I bought a bunch of sterno cans to heat canned food, along with charcoal. I found the perfect metal rack the sterno cans fit under from the goodwill
@@tryndoxme248 Who is going to have the nerve to come collect? Won't they be busy guarding their own stuff?
Your "poop pit" needs to be quite a bit deeper. After each use put some dirt on top. This does two things, 1. prevents splash back and 2. keeps things smelling better and removes flies. No garden? Better start one soon(there's still time). None of you appeared armed. I'd at least have five .410 single shot shotguns(you have five people who can handle such). Recoil is light and the shells can be reloaded with Pyrodex. 000 Buck and slugs are good for two legged and 4 legged creatures(deer, pigs)alike. #4 and #5 can be used for rabbit, quail, pigeon, pheasant and squirrel . As for fishing, I'd not worry about poles. Nets are the way to go, along with cages designed to pull in the smaller critters(crabs, crayfish and smaller fish). You have a very nice family. Look after them.
Nice job making a smokeless fire pit to hide your location. Friction burning some sticks into pikes will help fend off the animals turned feral.
It is ironic that the LORD has been speaking through visions, dreams and revelation that this is going to happen. It appears the day of an EMP attack has already been set. Message to America: wake up! Repent, believe in the Lord Jesus, be baptized and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
15 years ago my church did an event where everyone was encouraged to go an entire week without buying anything from the store. It was eye opening for lots of people and I highly recommend everyone try it.
Exactly.
meh, depends on the time of month. I tend to buy my bulk groceries (potatoes, onions, flour and mostly meat for the deep freezer). So we talking right when I run out or lol right after I went to the store wait a week?
My social security check is not near enough I'll go almost a 28 to 30 days without buying anything because I have no money I'll spend the last little bit of my money find to Tacos for a dollar 64 at Jack-in-the-Box
I buy the bulk of my groceries by the month, save for milk and other perishables, that I purchase bi-weekly. Been working on buying 1.5 times what we usually eat for food storage.
@@mithril1584 what do you usually buy? I'll get 10 lb sack of potato and a few bags of popcorn kernels couple boxes of Top Ramen and a bag of rice maybe some cheapest boxes of macaroni and cheese

Lol id love if my husband cared about stuff like this! Talk about a provider for the family!😍
I've been a prepper 15 years. When hurricane Michael hit us in 2018, we were out of power ten days. But were so well prepared that we found very few issues we couldn't handle. Those issues after were soon addressed.
That’s what I call comfort and security!! My ultimate goal as a long time prepper!! Long time before I even knew there was a name for it! God spoke to me back in the early to mid 80’s I was a young mother far away from my family it was only me my toddler daughter and her father who had some pretty bad habits and didn’t care for his young family much. I’d spend most my days keeping the house spotless taking care of my baby washing clothes out in the sink hanging them outside. We didn’t have a lot at all and often wondered what the next day would bring. But I spent the afternoons in a dark living room bc I learned to put heavy blankets over the windows to keep the heat out reading and crying over the Bible a couple of older ladies came to my door one day to share the words of our creator and it was exactly what I needed. The verses that I found were exactly what I needed in that moment. I had always talked about being self sufficient but bc of not having money to buy a bunch stuff to survive on I was more concerned about how we would survive another day as it was. I learned a lot during those days I learned how to cook I learned about long term staples I learned I could find cheap candles at yard sells within walking distance around my apartment I learned from other poor people how to survive and recipes from ladies that had learned from their granny’s and great granny’s how to survive in the south these were some hard times but what I learned was invaluable. God let me know I needed to prepare my house therefore I’ve always carried that with me . I have always worked but it was hard without a stable husband who cared less about working to support us and without a vehicle most of the time. I worked the best I could plus receiving state assistance always. But I kept my eye on bigger things knowing it was going to be coming in steps and it did I eventually came back north near my family had jobs within walking distance had babysitting near by so it all worked out. I eventually started a career in nursing as an assistant then eventually having financial help to complete my education as a LPN !!! I’m very proud of those facts it was work but I was a very hungry participant!!! I still prep but am able to do more as I’m more financially secured. I retired this year after about 30 years in healthcare shew don’t get me started in the changes of that topic. Anyway I listened to God and have and still prepping for what may come my way. What I have isn’t as big and expensive as some have but I started by thinking ok so electric goes off what do I have to provide what I need for that senario and just go down the line and test to see if you can provide comfort and security to you and your family. Anyway sorry so long I need to write a book!!! Have a safe and blessed day everyone 🙏learn something new today! New recipe that has very few ingredients can you cook it over hot coals do you know how to dig a fire pit ? Do your children know how to dig a cook pit and cook on it? What if you were injured or sick and it was up to them to keep the home fires going? Could they do it?
My family went 8 days without power during the Texas winter storm a couple of years back that us Texans refer to as “snowmeggedon”. We had generators, space heaters, and had 3 hot meals each day. Like you, the very few issues we ran across were immediately addressed after the storm so we’re confident we’ll be just fine for the next one.
As a native Floridian I've been through a lot of hurricanes and periods without power. I honestly don't know what the big deal is. 72 hours is nothing.
You should add videos to your channel teaching how to prepare
I am an infantry veteran and we live in the countryside on an acreage. We have a spring well, a deep creek with lots of flowing water, moose, bear, rabbits, grouse, etc. My neighbors are a mile away on either side. There are lots of wild vegetation to consume and we do have a small garden. I trained my wife and sons to shoot rifles, shotguns and archery, and clean game to consume, we are all licensed. There are small lakes nearby for fishing. I have a small HAM/GMRS radio for communications if possible. I'm not too worried.
I'm jealous. I'm pretty rural but we got a major base about 30 miles away. That sucks. All my neighbors are well armed , which might be a plus but most also hunt , which will suck. I hope to get a small lot in the adirondacks to hang at and to bug out to if ever necesarry.
K, KEEP ME POSTED!
But do you grow your own weed?
@@HamburgerHelperDeathIt actually grows wild and in abundance here. The moose enjoy munching it regularly. When the big bulls are docile we go for rides on them every chance we get.
@@reloadnorth7722 Sounds like paradise.
I did a 24 hour winter power outage practice run a few years ago. It was a lot tougher than I thought it would be mainly because I had to split a lot of firewood. Hauling the firewood to the house and keeping the wood stove fired up was also a big time killer. I learned a lot from that experiment and now I have 2 cords of split, dry, firewood on permanent standby.
Excellent work proving the value of a test run. Test and tune when it is not an emergency, then you can be cool, calm and collected when it is one.
Great idea. More people should try it. It can be eye-opening even for somebody who thinks they are prepared.
We did a 48 hour winter power outage practice after we blew a transformer outside our house a few years back. I suppose it was more of a "mandatory unplanned practice".
Best part is we probably overloaded it with our brand spanking new central heating system. We were barely a month into heating our home without wood for the first time in years, and we got plunged back in immediatly.
It was a good reminder not to get too reliant on the grid, and, years later, we still keep a winter's worth of wood split and dried in reserve.
Last year we lost power again when my breaker box busted. Took me two days to get what I needed and fix the thing. It was -20 Fahrenheit outside. Wood stove for the win again.
Last spring, I built some new wood racks we will barely use. This year we're adding some propane heat as well to serve as an additional emergency back up for the wood stove because I hurt my back hauling wood for the racks.
It'd suck to have no way to heat my house because I was too hurt to carry wood. Can't be too careful : )
If you can get a source of waste veggie oil, look into oil drip supplementation... we modified our woodstove to also accept oil, and it cut our wood consumption up to 75%!!! So, we went from a full day of falling, cutting and splitting once a week, to one day per month ;)
@@Great_Wall_of_Text We trained our biggest dog to haul a sled full of wood so we don't have to break our backs any more than we already do ;)
@AgnesMariaL Good doggy! I bet that pup loves the job : )
It's a good idea to do a simulation to see where our weaknesses are, what we are short on, or what we still need to get to be better prepared. Great job Haxman!!
Thanks!
😂😂😂
Loved the part when you said "I closed the door to keep the cold." But, when asked, "what's in there?" Your reply is "I don't know. I closed it too quickly." 😂😂😂
To keep a frig/ freezer coldish longer slide Heavy Clear vinyl (fabric stores, hardware...) Between the door and shelving. This will let you look but keep the "cold" from spilling out.
Tape the sides down and make 2 splits so you can remove things out. I throw a second very light weight vinyl over top again to keep it 'cl9sed'. You Can use Press n Seal plastic wrap for this closure as well.. For the Freezer (upright) take 2 old heavy sleeping bags, place folds on opposing corners secure the sides of the bags to the sides of the freezer. This added insulation with the vinyl will keep things an extra 1&1/2 to 3 days.
If we were your neighbors we’d have definitely participated in the 72 hour run. Preparation is always important and it keeps anxiety down. If people only knew, it’s better to have and not need than to need and not have!
I absolutely agree. People take our comfortable, modern lives for granted. While the modern world collapses and everyone freaks out and panic stocks, all the preppers and the amish and menenite folks will be A-OK!
@@mane0ne and the people who have been practicing looting the past few years
I wouldn't have been up for it 100%, but I would have been up to do some bartering.
me too
@greenwave819 looting is only viable in the first few weeks of a collapse, after that everything will be in extremely limited quantities
Us old people are like, no, we did that in the 60s and 70s.
It was called No Air Conditioning, and if you opened the refrigerator door, your dad yelled at you to close it and go outside. 😊
😁
@HAXMAN ask your mom, she'll tell you. Oh, and her parents may have taken her camping in a canvas tent, too. 😁
It happ3n3d in the 80s too lol
Yep I was born in FL in the 1950s. There was some AC around but mostly not. You sweltered in the doctor's office, hospital, schools. There was no AC until I attended a brand new High school when I was a sophomore, wow, was that nice! We got a color tv in time to watch the moon landing in 1969, and we got two AC units about the mid sixties. I live in KY now and our average summer temp is 85 to 95 and I'm fine but do keep the house at 77 or 78 for the dogs, they have fur coats on, and no, that does not insulate them from the heat. I run around in tank tops, shorts and barefoot as I did as a kid and I'm pretty ok, taking care of the garden and animals. But heat, gotta have it, it gets below 40 and I start complaining!
It’s great how your family can laugh together and you can laugh at yourself. I love you guys!
Loved the added humor made the 72 hour outage look like way more fun 😂 definitely something people should considered doing with their families and or neighbors!
I think next time you do this simulation, you get someone outside your family to call it without notice, like you just did on your neighbours. That would've been even more interesting. I did something like this with my bestfriend and my children, but for only 24 hours, it was a great way to see how well we used our 72 hour pack. I'm gonna use this as a discussion point and see if I can get others to participate in this with us. I'd have to see what hubby thinks because the man is glued to technology lol
Great idea!
@@juliabrown5948 💙🙏
This simulation was a great idea. My family and I unfortunately delt with something close to this scenario the summer before last in our neck of the wood's. The Sequoia National Forest to be exact. The French Fire hit a few miles from our home and to say it was a challenge is an understatement. We learned a lot from this experience and it wasn't easy. We chose to stay as long as we could and fight to save our home. I don't recommend doing this if you don't have an experience with firefighting or in field first aid. I was a volunteer for search and rescue for 7 year's and an EMT while in college. I then worked as a probation officer with juveniles until I chose to go back to school and became an autism therapist for children on the autism spectrum. My experience with search and rescue, a first responder and law enforcement helped a great deal, but it wasn't a cake walk in the slightest. At the time of the fire I had been prepping for 3 and half year's so my family and I had that in our favor to a point. 24 hours in I ended up packing all of my long and short term prep on a trailer along with essential clothing pet kennels and supplies and our most important possessions. I don't think those of us whom live in fire prone area's think about everything we've prepared being damaged by a fire. The only reason I thought to pack my preps is because the year before California was experiencing many fires and I had read a story about a woman having to start over and losing 7 year's of food preparation along with everything she owned and the thought of all the time and money she had put into her preps gave me food for thought. I wasn't going to lose all I had worked so hard to accomplish if at all possible. I learned from that story and had everything packed a certain way so if a forest fire occurred I could easily move my preps from one place to the next in a quick and efficient manner. This planned out decision worked in my favor. Other thing's didn't. We were without power for 8 day's. We utilized what was in our refrigerator, but weren't able to save everything. We barbecued everything we could in our backyard by the creek that runs through our property. We ate well those 8 day's so that was a plus. No eggs were harmed in the preparation of any of our food. Lol. One of my learned lessons were always test your equipment. I didn't do this with certain equipment and paid a heavy price. We went without cellphone service because of my costly mistake in trusting equipment and the sellers word the it would work if we had no power. Well those 4Patriots solar chargers and flashlights didn't charge in the slightest. We had them in direct sunlight from 7am to 7pm. They didn't charge and they failed us in our time of need. We had to depend of our friends that were firefighters, law enforcement and first responders to get word to family and friends that we were alive and fighting to save our home. We live in a small town where everyone knows everyone so it wasn't an impossible task to get the word out that we were ok for the time being. My suggestion is always test your equipment no matter what. I should've known better, but I got complacent on this particular equipment and took the manufacturer word for it. Big mistake. I also wasted a good $150 in useless equipment. Lesson learned. The faulty equipment has been replaced and tested a few time's. We were evacuated to our local lake a few time's then we would drive back up the mountain to our home and the work would continue. We were able to not only save our home, but the neighbors homes on each side of us were saved to. We drenched all three properties and kept a 24 hour watch at all time's and took turns as lookouts. It helped that we had radios to hear when the fire was more active and moving and when it wasn't. This experience really put us to task and was a huge learning experience. We figured out what our weaknesses and strengths were. We've made the necessary changes so we're not caught off guard like last time. I would encourage anyone to practice different scenarios of what could occur in their area and if the SHTF. You think your prepared well enough until your not. Practice makes perfect is a great place to start. Learn your equipment and how it performs in emergency situations. Work with your neighbors even if they aren't there. They'll be grateful that you did. Take care of one another and work as a team you'll accomplish more in an efficient manner. Stay safe and God bless.
Fascinating account of your experiences and I appreciate the good advice! Thank you!
@@susieroberts9745 : My hopes in sharing my experiences were to make sure no one repeats my mistakes. I really wanted to make the points testing one's equipment and having a few practice runs with said equipment and those living in fire prone area's implementing a plan for their long and short term food preps if a fire occurs. I've invested a lot in my preps and I've lost some of that prep this year. Over $500. in damaged goods due to an overpopulation of mice. My whole town has had to deal with this issue this winter. It's been frustrating. I even cried off and on for a few day's due to the loss I experienced. Most of my preps are locked in protective totes, buckets or #10 cans. I got complacent with some of my recent purchases due to life being busy and contending with a health issue. I'm fighting Hodgkins Lymphoma. My newest food purchases were left in the boxes I received them in and stacked in a small area of my room until I could get the product to it's proper place in it's respective storage totes. Unbeknownst to me mice found their way to my food and had a great time on my dime. I've never had to contend with mice before so I didn't take notice right away. When looking at the boxes head on there was nothing noticeable other than boxes in a small stack. No holes, mice excrement, etc. My neighbors and friend's were starting to talk and complain about their losses and questioning why there were so many mice inhabiting there personal space. Within a few night's I started hearing movement and got my reality check. It was awful. I lost most of what was in the boxes with exception of #10 cans or anything in metal or hard plastic. All of the freeze dried product was a total loss. Another lesson learned. Be aware of the complications and possible emergencies in the region you live in. I'm located in the Sequoia National Forest, Ca. We're forested/high dessert. We're prone to earthquakes, forest fire's, flooding ( which we just went through and got through barely) mountain lion, bears and rattlesnakes. Oh my! Lol. Everyone has their challenges in the area's they live and must prepare for those challenges. No place in existence is free from any challenges or obstacles. We learn to work with what we face in our respective locations. I never considered mice. I have now come to loathe them and I'm trying to eradicate them from my home by several different strategies. Once again good practice and learning experience. If and when the SHTF I'm sure mice will eventually play a role in most of our lives in one way or another. Hopefully they won't, but you never know. I'm now making sure I have preps that are affective against mice. You live and learn although I'm a little grumpy about having to learn this lesson in general. It hasn't been fun, but I'm doing my best to combat the issue. Never a dull moment. 😉
@@divergence_tiffanyramos4337 thanks for sharing your knowledge. I just left Florida a week before the hurricane flooded my entire town. The only preps I lost was a couple of mylar bags that got invaded by ants! (I didn't have them in glass jars yet.) Hopefully, we learn something new every day!
@@sueyoung2115 : Your welcome. If I can save anyone money, time and grief then it's all worth it. I'm glad your avoided the hurricane and had very little loss. Keep those you love close and stay safe. We have some challenging times ahead of us. Take care of you and yours always.
@Pam Baker Thank you for your advice. I'm actually the very few located in California that has a small basement. Very small. Lol. It's basically a cement room and a small shop accessible through the outside. I'm converting it into a type of root cellar/storage. The room hasn't been utilized in year's. It became a catch all for all of my mother in laws knick knacks and useless item's that should've been sold at a yard sale or thrown out a longtime ago. Lol. I swear what's in that room is reproducing in the middle of the night and making baby knick knacks. It seemed never-ending for awhile. I'm finally making some sense of it all and my work will benefit my family in one way or another. I've always wanted a root cellar or some type of cold storage for my preps. I'm excited at the possibilities. It gets really hot where I'm located and if /and when the grid goes down I'd like to have a cool and dry place to store my food.
I live in Oklahoma and it gets cold in the winter here. We had the largest ice storm in years. Our house heating system went down. I had to go 8 days without the heater for my 3,500 sq. ft. home. That was the soonest the part would come in. We were able to use the gas logs in the fireplace and if it got a little chilly, I have two ovens, I would fire up the ovens and leave the doors opened. We didn’t leave them unattended. We all slept in the den, it is closest to the kitchen. Put up some quilts to close off the rest of the house. Space heaters in the bathrooms so the cold did burst water lines. My family and I survived.
Thanks for an entertaining video. When my wife and I use to primitive camp, I ordered a toilet seat that fastens to a 5 gallon bucket. Replacing the bag in the bucket was not something I wanted to do. So, I took a saw and cut the bottom out of the bucket. I took my post hole diggers and dug a 3' hole about 10" in diameter. No splashback. I would dig a new hole every couple of days and there was not hardly any smell with it being that deep. We also through lime on top of it after each use. Dirt would have worked as well to mask the odor. By the way, you have a nice looking family and it is good to see you are raising them religiously.
I wish more people did videos like this, its going to put your plans and preps into practice and if I were your neighbor I would have participated with ya.
Thanks brother!
@@HAXMAN nah man thank you for the info and entertainment, I'm pretty deep in the prepping life but I still enjoy watching your videos and you don't a great service to everyone with your videos.
@@mortem-tyrannis So do the same scenario as if you was his neighbor and make a video. I'm a novice prepper and doubt my family would be willing to participate. But if you post a video I will try it as well. Nothing stopping us from participating right?
I'm gonna sub and wait for your video. 👍🍀🇺🇸
@@Rizik1986 I lived nearly 10 years off grid, but I don't make videos as of yet.
@@mortem-tyrannis No time like the present my friend and you already said you would like to see more videos like this. Be the motivation for others to follow suit. I currently homestead. I'm not 100% off grid but I can transition pretty easy as I've been prepping for a few years now. I figured I'd probably have it pretty easy and would have to kinda work to challenge myself. Haxman started the idea, you and I ran with it and I'm sure others might take on the challenge and just like that more folks would make more videos like this.
You probably have tons of knowledge to share others can learn from. Just days ago I wrote a small essay on a game chat I play because I love to pass on knowledge I've acquired over the years that folks can learn from. Be the change you want to see man. 👍🍀🇺🇲
You should make a video on how folks who don’t have their own property could survive. So many off gridders seem to think everyone can do what they can, but what about folks who don’t have property; or even a yard?
My husband and I are both disabled, and live in a fifth wheel RV in a public RV park. (On less than 1k a month.) We do what we can to be self sufficient, but it’s getting harder. Maybe you could make a video sharing tips on helping folks who don’t have access to as much as you do.
We have a little bit of space on a concrete pad that our RV is parked on, but there are rules about what we can or cannot have on or around our RV. I do my best to container garden every year, even try to make my own compost but there’s only so much I can grow and do where we’re at.
Because we’re disabled we can’t even afford to move. And honestly we’re only one or two rent increases away from not having that. So, how about a video series on survival and self sufficiency for people like us?
Hello! I suggest you look up Fernando Aguirre. (AKA Ferfal)
He writes about surviving the economic collapse in Argentina around 20 years ago. He did so in an apartment, and he has many suggestions for making use of smaller spaces.
I read his "modern survival" blog and bought one of his books. If you can get past his less than stellar grasp of English (he's not bad, he's actually great considereing it's his second language), I suspect you will find some useful advice for your situation.
He is a proponent of maintaining the highest level of fitness you can, after accounting for age and disability, and making the best of your situation through advanced preparation.
Not everyone can do everything. Able-bodied is a temporary state for everybody. One day we will all be disabled.
I'n my early 30's I suffered some injuries that will leave me limping along with a cane until I get stuffed into a wheelchair and eventually die. Ten years later I can barely bend over, and it takes me about an hour to get up in the morning. I still do what I can, but I have definite limits.
I became concerned about what I'd do if something bad happened at night when I'm typically in the most pain. This happened after I heard somebody screaming bloody murder outside my house at 2 am and I flopped around like a fish with back spasms instead of checking on my children.
So, using advice I got from Fernando, I spent about $100 to put battery powered alarms all over my house, solar powered motion lights in sensative areas, and a quick release safe next to my bed so I don't have to (literally) drag myself to a safe across the room when things go bump in the night.
The lights and alarms alone will probably solve most issues without my intervention.
On his advice I also stocked up on food and water in places most people don't store anything, though I suspect many of the less used places will already be full if you live in an RV, you might still learn a thing or two.
I don't agree with everything he says, but his perspective changed my mind about a few things : )
Read the blog for free, or pick up his book on amazon for about 20 bucks. They are basically the same thing, though the book is more organized and the blog has a lot of extranious information and discussion.
Whatever you choose to do, the biggest step is recognizing the problem, so you already have a good start!
You need to start a community garden in your fifth wheel park. Not only does it create a supplemental food source, but it slowly builds the mentality into the neighborhood that you should only be taking what you contribute.
I'm a campground worker and a full-timer. Husband and I have been doing this about 11 years now. Just a heads up, it looks like everyone will be raising rates again this fall. $1200/mo looks to be the new going rate for monthlys. As a backup plan, you might want to consider volunteering as campgrounds hosts for either the state parks or the corps of engineers. The work is super easy, the hours are part-time but....your site is free and you usually get lots of other perks, like free laundry and propane. Since you won't get any paid hours you won't have to worry about it messing with a disability check. Save some of that money for gas to get you to your next amazing adventure. You can use a mail service to send your mail to wherever you currently are. The world is yours. Once you get rid of that monthly stay fee, your finances will improve to the tone of $1K/month. Might be worth discussing with your spouse and looking into.
@@saureco I've seen that attempted before. The full-timers put all the work into it and the weekend warriors eat up all the rewards. Everyone wants to spray poison everywhere....just a hot mess
Look up rocket stove, solar ovens. Both can be diy and cheaply made. Awning on RV great catchment for water, if not a tarp will do. As for storage think buckets under RV, under beds, under seats.
That's what I love about Florida, I carry a 9mm hand gun. The climate here is super friendly growing vegatables. Our homes including my neighbors are CBS hurricane proof construction. We BBQ all year round, catching plenty of fish in the ocean, and a Generac Home Standby Generator. Including solar panels on our roof. That's how we do it here in Florida
This was fun to watch- and a reminder to make sure I’ve got things in place in case an event like this happens.
The sausage dropping in the pan - I died!!
Once again, a brilliant, entertaining spin on a serious issue to consider. Two thumbs way up. 👍👍
Thank you!
We bought an off-grid property and packed up and moved to the middle of nowhere in the Cairngorms of Scotland. When we arrived there was six inches of snow on the ground and it was still coming. It was May and the snow stayed there until July. It is beautiful if not challenging.
Well, when we arrived there was no water as the pipes froze (it is gravity fed) and the heat is run by radiator. It was cold. I bought the place because of the burns (fast running streams) on the property, so we had access to water, which we hauled to the house for the toilet, cleaning and cooking and filtering. Then that summer, the generator blew up...literally...chuckle. While waiting for another, we were without electricity for almost two months. Except for a little generator that we kept the fridge and freezer going in six hour intervals. It is still cold in the summer in the Scottish Highlands and having a wood burning stove WITH a back boiler for hot water is a life saver. We were able to keep the house warm and have hot baths, which makes no electricity no problem.
Living without water, then electricity was a great experience! We learned to do everything the old fashioned way and grew closer as a couple. We now have a functional home-grid with solar, wind and generator and more important, the wherewithal to live without.
Thanks to your family for participating and becoming stronger together. You are all blessed.
My grandparent's on my Dad's side were Mennonites...which is only one step away from the Amish!
You have stirred me up to research my "roots"..The Amish have been living very well "Off the Grid" for a long time...but that doesn't mean that it is easy! They are a hardy people. a.k.a.
TOUGH!
Others are going to smell cooking when done outside. I would suggest having a good cast iron dutch oven that you can put fire coals in to cook inside. Fill the cast iron with hot coals, use a small grate for the top and put your cooking pan right on the grate. Also, don't forget, you'll have about 50gals of water in your water heater, you just have to learn how to drain it safely... its under pressure right now.
Save your plastic shopping bags, they fit nicely in a small waste pail that can be used as a toilet. Put the bag in the pail, a small amount of dirt, and take the "trash" out when finished. You can take the seat off of a kitchen chair and put the waste pail under it so you can sit comfortably.. No outside vulnerabilities.
The Lord be with you all in the days ahead...
unless you have a fireplace with a flue open you can put your cast iron dutch oven in, cooking inside with wood/charcoal can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, even with an open window. Also, keep a fire extinguisher or bucket of water nearby.
@@lf4061 Not talking about fire burning in the house all day... And if you don't have a small camp stove and a stock of butane I guess you can eat it cold...
@@christiroseify or cook outside, or use sterno, chafing fuel, or even tea lights under a cooling rack set across upside down pans with a lid, bucket of water, or baking soda/salt to put out accidental flare ups near by, inside or outside. However, most deaths during power outages are caused by carbon monoxide poisoning/smoke inhalation, or fire burning buildings; therefore the reason I passed along warning to those reading your comment that might not be aware of the risks and dangers.
@@lf4061 Yes, all of which require inventory... So we'll save the hot coals for last...
Open any hot water valve in the house. Voila! No more pressure.
Oh my goodness I laughed so hard🤣 Poor Kim. Who knew splash backs could cause such a reaction😂
Hope Cameron's fever went away and she is feeling better. Thanks for doing this video with humor!
Thank you. She is better. Unfortunately I caught it. 😄
@@HAXMAN the ‘rona?? Ugh.
@@Meatball2022 No. I’ve had that twice. This is sinusitis I think.
@@HAXMAN I’m a double rona victim myself. First much worse than 2nd. Miserable any way you cut it.
Hope you feel better
@@Meatball2022 Thanks
God bless y'all for doing this together as a family. This was a nice "preview" of what the "average" family would go through in case an emp does happen.
This was so awesome! Your daughter did so well as a second lead. Your mom shutting you down, the fart noise… loved all of it! Bahahaha ‘splashback’
Good read. "One Second After" a John Matherson novel. It truly lets you in on the reality of an EMP. This video was truly fun and should wake us up too. Thanks for the lessons. 😊
The whole series is good. I don't think anything has been done to harden the electric grid since before it was written either
@@scottahermann that doesn't surprise me
Great books. Unfortunately, this family would not survive an EMP being this unprepared and clueless.
@@commonsence8223 They are more prepared than a great majority of the population.
@Sue Wiley doesn't seem like it. Their home is nowhere near what is required to be self sufficient. No land for crops, no close water source. Traveling to that lake is an invitation to being ambushed.
Both informative and entertaining. Love how your older daughter goes along humoring you. At that age my girls would have just yelled “Mom get out of my room and leave me alone!” 🤣
🤣
Who's your daughter, Cheech Marin?
This was really good. Thanks for taking the time to make this!
Love the video. Keeping everything light with what would be a dire situation. The best prep...your family are good sports. Prize possession right there. You are blessed!
You need a cistern of some kind to help your water situation. Or a manual pump well if possible. The water doesn't have to be potable, but being able to haul a bucket of water in your bathroom allows the septic system to continue to function.
until the septic gets full and then comes into the house. A huge outhouse is great idea.
The world needs more of this.
Thank you!
Ive been completely off grid for seven years. Basically own a small farm. I have several water sources. I have manual backup everything. Solar power and a turbine generators. Recycling everything i have compost to even house parts full mechani/machine shop. Able to run my vehicles of woodgassifier
"Ya'all have fun!"😅 My mom would have told you the same thing!
best to collect water that doesn't come off of your roof, lead is commonly used for flashing on roofs and that will poison your water supply. a tarp strung up with a hole poked in the middle would be a good alternative
I would think that after using that poop hole, it would be a good idea to put a little dirt on top of it to help prevent splash-back and also help if you accidentally step in the hole.
I think a sign that says something like "No treasures are buried here" would also be a good idea to help keep you from breaking your knee by accidentally stepping in the hole and it would also be a nice surprise for anyone looking for any "treasures" you may have buried in your yard.
😄
When I was in Boy Scouts (circa 1960), we had big events (Camporee) where hundreds of boys would use a common latrine. The heart of it was a narrow trench, about 6" wide and about 18" deep. The dirt taken out of the trench was alongside and used as fill dirt as the trench was used. By the end of a 3 day weekend, that trench could be 100 feet long before it was all filled before we left. It didn't smell and hardly left any trace we were there. We used 1x2 sticks to support house wrap (Tyvek) for modesty panels.
wood ash is the best or wood sawdust. the ash absorps the stank nicely. lol
Hmmm…..why did I get fooled into a $20,000 septic system…..dammit!
It's called an outhouse dig a hole about 3 to 4 feet across and about 6 to 10 foot deep. Then make a wood box to sit over hole and then cut hole in middle for your butt to sit, then make a very small fully enclosed shed.
Did you add a water filtration system and rain catchment to your stores? Just wondering. Love the antics. Hope you learn how to make quiche and discards with your bounty of aggs. Keep it up. This channel has become one of my favorite channels for homesteading.
Great video. Awesome that the whole family participated.
As funny as you are, this really puts it all into perspective if we had a real emergency. Thank you and your family for laughs and the reality check!
For toilet flushing you can store up water from a rain barrel in gallon jugs. As long as there is rain you have endless flushes. BTW, with an actual EMP, count on more than 72 hours. With the state of our infrastructure it's more like 2 years or more.
First time seeing your content. I love your sense of humor and that your kids are a part of it all. Your my new prepping favorite!
I just found your channel recently and I love it! Keep up the good work!
awesome, wholesome and love the family praying together.
Major source of strength
I’d love to see a collaboration with The HAXMAN and The Canadian Prepper! Always great info and both are hilarious!
I belong to a prepared and hilarious life-loving yet non-myopic community! I’m stoked 🤟🤟
All of the cool people are part of that community. 😎
This would be awesome!
I know this video is bringing major awareness to a very serious topic but your humor is gold! New subscriber for sure!
At 2:25 ... that's how you do it, "No, I don't think so, but y'all have fun." 😆
In all seriousness though, thanks for doing this and sharing, I am learning a lot from it
"And then, the man from the government said, 'I'm here to help'." Hahaha, I couldn't tell if that was a scary story, a tragedy, or a comedy. So much lol.
Every prepper needs to learn how to build a charcoal gasifier system. They are simple and reliable way to fuel a power generator on fuel you make your self from any biomass. No gasoline required.
WIthout the detergents/additives added to modern propane/gasoline, using a gasifier will destroy any generator in short time. BE ADVISED and beware of this. In an emergency, life or death, sure. They're consumables. BUT if you're just playing around 72 hours at a time, you'll be killing that generator just when you need it.
Gasifier for lots of other things, too, like cooking. Especially if they've figured out a way to can it under pressure. I haven't been following 'em for years.
Does the genny need acparticular regulator etc for this?
This was a great and very helpful video. Love the humor during a power out situation. I have now subscribed!
Great idea about using the truck to block the driveway. We have plans to drop a few trees and drag them to block vehicle access on the open areas on our property. Our tractor is a 9N and will run after an emp.
IV lived most of my childhood without power and with the rolling blackouts my country has I'm well adapted to it now. But so good to see others doing this. Always good to teach kids that we can live without power and screens.
You're a complete example of a successful nuclear family, God will look after you and lead you through the tribulation that lies ahead. You're gonna do just fine, I wish I could say that for the most of us.
Thank you
This is why the pilot is calm an the passengers are screaming. Preparing is a wonderful opportunity an show you what you may want to get! We just had a power outage an made me see we are so lacking. Blessings
As a survivor of several hurricanes and protracted ice storms, I can tell you to wait a few minutes, have some barrels ready (if you don't have full barrels already), and get all the water you can store up. After an ice storm, you can break icicles off of buildings. Take advantage of the water coming off the house and take a shower in it too.
I really enjoyed this video and the best part is that you guys looked like you were having fun while giving us a peek into what a real EMP situation might look like.
I live in a hurricane proned area and so I have always had this "survival ego" in that I've gone weeks without power multiple times... but the EMP puts a different spin on things: no running vehicle to charge your phone... no phone.. walking to refill your propane tank... oh wait.. can they refill a tank if they don't have power? How much dried wood should I have available? And a solar powered well pump is like an oasis in the desert... if the solar panels are in a feraday cage! And a manual well pump is gold in your pocket. Chickens don't lay eggs for long without access to water!
Yeah it would be a nightmare which is why our government should stop antagonizing Russia and china they would be the ones to carry out an EMP attack through a high altitude nuclear explosion.
I live in Tornado proned Kansas.. I can’t count on surviving in place in my home in any SHTF scenario, because my home may not be there after a tornado.. Those who think bug out bags are ridiculous have a closed mind.. For those that fear an EMP, I don’t think they understand the reality of their home could catch fire..
I have went without power for days just due to high winds knocking out power poles here, weeks without power after a tornado. Several years ago a 1 mile wide tornado stayed on the ground for about an hour and caused all sorts of damage and our power was out for weeks.. In a lot of ways it was basically like an extended camping trip.
I grew up with a friend in my group. We literally lived on the river. I believe it was my 5th grade year we built a shelter in 1 day using surrounding materials and only used a fixed blade knife, pocket knife and fishing line to build it. Was dry inside even in heavy rain.. We didn’t maintain it at all. Several times we hunkered down in it to let rain pass for a few years.. Although I don’t know if you could stay dry in it, but it stood mostly intact when I was a senior.
Hell yeah I know the importance of a bug out bag as well as supply caches.. I better, because my survival is likely going to depend on them. And that’s without people firebombing my home.
I loove watching u and your family!! Sad we ARE headed for a rough time. A lot of people aren’t taking it serious tho. Including my daughter and her kids. She is 9 hrs away.. all I can do is pray. God bless everyone here!! God bless America🩷🙏🩷🙏
I have to say you're refreshing to watch, and I have never purchased anything before to support. But this payday I'm going to buy a shirt. Keep up the fun and informative vids.
Thanks
Thanks Mark!
When it rains You would be better with a large water container and a tarpaulin which you use to collect the water, you have it set up before it rains so when it does rain you have the water being collected.
Also if you boil the eggs (if you have enough water), you get an healthier and more filling egg, and the water as it’s been boiled can be used to drink or make coffee with etc
If you collected water, the toilet will flush for a while, if you have a septic system not municipal utilities. There's a book called, "Humanure" by a fellow named Jenkins. In a long emergency, the information is gold. Cholera and other waterborne illness will derail the best EMP plan. Sanitation is one of the first things to understand.
Cheers to mentioning the disconnection from media benefit. This is something I think we should all do from time to time. I used to, but it's been a hot minute since I've thought about that, so I guess thanks for the reminder as well!! :-)
It's hard to do but so rewarding when we do.
Such a great vid! Thanks for sharing. Your kids are wonderful. I'm glad you find ways to make prepping fun for them. I suppose some type of rainwater catchment system into an IBC tank will be in your future. You certainly have many roofs to catch from. I also assume some type of covered outdoor kitchen setup will be coming soon. Both are very handy to have and will increase the value of your property. We generally don't have to practice a grid down situation - it happens for real several times a year.
Stumbled on your account. Love it. Love your sense of humour. I'll be watching more often
The number one worry during an EMP survival scenario: splashback! The struggle will be real! In Iraq, you were lucky if you got the first “go” after the porta-potty was cleaned. “Breaking Blue Water,” was preferred to any other time 😎👍🏼👍🏼
😄
Rather dig my own hole in the sand. Lol
A lil hepC for thee!
As a construction worker I have spent plenty of time in a porta Jon. Sometimes that blue water splash was a little warmer than the air during winter. Kinda felt nice lol. Always keep some extra tube socks handy.
This video is my intro to your channel and it was fantastic! Thank you for the fun content and timely wisdom!!
I tip my hat to this man and his amazing family. I’m a 58 year old retired Army Infantryman and live in San Antonio but on the outer limits of the city/area for a good reason. I live on a dead end street off of a main road so we get zero through traffic which is great. I’ve fingertipped with my neighbors and most are able bodied men with weapons and able to go off road and hunt. We all know what to do in event of an emergency and who has critical medical needs and we have a good supply of antibiotics and other critical meds that have a longer storage life. My concern is roving gangs and Molotov cocktails, fire is a huge threat and if I can’t breach a house for their items, I’d burn them out with a little bit of gasoline, problem solved! But once someone’s house is on fire, there’s a high chance the fire will spread through the area.
Also consider drawing additional water from fire hydrants, they’re on a separate system (usually) and will have a small amount of pressure. And buy a few bags of pool shock, it’s basically chlorine in solid form. Once purified, pour the purified water from vessel to vessel to get rid of the chlorine smell and taste, it’ll evaporate in the air as it’s poured. I don’t recommend using chlorine for water purification all the time but it’s a decent emergency option. You don’t want to drink standing water after it’s been sitting more than a couple days!
Also, granulated pool shock has a limited lifespan, so learn it and take that into consideration. Very important.
Love this. And your toast was authentic looking too. 😂
During the TX freeze, used 6 5 gallon buckets to store snow for flushing as well other large containers.
The camping stoves and tailgating gear came in handy to cook warm food.
Having some sawdust and old ash is handy for the "hole".
The things we have to worry about these days
Worth remembering than an EMP can happen just from the sun. Solar Flares that are big enough could knock out electronics across the planet, just pretty unlikely.
It's always been there people are just now catching on.
Just found this guy and absolutely love it. Thank you man.
I really liked, very creative and funny. Congratz!
Thanks for watching everyone! You can feed a HAXMAN child by purchasing a shirt at www.thehaxman.com.
Mom said no hahahahaha
Also CME.. coronal mass ejection can fry electrical circuits on the entire side of the earth that is facing it. One of those can get us and even if we are warned it can be a really bad year. I have birch trees for starting fires, the bark is wonderful and even works when damp. I built a rocket stove in a 3 gallon steel bucket, its kinda heavy but portable and it works pretty well, can use it as a forge with a bit of 'helped' air. I made it to cook with fire when its raining and to do some metal work on the cheap. It boils water fast.
Carbureted vehicles are still affected by EMP/CME because the electrical circuits in the car can or will get fried by the massive voltage surge. However, they are much easier to get running again, unless you happen to have the entire wiring harness and ECM for a vehicle in a refrigerator or deep freeze. You will probably still have to replace or rebuild all the electrical parts like the alternator, starter, and wiring.. replace if you have one squirreled away in a protected space. (aka faraday cage)
You probably know this but I will explain a bit of what an EMP does. The way an alternator or generator works is the same principle that will fry electronics in an EMP. Magnetic waves are cut by wire which induces a charge in the wires. Generators have a large bundle of wires wound up inside them and each is coated so it cannot contact the other wires. So you have several yards of wire spinning around past magnets, thats how they produce electricity.
An EMP or CME is a series of super massive magnetic waves and they will induce a large amount of current into any metal they run into. The last Carrington event (CME) was in the years of the telegraph and it fried the wires all across the US. It started many fires and burned some of the poles clean off... You can bet most cars hit by magnetic waves of that magnitude would actually catch fire as the smoke is let out of all the hundreds of feet of wires in them. BBBBZZZZZZT.. buh bye F150... So long Civic... Hasta Lavista Forester...
Smaller EMPs and glancing CMEs would take out the electronics because those items run on millionths of a volt, and when it puts about 10k volts into them they goes BBZZZZZT... Don't toss all the cellphones and stuff though, they have precious metals in them like silver, gold, palladium, etc. It can be harvested, melted down and used again if you have enough phones and devices to plunder. PCs have a lot of cool metal in them.. and lots of solder too. The solder isn't worth much but its still useful.
Faraday cages can protect against the smaller waves, but some are big enough that it won't matter if you have chicken wire around your golf cart or Prius.
Then we get the really fun and exciting cosmological event.. a gamma burst. Which comes from the poles of a super massive star going all super Nova (not the chevy), and if one is pointed at us, well stick a fork in us because we are done with that much radiation. No Fallout ghouls for you... just a slow painful demise on the dark side of the planet and a really quick one on the side facing the super Nova that might have gone off long before the earth even coalesced into a planet and life started growing profusely here.
That day you are here enjoying a amusing youtube video about a man talking about poopin in a hole with his kids and getting splashed, to that "Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right" and then poof....
Beans, Beans, there're good for your heart...
I got my shirt last week and wore it on vacation! It was a Big hit. I Love it!
Outstanding! 🤠😎👍🏾❤️🤗🤗
This is a fantastic video! You brought up not only some of the problems that we may encounter but some solutions as well. This also shows the importance of having either a way to manually pump water from a well or have a rain catchment system in place with a water reserve. The other real thing this one demonstrates is the importance of having a well-stocked pantry along with a productive garden/greenhouse to help out with the food issue (canning meat, veggies and even grains using various methods come to mind). We should definitely run scenarios/tests and keep notes on both successes and problems in order to make any needed changes before a real crisis rears its ugly head. Thanks so much for this and all that you do, y'all are great! :)
This is a brilliant idea....id have a tough time without my phone....love your channel and vids! Youre a great dad!
A couple of the items in my emergency kit are tarps and ponchos. Tarps are great for gathering rain water. You can even use them for water storage, like in the back of a pickup, which then becomes a portable water source, until you run out of fuel that is.
Just found your channel and absolutely love it! You are blessed with a beautiful family! That splash-back segment was just too funny!
Most people aren’t prepared even for a normal summer thunderstorm much less what may be coming our way. This tells me our biggest hurdle after a SHTF will be your neighbors and the classic marauders looking for their first easy victims.
Howdy Master of Hax! Thank you for putting together such entertaining, yet informative videos. There's an awful lot of content available regarding many of these topics, but until I encountered my first HAXMAN video, I had not been able to stay awake through the introductions!
Bless'ns to ya, Tedd
Thanks Tedd!
If you have a propane supply you should consider a propane powered fridge/freezer. They take a miniscule amount of power to ignite, but can keep food cold for a long time.
Just found you and subbed! Love your family, love your channel! Blessings 🙏❤️🕯🕊🇳🇿
Splash back.... God bless you, young man! I have so needed a laugh like that lately!! But seriously, there's a lot of good information in this video! Prepping may seem silly or dumb to lots of folks but it's better to know or have what you may need than not! And two thumbs up to your lovely wife and beautiful young ladies for going along with this!!👍👍As always, thanks for letting us tag along on your adventures! Take care, be safe and God bless!🇺🇸
Thank you so much Jim! I like to hope for the best but prepare for the worst.
Something that would be really fantastical for this video in particular. I don't know if there's a definitive list, but it would be nice to know the things that will definitely be impacted by an EMP, versus the things that will not be. I've picked up a few Faraday bags, but I've got a whole solar system and lots and lots of batteries and electronics. Knowing what needs protecting and what doesn't would be beneficial indeedly:)
The panels might, and only might, survive. All the inverters and battery chargers would not. Bateries would be ok if lead acid. The lithium based ones would be dead, they all have built in electronics for charge safety. So unless you have extra panels, chargers , and inverters, stored in a protected place, don't count on having solar:(
@@KevinSmith-os5yz - Unfortunately, solar panels will not survive as they are basically a series of photodiodes (semiconductors). Foldable solar panels would need to be part of your protected electronics in a Faraday cage.
@@g-whiz286 I've seen mixed reviews on the survivability of the panels. If the emp is far enough, the panels might survive while the other stuff is fried. They are somewhat more robust than an ic chip. That's why I said might:)
@@KevinSmith-os5yz - The problem is we can never really know without testing and testing properly requires a nuclear detonation to produce a real-world EMP. An EMP cannot be simulated in a lab. Even the effectiveness of a Faraday cage is theoretical at best. I worked in a Faraday cage (screen room) on ComSec gear when I was in the military. To duplicate that one little room personally would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. I hear people say, "Oh just pack your stuff in an old broken microwave oven" displays no understanding how complex and broad spectrum an EMP can be.
@@g-whiz286 agreed. I have solar backup for my house, and looked into emp protection for it. Decided the only way would be to have a complete system stored somewhere safe and not being used. Not tbe most practical solution:)
First time I've seen your content. Awesome man!
Oh man this was great, loved the humor. This summer we did go about 3 days without power, cause of some bad storms. Had to borrow a friends generator, it definitely motivated my mom to buckle down and buy some solar power...
Hey Hax - great education on a sensitive and timely scenario. We are similarly prepared here and we have the added bonus of 1,200 rounds. Best to Kim and the monkeys. Thumbs up
Thanks Chuck! Best to go buy a couple more cases. 😉
Awesome video. Hilarious and informative at the same time. I was watching it thinking i wouldnt have to worry, because we have solar and battery backup, and then i realized the emp would likely knock them out too….crap!
You need to place all in a faraday cage then you should be okay
What kind of faraday cage is really feasible for most of us diy folk!
This is one of the best videos I've seen about how it's gonna be like living in the moment when the lights go out...very Informative and Entertaining too, Thanks!!...New Sub 🙂
I am SURE UR already prepared! You are a blessed man with a blessed family. you're real. I'll look into AG-1.
And the man from the government said: im here to help! (Gasps) 😂😂😂
Awesomesauce video Adam. So glad you guys are ok.
Thanks so much!
Good information.
If your electric gate is open when the EMP hits, pull the pin on the actuator where it connects to the gate and itll close manually. Then you can chain it.
I love how it shows a basic problem that many survival preppers overlook - cooking skills are important! It's not only about surviving, but surviving comfortably. There is a lot of things you can do with an egg, fried eggs are boring in the long run, and nothing can be as deadly as lowered morale and boredom.
You sir are based.
👊
Really entertaining and informative. It is so good I had to subscribe.
Chit, I live in the Northwest. I've been through this before. You eat the food in the fridge first. You cook on the propane BBQ. At night you use candles. I now have a gasoline powered generator. Just turn it on, plug in the fridge. You can also charge you phone and maybe have internet via the computer plugged into the generator.
HAX, started watching you a while ago. Kudos! entertaining, educational, and epic awesome. Thank you
HAXMAN.... Love your videos Brother. Thank You for the informational videos.
We got to freeze in Texas in Feb of '21, so we had no power for most of the week and water supply was at half pressure, so we would fill the bins up each morning or afternoon and drain the water since we were farther south and the pipes in older homes are all copper. We ate the leftovers first and put stuff outside in the garage since it was 35F most days all day and colder at night. I now have a way to plug a generator outside so I can use an electric heat source at least for a couple of days.
