God bless you all❤much love and respect from central Ohio. As always love every video cause always stimulating and informative.
Mentality of a homeless person, intuition & imagination plus initiatives. They have less to carry because they know where to go & seek shelter to rejuvenate, recharge, rehydrate & re-set. Seeking vantage point is a great idea but waltzing into a high-end area is debatable, they have the best guns & can be not so welcoming to "non members". There's a rock song that goes, "run to the hills, run for your life" Great chat as usual mate. Stay safe. Stay You. Cheers cobber.!
That’s why I train in the streets as a homeless, it works. You get to know the ways of the streets plus the places themselves very well. I also do bug-out city evasion dry-runs, mostly for fun and exercise. Most preppers have no idea because they never tried anything like that.
We're in our mid 60' , I could never run away from my wife, daughters, grandkids. My body is wore out from 50 plus years in construction. But I can hide and provide protection for them that will make the enemy run from them so they can get to safety.
I travel for work 75% of the month. I fly to cities all over the country. Cities such as Louisville, Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Detroit Dallas, Salt Lake City…you get the point. Most often, the location I work at is in the city I fly to. My company recently imposed a no weapons policy in the company handbook. Previously, I would sometimes bring my CCW. My main prep items I keep in my work computer bag are a TQ, boo-boo kit, compass, two flashlights, bandanna, lighters, other EDC items, and a LifeStraw water bottle with filter. Other than that, I’m completely reliant on what I can scrounge on my way out of a city. I try to take note of two main things…what would be a shortest way to get started walking home. And what would be the nearest big box store that I could grab some supplies on the way. Other then that, almost anything, I would have to figure out on the fly.
The "No longer a dollar" store sells a small, but surprisingly well built, nylon crossbody bag that is easy to put under a puffy, hoodie, pullover that can easily hold a space blanket or two, some string, candy bar, etc. Makes you look like you are just moseying down the street. If you wear a hard (cowboy) hat, there's room in the crown of it too.
I think it makes a difference male vs female as well. As a woman, I'm going to avoid areas that you might be able to safely walk thru. So no industrial areas, no "bad parts of town". I'd be walking thru neighborhoods, inside tree lines, along the edges of fields, etc. Also, we've planned ahead and many of my friends have an informal agreement to act as "safe houses" for others we know in case of emergencies now or if SHTF.
As a Ling time hiker please remember 2 things. 1) never wear shoes you can't RUN IN . That means no heels. 2) a skirt is easier than pants for ladies. For numerous reasons. Easier access to weapons and ability to pee literally in public ( don't wear panties) without being seen anymore than a guy.dont forget to lift the skirt to keep from getting it wet.
Hi Jason! I’m a “Sassy Senior “ from South Florida. So far I’ve got bug out bags for my family of 4 as well as some preps for staying home in my condo. Not that I’ve got everything done, I’ve still got to learn “how to” on a lot of equipment so I’m going to schedule a weekend away to test the stuff out and see if there are any kinks to fix…..also need to do more to secure my condo in case I might have to hunker down there…..Sooo much to learn and do! Thanks for all you do to help us get prepared: your ideas are very helpful and have helped me figure out what will work and what won’t, so KEEP UP YOUR GREAT WORK. Sending 🤗🤗🤗🤗 hugs to you and your photographer/wife ( who also does a great job of filming! ✨✨✨✨✨
Great advice, particularly for those traveling on foot. That being said, there is NO way I would try to leave a city or even most urban areas using a bike, Ebike, or scooter. Maybe a motorcycle, but depending on the area, maybe not. Given the way people have been acting ~ for years ~ in cities (and more and more in large towns), I can't see a way to justify dying because someone else wanted what I was riding. The same goes for losing any supplies I may be carrying if I happen to survive losing my ride. I can say that IF I lived in a city and/or large town that is already prone to gangs, drug activity, and/or civil unrest/violence I would be covering my vehicle windows with security film (legal or not!). I would probably have a cattle guard or guardrail bumper installed. I would likely have lots of fix-a-flat and at least 2 spares, probably 4, in the vehicle already. I would have paper maps (state and county) for my own state and the surrounding states (even if I had a destination in mind ... in case my preferred direction was blocked). Our standard 'go kit' already contains items such as first aid, wool blankets/socks/hats, gloves, basic tools, Silcock keys, glotoobs and glow-tubes, headlamps, wind up radio, walkies, cb/ham/antennas, mess kit, camp stove and fuel tabs, water filtration, snares, etc. This all fits easily into a single 1x1x3 divided container. We have a small tent, tart, tent states, cordage, zip ties, fire starting items, folding shovel and saw, etc. packed together. We have both binoculars and basic night vision, weather appropriate outerwear, hiking boots, and basic clothing changes in another tote. These, along with our "go" emergency food/pet food take up another 1x1x3 container. All are ready to toss in our vehicle in under 5 minutes. What does stay in our vehicle is a custom built cage for our cats, and a fitted waterproof cover that both the cage and our dog can hang out on without us fussing about a mess. On one floorboard (in front of the cage) is a tote with wipes, paper towels, cleaning spray, and litter ... plus bowls for food and water. Now, our 'go' plans really only include things such as fire/flood/train derailment ~ and getting out of the danger zone until it is safe to return. We have no current bug out location beyond someplace that has water we can filter as necessary. Given the option to shelter in place and take our chances long term, that is really all we've got. I have ZERO interest in joining possibly hundreds of thousands of 'refugees' (whether by choice or just stranded) killing each other for a can of corn or a pack of jerky. On the roads, there will be NO way to avoid this after the first 24-36 hours. Any wide spread event means individual towns may well be barricading themselves and using lethal force to keep strangers out. The military may have their own road blocks and such in place. Bridges and tunnels may become natural barricades that are manned 24/7. All of this being dependent on how severe the issue is tells me that without a solid destination (preferably one that has someone there now to keep wanderers from setting up camp there and turning us away if/when we get there) means staying put is the best option for 'us'.
Nice plan. I have a large winter tote, large summer tote that we rotate, and an all yr. round tote that stays in my van. I saw you had wipes and no T.P.. Nicely done. I have a come along, red flags, 8 battery operated signal flares that you see on TV. Air inflator, a NOCO, sweatshirts, heavy duty winter coats, I also keep a bullhorn with siren mode in my van, many flashlights, and spotlights.
@@trajan6927Well, I do have a bag of those compressed tp tabs as well. Two humans and 3 critters can make big messes sometimes. We have a small air inflator, winch, and some other things that are mostly standard items for us as well. I'd be happier with a truck camper than the tent to be honest, but haven't found what we want yet. Given that our goal is to keep us comfortable for short term events, the camper would be more practical, give us a bit more as far as options and storage, and make life a bit easier with our animals.
Great ideas. Carry flashlight, maybe protein bar, water bottle you can attach to waist or belt, 4way water key. I think a small sling bag or torso bag with a few essentials like 5 Cs of survival modified for urban environments. Hope everyone is doing well and have a safe good week. 😊
Excellent video! I really appreciate your advice. I live in Chile, a seismic country and I would love to see a video about earthquakes in an urban area. Keep up the good work!
lol so if I'm picking up what you are putting down, that my 1988 Dodge Ramcharger with ear bleeding loud exhaust, may draw attention. Gotcha! Sincerely great video.
Yea my hunting buddy likes loud powerful sounding trucks. I like quiet trucks. His truck alerts every elk within 50 miles that we are coming. Mine, you practically run them over while driving down the road.
Ive 100% been looking at kei trucks. Even dead stock they're maneuverable. Great mpg, same standard box sizes, optional dump beds, a/c and heat, optional 4x4 and relatively cheap work horse. Also they have a huge customization and aftermarket support. I really want to buick 3800 swap, 4x4, lift kit and bumpers and make it a overlanding rig/farm toy.

This is good stuff. Maybe make another one called urban metropolis. You're not running out of Chicago in ten minutes. Depending on where you are, it could take 10 hours.
That’s very true. I live near Atlanta and it’s a similar situation. Tough getting out there on foot which is another reason why I chose to live outside of it
Yeah, I chuckle when Jason portrays Blairsville as an urban area. I'm still in Gwinnett, east of ATL but have a house not far from Jason up there. 100 miles. The plan to get away from ATL is hairy. It's a beast.@@ONThree
Good video Jason and not to stray too far from today's subject but I'd really like to see you make some more content with Alan Kay. I think you two work well together.
This topic deserves more attention, I wish more UA-cam channels would discuss this subject matter. Especially for those with families or special needs.
I live in a small town and i agree with you. My biggest problem is walking in a shtf. Luckily I've set up my home as a bugging in situation. By growing my own food and raising my own eggs I can live here for at minimum a few years. I keep a strong stock of beans bullets and bandages. With my mobility issues, I'll have to go down with my ship.
Given your location, small town folk tend to be friendly and I think I would make some friends quickly if I found myself stuck there. I grew up in a very small town, but I now live in an outer suburbs of a city close to a 1 million for decades now, and it's definitely not a place to foster alliances easily. But trusting your gut, and using common sense along with courtesy is also a survival technique. Thank you 👍
Hey Jason how are you doing? That traffic circle looked Mighty familiar to me. Sorry I haven't commented in quite some time but I've been with my son and three grandchildren, training training training. I've been passing my knowledge down, some in the woods and a lot in the city so this video has hit home for me. I will not disclose my whereabouts but I will say I was not very far from you just a couple of weeks ago. Hope you and your family is doing well and keep the faith brother!
It can be useful to analyze what actions we would take and how we would prepare. We have trucks and we have trailers and they would be useful but I know it would Garner more attention then if we just left in a couple of cars but I think if there is an emergency I don't think that the unprepared will really have the state of mind to analyze things and those of us are prepared are ready to protect what is ours by leaving early or hiding somewhere until things quiet down. The prepared will not be easy targets but none the less people are going to panic and we just have to be ready for it
When you said where would you head 2 min. in I immediately looked to the small mountain in the back round.In my edc fanny pack I keep a can of tuna packed in water. Then I start out with a bit of food & water and have a way to hold water or cook something in.Food grade Hydrogen peroxide I carry as well for disinfectant for cuts or water.
Practical prepping, being intentional in every day Life. is always best. 4 guns and 1000 rounds of ammo won't always be most important. LIVE TODAY TO FIGHT TOMORROW.
One route to get out of area if need be is sewer drains you have less people in them. You need to know the direction of the drains you use. Much of that water is not deep at all. Manholes covers make sure you put cover back over the opening. A cleaning van with signs on the side most people will not think much of it cause it bends in.
They can block off main exits in or out of the city; but not necessarily creeks, animal trails, hiking paths etc. People always say railroad tracks, sure I guess but many people will think the same thing. Good content, thank you.
Good video, One point to consider In my experience, a lot of experts tell folks to BUG out and how to. More importantly if that is the plan, one must have a place to go pre-planned. Otherwise, risk being forced into a shelter and stripped of what is left of what belongings you brought with.
Yep, when I was "between homes" I often rested up in old cemeteries and shrubbery/trees at road junctions sleep during daylight hours and travel at night, nobody expects to find a homeless person sleeping during the day and generally I was left alone in my bivvy bag with poncho acting as sleet sheet.
I've seen a Chinese service pickup that is about 2/3 the size of that bad boy you were eye-balling! Super roomy and I bet it flies down the roadways! LOL
Have you considered having a winch that you could use to help pull the truck out of a bind ? I have to think that a quiet truck is very gray . Something that looks like a fleet truck perhaps.
If you have to cross a large body of water such as a ship channel or big river always have a heavy duty trash bag, put you clothes and bag in it and tie it up with extra air in it. I will keep your stuff dry and help keep you afloat if you get tired. Always keep some toilet paper on ya. For obvious reasons.
Have you ever seen what I call a suburban sprawl? It is not an inner big city downtown or even the neighborhoods within the big city limits. But in several directions moving outward it is just a grid of cities 80K-130K population, less as you move further out, but where housing developments constantly pop up. These suburbs are full of houses, condos, apartments, retail, restaurants, some shopping centers, a few malls, and several other necessary businesses. There are parks and recreation as well. It seems that most preppers are only familiar to what a big city is, a small town & then the country. I am further out yet still within this suburban, in a townhome, approximately 6-9 miles from it’s outskirts.
If you currently must, or simply prefer, living in large, dense, urban centers -- I hope you have advanced notice, are paying attention and are prepared to act quickly to get out. If not, you better be big and strong because you have increased odds of finding yourself at the mercy of someone who is.
I’m only a minute and a half into the video, but I was thinking about how you are dressed and how my wife would respond in the exact same way! With that said, I think I agree, 100% with you!😂😂😂
You mentioned your wife. My wife (we are older than you all) has had both knees replaced. Doing fine for normal more sedate activity. Bugging out or getting home on foot probably isn’t happening if much distance. Maybe think about a video on dealing with exacting that type situation. Thanks! Well…maybe you just did…continuing to watch…(ain’t no way I’m carrying my wife lol!).
The least minimum I absolutely always carry in my pockets is a small jet flame lighter, a small very bright flashlight (Nitecore Tiki) and a small fixed blade knife (Cold Steel Obake Skoshi) takes up no space in my pockets and weighs nothing. Without any of that, I'd feel pretty naked.
Running makes you a target to some and triggers others to panic which could again put you at risk. Caution in how you move on foot should be part of your initial egress plan . Love y'all. Head on a swivel. Keep Prepping, Prep Hard. P.S.: I stuff a handful of Hard candies in my EDC/pockets keeps thirst at bay and gives me a sugar boost.
Actually... I watched a lady who was the FBIs (I think, maybe CIA, I don't recall) concealment specialist. One of the strategies is to be unremarkable even if it means really standing out. If you look like a weirdo with pink hair and nose rings etc, people minds see the hair and jewelry etc and don't see you. They write you off in their mind and before you know it they have no better description than "The guy with the pink hair", which granted is hard to change but you get the idea.
Having an "Immediate Action Plan" in your head is for when you don't have time to make careful plan. At the recent post-game shooting, some men had an IAP of run towards gunfire and tackle bad guys. In itself a worthy IAP. But one of these guys was carrying a small child on his shoulders, and running towards danger. Your IAP may be : Get to car and drive or retrieve bags. Acquire Bicycle and ride away. Go to friend's safe house. Get to safe ground then think.
Something I have long thought of for cold weather/urban survival is a cardboard recycling bin. I keep a “universal key” in my vehicle, in times of SHTF who would possibly think to look for you in a cardboard dumpster? 😉
I loved how you stretched out the urgency of preparing for what's about to come and dropped the proverbial bombshell at the end of the video lol, anyways always love the content, keep it up buddy
The little food ration bars is the minimum I would keep around in my vehicle. I normally have packaged freeze dried food. Amd I always have a Catadyne Pocket filter also, if they're good enough for SF Reece guys, they're more than good enough for me.
I agree with your wife but I dress like you, Keen slip ons, jeans or cargos, wool shirt, flannel, belted up and wazu hat. I can get away with it because I'm an old grandma with a vest obsession. Hope your dear wife recovers quick. She's a keeper. Great video and advice as always. You all are like family.
Even if this wisdom is gleaned at the least. Listen up y'all. 👂👂📝. The truth of the "situations" at hand is... You're gonna be less than you think, and probably highly unfavorable for any. Be wise now y'all, please use this actual wisdom. 💎 Or try to win all the sword fights...🗡️. Choices.
The city of Columbus is uphill of what is called "the bottoms", which is NOT an area to mistakenly wander into. Additionally, Les Wexner's prize development called "Easton" is uphill of Minerva Park, on the other side of a river. They still climb the hill and shoot up Easton. Every weekend there's a gang fight.
Your location in the video: how would you get home on foot? (I’d be in the same situation FTR) - would you walk the four lane? - how long? - would you travel during the chaos or would you lay low?
It very much depends on the situation. Immediately after a big event I would take the backroads and get home as quickly as possible. Before people completely lose their minds. That why I preach that people overlook fitness in their preparations
I cant even imagine what scenario would have me heading off into the great unknown , with no plan , on foot or even a vehicle without at least going home first.
It would have been honorable if you told us the viewers that the medical pack was from Refuge medical ,,bear independent. Doing the right thing even without being sponsored sometimes is a good thing . Caring from the heart or caring from the wallet is Always your choice , I know my way and I mostly always go the way of my heart . Semper fi
I like to know what is the best way to store food in my truck being I live in Texas and the heat is brutal. Please advise. I'm going start packing a bag👍👍

Liked the advice to head uphill vs. toward lower elevations. Makes total sense and I appreciate your time and advice.
Thanks!
Except, you may need to go down for water. Water tends to flow downhill and in the lowest part of the valley.

Smaller towns will end up looking like the town in the TV series "Jericho" in a SHTF.
Use to love that show. It was a cool series
Watched the whole series of Jericho and I enjoyed it and gave me serval ideas and scenarios
Great show.I could see it really coming to that
Yeah one of my favorite series ever. It really sparked my love for prepping l. Wish it went on longer.

Yeah, I chuckle when Jason portrays Blairsville as an urban area. I'm still in Gwinnett, east of ATL but have a house not far from Jason up there. 100 miles. The plan to get away from ATL is hairy. It's a beast.@@ONThree
NYC is an island. If they close off the bridges and tunnels-which is very probable-you'll have to swim to get out. Same with Long Island.
Good video Jason and not to stray too far from today's subject but I'd really like to see you make some more content with Alan Kay. I think you two work well together.
This topic deserves more attention, I wish more UA-cam channels would discuss this subject matter. Especially for those with families or special needs.
Families complicate survival a lot. There’s a lot more things to be considered.
I live in a small town and i agree with you. My biggest problem is walking in a shtf. Luckily I've set up my home as a bugging in situation. By growing my own food and raising my own eggs I can live here for at minimum a few years. I keep a strong stock of beans bullets and bandages. With my mobility issues, I'll have to go down with my ship.
Given your location, small town folk tend to be friendly and I think I would make some friends quickly if I found myself stuck there. I grew up in a very small town, but I now live in an outer suburbs of a city close to a 1 million for decades now, and it's definitely not a place to foster alliances easily. But trusting your gut, and using common sense along with courtesy is also a survival technique. Thank you 👍
You’re right about that. You’re welcome
I hitchhiked the country for 4 years when I was young. Slept on roof tops a lot.
Good to know. I always appreciate feedback from people that have actually done the things.
Hey Jason how are you doing? That traffic circle looked Mighty familiar to me. Sorry I haven't commented in quite some time but I've been with my son and three grandchildren, training training training. I've been passing my knowledge down, some in the woods and a lot in the city so this video has hit home for me. I will not disclose my whereabouts but I will say I was not very far from you just a couple of weeks ago. Hope you and your family is doing well and keep the faith brother!
Welcome back!
Animals, dogs, wildlife come to mind and who knew life could be this hard❤
It can be useful to analyze what actions we would take and how we would prepare. We have trucks and we have trailers and they would be useful but I know it would Garner more attention then if we just left in a couple of cars but I think if there is an emergency I don't think that the unprepared will really have the state of mind to analyze things and those of us are prepared are ready to protect what is ours by leaving early or hiding somewhere until things quiet down. The prepared will not be easy targets but none the less people are going to panic and we just have to be ready for it
I always carry dehydrated water and a Bluetooth water spigot app on my phone
That could definitely come in handy 😜
Plaid and Camo is not tacky!! Especially when it orange plaid. If it was a different color (blue) I may agree with her.
Now, you’re talking. You get me. Thanks for the support
Great insight into getting out of the city. Thanks for the info!
When you said where would you head 2 min. in I immediately looked to the small mountain in the back round.In my edc fanny pack I keep a can of tuna packed in water. Then I start out with a bit of food & water and have a way to hold water or cook something in.Food grade Hydrogen peroxide I carry as well for disinfectant for cuts or water.
Nice. Sounds like you’re prepared
I love that ultimate urban vehicle!
Thanks 😂
Practical prepping, being intentional in every day Life. is always best. 4 guns and 1000 rounds of ammo won't always be most important. LIVE TODAY TO FIGHT TOMORROW.
That’s right!
One route to get out of area if need be is sewer drains you have less people in them. You need to know the direction of the drains you use. Much of that water is not deep at all. Manholes covers make sure you put cover back over the opening. A cleaning van with signs on the side most people will not think much of it cause it bends in.
I don’t think I’ve ever commented on one of your videos, but I watch almost all of them. This one is spot on!
Thanks!!
Great video. I really appreciate the advice you give. Made me think of quite a few items I need to be carrying with me at all times.
They can block off main exits in or out of the city; but not necessarily creeks, animal trails, hiking paths etc. People always say railroad tracks, sure I guess but many people will think the same thing.
Good content, thank you.
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
GReat vid.. been to that town a time or two...
Good video,
One point to consider In my experience, a lot of experts tell folks to BUG out and how to. More importantly if that is the plan, one must have a place to go pre-planned. Otherwise, risk being forced into a shelter and stripped of what is left of what belongings you brought with.
Stealth camp in the cemetery. No one to bother you.
So, true.
Except the ghosts🙂
Yep, when I was "between homes" I often rested up in old cemeteries and shrubbery/trees at road junctions sleep during daylight hours and travel at night, nobody expects to find a homeless person sleeping during the day and generally I was left alone in my bivvy bag with poncho acting as sleet sheet.
I've seen a Chinese service pickup that is about 2/3 the size of that bad boy you were eye-balling! Super roomy and I bet it flies down the roadways! LOL
Nice!
Great video thanks!
Good Evening ! Yeah, you look good. TAKE CARE..
Ha! Thanks!!
I pray your wife has a full recovery.
Thanks so much!
Thank you both for the video.
You bet!
Have you considered having a winch that you could use to help pull the truck out of a bind ? I have to think that a quiet truck is very gray . Something that looks like a fleet truck perhaps.
A winch would be a solid investment for sure.
If you have to cross a large body of water such as a ship channel or big river always have a heavy duty trash bag, put you clothes and bag in it and tie it up with extra air in it. I will keep your stuff dry and help keep you afloat if you get tired. Always keep some toilet paper on ya. For obvious reasons.
Great video see ya on the next one
I have the same bag, different color. What is in yours? Got a video link? Love the information you are providing.
Wolverines!
Yes!!! BOYS, AVENGE ME! AVENGE ME!
🇦🇺😎👍interesting
Have you ever seen what I call a suburban sprawl? It is not an inner big city downtown or even the neighborhoods within the big city limits. But in several directions moving outward it is just a grid of cities 80K-130K population, less as you move further out, but where housing developments constantly pop up. These suburbs are full of houses, condos, apartments, retail, restaurants, some shopping centers, a few malls, and several other necessary businesses. There are parks and recreation as well. It seems that most preppers are only familiar to what a big city is, a small town & then the country. I am further out yet still within this suburban, in a townhome, approximately 6-9 miles from it’s outskirts.
Her knee looks fine to me, maybe she is milking it. 😅
Well, she does dress him funny…
@@DJTruth_1970 well the vest does match the shoes.
Yep. I think she’s milking it and she doesn’t know style. She better never read this comment or she’ll tear my meniscus and ACL 😳
Ha! Calling out "sick" from work!?
If you currently must, or simply prefer, living in large, dense, urban centers -- I hope you have advanced notice, are paying attention and are prepared to act quickly to get out. If not, you better be big and strong because you have increased odds of finding yourself at the mercy of someone who is.
I’m only a minute and a half into the video, but I was thinking about how you are dressed and how my wife would respond in the exact same way! With that said, I think I agree, 100% with you!😂😂😂
Love that!
You mentioned your wife. My wife (we are older than you all) has had both knees replaced. Doing fine for normal more sedate activity. Bugging out or getting home on foot probably isn’t happening if much distance. Maybe think about a video on dealing with exacting that type situation. Thanks! Well…maybe you just did…continuing to watch…(ain’t no way I’m carrying my wife lol!).
Electric- or gas- bicycles are one option.
I agree with the Unknown
The least minimum I absolutely always carry in my pockets is a small jet flame lighter, a small very bright flashlight (Nitecore Tiki) and a small fixed blade knife (Cold Steel Obake Skoshi) takes up no space in my pockets and weighs nothing.
Without any of that, I'd feel pretty naked.
Running makes you a target to some and triggers others to panic which could again put you at risk. Caution in how you move on foot should be part of your initial egress plan .
Love y'all. Head on a swivel. Keep Prepping, Prep Hard.
P.S.: I stuff a handful of Hard candies in my EDC/pockets keeps thirst at bay and gives me a sugar boost.
Love what you’re doing!
I keep a pocket shortwave radio in my Go Bag.
Radio will be key to get news when SHTF kicks off
looks aerodynamic...
Great video
Thanks!!
oh yea. that vehicle is a perfect "grey man" transport. nobody would EVER notice you let alone, REMEMBER seeing you...🤣🤣🤣
Actually... I watched a lady who was the FBIs (I think, maybe CIA, I don't recall) concealment specialist. One of the strategies is to be unremarkable even if it means really standing out. If you look like a weirdo with pink hair and nose rings etc, people minds see the hair and jewelry etc and don't see you. They write you off in their mind and before you know it they have no better description than "The guy with the pink hair", which granted is hard to change but you get the idea.
Awesome to hear he's doing well I'm glad so many prayers were heard for you and carlos
Having an "Immediate Action Plan" in your head is for when you don't have time to make careful plan.
At the recent post-game shooting, some men had an IAP of run towards gunfire and tackle bad guys. In itself a worthy IAP. But one of these guys was carrying a small child on his shoulders, and running towards danger.
Your IAP may be :
Get to car and drive or retrieve bags.
Acquire Bicycle and ride away.
Go to friend's safe house.
Get to safe ground then think.
Does this mean we shouldn't eat M&Ms we find on the road? 😂
Lol. Nah. I went back and ate it when my wife wasn’t looking 😂
We need a Survival Dispatch skinny jeans decathlon challenge!
Hahahahahahahaha!!!
Love your videos. Keep em coming 😊
Thanks. Will do
I love that breakfast spot where you're at but gets busy there too and sitting in parking lot waiting.
I saw the truck & started laughing, it has a short truck bed (I don't know what else to call it). Thank you, it's good to learn what to do.
Thanks for watching
I wear a vest made from two quarter sides of beef. Provides food AND I look like a zombie, thus keeping people at a distance. 😃
Don’t tell me. You got the idea from Lady Gaga 😂
Good advice
Glad it was helpful!
Something I have long thought of for cold weather/urban survival is a cardboard recycling bin. I keep a “universal key” in my vehicle, in times of SHTF who would possibly think to look for you in a cardboard dumpster? 😉
Love the tiedyed hippy car.
I loved how you stretched out the urgency of preparing for what's about to come and dropped the proverbial bombshell at the end of the video lol, anyways always love the content, keep it up buddy
The little food ration bars is the minimum I would keep around in my vehicle. I normally have packaged freeze dried food. Amd I always have a Catadyne Pocket filter also, if they're good enough for SF Reece guys, they're more than good enough for me.
Man that truck was dope. Love the channel and content
Thanks for watching. Agreed. I’d look awesome driving that hot rod down the road 🤣
I agree with your wife but I dress like you, Keen slip ons, jeans or cargos, wool shirt, flannel, belted up and wazu hat. I can get away with it because I'm an old grandma with a vest obsession. Hope your dear wife recovers quick. She's a keeper. Great video and advice as always. You all are like family.
I like your style. Thanks ❤
A Silcock or Zurn key goes a long way to procuring potable water, if you're in an urban enviroment or getting out of one.
Even if this wisdom is gleaned at the least. Listen up y'all. 👂👂📝. The truth of the "situations" at hand is... You're gonna be less than you think, and probably highly unfavorable for any. Be wise now y'all, please use this actual wisdom. 💎 Or try to win all the sword fights...🗡️. Choices.
The paint job on that ultimate urban vehicle can help you blend in at a hippy fest.
Ahahah. That’s right!
It's the ultimate urban vehicle in Yemen or Venezuela. Here, not so much.
Yep, that truck is for sure a chick magnet. 🙄
lol. You know it!
I beg to differ. Im 6' 4" . 270 lbs. You will probably find food in my pockets. At a minimum crumbs. 😂😂😂. Great video brother.
😁
lol. I haven’t seen a Jeepnee, since the Philippines.
Having food on you saves time and exposure from scavenging for food.
The city of Columbus is uphill of what is called "the bottoms", which is NOT an area to mistakenly wander into.
Additionally, Les Wexner's prize development called "Easton" is uphill of Minerva Park, on the other side of a river.
They still climb the hill and shoot up Easton. Every weekend there's a gang fight.
Your location in the video: how would you get home on foot? (I’d be in the same situation FTR)
- would you walk the four lane?
- how long?
- would you travel during the chaos or would you lay low?
It very much depends on the situation. Immediately after a big event I would take the backroads and get home as quickly as possible. Before people completely lose their minds. That why I preach that people overlook fitness in their preparations
I cant even imagine what scenario would have me heading off into the great unknown , with no plan , on foot or even a vehicle without at least going home first.
It would have been honorable if you told us the viewers that the medical pack was from Refuge medical ,,bear independent. Doing the right thing even without being sponsored sometimes is a good thing . Caring from the heart or caring from the wallet is Always your choice , I know my way and I mostly always go the way of my heart .
Semper fi
Hi Jason! Just curious do you offer survival class's like in the videos you post or are they only for friends and family? Thank you!
I occasionally open them up to the public. Keep a lookout on my personal channel and instagram posts of upcoming events.
I like to know what is the best way to store food in my truck being I live in Texas and the heat is brutal. Please advise. I'm going start packing a bag👍👍
Freeze dried foods for sure.
@@SurvivalDispatch are not they heat-protected? I'm also ordering some online. Thank you so much for helping us prepare. We appreciate your survival expertise 👍🙏.
5 minutes in. Thats a zest rig. They sell at target and have mods at home depot.
thanks for the ideas
Most welcome 😊
Well it’s cute a little to bright for a escape vehicle.
What is it that they put into city water in American cities? How does that compare with water purification tablets?
80 percent live in city❤❤❤
Soros just became second largest radio station owner. Mostly AM
Really? Where did you hear that from? Definitely have to look into it
@@SurvivalDispatch
Yeah, he bought 200 (or so) radio stations
Lol
That M&M can be used to draw in more ants to eat.
Yes! Genius
The truck goes well with your shirt. Just saying
