhea will dehydrate you quickly, but many times it is the body's way to expel nasty unwanted bacteria, either from spoiled food or contaminated water. Use anti-diarrhea meds judiciously. Let the body do it's thing, just ultra hydrate by drinking water. If severe diarrhea continues for 2-3 days, use meds to control it, but not to inhibit elimination all together.
Something I highly recommend, space/weight permitting, is an extra set of clothing in your car. If you need to save space you can use a FoodSaver or similar type vacuum packer to really make a lot of this stuff pretty darn small. The unit is great for food, as advertised, but once you have one you start finding TONS of stuff you can seal up for survival/emergency situations. Not only is it vacuum sealed for freshness but as a bonus it's also waterproof. I drive a reasonably small AWD car (WRX) so for clothes I've set things up so that under the front seats (free storage that you otherwise might not use!) of my car there's a full change of vacuum packed clothing. For myself that kit is under the driver's side and the same deal is under the passenger seat for my wife. That kit is: Socks, pants, long underwear pants, underwear, poly pro shirt, t shirt, long sleeve shirt, hat, gloves, sweater and a light jacket. I've also done a ton of other stuff that's in my car. Road flares last pretty much forever packed this way. It's also great for fire kits, lighters, medications, small amounts of ammo, aerial flares... really tons of stuff that you might want to keep airtight/dry but not have the weight/size & shape issues of a dry box or something. Don't even get me started about all the stuff you can find around the house to use these things on! Also, on the topic of food: Be careful assuming that people can survive for three weeks. Diabetics generally cannot do this. They require constant food to balance things out. Why do I mention this? Because look at the numbers. 40% of America is diabetic or pre-diabetic. If you have an emergency where you're with nine other people for some reason then statistically four of those people are diabetic or pre-diabetic and many of them may not know it. Given the wrong circumstances without food these folks will drop. I mean pass the hell out and it can happen fast. Once that happens they are on the road to coma and death. Skittles can fix this pretty quick if you catch it before they drop. If you don't you're gonna have to chew those skittles up to, spit the liquid in their mouth and make them swallow it. After they get back up they're gonna need some actual food to keep going.
I LOVE the idea of vacuum packed clothes! That would keep them clean, bugs out of them and compact them small enough to keep out of the way. BRILLIANT!
Just don't use it to compress something that has a down or other "puffy" type of insulation like PrimaLoft or DriDown. Doing so will basically destroy the insulation properties of the fill until you can put the item in a dryer and re-fluff the fill. Same goes, rather obviously, for sleeping bags.
It's good to have a few medicines. In the summer mosquito/tick spray is a must. Also anti itch cream. I also keep some Imodium on hand, diarrhea can lead to dehydration very quickly. I also keep a few extra alcohol wipes or hand sanitizer in my pack, last thing you want is dirty hands full of bacteria if you were to eat or dressing a wound.
Great information, however I was a US Merchant Marine and we were near the Arctic Circle, very close to the Pribilof islands. We we were notified of a ship turning over with men in the water. We altered course and steamed for the men. we lowered our skiff while we were still under power and the skiff turned over and broke free and sunk. We then used the crane to pick the men out of the water. Those men were in the waters off Alaska in the winter time, they were in the water for just shy of an hour without any protective clothing and they all lived. So 3 minutes is a good rule of thumb to be in ice cold water, it is not the rule. Adrenaline can do amazing things. Cheers!
What about Quick Clot and a basic sewing kit to stitch your ass back up. Also, a LifeStraw is essential and a Katadyn pump to fill your reservoir is nice too. Oh, a signaling mirror and a whistle are overlooked A LOT and could save your life, super small!
I would choose a better knife. A 4 inch blade full tang bushcraft knife is much more versatile and can process fire wood. Also, in some states, a flip open knife is illegal to carry.
Sootch, Thanks for these videos. Because of you I finally got off my butt and put together a Get Home Bag. It really give you some confidence to know you've got a kit that can help you out of a jam. It's sad that Marshall is gone but will you be doing any Going Gear meet and greet videos in the future?
Thanks Scott! You've made my day. Being prepared is just smart. As far as Going Gear, they have a lot of transition going on so I don't know the future. We'll see.
Guns don’t fall outside the rule of 3s. I’ve made it the first rule. “3 seconds in a hostile environment”, also to include fire safety (extinguishers, gas masks). Then, followed by “3 minutes without blood/air”. My question is where does tools, power, etc fall?
Sootch, Question. Have you had problems with the olight not always turning on with rechargeable batteries or not recharging? Thanks and keep up the good work.
Great video thank you!I heard people can live without food for 200 to 300 days drinking water alone.Those who love more than 21 days take any vitamins or nutrition or food ?
I was watching this video when my seven year old granddaughter came in and then your vid on the maxpedition riftcore popped up and she wanted to watch it so we did she loved the water test! I just received my mongo today in the mail and she helped me pack it out then we spent two hours watching your backpack and organizer vids she's only seven! And now obsessed with maxpedition and wants me to buy " gear" and take her hiking any idea what I should get her ? Her name is abrielle we call her Abbie love the vids sootch great job!
I personally think it's the wrong mindset that a lot of survivalists have that food should be an afterthought. Sure you can go without food for three weeks or more, but how effective are you after the first three days? It's a similarly misunderstood timeline with water, sure you can live without it for three days, but your effectiveness and ability to function (survive!) is almost gone after the first day and a half.
Exactly!! And if you have any kind of issues with your blood sugar - either hypoglycemia OR diabetes, going without ANY food is asking for REAL trouble. I've also heard a lot about the Life Straw water filters. I wonder how those filters he showed in the video compare with Life Straws. My local sporting goods place carries the Life Straws, too.
Thank you for covering this I have been showing your videos to my sister and brother in law. I'm try to help them be a bit more prepared for any emergencies that can happen. On another how are your LAPG boots holding up? I just got myself a pair of the black ones and I an loving them so far. God bless and thank you sir for these videos.
Should I include UA-cam videos in my survival gear?UA-cam vids have literelly taught me just the basic things I might have never known if not for UA-cam
hello,I thought this maybe one you might have missed,its an idea i was thinking of doing but on a search someone was had just done it and it was on one of those fund raising sites,so it should be available now,basically its simple when you know it,search emergency sos helium balloon,its a large extra tough balloon with a relative helium fill bottle which will take the balloon high enough to be seen for miles,and it works 24-7 and is equipped with a high intensity strobe light..so its a must for anyone who ventures away from civilization ? lol...anyway hope this helps someone,great channel,always have a laugh at the out takes/bloopers?

I remember you in another video mentioning 3 seconds without hope... I've always reminded myself that in any scenarios. Great video Sootch!
Yungi Park Three months without hope
im living my whole life without hope
I started to add it.... probably should have. Thanks Yungi!

Always good and always straight forward. Drill it home the rule of 3! Thank you.
Good tips. I would include a heavy duty thrash bag for poncho or shelter.
I appreciate all you do for me and all you do for us. Thank you.
Important topic, I agree in so many levels. Thank you so much for your time!

Sawyer mini water filter is fantastic imo. Adaptable to many bottles and used in many different ways.
Great edc items and options Sootch00
God bless you. You sure do remind me of someone with extensive military survival training. Like someone I would teach. God bless you again for a great video. Peace be with you. Amen
Good point with the Benadryl. Also works as a sleep aid when in a strange place.
One of the best vids I have seen you do . Thanks for sharing .
All excellent advice.
Thanks Sootch!

I have heard you mention the Rule of 3 in many videos, but appreciate the expanded video on that!
Lots of good ideas, thanks! Don't forget your CPR face shield - very small and light.
Well said, good video. Thanks for all your thoughts
I like these videos because my winter BOB gets sooo heavy! It reminds me to go through it.
Another great video !
You have inspired me to sort out my edc and a car kit in my and my wife’s car .
Great work as ever !👍
Thumbs way up
I like the rule of 3 expansions you added. Great video and thank you for sharing!
I did fall in a mountain creek in the summer once! coldest night of my life, probably was borderline hypothermic looking back.
This helpd, I was wondering what to do with paper clips and rubber bands and any other stuff, but now I know what I have to do, keep up the good work, and stay safe my dude
Great video Sootch, I thought it was going about be about multiple items; one is none and two is one.
Great information in here.
I’ve been making a 72 hour kit and I also like redundancy in my fire starting. A bic lighter, matches in a water proof container and a fire steel/striker.
Good Stuff
Fun With Guns always keep an Altoids size tin of petroleum jelly soaked cotton balls individually wrapped in wax paper I keep sealed with electrical tape!
Syco316 thanks. Good tip!
Fun With Guns no prob! 👍🏼
One of my favorite channels . Soda can stoves and vaseline cotton balls one of my favorite . Plus the dawn on the sunglasses to remove fog

Hey brother !!
Always enjoy your videos

Regards from NC
I included cigars and some Scotch ... Might as well be happy too .
Cigars and Scotch are a priority! Lol!
Catfish, now here's a man thinking ahead.........................
Those fall under life saving essentials
Catfish Jenkem sambuca ...good fire starter ,but you'd have to be really really desperate to waste it on that lol
Catfish Jenkem
No no no ..the rule of threes means ...
scotch ,vodka ,and tequila,, cigarrets ,cigars, and some Mary Jane..
now you and your whole team are happy
Three minutes goes by quick your bleeding out your femoral artery!
You know it Brother
I heard it still takes 180 seconds though.
It really depends on the patient and wound. Is the patient over weight and have heart problems? Is the femoral artery completely severed? Almost all books are currently saying 3 minutes.
awww crap ... not enough coffee yet ... 60x3=180 haha
SkinnyMedic No problem. I was just playing around. Love your channel too!
Very good video and informative thanks for sharing and God bless you...
Thanks for the Comment!

As always, another great informative video.
Thanks for the knowledge Sootch00 and long live the republic bro.

thanks for the video. I enjoy your videos
Very good video Buddy. Thanks for sharing the knowledge! Thumb's up~John
Check out the minimalist survivor kit from Fieldcraft Survival.
Great information, however I was a US Merchant Marine and we were near the Arctic Circle, very close to the Pribilof islands. We we were notified of a ship turning over with men in the water.

Thanks Scorpion, good to hear real life Stories! Even better to know they all lived.
What about Quick Clot and a basic sewing kit to stitch your ass back up. Also, a LifeStraw is essential and a Katadyn pump to fill your reservoir is nice too. Oh, a signaling mirror and a whistle are overlooked A LOT and could save your life, super small!
Show us how to strike that exotac again... the striker is on the other side of the handle.
Great advice, thanks for sharing the details! :-)
If youre hiking allways wear as much wool as possible. It retains heat even if wet.
I would choose a better knife. A 4 inch blade full tang bushcraft knife is much more versatile and can process fire wood. Also, in some states, a flip open knife is illegal to carry.
Sootch, Thanks for these videos. Because of you I finally got off my butt and put together a Get Home Bag. It really give you some confidence to know you've got a kit that can help you out of a jam.

As I tell my grandson, learn EVERYTHING you can, you might never need it, but then again, you don't know what life is going to throw at ya.
Great and informative upload. Thanks :)
Sootch, Question. Have you had problems with the olight not always turning on with rechargeable batteries or not recharging? Thanks and keep up the good work.
"Be hard to kill" classic lol
Thanks for the video...
Add 3 seconds in combat w/o cover
Awesome video for an awesome rule! Also the Rule of three is good for S.O.S Calls as well! maybe go into the Deeper Rule of 3 cause its Everything!
You always do a great job in your videos ..... JUST SO YOU KNOW THE TRUTH.
How long can we survive on fruits alone without drinking any liquids ?
Thanks Sootch, good info :)
Great video thank you!I heard people can live without food for 200 to 300 days drinking water alone.Those who love more than 21 days take any vitamins or nutrition or food ?
1 is none, 2 is one
Fun With Guns
You got that right
Great rule to survive by.
I have always used it myself.
I was watching this video when my seven year old granddaughter came in and then your vid on the maxpedition riftcore popped up and she wanted to watch it so we did she loved the water test! I just received my mongo today in the mail and she helped me pack it out then we spent two hours watching your backpack and organizer vids she's only seven! And now obsessed with maxpedition and wants me to buy " gear" and take her hiking any idea what I should get her ? Her name is abrielle we call her Abbie love the vids sootch great job!
I personally think it's the wrong mindset that a lot of survivalists have that food should be an afterthought. Sure you can go without food for three weeks or more, but how effective are you after the first three days?

Belgian here, and yes, we do not have such access to guns. I do recommend learning Krav Maga which is a military combat style. Very valuable!!
Thanks Brother! Empty Handed Fighting Skills are valuable whether you're armed or not.
Yet you do have access to BELGIAN WAFFLES !! YUMMY !!
Look into Jiu Jitsu.
They are just called waffles lol
3 sec without hope
Derek Comingo the worst of all scenarios
3 seconds without attention. That's the first ! Nice one, Sootch.
Thanks Kasmo!
Check out “ fat rope “ great for any conditions.
I swe you put up go bag of the thing. You put in no cling kit for your guns
Yes, I also include heavy arterial bleeding in the rule of threes
Great Vid Sootch.....Great Layout.. Which ZT knife is that?
Simply and very well done!
Thanks DF-4
Man the bees in the can are a regular thing here in Missouri . You need a lid or keep it covered
where can i find a shamaog or however its spelled online?
Thank you for covering this I have been showing your videos to my sister and brother in law. I'm try to help them be a bit more prepared for any emergencies that can happen. On another how are your LAPG boots holding up? I just got myself a pair of the black ones and I an loving them so far. God bless and thank you sir for these videos.
Awesome! Thanks John!
Should I include UA-cam videos in my survival gear?UA-cam vids have literelly taught me just the basic things I might have never known if not for UA-cam
Very good video .learned a lot .
hello,I thought this maybe one you might have missed,its an idea i was thinking of doing but on a search someone was had just done it and it was on one of those fund raising sites,so it should be available now,basically its simple when you know it,search emergency sos helium balloon,its a large extra tough balloon with a relative helium fill bottle which will take the balloon high enough to be seen for miles,and it works 24-7 and is equipped with a high intensity strobe light..so its a must for anyone who ventures away from civilization ? lol...anyway hope this helps someone,great channel,always have a laugh at the out takes/bloopers?
Great video, thanks for the epic content
Random questions, what kind of watch is that your wearing? i like it
sir what about 3 seconds without hope? God is still with me no matter what.
Dont forget Toilet Paper !!!!
This can not be overstated!
Got 2 rolls in the lid of my ILBE backpack. :)
One more rules of 3...stay away from 3 leaf vines.
in additional to baby type wipes!
Wysi wipes would save on space
great video, thanks
Super helpful. Thanks.
Thanks for watching Jake!
Love u men you're the best thanks for the videos
Thanks Emilio!
Good info as always SP
3 minutes in water before hypothermia sets in ?
I guess i had to stay out of water while staying close to a water source (rivers, lakes, etc.).
This was awesome :)
Thanks Brother!
Where do you get those little zipper bag
