Great video! While I enjoy many survival-related UA-cam channels, they usually omit the survival skill of “Proper planning enables me to avoid a survival scenario” in favor of content related to “I am in a survival scenario now, what do I do?”
Well said!
@@EverydayTacticalVids everyone needs a friend like me. I have the cure🧪
I have a survival mindset from growing up and running the woods. I'm a hunter, I have a summit treestand (a climber) with 2 side bags,after a close call of being lost I'm now prepared for self rescue. I uploaded 2 videos. An apocalyptic scenario would be a little more than the average situation.
Very good and responsible video!
The short story for me, I’ve been in a couple of survival situations (myself and helping others) and no, it’s not fun. It’s stressful and people could die. Thanks to the way I was brought up, I had some skills to get me through. I’m older, my wife and I are disabled and my son is autistic. I plan and carry, collect supplies for all of us. My biggest worry is “will my family be ok?” In a survival situation. So I watch to prepare for that scenario.
Great message on this video, even just preparation and training for an all hazards event, along with a few pieces of gear goes a long long way.
As someone who has been in a survival situation, I can vouch for it being a scary situation. Granted I didn't have near the gear or skills that I have now so it was tougher. All I had was a knife, a lighter, my bow (I was hunting when it happened), and a steel water bottle. That was a scary ass 4 days. I may have way more skills and gear now but I pray that I never have to use them unless I'm on Alone or running a channel or something
The thumbnail had me thinking of prospering over simply surviving.... Not at all thinking that surviving would be the best outcome of the situation... Good topic...
Survive and thrive. That’s what we wanna do in this community.
Great points. Practicing survival skills is fun but fighting for my life in an unplanned situation would actually be terrible.
And I think maybe there could be a 4th category: something like you’re out in a situation that you have skills for but you never planned on. Something like your vehicle getting buried in snow in a surprise white out or a plane emergency landing in a remote area.
Great thought provoking scenarios Tim. Prepare, prepare prepare, you can never over prepare. Scenarios vs reality are very different things when your life depends on it! Great discussion!
Thanks. Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching.
Great point. Totally agree. Not to mention what other stressor will take place and if responsible for others lives. Like Mike Tyson said "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." I think this should be the mental mindset and forefront of survival videos. Being in t military we trained and did every possible scenario over and over again. Yet still once we received contact things did not always go as we trained immediately band sometimes it did. However, mentally we knew what situation we were in and we were prepared to do. You have to train like you are surviving or in that mindset.
Well said, and well stated. Your question was a great one and my answer is this: for myself, I believe my view of "survival" is very realistic in that I know that in an absolute chaos, no rule of law, "end of world as we know it" situation, I'm most likely not going to make it through for various reasons. I'm ok with that, as I know where my end Destination is, and I know Who it is that holds me in His hand. That being said, I do my best to be realistically prepared to cover those situations in which I may find myself, while still being ready to help others if I can do so, as opposed to the "zombie apocalypse/turn my home into a bunker and hold off the hordes/me first, middle and last and the heck with everyone else" type of scenario. I definitely appreciate you bringing up the very real point that a true "survival" situation would be more horrible than Hollywood.
Thanks for that thoughtful feedback.
I'm firmly in the camp of learning survival skills is fun, but I don't ever want to find myself in that scenario if I can avoid it
I totally agree that it fun to test yourself to see what you’re good at and what your weaker points are. I have hiked some sections of the AT, and luckily never experienced injuries, illness or severe weather. That would not have been fun. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching and for the comment.
Survival is not fun!!! But knowing how to handle yourself and protect my life and the life of mine I know we are on the needles end far as society. When the SHTF I want to know I will be alright
I used survival videos to help me prepare and to gain insights and skills.
Survival a place we don’t want to be but should train for such a situation happens. The more time you spend in the bush the chances are increased for that to happen, but I think some basic survival skill would be good for anyone to have, good video
Great video. I've been lost in the jungles of my country (India) a couple of times and both times the cooler heads of a few of us helped us to get out of the situation.
Those with the temperament for "survival" rarely go to scenario 3 in my experience and stay within the limits or situations they can control.
Having said that, I always love to explore new terrain and when preparedness is a way of life, you cannot help but think of how to stay in control of yourself and navigate through uncertain circumstances.
Mindset is so important. I’ve got a video coming out in a week or so about how to stay in the right mindset physiologically.
having practice and a decent kit you know how to use makes the regular fun stuff more fun, camping, hiking, hunting, exploring, geocaching etc. the survival stuff isnt the fun stuff its the safety net for something going wrong while doing the fun stuff.
So, I have some thoughts.
I would rather be is a community that needed to survive rather than solo.
This would greatly increase my odds.
I do bring fishing / hunting skills for a longer term situation but due to health restrictions quick response for short term solo stuff would be extremely challenging
Absolutely. Just saw Field craft survival talk about the need for our community.
Absolutely! I would more bring medical skills (as an EMT) and supplies rather than the "RARRR!!! I AM LOADED DOWN WITH WEAPONS AND KILLING SKILLS" that so many seem to believe is an inherent part of survival. Like you, I would sooner band together with like minded people and work together than be the Mad Max/Lone Wolf type.
intelligent humble realistic recognition of self health and capability and knowledge put into training scenarios just like you meant , fun not believing one person can survive without all that things we can buy walking 10 minutes to the stores from food to clothe to soap to aspirine , break a finger and how much percentage your skills drop and all varies on the geographical area and spots
I have my survival backpack. With common tested survival gear. I'm not lone wolfing it. Surviving alone is horrible. I test my gear camping. But I agree I don't want too have too survive. I'm getting better at Bushcraft too make it easier.
Survival is all of the above with different conditions. A person or family needs to be prepared for all of them in my opinion.
Train and prepare are important, and big fun. I think ones mindset is maybe the most important thing for when it gets realy life or death.
Nice food for thought vid, thanks 👍
My next video starts to talk about exactly that
I don’t think I have a realistic or idealistic view on survival. I’m fairly down the middle I’m guessing I’m more prepared and would have it easier than a lot of people but I don’t think it would be fun especially after a few days if ever because of the stress it would bring.
Prepare for the worst hope for the best. EDC kit is most important because you don’t know when disaster will happen. Leatherman, a lighter and a single wall stainless water bottle are the 3 things I never leave without (wallet keys phone are a given)
Good word. I’ll be doing an EDC video and series quite soon.
Real survival SUCKS. It always happens when you’re least prepared, and out of the blue. You’re either separated from your gear, or you’re hurt and can barely move to use it. What most folks call a survival scenario is just inconvenient camping.
You want a survival situation to be scary that way you take it serious enough to make the proper decisions to survive.
Awesome video and thank you for the knowledge
You bet
Have been turned around once or twice. Not a good feeling. All turned out OK. But makes you appreciate the things you practice. 😊
Very true!
Great video Tim, as I live in Honolulu, trying to practice survival skills is quite difficult in this city so I tend to watch a lot of UA-cam to get ideas on different skill sets, but yeah you definitely hit the nail on the head, I definitely wouldn't want to be in a survival situation, on a small island it would be really bad, I can prepare for a hurricane but anything bigger than that, uhhhh, nope 👊👍🤙🤙🤙
You always heard that sharks were your friends but when you go to feed them you discover that they see you as their dinner.
Very good content!
Agree! Training and safety are paramount!
As one of your followers for close to 5 years, get back to knife reviews and outdoor training videos. Please!
A lot of uswant to see the chopper hatchets etc. do some condor machete reviews please.
Show some new model ESEE. Put them to use.
No more flash light reviews please!! Lol!
Much respect to you my Brother! Keep up the great content!
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching.
How do I view survival? When the goal of survival is to survive, eventually you will fail, because death the inevitable consequence of living.
Real survival situation means that you screwed up on multiple things and you have to hope you make it through till rescue happens.
Unfortunately that’s very true.
Share your thoughts - what jumped out to you from this video?
Being prepared increases your chances, but there are so many variables that could happen. Food poison, snake bite, injuries, some of survival will be luck.
Absolutely
Very few survivalists ever mention astronomy/celestial navigation and/or meteorology.
Interesting observation. I think you’re right about that.
Great reminder. Too many people think they can fight until they can't run 100 yards. Survival is the same.
Agreed. If you can’t take care of your body, it’s gonna be hard to survive. That’s a challenge for many of us, but a good reminder.
Most people, even most so called preppers have a very unrealistic and idealistic view on what a disaster would look like
Unfortunately, I think you’re right, my friend
That's a great video with an approach and understanding of survival skills that makes perfect rational sense. Right now, I'm starting to purchase various items to outfit a bug out/hiking/camping/survival bag and am wondering what type of material is best when choosing a backpack. Synthetic, like nylon, or a canvas material? What's your opinion/experience regarding this type of choice?
Just my opinion but, buy the bag last. If you buy it first, don't fill it up just because there's more room. 10 C's first, sir.
I think synthetic is the best because in most cases it’s very strong and also very light. Canvas is super solid, but I don’t find the weight is worth it.
@@EverydayTacticalVidsThanks. I was thinking the same thing too.
@@charlessalmond7076Thank you very much for your extremely helpful input. I didn't think to check the 10 c's. I'll be doing that next.
Its important to know how , and what to do . Have some things to work with . But you want to get out of those conditions as fast as possible . That is why 72 hours is the accepted standard . If you think your going to be a murderer and preditor , your going to set yourself up to die . If you think your going to just shoot your way in or out of situations . Your a danger to society right now . Again you will die that way sooner rather than later . Being armed , but staying away from people as much as posssible is a better idea .
Two things.
First, everyone who goes out into the wild should be able to walk out into the wild with nothing but the cloths on their back or even butt naked and survive for at least 1 to 3 months the way our ancestors used to because crap happens and you could find yourself out there when something like a flash flood just washed all of your equipment away or a bear destroyed it all. That is real survival, where you pick up some rocks and wood and start making the tools you need to survive.
You learn that from studying archaeology to learn how ancient people lived as hunter/gathers all over the world.
If you can do that, you can survive almost anything.
Second, these people who have fantasies about hiding in the wild because the government went south should know that I was in the Air Force during Nam, I was trained in espionage, and we can find anyone hiding in the wild and you could not believe how easy it would be. If you use anything that uses electricity like an electric watch, we will find you. If you use a camp fire, even inside of a cave, we will find you.
You are better off in a militia fighting for your freedoms and rights than hiding where we can pick you off one at a time, when we choose.
Those two things are reality that everyone should know.
I hope I'm never in the predicament
Indeed!
Please do some Worktuff!
Just think if you buy all the survival gear you will not get far after all you are not a pack horse I find that that the best plan is to rely on you child hood the play that got you this far and don't be spoiled I've had people tell me the wont eat oysters but they could be life or death their are people that don't know how to fish clean fish or don't like fish you have to know these thing or you will not survive learn how to clean rabbit's you have to change from going to the store to hunter gather survival depends on it
Still waiting to see the 'survival' video when the person has a legitimate compound fracture after falling whilst hiking of the ankle, wrist, arm etc going around collecting fire wood, baton it, build a shelter etc. The same when the weather turns fatal. I've been 'doing' survival training for well over 35 years, never needed it, and the reality of current day situations is that if you have an PLB or all weather signalling device combined with prior notification of someone of your planned routes, bug out EV's, and timings then most people will be okay. The exception to those are extreme situations like a wild fire tearing up up a mountain etc, but in that case someone isn't stopping to build a shelter etc. Most 'survival' training is based on WW2 E&E which has been refined by both the military & civilian sectors and has become a huge marketing opportunity. Now what most people call 'survival' skills should be pushed into bushcraft/fieldcraft & general living off the land techniques categories. PP&PPPP; if you know what that means then you'll be okay. The last thought is one that is rarely discussed but seen in shows like Naked and Afraid and it is the most important; the mental conditioning & resilience of the person. Walking out into the bush when you have planned it, does not psychologically prepare someone for the SHTF moments & every person thinks they will cope mentally until they break their leg miles from help, get stuck in a blizzard with hypothermia or in the desert with no water & heat blazing down on them. See how far a pocket survival kit gets a person in those situations.
Funny you mention that. I was thinking of a video with me not using one arm just to show how challenging it would be.
@@EverydayTacticalVids That would be good but it still wouldn't replicate the pain at every move.
You see two guys holding hands and your wife tells you not to be rude again.
Why? Click bait.
???
@@EverydayTacticalVids the answer to your question as to why you would say "Survival is bad."
Channel is so borning now, heres my unsub bud
Sorry to see you go.
Thank you for making sure you let us all know why you were stamping your feet and leaving. Bye now.
