Well, it showed a couple of things.

C) With the threat of running out of TP my kids finally learned to use the paper they need instead of triple that amount. That was a solid win.
And where did you actually see that happen, in person? Supermarkets in my area were actually less frequented than usual, and nothing was out of stock, except maybe the cheapest brand of pasta, for like 2 weeks.
@@hubertuswolfthaler lucky you. There was literally news coverage of it. Our shelves were nearly empty in my area at several locations.

Best prepper move ever - Building a strong community, working together. It doesn't matter how much time you spend at a gun range or how much food you got stocked. A well coordinated offensive against your house, and you will lose. Definitely try to build a community with like minded people.

And where do you think that "well coordinated offensive" will come from? People are no more prepared for that than prepping in the first place. Building a community of like minded people is expensive, difficult, and highly risky. No guarantee any will remain like-minded. Worry about rebuilding after things settle down.

@Tuberculosis Dan it would take an extreme level EMP and being directly at the source to damage simple AGM or flooded cell batteries by causing them to self short and internally discharge from massive static build up. That realistically won't happen unless you're right at the source of detonation. What an EMP does destroy is the fine electronics, the capacitors, microcontrollers, and other higher level circuitry. basic circuits like simple electric motors, incandescent lightbulbs, simple switch systems like a car's starter motor and fuel pump, those will largely be unaffected. Most(probably 90% or more) of the damage is going to be caused by the EM pulse being soaked into the power lines and causing a massive power surge and other funky issues to anything plugged into the grid.
They sure don’t! The way things been looking every 6 months to a year and just gets worse! Can’t believe the stuff that is going on in the world right now

Yeah... people who are serious about preparedness tend to take health into account. Shows like this tend to take things out of context and make people look crazy. Or they look for the crazy ones for the drama.
Me 2019: Doomsday preppers is on. Let's laugh at these idiots. Me 2020: Doomsday preppers is on. I'm taking notes. Me 2021: I'm watching doomsday preppers from my bug out bunker.
Kellene is Amazing! She can cook and preserve food, fight and teach others, and as a Filipino, her accent in Tagalog was surprisingly good! She seems like the kind of person who could do anything she put her mind to. What a badass!
@Tuberculosis Dan I disagree. Fat is stored energy and in a SHTF scenario you won't have access to food. And you will lose weight fast. I lost two stone in five weeks just from walking when Covid started as I was bored sitting around.
@@stephenmurray2851 some of these people can’t even run away from a kid on a tricycle, imagine getting flanked by a bunch of folks who are just slightly athletic
@Tuberculosis Dan yeah, that's why I think The lady who loves to cook isn't really a prepper, she's a hoarder with hobbies. Which is fine, it's just sad to know that someday all that food is just going to waste, or someone else will take it from them.
Lol also keeping eggs for 9 to 12 months? She better do her research again, maybe 8 months at the max. I hope people didn't get sick at her community dinner :/ she's WAY too focused on making yummy food. She should just open a restaurant.
We just helped friends of our move to a new apartment. The amount of survival gear and “prepper” stuff they had was scary. We had no idea they were doomsday preppers because they never talked about it. It’s not something to advertise because if something did happen in the world, everyone would be heading over to their house.
@@reaperhunter7297 Simple fact: Theres many good Reasons to Prep, but Doomsday is just not 1 of them. It's just not. Also, on another note: It buffles me how the 'kind' of 'prepping' of Watching, supporting and recommending-each-other Science-UA-camrs and Education-Channel is never mentioned by big prepper-channels. Dont people know the simple and demonstrable fact that more education = better?
@@loturzelrestaurant the world not gonna end any time soon. scammers been banking on gullibles well before the 80s. p*sses me off regarding this horsechit is groceries on amazon are often expired or mouldy from buying damaged overstock and preppers dont care its all good. everyone else has to pay for their stupidity.
There was parts of the US that had massive storms where people were with out power and heating for a few weeks. I know people that told me there was 20 foot snow drifts in places and if you did not have flower you were not having bread or no generator you had no electricity.
Just watched this episode today, almost two years since this was posted. We are facing hyperinflation, gas prices through the roof, we are at a threat of nuclear attack from Russia. These people don't seem so crazy.
i think preppers shouldn't be made fun of, like they currently are. i think more people should be encouraged and even rewarded for prepping. when disasters strike, having lots of people in every community who are ready for it will mean the country will fair much better as a whole, with each community being able to help itself on a basic level, until more help can be summoned.
During the shutdown many preppers did not need to go out to super markets and compete for things. Being prepared is just common sense. There are video's of people being trapped in their apartments with no food in Asia.
@@harmonymiller1211 I don't even call it going back they just remembered how you actually have to live I was something of a pepper before anyone even told me what it was because should we just collect more food why the f*** am I going to go to a grocery store once a week that sounds crazy why would I buy things that I literally don't need why would I give a s*** what other people think why would I buy something just to be like oh yes look at my nice fancy car when I get just as easily save the money and have more money I truly think everywhere around me are people who are f****** insane I really do believe anyone who's just blindly going along with consumerist culture they are insane they may be saying in our society but to be seen in an insane society is a bad sign of your mental health
So many mean comments about their weight that people actualy missed the part where these preppers said how they want to help others. The way they help their comunity is amazing even if nothing bad happens. The second family is helping women gain skills to defend themselves from everyday dangers.
We are just being realistic, fatties will not stand a chance during an economic collapse, or even doomsday, they need to be able to survive deadly situations, fend for themselves, and so on. Its one thing to help others, but to not help yourself by losing weight while saying you are preparing for doomsday is idiotic, they can have all the food in the world, but their weight will hold them back from defending their food.
Maybe watch something different than National Geographic. This show tends to make prepping dramatic. Practicing preparedness can be exceptionally logical and wise. And it doesn’t have to cost a fortune.
I loved the woman who could cook, she's pure gold to be honest. I mean, run a business she could be a cook, body guard, discount saver, I'm like who raised you?
I find it fascinating, how people are more concerned about an unknown and indirect threat, than the ones they are currently facing. The first guy would likely die from a heart attack, over a solar flare. I know that's sounds mean, but it's true. He's putting all of his time and energy into preparing for an event that he cannot predict nor stop, over something he can predict and prevent. But I guess that's why National Geographic makes shows like this, because they can predict people will watch it because of how unpredictable these scenarios are.
To be fair, he is trying to prevent his weight problem from causing something like that. To the point he’s even getting surgery, which you have a pretty decent chance at dying from so he’s taking that issue on just as serious. And while some of these are a bit far stretched it’s not unrealistic. Each of these apocalyptic scenarios on their own does not have a very strong likelihood of happening, but if you add every last one of these chaotic theories, the chances for at least one of them happening is not too unlikely to happen, and while they’re preparing for something specific, what they’re preparing can come in handy in most other apocalyptic scenario too. Like if the first guy finds himself in the second stories scenario, his plans are still gonna help him. I’m not prepping like these people are, but I will have a stash and some plans ready just in case. “Hope for the best but prepare for the worst” if the motto I go by
He's definitely one of the least offensive doomsday preppers I've seen. He's still a goofball like the rest, but he's focused on genuinely practical matters, he doesn't have delusional paranoia, and he's planning how he'd contribute to a post-doomsday society. So many of these other guys are just fantasizing about how they could become a hermit and shoot a bunch of people if only society would collapse already.
@@loturzelrestaurant There are local disasters, general food/supply shortages, inflation, financial stability. But doomsday is still one of them. Worldwide disasters cannot be discounted as a possibility, you still have to prepare even if unlikely.
@@erikasauer4140 So what's this proof-you-didnt-read-my-comment meant to tell me, other than you literally did not read my comment before replying to it? Am i supposed to say 'Thanks Mr.Obvious' for telling me what everyone knows? Or for missingmy point and stating something dumb: That oomsday is 'unlikely but possible'?
Rule #2 of prepping: don't. Why would you, the apocalypse most likely wont be zombies or aliens you can hide from. Its probably gonna be something from space that will erradicate us any moment with us not knowing.
@@gamesnig apocalypse? The preppers I know do it for what has happened over and over again throughout history. Riots, violence, natural disasters, government coops, war, famine, broken economies, so many things that can and do happen that we are powerless to stop. It's being prepared for the norm, not abnormalities like aliens or comets.
These families seem like very loving caring people. We're seniors up here in Canada, wife and I figure...'to live is Christ to die is gain,' we don't worry a lot, we just live one day at a time. We think it quite amazing how talented and industrious these folks are, not crazy for sure.
Honestly, they aren't preppers specifically, The fact is, she's a hoarder who loves to cook, and they love to do social things, as evidenced by inviting a bunch of people over and doing the self-defense stuff etc. Which is fine, but yeah they wouldn't really survive if SHTF lol. But if it makes her happy, cool.
I remember seeing Coleen and Scott speaking tagalog and I was like whoooa! I really respect what they were doing: sharing their knowledge to their community is commendable. I hope they will thrive in these upcoming years.
David suffers from a heart attack, stroke or cancer before anything happens. He puts so much afford into his prepping but forgets the most important. His own health.
@Neil Miranda Sure it is a hobby. And way better for them than doing nothing in their free time. Just saying that part of this whole surviving idea should be a healthy diet too. I totally get the fun parts of this hobby and the social aspects of creating groups and exchange knowledge.
I haven't yet watched the whole thing but I like the first guy - "I hope I am crazy" - he recognises he may just be nuts / paranoid / simply wrong, yet prepares just in case. Kind of like having a first aid kit but hoping you never need to use it for anything serious.
Well, maybe I should correct myself, I mean in a sense they are preppers for any low-level kind of emergency, but of course in worst case, no lol. But to be honest, most of us aren't.
30:43-31:01 - "I just don't spend my time worrying about storing guns and ammunition, because our security comes not from stockpiling weapons, but from having a community that respects each other, supports each other, and we have each others' backs." Sounds like a great plan, until either someone within gets greedy and wants what you have or someone from outside wants what all of you have and is armed.
That is what I thought like is amazing to have a community but if none of you have any skills in security how are you going to defend from other people out there that might not want the best for your community?
Just like 4wd on vehicle. In a year within purchase you would have already spend the same amount of money that would have gotten the 4wd on clothes, junk food, beer/wine/liquor, gifts for people that don’t care about you…etc 😂😂😂
I'm a prepper, I have a homestead in the high desert off grid, I have horses, sheep, goats, pigs and chickens! A private pond stocked with catfish, bass and bluegill! Commercial size greenhouses, year around creek that produces 1,100 gallons a minute for irrigation! Tractors, solar, wind, everything to build a bunker, bio digester system!
@@joyaustin6581 Texas is good country from what I know! I'm in northern California, high desert in a very conservative part of the state not liberal like our counter parts! Would you like my number Joy?
It's sad to say, but most of these families wouldn't stand a chance. It's one thing to be capable of hoarding supplies, but it's an entirely different thing to keep them. A group of overweight adults barely capable of walking (and who have no tactical training) would not be able to defend themselves against a group of people who are trained to inflict violence and take their stuff. Apart from hardening your location with a large group of people and defenses, the best thing you could do is to avoid making yourself into a target to begin with by not making your location and supplies known. They're doing the exact opposite of that by taking part in a television show that is broadcast around the world.
Exactly. I myself am a prepper and yes even though I am breaking OPSEC by admitting to this I do not go online talk about what all I have, where I live or anything like that...
@@JohnDoe-zl6ph I'd be very happy if we were to reach some light prepper territory (not survivalist SHTF) and it came out that no one was very inconvenienced as they were preppared enough to comfortably survive that 3-days to a week it took for the government to get water/food/electricity supply-line fixed.
Since I had to leave my apartment three times already this year because someone in another apartment started a fire, I actually have a rucksack with water, food, money, clothes, and power banks ready at all time.
“Power doesn’t come from stocking weapons but from helping each other.” Nice lady but I think she doesn’t realize that the people stocking guns won’t be bartering
@@pyrogun1839 well to be honest stupid people are smart you just need a gun, travel light and fast. all the food are their ball and chain. they will be under constant attack.
Emergency situations only amplify who you are in everyday life. Generous people show unyielding generosity and self-sacrifice whereas selfish narcissists trample and kill for self-preservation. And both kinds of people will have guns.
Yeah, she's half right. Helping each other is a major key, but if you have no means to protect what is yours there will be bad people that in harsh times that will take what they want. Hopefully if any event were to happen people within her community can defend them.
When you save for your children's college, You Are A Prepper. When you put money in your savings to build a little cush in case your washing machine, dryer or other appliances need to be fixed, You Are A Prepper. So don't allow anyone to knock prepping because they all do it in one form or another.
At the end of each case, National Geographic gives you the idea that you don't really need to do this when in actuality being prepared should be normal.
Years ago i would of called you guys crazy. Now with everything going on in the world like it is. Im starting to think these people may not be crazy just smarter then most people. They may see what's comming...

@@Kopie0830 possible, and I could see people working harder than normal in a survival situation... So maybe the fatties would go first, even though it seems counter intuitive
NatGeo, I demand an update on these people at the conclusion of the pandemic. I want to know how they did, if their plans worked, if they ate all their food, etc. Make it happen.
When I was a student, we had fire drills all the time. Told us to keep calm always, even during a fire. One time, I was doing my tutorials and thought I smelled smoke. It didn’t occur to me that it was a wildfire approaching. We all ran out in a frantic panic and all those fire drills and what we were taught, flew right out the window😅
I'm really impressed with David. He's still a goofball like the rest of these people but he's thinking about genuinely practical stuff rather than just fantasizing about all the people he'll get to shoot.
Simple fact: Theres many good Reasons to Prep, but Doomsday is just not 1 of them. It's just not.

David revealed his radio callsign in the original episode aired, allowing anyone to look up his location. He later posted a video about getting into legal troubles, with his firearms seized by court order. Lost interest in him at that point.
@@Erickwashere .. Yeah. I watch the episode when it aired and quickly looked up his location afterwards. Using Google maps, I could see his property, including his antennas and areas where he was filmed at. Many others did the same. Months later, he got into an argument with hospital staff (who called the police). That was the start of his legal troubles, resulting in the permanent loss of his firearms (a prepper with no means to defend himself). The whole thing stretched on for months, so I lost interest.
I can still remember that time during the start of the pandemic all grocery shelves are empty and that was scary. Imagine these guys living with less worry because they have been prepared. Salute.
Our media never tells us anything... May 2020 Pluto atmosphere collapsed. December 2020 Neptune atmosphere reversed. Uranus will be next.. When it hits earth we won't be able to grow food for time.
I’m sure most of these people are prepared for several things but NG probably tells them to pick one ridiculous thing to be more entertaining, that’s just reality TV though.
remember like 10 years ago on yt when you saw this kind of people, I use to laugh. But to be honest I'm prepping a bit as well and learning useful skills
That's the biggest flaw with most people on this show. It's a while since I've seen the full series, but I don't recall any of them mentioning learning about nutrition or proper physical fitness and very few mentioned having any form of first aid training.
Coleen is preparing a meal for all of those people with her preserved food. But she is cooking it on an electric stove. She needs to become proficient in cooking over open flame. There is a difference.
If she has other forms of energy to power her electric appliances, then it's okay for her to use an electric stove. It's expensive but if she can afford it there's solar panels, wind turbines and manually powered generators. There are also solar powered cookers too that use the heat from the sun to cook food. Also on those days when there isn't any sun, they can use barbecue pits, grills and such.
The people who were making honey and cider,notice how they were prepping for an earthquake,but they were putting food in jars...which means if the jars fall from the earthquake all they're food will be gone
@@pogmothoin7133 oh of course not being sarcastic. no. i'm saying that they should use something unbreakable .. tins is maybe a good idea ... perhaps silicon food-safe bags ... plastic jars ..? Something easy to wash and re-use.
If I remember right, they are located somewhere in New England. New Hampshire, Vermont or something. The earthquake they are worried about runs along the Missisippi river a thousand miles from them. They won't feel a thing.
This gentleman has some VERY GOOD videos on" how to do" many different things , all important . Plus his vids have some great country humor mixed in . The heavy set lady is inspirational and wonderful .
"Our security is the community built around honesty and respect" the community: I'll poison them or cut their throat while they are sleeping It's super easy to laugh at them, but they are actually doing the right thing, most of us would die or be struggling while some of the preppers out there have a higher chance of surviving.
Really smart people are often misunderstood to be crazy. After 2020 I've decided to be more self sufficient and think more critically of preparing for worst case scenarios. Started taking archery classes and starting to learn to grow my own food.
@@Lolo5 i wouldn't call myself a really smart person, no. I just practicalise on what others have done for my own benifit. It's really good to grow your own fruits and vegetables, prices are insane rn! Took up gardening, archery and beekeeping as new hobbys that are fun and somewhat practical if shtf. If you want to start with something, corn and tomato's is easy to grow and flow hives are easy to maintain and care for, not easy though but worth it.

Not making fun of prepping, as it is smart to be into preparedness. But step 1: start losing weight and become physically healthy.
@Tuberculosis Dan I disagree. Fat is stored energy and in a SHTF scenario you won't have access to food. And you will lose weight fast. I lost two stone in five weeks just from walking when Covid started as I was bored sitting around.

@@stephenmurray2851 "Fat is stored energy" - it also requires more energy to move around because you're literally moving more weight.
@Tuberculosis Dan yeah, that's why I think The lady who loves to cook isn't really a prepper, she's a hoarder with hobbies. Which is fine, it's just sad to know that someday all that food is just going to waste, or someone else will take it from them.

i think preppers shouldn't be made fun of, like they currently are. i think more people should be encouraged and even rewarded for prepping. when disasters strike, having lots of people in every community who are ready for it will mean the country will fair much better as a whole, with each community being able to help itself on a basic level, until more help can be summoned.
During the shutdown many preppers did not need to go out to super markets and compete for things.

We need a new season of Doomsday Preppers. We have people living in buses, RV’s and plastic homes now.
So many mean comments about their weight that people actualy missed the part where these preppers said how they want to help others. The way they help their comunity is amazing even if nothing bad happens. The second family is helping women gain skills to defend themselves from everyday dangers.
We are just being realistic, fatties will not stand a chance during an economic collapse, or even doomsday, they need to be able to survive deadly situations, fend for themselves, and so on. Its one thing to help others, but to not help yourself by losing weight while saying you are preparing for doomsday is idiotic, they can have all the food in the world, but their weight will hold them back from defending their food.

I think the largest point that is often ignored is that prepping is fun, and a healthy and productive hobby
Yeah, that's the impression I got from them all - that they actually enjoy the prepper lifestyle!
The most important aspect of being a preper is NOT letting everyone know your game plan. A true preper keeps their lips closed.

Or don't even have a plan.
Like me.
Can't really ruin my plans if I don't have any in the first place.

1. I guess he got paid.
2. Also, we don't know where he is.
Facts
I find it fascinating, how people are more concerned about an unknown and indirect threat, than the ones they are currently facing. The first guy would likely die from a heart attack, over a solar flare. I know that's sounds mean, but it's true. He's putting all of his time and energy into preparing for an event that he cannot predict nor stop, over something he can predict and prevent. But I guess that's why National Geographic makes shows like this, because they can predict people will watch it because of how unpredictable these scenarios are.
:) hahahha
That guy from the solar flare prep lost over 200 pounds :) this video is from a couple years back
@@notawoke7531 😱really ? How you know?!
They just might become food ,sorry but,it's true .
To be fair, he is trying to prevent his weight problem from causing something like that. To the point he’s even getting surgery, which you have a pretty decent chance at dying from so he’s taking that issue on just as serious. And while some of these are a bit far stretched it’s not unrealistic. Each of these apocalyptic scenarios on their own does not have a very strong likelihood of happening, but if you add every last one of these chaotic theories, the chances for at least one of them happening is not too unlikely to happen, and while they’re preparing for something specific, what they’re preparing can come in handy in most other apocalyptic scenario too. Like if the first guy finds himself in the second stories scenario, his plans are still gonna help him.
I’m not prepping like these people are, but I will have a stash and some plans ready just in case. “Hope for the best but prepare for the worst” if the motto I go by
I hope he gets his health back in shape as much as he can, he seems like a genuine well-intentioned guy.
He's definitely one of the least offensive doomsday preppers I've seen. He's still a goofball like the rest, but he's focused on genuinely practical matters, he doesn't have delusional paranoia, and he's planning how he'd contribute to a post-doomsday society. So many of these other guys are just fantasizing about how they could become a hermit and shoot a bunch of people if only society would collapse already.
Simple fact:
Theres many good Reasons to Prep,
but Doomsday is just not 1 of them. It's just not.

Rule #2 of prepping: don't. Why would you, the apocalypse most likely wont be zombies or aliens you can hide from. Its probably gonna be something from space that will erradicate us any moment with us not knowing.
@@gamesnig apocalypse? The preppers I know do it for what has happened over and over again throughout history. Riots, violence, natural disasters, government coops, war, famine, broken economies, so many things that can and do happen that we are powerless to stop.

Not gnna lie, the 2nd family knowing the layout of a house in the dark is actually something useful

“We don’t reveal all our cards” lmfao 🤣 update: our cards revealed.. “we added water and power to our reserves”.
RULE #1 of prepper club: You never speak of prepper club.
Damb right they will. You will also be a target being over weight, people will know you have food.
Honestly, they aren't preppers specifically, The fact is, she's a hoarder who loves to cook, and they love to do social things, as evidenced by inviting a bunch of people over and doing the self-defense stuff etc. Which is fine, but yeah they wouldn't really survive if SHTF lol.

I haven't yet watched the whole thing but I like the first guy - "I hope I am crazy" - he recognises he may just be nuts / paranoid / simply wrong, yet prepares just in case. Kind of like having a first aid kit but hoping you never need to use it for anything serious.
Failure to prepare is preparing to fail. Also it's betters to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it.
Ah yes, the best way to keep intruders from stealing your food is to tell the entire world exactly how much food you have and where you keep it😂
Yeah they're not really preppers, they just have hobbies and like to collect stuff and cook.

Well, maybe I should correct myself, I mean in a sense they are preppers for any low-level kind of emergency, but of course in worst case, no lol. But to be honest, most of us aren't.
30:43-31:01 - "I just don't spend my time worrying about storing guns and ammunition, because our security comes not from stockpiling weapons, but from having a community that respects each other, supports each other, and we have each others' backs." Sounds like a great plan, until either someone within gets greedy and wants what you have or someone from outside wants what all of you have and is armed.
That is what I thought like is amazing to have a community but if none of you have any skills in security how are you going to defend from other people out there that might not want the best for your community?

It's sad to say, but most of these families wouldn't stand a chance. It's one thing to be capable of hoarding supplies, but it's an entirely different thing to keep them. A group of overweight adults barely capable of walking (and who have no tactical training) would not be able to defend themselves against a group of people who are trained to inflict violence and take their stuff.
Apart from hardening your location with a large group of people and defenses, the best thing you could do is to avoid making yourself into a target to begin with by not making your location and supplies known. They're doing the exact opposite of that by taking part in a television show that is broadcast around the world.
Exactly. I myself am a prepper and yes even though I am breaking OPSEC by admitting to this I do not go online talk about what all I have, where I live or anything like that...

If they aren’t crazy, they are at least getting very close.
They arent prepared at all, they couldnt run 500m
i swear due to how crazy people act nowadays these guys looks less crazy and sound even more reasonable
Our media never tells us anything... May 2020 Pluto atmosphere collapsed. December 2020 Neptune atmosphere reversed. Uranus will be next.. When it hits earth we won't be able to grow food for time.
@@pspcraft this isn’t true at all lmao.
preppers lead the way ! HOOAH
Imagine spending your entire life preparing for a disaster, but you die from a different one you weren't prepared for.
I’m sure most of these people are prepared for several things but NG probably tells them to pick one ridiculous thing to be more entertaining, that’s just reality TV though.
remember like 10 years ago on yt when you saw this kind of people, I use to laugh. But to be honest I'm prepping a bit as well and learning useful skills
I've actually gone more from prepping to trekking during the last few years! ;)
Its true funny i first see this kind of people but now its happening and being a prepper is a good idea now
Become healthier!! That is one of the keys!!
That's the biggest flaw with most people on this show. It's a while since I've seen the full series, but I don't recall any of them mentioning learning about nutrition or proper physical fitness and very few mentioned having any form of first aid training.
why ...to die healthy most people will not last month one.
Coleen is preparing a meal for all of those people with her preserved food. But she is cooking it on an electric stove. She needs to become proficient in cooking over open flame. There is a difference.
As a chef I noticed that immediately lol. I had that same realization between my first and 2nd kitchen I worked in
Right unless your going to have a huge fire and tons of time nobody is making 7 different dishes
If she has other forms of energy to power her electric appliances, then it's okay for her to use an electric stove. It's expensive but if she can afford it there's solar panels, wind turbines and manually powered generators.
There are also solar powered cookers too that use the heat from the sun to cook food. Also on those days when there isn't any sun, they can use barbecue pits, grills and such.
I wonder if the economists they talked to STILL think we're not at risk of hyperinflation.....
The people who were making honey and cider,notice how they were prepping for an earthquake,but they were putting food in jars...which means if the jars fall from the earthquake all they're food will be gone
yep .... they need to pack the food in unbreakable things
@@ariyotheapbtservicedog idk if your being sarcastic or not but yeah they should at least put it in tins
@@pogmothoin7133 oh of course not being sarcastic. no. i'm saying that they should use something unbreakable .. tins is maybe a good idea ... perhaps silicon food-safe bags ... plastic jars ..? Something easy to wash and re-use.
@@ariyotheapbtservicedog yeah
If I remember right, they are located somewhere in New England. New Hampshire, Vermont or something. The earthquake they are worried about runs along the Missisippi river a thousand miles from them. They won't feel a thing.
Looks like a fun hobby that engages the whole family. Many people need something to focus on! aslong as it does not turn into paranoia
Uhm... no.
More folks ought to be doing this.
But please have yourself in good health and a good weight and sit what’s the point of prepping if you’re not in good health
True
I agree. I'm thinking they're figuring they'll just outsmart these preppers and acquire all that they've worked on saving.
This gentleman has some VERY GOOD videos on" how to do" many different things , all important . Plus his vids have some great country humor mixed in . The heavy set lady is inspirational and wonderful .
It's so nice of that New England couple to prep so someone else can take it all with guns and survive.
Thats what I was thinking
They did say they wanted to help their community lol 😂
"Our security is the community built around honesty and respect"
the community: I'll poison them or cut their throat while they are sleeping
It's super easy to laugh at them, but they are actually doing the right thing, most of us would die or be struggling while some of the preppers out there have a higher chance of surviving.
They'll last longer than the moron who weighs half a ton and thinks he's going to singlehandedly fight off an armed mob.
I wonder if she is going to invite all the inmates from her local Prison or Rikers Island to Dinner ? She just might be on the menu 🤯
I'm from the Philippines and those couple speaking Tagalog surprised me😂. What are the odds? 😆
I was thinking about that too. More surprised they said it was a rare language. I am in California though so it may make a difference.
Hala anong timestap?? 🤣

Nagulat din ako hahaha go girl
Pretty good, I'd say - aren't there around 100 million speakers of Tagalog? They should go with Ilongo.
Really smart people are often misunderstood to be crazy. After 2020 I've decided to be more self sufficient and think more critically of preparing for worst case scenarios. Started taking archery classes and starting to learn to grow my own food.
are you calling yourself really smart?
@@Lolo5 i wouldn't call myself a really smart person, no. I just practicalise on what others have done for my own benifit. It's really good to grow your own fruits and vegetables, prices are insane rn! Took up gardening, archery and beekeeping as new hobbys that are fun and somewhat practical if shtf. If you want to start with something, corn and tomato's is easy to grow and flow hives are easy to maintain and care for, not easy though but worth it.
