We are all facing our mortality, some of us are more aware of it. I've been dealing with systemic prostate cancer since 2006, cancer is a wonderful wakeup call. One that I would rather not have gotten.

@@PaulHarrellIt's none of my business. Paul. I had a neighbor who had cancer. He went to Burnt woods, Oregon and got some mushrooms from a local. He added 7 years to his life. He got tired of the fight, quit taking him and died a few weeks later. It might worth looking into if you're interested Bud. I can get a hold of his widow if you want me to and find out exactly what they were.
A weather radio is particularly important in emergencies because so many people die of exposure. Knowing when to seek shelter and hike another day can be a life saver!
I am so glad to see Paul. As others have mentioned, he looks stronger and healthier than in months. Paul, kick cancer's ass! When you do, keep Roy on as your co-star. You two make a great channel even better...
I look up to Paul,and there's not a lot of people I'll say that about today,He was,,,and still is a lifting inspiration.And this is a great video 👌 as always. 😊.
This sort of content is what I appreciate the most from this channel opposed to the deluge of 'tacticool' channels. Whether it's guns or just outdoorsing, Paul and Co. always give sensible, applicable, utilitarian advice opposed to the various lunatics you encounter online. My interest in the channel was cemented in a video years ago when Paul pointed out that if you don't have fire extinguishers or a dog when you consider buying a gun for home defense, you dun goofed. It's the realistic and mature insight that makes the difference.
I think that Paul is one of the baddest men on the planet. He’s the kind of guy that I’d want with me in ANY emergency. What a knowledge, experienced, cool and humble man ❤
16:20 Loud whistle, good compass and map of the area, tourniquet(s), pain meds, antibiotics, and a small harmonica. (Music can be a tourniquet for the mind, give comfort and keep hope alive. There's a harmonica in every kit I have and every vehicle. It's a great gift to place in care packages or hand out to anyone as a thank you instead of a Starbucks card.)
In the mid 1990's, I was heading for the "Drive-Thru Tree" in the redwoods. My vehicle conked out in the middle of Lincoln City. An officer and a bunch of locals pushed my van into a parking lot. They we're all polite and friendly. The people at the auto parts store we're helpful and happy. Same thing at the cafe. And the motel. And the bar. The next day, as i watched Lincoln City disappear in my rear view mirror I couldn't help but smile back at all those wonderful locals.
@@mingus444_gaming I haven't been there in years. I know it's still beautiful though. Tourist/vacation destination. Sits right on the Pacific coast. I did see a recent sad news story about a 69 yr. old man who was robbed and killed by a street junkie there. But I guess that's happening nearly everywhere these days.
Alas, it WAS a nice area until half of California moved in to retire. There is virtually NO open shore woodlands left that are not developed into condos and homes. Imagine, there are lots of homeless people there now living in decaying RVs everywhere............................elsullo

Good to see you Paul. As a cancer survivor myself, you can only admire a man who doesn't give up. Your looking good and sound good. I pray that good things are happening. P.S. your brother Roy is a big dude. Thank you two for everything you do. Stay strong, God bless.
God works in mysterious ways indeed!! I am dealing with pancreatic issues myself but not close to what Paul is dealing with. I was just sitting on my steps feeling a bit sorry for myself and I was praying for something to snap me out of my self pity. Wasn’t a minute later and got this notification, instantly my attitude changed!!! Thank you Paul 🙏
My dad had pancreatic cancer at 81. I understand it intimately. So happy to see you you looking so strong and stout, Paul. You’re the best. A legend. The love and respect are so obvious from your viewers. I hope you feel it. I think we’re gonna enjoy your wisdom for a good bit longer. 🙏🏼
Gotta say compared to some of his more recent appearances, Paul is looking and sounding much healthier and I hope this is a sign of good things to come. Best wishes for him and his family.
-- Not to take anything from Roy, but it's so good to see you back around, Paul. Might I suggest for your pack: Honey. Lasts for hundreds of years, decent first aid uses, you can eat it. I would also strongly suggest, in the spirit of bugout bags: always have a spare pair of shoes in your vehicle. And your everyday driver is a good place to stash your bag as it's with you or nearby pretty much wherever you go. Finally for a firearm. What I have packed now is a Diamondback Sidekick .22 WMR with also a quick change .22lr cylinder. It's 9 short, double action with a swing out cylinder. I carry 2 speed loaders in a pouch which attaches to the holster. 100rds of both ammo types, and I have one emergency bag in my bugout bag. The idea for that being, if I have my equipment deployed at 'camp' and have to leave with no time to pack up, I can grab 1 bag that will give me access to a small amount of critical items, that could get me by a little longer. Again, great to see you.
having your pack with you cannot be underestimated. Case in point - I went on a family holiday recently, by car, and didnt put a "survival kit" in the car as I thought it was going to just be a paranoid move, not needed, and the car was kind of full. So instead I shoved a small tool kit inside an old cloth into one of the body panels accesible from inside the car behind the trim, and I put a tiny survival kit in the car, poncho, blanket, medical kit ( have small children so need band aids) and a bottle of water. This combined with the tool kit and the radio in the car, would have given me some reasonable options if things had gone badly, but it would have not been anywhere near sufficient to get me home in a proper scenario. What happened? during my weekend away, only a carrington sized solar flare! something i have been wondering about for decades, happened while me and my family were away from everything else we have ready to help us out in an emergency..... Luckily it seems that we have come a long way since the carrington event and basically nothing noteworthy happened, luckily, id have been toast if it did .
Just saw the do's and don'ts with the police and had to see more of Paul. Glad to see you out and active Paul. Much to my surprise, you have my favorite Kipper Snacks in your bag.
That was 23 minutes well spent... Can't wait for the long version. I doubt there'll be a single wasted second on that video either. It's good to see you, Paul, glad you're still hangin' in there.
Oh what a great video guys. We have had a terrible week here in Texas, Tornadoes, hail, heavy rain, etc. Spent some time using my generator and eating pre-cooked foods. I did not really need the 3 day pack or a bug out bag. But this week and THIS video got me to re thinking and re "loading" my pack. VERY useful info here, so thank you again from RATTLED Texas. So great to see you both.
Roy here. Good to know you were prepared. Idea here is the disaster happens and you are stuck at work or in your vehicle or have to walk home. Thanks for watching.
In the PNW, I run a few choice things in my car trunk kit, the usual fire-starters, covers, cords, etc., but I do want to point out some notable items I think make getting stranded (snowed-in, or maybe a wild fire is temporarily blocking your normal route out): 1. 3lb tin of dehydrated peanut butter, with 1 gallon of water and campfire-safe measuring cups for mixing, 2. Hamilton Beach electric kettle, great if you need to boil collected water for purification, and can run off your car's 15 volt outlet, 3. Proper CBRN gas mask with wide FOV, drinking straw, and spare filter (I went with a Mestel SGE 400/3BB gas mask), which I've actually had to use during a forest fire, and holy-moley, I'm glad I had it, 4. Light-weight-yet-large-area 100% wool blanket (retains heat even if drenched, and is a natural fire retardant, also really glad I had it, though I was never that close to the fire), 5. KA-BAR model 1211 (serrated with synthetic grip. though I think recently the new 1211s are no longer serrated) with a pocketed sheathe you can stick a Swiss Army or 1990s Boy Scout knife into, which will cover many of your cutting needs, including opening cans. You could also put a nice multi-tool in the pouch instead. I also have tools to work on my car or whatever, a water resistant book on first aid in the field, chainsaw gloves (STHL), my Howard Leight ear pro in a hard case, universal battery charger with an assortment of rechargeable batteries, air pump, and a Noko GB40 jump kit (which I have had to use). The big challenge was getting all this to occupy the smallest amount of space in my trunk as possible, as I currently drive for Uber, and need my trunk for people going to the airport, or hauling groceries, so I don't keep any firearms back there, but I do have a handgun safe that tethers to the chassis in the event I need to go somewhere where I have to stow my pistol and mags. Oh, I also have a mini fishing rod, reel, and tackle box in the trunk. Like Paul said, you gotta tailor your kit to your needs. I could effectively rebuild civilization using my KA-BAR and what I've learned doing bushcraft over the years, but it's nice to have hard to reproduce items available in a survival situation. Don't deny yourself nice things out of some sense of machoism/puritism.
Happy Memorial Day guys. So glad to see Paul up and about and starting to sound like his old self. And not surprised at all that his pack includes Pop Tarts.
I’ve often said: “pre made kits aren’t tailored to your region or specific needs”. As an Alabama resident theres plenty of water and it rains fairly frequently so for my bags i didn’t pack a lot of water but i do have water purification tablets, sawyer straws, and single layer stainless steel bottles/cups. As for food depending on space: 2-3 bacon flavored spam and or one MRE. In my opinion the best small game “survival rifle” is actually a revolver and it’s specifically the Heritage Rough Rider, i like the manual safety, i like the ability to use a .22lr/short cylinder and a .22 wmr cylinder good for squirrel to coyote sized game. The saying “ammo is cheap your life is not” is why i pack a minimum of 300 rounds of .22lr and 50 rounds of .22 wmr. I highly recommend this revolver to anyone who has a bug out bag, get home bag, or hiking bag. I have the 7.5 inch version but its up to your preference. I did watch Paul Harrell’s video on the HRR .22lr barrel length’s but he didn’t do that same test with .22 wmr if my memory serves me correctly. Basically he determined that for .22lr the best barrel length was 4.25 i believe. However since i keep the .22 wmr cylinder i wanted the extra barrel length.
I am out on a bike ride and stopped for a hydrating moment, wearing your "Legends " shirt. Just happened to see your vid. It is so good seeing you on an extended appearance. God Bless you all.
12:00 I use a Microfiber towel now, but a beach towel is Amazing! Two seconds with a knife and its a poncho. Perfect blanket, especially for a child. Dries, cleans and can be turned into a pack. The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy was correct!
Paul, good to see you on the channel dispensing your wisdom once more. I'm an Aussie infanteer myself so it has always been good to watch your channel, though of course have always been more interested in your rifle and shotgun work than the pistol stuff as its pretty illegal here in Australia unfortunately. You do remind me these days of a bloke I knew out in NT who had been caught by a croc when he was pitching his tent - he managed to beat the 20 foot croc to death with the hammer he had in his hand, then remove his leg from the croc's mouth and tourniquet what was left up just below the knee, dose himself up on water and painkillers, then drive himself to hospital 4 1/2 hours to get himself treated. He never said never, and nor do I think you do. Praying for you bud.
I don't usually comment but felt compelled to drop a huge, huge thanks for emphasizing the need to make a kit specific to your region! Born, raised and still live in hurricane county and I've seen way too many transplants leave themselves totally in the wind being prepared with emergency supplies... For a blizzard!
Thank you Paul for all your fantastic informative videos 👏 I've learned so much for you down throughout the year's 👍 Lovely to hear the strength is back in your voice🙏 You're a Hero to all us Firearms Enthusiasts Worldwide. Thank you for your Service Paul👏 Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪🇺🇲
Good to see you, Paul. That crank radio is something I wanted to hit on. I live in North Alabama and in April 2011 we lost power, internet and the capability to do much else for a week due to a huge tornado outbreak. One of those survival radios saved our bacon with its radio reception and crank power. We could keep up with the local news channels broadcasting through the local radio stations.
Love it that Paul is looking much better! One thing I'm missing from these 3 day emergency packs is a compass and a map. There is no reason not to put a compass and a map of your local area in your pack even if its just a 3 day pack.
Paul, Stop breaking your parts. We need you to explain and demonstrate things. You are so loved, respected, and held in the highest regard by so many of us who have never overcome being awestruck by all that you do. Thank you for your class and wit. Now let's kick ass on the cancer. In the past few years, I beat two different flavors of cancer and I'm clean now. You are a STRONG soul with powerful character. I know you can and will prevail.
Was talking with some guys about fire starting and in the question of how important it really is a former marine said "Ive been in tons of situations where if I wasn't warm in the next 30 minutes I would be sick for the next 3 days" and I feel that is highly accurate for people who have no experience with exposure.
As a licensed ham, I'd highly recommend a scanner. Learn to use it and program in everything local and surrounding counties. Ham repeaters, public service(fire, law enforcement, department of transportation, etc) and gmrs. If it goes low enough for CB, also useful. Then a dedicated ham HT for comms. I've used it in California and Oregon during emergencies getting useful information that wasn't aired anywhere else. There were dry gas stations, stores with emptied shelves, ice freezers emptied, roads shut down and fires. Ham was a saver for me. It depends on the situation. Always listen before you talk and use discretion.
@@leftyo9589 I was just thinking to myself that this is either a video that was filmed a couple of months ago or Paul was has gained a little bit of weight and looks better than in previous videos. I hope the latter is the truth 🤞
This is perfect, i literally pulled my assault pack to the side a couple days ago, this is exactly what i needed to see. Im an Eagle Scout and veteran, but getting more opinions and facts always helps keep you alive. thank you !
Nice to see Paul again, and in good form! In my opinion, I never look at these as "3 day" packs, but more like "AT LEAST 3 days". For 72 hours or less, all you really need is some water, couple protein bars, firestarters, and a poncho, because all your really need is food, water, and shelter from the elements. That much can essentially go in a small pouch or bag. I'm talking basic emergency, not comfort. Anything beyond that is to help extend your survival if the emergency goes beyond just a few days, or to make it more comfortable. You don't really need soap and a toothbrush to survive 3 days, but it's sure nice to have. Same with more food and water! I think looking at it like that changes how you think about what to pack in one, and how you set it up. Like having a lightweight survival kit you strap to your waist, instead of or in addition to a larger one that you might rather leave in the car. You might want the big bag in an emergency, but you can live without it. If you end up needing the survival kit, you might not live without it. In that case, every bag could (in my mind should) contain or have attached to it a smaller emergency kit you can easily remove and take with you if you want or need to leave the pack.
Lost my Dad to cancer last October. He kept fighting till the end. And here I am, acting weak in spirit and courage, when told I have a 50/50 chance of loosing all vision after a surgery I must have. I wish I could be more like my Dad, and Paul.
As they say, God won't test you more than you can stand. That's why he doesn't send tornadoes to California. The Californians can never stand them. You got this buddy. Hang in there.
Great to see you Paul, you look & sound better, but still in our prayers! I am a retired Volunteer Firefighter/E.M.T. Captain; & I agree with you 100%. We can never be prepared enough to face real disasters. I also have a friend that responds to disasters with a Baptist relief team & they have a lot of the same supplies in their trailers! I am not a paranoid type of person & I dont panick everytime somebody claims the apocalypse is tomorrow, but I really appreciate the type of prepardness you & your brother are teaching in this video! Keep up the great work! & hang in there my friend! May God bless you for all you do!
One thing I like to keep in my fire starting kit is a vacuum sealed ziplock bag of dryer lint. You can pack a lot into a tiny space and it makes a great starting aid.
Excellent points.....I mihgt add after many years working in mineral exploration and usually being in remote rugged areas...I always carried a handheld Magellan GPS, a topographical map of the area and a Silva Ranger compass. Being as I live in Canada and hanguns now very difficult if not impossible to get a carry permit for the bush (unlike a couple of decades ago)...I carried a Winchester Defender on the side of my back pack.
Good to see Paul this memorial day weekend. Keep fighting Paul. You sound better than ever. God bless you and Roy and the crew. I would carry the tiny Browning 1911 in 380acp if I was Paul. 😊
What a treat to come home to a Paul Harrell video with both the brothers! And, by coincidence, I am wearing my Paul Harrell T Shirt today! Looking strong . Semper Fi Marine.

I carry 2 speed loaders in a pouch which attaches to the holster. 100rds of both ammo types, and I have one emergency bag in my bugout bag. The idea for that being, if I have my equipment deployed at 'camp' and have to leave with no time to pack up, I can grab 1 bag that will give me access to a small amount of critical items, that could get me by a little longer.
Again, great to see you.
You're doing great, Roy! That said, it was so great seeing Paul again! We love you, Paul! Keep fighting, brother!
Really appreciate you Paul!
having your pack with you cannot be underestimated. Case in point - I went on a family holiday recently, by car, and didnt put a "survival kit" in the car as I thought it was going to just be a paranoid move, not needed, and the car was kind of full. So instead I shoved a small tool kit inside an old cloth into one of the body panels accesible from inside the car behind the trim, and I put a tiny survival kit in the car, poncho, blanket, medical kit ( have small children so need band aids) and a bottle of water. This combined with the tool kit and the radio in the car, would have given me some reasonable options if things had gone badly, but it would have not been anywhere near sufficient to get me home in a proper scenario. What happened? during my weekend away, only a carrington sized solar flare! something i have been wondering about for decades, happened while me and my family were away from everything else we have ready to help us out in an emergency.....
Luckily it seems that we have come a long way since the carrington event and basically nothing noteworthy happened, luckily, id have been toast if it did .
Just saw the do's and don'ts with the police and had to see more of Paul. Glad to see you out and active Paul. Much to my surprise, you have my favorite Kipper Snacks in your bag.
Great seeing you behind the camera again, Mr. Harrell!😃
That was 23 minutes well spent... Can't wait for the long version. I doubt there'll be a single wasted second on that video either.
It's good to see you, Paul, glad you're still hangin' in there.
Oh what a great video guys. We have had a terrible week here in Texas, Tornadoes, hail, heavy rain, etc. Spent some time using my generator and eating pre-cooked foods. I did not really need the 3 day pack or a bug out bag. But this week and THIS video got me to re thinking and re "loading" my pack. VERY useful info here, so thank you again from RATTLED Texas. So great to see you both.
Roy here. Good to know you were prepared. Idea here is the disaster happens and you are stuck at work or in your vehicle or have to walk home. Thanks for watching.
In the PNW, I run a few choice things in my car trunk kit, the usual fire-starters, covers, cords, etc., but I do want to point out some notable items I think make getting stranded (snowed-in, or maybe a wild fire is temporarily blocking your normal route out):
1. 3lb tin of dehydrated peanut butter, with 1 gallon of water and campfire-safe measuring cups for mixing,
2. Hamilton Beach electric kettle, great if you need to boil collected water for purification, and can run off your car's 15 volt outlet,
3. Proper CBRN gas mask with wide FOV, drinking straw, and spare filter (I went with a Mestel SGE 400/3BB gas mask), which I've actually had to use during a forest fire, and holy-moley, I'm glad I had it,
4. Light-weight-yet-large-area 100% wool blanket (retains heat even if drenched, and is a natural fire retardant, also really glad I had it, though I was never that close to the fire),
5. KA-BAR model 1211 (serrated with synthetic grip. though I think recently the new 1211s are no longer serrated) with a pocketed sheathe you can stick a Swiss Army or 1990s Boy Scout knife into, which will cover many of your cutting needs, including opening cans. You could also put a nice multi-tool in the pouch instead.
I also have tools to work on my car or whatever, a water resistant book on first aid in the field, chainsaw gloves (STHL), my Howard Leight ear pro in a hard case, universal battery charger with an assortment of rechargeable batteries, air pump, and a Noko GB40 jump kit (which I have had to use).
The big challenge was getting all this to occupy the smallest amount of space in my trunk as possible, as I currently drive for Uber, and need my trunk for people going to the airport, or hauling groceries, so I don't keep any firearms back there, but I do have a handgun safe that tethers to the chassis in the event I need to go somewhere where I have to stow my pistol and mags. Oh, I also have a mini fishing rod, reel, and tackle box in the trunk.
Like Paul said, you gotta tailor your kit to your needs. I could effectively rebuild civilization using my KA-BAR and what I've learned doing bushcraft over the years, but it's nice to have hard to reproduce items available in a survival situation. Don't deny yourself nice things out of some sense of machoism/puritism.
Paul...Thank you for being a part of my life, all these years!
Today is my birthday. And seeing Paul back in the saddle is a great birthday present!
Hopefully he's on the road to recovery?
Happy Memorial Day guys. So glad to see Paul up and about and starting to sound like his old self. And not surprised at all that his pack includes Pop Tarts.
Looking good and sounding great! It's always nice to see you Paul!
I’ve often said: “pre made kits aren’t tailored to your region or specific needs”. As an Alabama resident theres plenty of water and it rains fairly frequently so for my bags i didn’t pack a lot of water but i do have water purification tablets, sawyer straws, and single layer stainless steel bottles/cups. As for food depending on space: 2-3 bacon flavored spam and or one MRE. In my opinion the best small game “survival rifle” is actually a revolver and it’s specifically the Heritage Rough Rider, i like the manual safety, i like the ability to use a .22lr/short cylinder and a .22 wmr cylinder good for squirrel to coyote sized game. The saying “ammo is cheap your life is not” is why i pack a minimum of 300 rounds of .22lr and 50 rounds of .22 wmr. I highly recommend this revolver to anyone who has a bug out bag, get home bag, or hiking bag. I have the 7.5 inch version but its up to your preference. I did watch Paul Harrell’s video on the HRR .22lr barrel length’s but he didn’t do that same test with .22 wmr if my memory serves me correctly. Basically he determined that for .22lr the best barrel length was 4.25 i believe. However since i keep the .22 wmr cylinder i wanted the extra barrel length.
Great video Roy and Paul, God bless you both ❤
YES MORE PAUL CONTENT. Keep fighting Paul, we believe in you.
im touched to see Paul is doing better! Praying that you recover full!
I am out on a bike ride and stopped for a hydrating moment, wearing your "Legends " shirt. Just happened to see your vid. It is so good seeing you on an extended appearance. God Bless you all.
12:00 I use a Microfiber towel now, but a beach towel is Amazing! Two seconds with a knife and its a poncho. Perfect blanket, especially for a child. Dries, cleans and can be turned into a pack. The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy was correct!
Paul, good to see you on the channel dispensing your wisdom once more. I'm an Aussie infanteer myself so it has always been good to watch your channel, though of course have always been more interested in your rifle and shotgun work than the pistol stuff as its pretty illegal here in Australia unfortunately.
You do remind me these days of a bloke I knew out in NT who had been caught by a croc when he was pitching his tent - he managed to beat the 20 foot croc to death with the hammer he had in his hand, then remove his leg from the croc's mouth and tourniquet what was left up just below the knee, dose himself up on water and painkillers, then drive himself to hospital 4 1/2 hours to get himself treated. He never said never, and nor do I think you do. Praying for you bud.
I don't usually comment but felt compelled to drop a huge, huge thanks for emphasizing the need to make a kit specific to your region! Born, raised and still live in hurricane county and I've seen way too many transplants leave themselves totally in the wind being prepared with emergency supplies... For a blizzard!
Great to see you Paul!!!
you made my day : )
Paul, my family and I are constantly praying for you and your family. Hang tough my brother.
Thank you Paul for all your fantastic informative videos 👏 I've learned so much for you down throughout the year's 👍 Lovely to hear the strength is back in your voice🙏 You're a Hero to all us Firearms Enthusiasts Worldwide. Thank you for your Service Paul👏 Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪🇺🇲
Good to see you, Paul. That crank radio is something I wanted to hit on. I live in North Alabama and in April 2011 we lost power, internet and the capability to do much else for a week due to a huge tornado outbreak. One of those survival radios saved our bacon with its radio reception and crank power. We could keep up with the local news channels broadcasting through the local radio stations.
My day just got much , much brighter seeing Paul .
Love it that Paul is looking much better! One thing I'm missing from these 3 day emergency packs is a compass and a map. There is no reason not to put a compass and a map of your local area in your pack even if its just a 3 day pack.
Buy em by the dozen,!
Check for reliably offen!
Can get with liquid parfen in the crystal to use as fire tinder
Someone please tell Paul that seeing him in these videos is the best thing ever.
Glad to see Paul.. Yes same as conceal carry got to be with you. Prayers for you Paul.
Paul,
Stop breaking your parts. We need you to explain and demonstrate things. You are so loved, respected, and held in the highest regard by so many of us who have never overcome being awestruck by all that you do.
Thank you for your class and wit. Now let's kick ass on the cancer. In the past few years, I beat two different flavors of cancer and I'm clean now. You are a STRONG soul with powerful character. I know you can and will prevail.
Keep fighting, Paul. We are praying for you. Good to see and hear you.
Glad to see you on camera Paul!
Whoever made Paul the Pop-Tart canister... you're awesome
Was talking with some guys about fire starting and in the question of how important it really is a former marine said "Ive been in tons of situations where if I wasn't warm in the next 30 minutes I would be sick for the next 3 days" and I feel that is highly accurate for people who have no experience with exposure.
As a licensed ham, I'd highly recommend a scanner. Learn to use it and program in everything local and surrounding counties. Ham repeaters, public service(fire, law enforcement, department of transportation, etc) and gmrs. If it goes low enough for CB, also useful. Then a dedicated ham HT for comms. I've used it in California and Oregon during emergencies getting useful information that wasn't aired anywhere else. There were dry gas stations, stores with emptied shelves, ice freezers emptied, roads shut down and fires. Ham was a saver for me. It depends on the situation. Always listen before you talk and use discretion.
I picked up a boufang gmrs G5.... Very odd getting them to pick up channels! (Need to watch videos, learn how to use them).
Paul’s voice sounds strong.
TY, both.
i hope this was filmed recently, as he looks better than the last vids he was seen in, but i would wager this was filmed a while ago.
@@leftyo9589 I was just thinking to myself that this is either a video that was filmed a couple of months ago or Paul was has gained a little bit of weight and looks better than in previous videos. I hope the latter is the truth 🤞
Paul looks the best I've seen him in some time and sounds great! Talk about a sweet Sunday surprise!
Praying for you Paul. Really good to see you.
This is perfect, i literally pulled my assault pack to the side a couple days ago, this is exactly what i needed to see. Im an Eagle Scout and veteran, but getting more opinions and facts always helps keep you alive. thank you !
Nice to see Paul again, and in good form!
In my opinion, I never look at these as "3 day" packs, but more like "AT LEAST 3 days". For 72 hours or less, all you really need is some water, couple protein bars, firestarters, and a poncho, because all your really need is food, water, and shelter from the elements. That much can essentially go in a small pouch or bag. I'm talking basic emergency, not comfort. Anything beyond that is to help extend your survival if the emergency goes beyond just a few days, or to make it more comfortable. You don't really need soap and a toothbrush to survive 3 days, but it's sure nice to have. Same with more food and water!
I think looking at it like that changes how you think about what to pack in one, and how you set it up. Like having a lightweight survival kit you strap to your waist, instead of or in addition to a larger one that you might rather leave in the car. You might want the big bag in an emergency, but you can live without it. If you end up needing the survival kit, you might not live without it. In that case, every bag could (in my mind should) contain or have attached to it a smaller emergency kit you can easily remove and take with you if you want or need to leave the pack.
Thanks Paul and Roy! Gonna wait on the long version
Paul looks great in this video and I am praying that he has many peaceful and happy days ahead.
Having Paul's voice this day makes me thankful.
As always great presentation of useful information.
Paul your looking good. Thank you for your service.
Lost my Dad to cancer last October.
He kept fighting till the end.
And here I am, acting weak in spirit and courage, when told I have a 50/50 chance of
loosing all vision after a surgery I must have.
I wish I could be more like my Dad, and Paul.
As they say, God won't test you more than you can stand. That's why he doesn't send tornadoes to California. The Californians can never stand them. You got this buddy. Hang in there.
@@jwdundon
👍
A blessing to have him speak again about this subject especially in these times.
It's really good to see Paul getting out and about. Get well and keep up the fight.
Great to see you Paul, you look & sound better, but still in our prayers! I am a retired Volunteer Firefighter/E.M.T. Captain; & I agree with you 100%. We can never be prepared enough to face real disasters. I also have a friend that responds to disasters with a Baptist relief team & they have a lot of the same supplies in their trailers! I am not a paranoid type of person & I dont panick everytime somebody claims the apocalypse is tomorrow, but I really appreciate the type of prepardness you & your brother are teaching in this video! Keep up the great work! & hang in there my friend! May God bless you for all you do!
One thing I like to keep in my fire starting kit is a vacuum sealed ziplock bag of dryer lint. You can pack a lot into a tiny space and it makes a great starting aid.
Excellent points.....I mihgt add after many years working in mineral exploration and usually being in remote rugged areas...I always carried a handheld Magellan GPS, a topographical map of the area and a Silva Ranger compass. Being as I live in Canada and hanguns now very difficult if not impossible to get a carry permit for the bush (unlike a couple of decades ago)...I carried a Winchester Defender on the side of my back pack.
Good to see Paul this memorial day weekend. Keep fighting Paul. You sound better than ever. God bless you and Roy and the crew. I would carry the tiny Browning 1911 in 380acp if I was Paul. 😊
@@DW133_It is definitely a real and accepted name.
@@DW133_ OK, then tell off anyone who says suppressor.
SO great to see you Paul. Hope you are doing good. Best of luck and great to hear you.
What a treat to come home to a Paul Harrell video with both the brothers! And, by coincidence, I am wearing my Paul Harrell T Shirt today! Looking strong . Semper Fi Marine.
We all love you Paul and you are still looking and sounding great keep up whatever you are doing ❤
I just want to know where I can find one of those radio/flashlights you had. Glad to see you Paul! You too Roy, you guys are awesome.
Also, fuck cancer. My mom lost her battle with it this past December and it still sucks. Kick it's ass Paul. Semper Fi
