I hope that you enjoyed watching this video of my Family CBRN Kit! This particular video took me MONTHS to finish, but I am pretty happy with how it came out. Here's a link to the PDF that contains a list of all of the items included in this video: bit.ly/2MMA2P5 . As you can imagine, it's tough convincing your 4 year old daughter to put on a hazmat suit and walk around a scary building for a UA-cam video. Both of my kids really brought their A Games to the making of this video. This video covers just the Clothing aspect of CBRN preparedness, as this is really a vast topic with multiple aspects to it.

Hey brother, just a quick note about NSB Kitsap. I served there during the Cold War when it was known as NSB Bangor. I was part of the Marine fleet security responsible for the security of the weapons stored there. There's nothing stored at that base that you should be worried about with regards to nuclear contamination outside of the base itself. The only threat would be the detonation of one or more of the warheads which is nearly impossible. I don't want to say "never" but nuclear weapons don't accidentally go off. 😃I'm only posting this because you really don't need to worry about NSB Kitsap, unless Russia or China decide to attack at which point the entire area would become a massive crater. You earned a new sub today, thank you for being such a great content creator here on UA-cam.
this is more or less compleatly unrelated but regarding the war with russia im currently in the uk. They've been threatening to bomb major capitals of europe, those being london berlin and paris with there new satan bombs. Not to say it would happen or even if the uk being as fucking tiny as it is would even survive a thing like that, but would what recomended in this video be worth looking into? i have some major anixtey problems and its either i prepare or im just going to get worse. Is the current war somthing to be worried about where im from or not? (the uk tabloids are so fucking annoying, constantly trying to scare the people and im sick of it)
Hopefully I can see you at the next gun show so we can relate. Also I’ve done A LOT of thinking of the state of the world and I put it all together but silly YT being silly. It would be nice to have a genuine discussion with one of my favorite gun UA-camrs…..and get the word out.

I’m glad that you said you hope this is all a waste of money and not needed. While prepping, I’m getting so cynical and penny pinching that I keep hoping I do need my stuff someday. I have to remember that. Life is not about prepping. Prepping is about enjoying life. And if you enjoyed life with ever having to make use of your preps, you did well.
I totally agree. It's all about enjoying life. All of this Prepping stuff mainly gives me peace of mind. I also hope that I never have to use my home owners insurance, although I'm glad that I have it. Same with Prepping.
Thank you so much for watching and for sharing on your channel! I really appreciate it. This video ended up timing perfectly with your awesome nuclear discussion series. Lastly, thanks for your advise on the thumbnail design. We're going to use this image for our family Christmas cards.
By the way, for viewers of this comment, the links in the PDF all point to the original manufactures, but you can buy all of these items from www.canadianpreparedness.com too! Awesome, curated store of nothing but the best gear.
Another AMAZING video, comprehensive kit, and helpful PDF!!! Untold numbers of people are going to live through a CBRN disaster because of you, Sir. GREAT PRESENTATION! Thanks.
CBRN = Such a huge aspect of preparedness. A pretty comprehensive set of personal protection gear - You should obtain - *Decontamination kits* - these would allow you to carry out personal decontamination and further avoid chemical, residual vapour hazards, particularly whilst wearing non-absorbent suits. I personally, would wear 3 layers under those suits and wear the gloves over the top of the cuffs. (Remember to keep those counters/Dosimeters calibrated)! It's good to see some new 'off-the-shelf' set of CBRN gear available to the public that isn't Govt surplus and that has a great shelf life. Good Job (I would include at least 3 sets per person).
Great comment. Yes, long term I'd like to follow the rule of three with regard to the suits and gloves. We're looking into the decontamination kit idea that you mentioned. Stay tuned for a future video. Thanks for watching!
Order out of chaos. Peace of mind through preparedness!!🏆… Boy I tell ya. Guys like you and City Prepping and Canadian Prepper are truly a beacon of hope to the preparedness community! Thanks bud.
I'm a retired environmental professional. The following is based on my experience with chemical/confined space detection equipment. This kind of equipment is not only expensive, but there are also upkeep costs and time commitments for upkeep. Most of the equipment can not just be stored away. In order to use the equipment, it must be calibrated on a regular basis. Calibration gases and sensors expire. The gases usually expires within a years time and are expensive. Sensors have varying times for expiration but generally expire between 1 to 3 yrs. Please do your homework carefully. You need to put time into learning what kinds of chemicals are in use in your area first. It will impact your decisions. Good luck and great video.
Those kids gloves really got me stoked. I am an adult however got kid sized hands. The small adult gloves fit well but still a little room in the finger tips and wrist area. Thanks for bringing that up!!
Interesting detailed video ! A few comments. 1) Mira imports for US products as the adult gasmasks, filters and suits, from a Czech well known and highly reliable brand (you see on a filter Made in Czech republik), and the child mask comes from Russia, this is the last version of the former rather good range of child gasmasks of soviet era, with the hose on the nose or on the right cheek. Yet I should check the 40mm thread for the child gas mask, since Russian masks as former soviet and ex USSR satellites use a GOST 40mm thread, not a RD 40 (know as NATO as well) - China uses RD40mm, with right filters and hoses. It looks working, but does not provide a perfect seal and the thread can be damaged with the wrong filter / mask. Just a question, I dont know if Mira does a transformation on the hose. 2) the suit is a sauna suit and can induce a heat threat quickly, the Czech brand provides for long wearing a fully ventilated hazmat suit with several filters - price is not the same ... 3) You think to traditional NBC threats, indeed, but far more likely to happen - and they do happen !!! are threats from wildfires (smoke) AND industrial fires or leaks. Just to know that such a fire happened on 26th September in Rouen France, in the middle of the night, the Lubrizol plant (hydrocarbures, oils) is located at about a few meters up to 1 km from the houses and city center ! and the highly toxic fumes covered the area up to Holland. No evacuation, no sanitary assistance, total denial from authorities. Such respirators could have been useful during the hours of fire (2.45 am up to the evening, not speaking of the pollution since 4 weeks now) . Check Lubrizol Rouen on YT; FB, net ...
Great vid brother. Although important, CBRN will always be something I dislike training for mostly because the military forces us to stay in CBRN Gear for a 12+ hours a day for week or so once or twice a year (depending on the installation). 🤷🏻♂️ It’s important stuff though and it’s a topic that most civilians are unfamiliar with. 👍
11:28 Once you remove that mylar bag that is vacuum sealed, your filter won't last 20 years, but 20 weeks more or less. That filter doesn't have front cap to seal it if use is not required. So store your filters you intend to use package vacuum sealed. Othervise, don't depend on it's protection too much.
Just guessing...I bet that the one Mira sent him to check out. I bought the mask and realized there was no reason the break that vacuum seal. TUP, I’m ate, is smarter than I.
Really great video! That's an awesome set you filmed at for the opening footage & clips, creates a great mood 👍 this truly is one of the darker and scarier possibilities of a collapse..I hope for us all this gear never has to be used either, but I'm glad you were able to find what you needed with MIRA! They seem to make some great gear, and I'm excited to see the review of the little geiger counter. Have a great rest of your day!!
Thanks Matthew! Yeah, I like that creepy basketball court. It was perfect for this video. The neighbors were confused as to what I was doing though. :)
@@TheUrbanPrepper I agree! Yeah, that's gotta be tough to pull off in downtown Seattle without drawing any attention 😂 thanks Cliff! Have a great night 👍
Great video! New sub! We have 5 children and I’ve never seen child suits so I am so relieved to have found your channel and this company that sells them! Amazing! I truly wish that none of us had to even be worried with these things, but since we do, I am thankful to have found your channel and all the valuable information you have been sharing! So a huge THANK YOU for the awesome and important videos you’re making!!
Thinking about holes in my preps, I stumbled across this great video. I will be getting many of the items listed. There is no substitute for clean air.
I have over 31 years in the nuclear industry, including 5 years as a level 3 Respirator/ SCBA tech. Before that I worked as a fermentation Microbiologist I can tell you your suit is fine but you would get too hot very quickly and couldn’t stay in it long. Especially if you had to do any real work or just walking. You're better off getting an optically clear vinyl bubble (for your head only) and adding a low flow air pump with a pre-filter, a foam filter and then a hepa filter to supply the hood with positive pressure air. If you were really worried about leaks around your filters, you could add a UV-C tube inside the air line supply tube just after the Hepa filter. No good for toxins or poison gas but probably good for most biological hazards, but use at your own risk because obviously it wouldn’t be a certified suit. The movie Contagion shows a similar suit design. Contagion is a very accurate movie considering the current Coronavirus situation.
Everyone can have a kit like this but if you live in a city thats known like new York or London your pretty much done for, also depends on how quick you can also get the suit on alot of people dont realise you can't take you suit off once radiation has hit the ground and you would need to have a decontamination kit and many backup suits because just 1 won't last
Great video. I think the only addition I would make for added peace of mind as well as convenience would be to add a pill/tablet cutter to each of the kids bags to ensure they get an accurate iodine dosage. The last thing I would be wanting to do is trying to cut tablets with a knife during a radiological event. I also wouldn’t want to be fretting and wondering if I have given enough or too much to the children. It would be stressful enough without creating additional worries.
Hope that the canisters that you put on the mask were for demonstration purposes only. Understand that they will quickly lose their effectiveness once removed from their protective packaging. the activated charcoal will quickly absorb all kinds of airborne particles and become ineffective in protecting you from CBRN hazards. You will need to have another sealed canister ready for your mask. One thing that the manufacturer will not state is that the canister is only good for a couple of hours in a heavily contaminated environment. You will need to exit the hazard plume quickly and decon yourself once in a safe area. Also, you will need to train everyone on how to donn/doff the gear quickly ensuring that no skin is exposed. Additionally any bug out gear will need to be stored and carried in multiple layered contractor trash bags to keep the bags and contents from being contaminated as well. Hit me up if you have any questions!
Excellent presentation. Bigger issue is for average seniors is affordability. And I'm talking no investments to depend on. I was just wondering if you're aware of purchasing an older home, and what is within that could slow down whatever is outside. Consider old paint-jobs. There's a layer of protection, as long as the old plaster walls have not been replaced with drywall. Our biggest issue is a lot of very big windows. 🤯
Thanks for watching, Pearl! This video covered just the clothing aspect, but we're also looking into protective measures for our home. People are doing some really interesting things with additives to paint that we are looking into. Stay tuned for future videos on this overall topic.
your kids filter need a necklace or sling of some sort to prevent a broken seal between their faces and the protective masks. The weight of the filter will pull the mask away from their faces. There is also a leak between the bottom of their masks and the protective suit. That leak leaves exposure of bare skin.
There are much cheaper Rd 40 abec filters out there. Enjoyed the video Edit: it's also a good idea to carry a carbon monoxide detector since these filters do not filter carbon monoxide. If you have a filter that does have the special Catalyst then you're only going to get 15 minutes per filter for carbon monoxide and then the usual length of time after that for all the other things
As a born and raised Washingtonian, I must say Satsop nuclear power plant never housed or produced anything nuclear. It started being built in the late 70's. It was only about 75% completed before the project was scraped in 1983. It is now Satsop Business Park, a mixed use business park. You can take tours of the cooling towers which they left standing instead of dismantling them. As a business park the facility is used for all types of businesses- ncluding Overstock.com. The facility is also rented as a movie set and was used in Transformers-age of Extinction. Visit Satsop.com
The biggest problem is that none of those preps will be useful if you are to too close to a nuclear blast. Same goes for all those highly organized preps, they may be tossed about or vaporized. This means that you may have to make your preps portable. So you will have to look at potential nuclear targets and fallout patterns for several scenarios, Urban areas and major cities are big targets. There is another issue, the radioactive particles absorbed by the canister itself becomes radioactive. There are other issues to take into consideration, most modern electronics may be damaged due to possible EMP effects AND gamma and x ray radiation damaging semiconductors in the electronics. Now, most nuclear strikes depicted in the media occur during daylight hours in the United States, what is to stop a nuclear warhead from going off in your local vicinity at 3am local time on a work night when everyone is asleep? That goes for any disaster really. It brings up a good question, what can a prepper do to prepare for catastrophic events that may occur while asleep? Here's the scenario, the electric grid goes down, as does the communication grid cell phones and landlines don't work, so even IF you leave your cellphone on there will be no warning. Now you might be able to circumvent this by using satellite communication devices......unless there is an EMP.
You can literally get suits and masks that are cheaper and better than the ones in this video. There is no need to spend £230 on a gas mask just buy a second hand one they are exactly the same for a much cheaper price. The exact same for nbc suits
have you and your family done tests to see how long it would take y'all to get into the complete outfit? speed is key. and the day/time it's needed isn't the time to find out what that speed is. so i'd set a timer and see how long it takes to get into the complete set of gear. in a real world application, you may have only seconds. and when it's that length of time, every one of them counts.
My son and I have done speed tests, but not my daughter and wife. It took weeks of convincing just to get my daughter to wear the outfit for this video. She was really scared of it. My wife did not enjoy putting on the outfit and said she only wants to again in a real emergency. :) I'm going to try to convince her to do a few more practice rounds. Maybe we can use these outfits for Halloween this year?
I'll let her know. She loves seeing herself on video when it's all done. She was scared that she was going to turn into Darth Vader if she put the mask on. I settled for just the HAZ-SUIT and Crocs. :)
I would consider adding chemical tape for sealing the suit or simply using duct tape to seal the cuffs about the arms and legs and the zipper seals on the suit
I noticed in the closeup of the filter it says it's made in the Czech Republic and he says it meets military specifications. Is our military getting their protective gear from Czechoslovakia?
Imagine if something happened during the summer, talk about hot. But telling you the truth, if something does happen. How can you survive? Unless you have an underground bunker. Anything above ground, you will need to make your way from the area. God bless us if something like this happens
Thank you so much for making this - I think aside from just the horrific thought of N and R - so many major metros are also near chemical processing and refining facilities... which would be the "C" in CBRN... anyway - your vids are REALLY appreciated - God bless you and yours.
Bleach would be a good thing to stock up on for Biological decon its not as effective being 5.25% chlorine content in bleach but pool chlorine contains calcium hypochlorite chlorine at around a 65% strength. just getting the correct amount pre mixed into water is the key.
13:55 please make sure your kids bandana isnt sitting under the gas mask seal! It is important that you have a tight seal around your face and fabric under a mask will compromise it.
As an fyi to those. I’d recommend “chem tape” for wrapping ankles and wrists for the tychem suits you are wearing. Also the MCR gloves appear to be a neoprene glove, mcr isn’t the only mfg to produce this glove
Having been in the Marines for over 20 years, I can say if you're that close to what you feel is credible NBC or CBRN threat, you'd be better off MOVING than trying to wear protective suits! You'll exhaust your supplies before the contamination is gone and it's safe to travel and live without them!
usgi m40 for tactical/nvg use, msa riot mask for non tactical. jslist suit for chem suit. its cheaper and proven. mira is good for youth and pet gear. other than that, usgi since its cheaper and better. the do rag breaks the seal of the mask btw
Outstanding vid brother. If I may suggest, grab either a pack of paint pens or colored duct tape and mark the top/handle of your bags for quick recognition during rapid deployment. The paint pens you can draw a large shape on the top corners of your bags matching the color of the tag or use the duct tape to wrap the lower ends of each handle matching the color of the tag.
Wow nice kits. My understanding of the use of Iodine tablets is only necessary if possible contaminated food will be used. I would add a pill cutter in there kits if you have to cut them, especially in 1/4.
Very good Video I enjoy watching the entire Video before the annoying "1st" comment. This important to me. Years ago my friend worked at the local University at the nuclear reactor there. There was some kind of "accident " Himself and many of his colleagues were diagnosed with radiation sickness. . Yes, there was an out of court settlement. He and many others did win but His family received the first of the cash a week before he died. The scariest thing? It was NOT mentioned anywhere in the news. On the internet, TV, Radio, Newspapers... Online Nerds can research how it is just a tiny reactor with a minimum of safety concerns. WEll sorry, nerds you are wrong! They had gas masks for horses in WW1 The ones for children should be an important part of a family's Preps. I will look into that companies products. Thank YOU!
I'm glad you enjoyed watching this video! That is sad to hear about your friend. This is just one aspect of my family CBRN planning. It's a vast topic with many aspects to it. Stay tuned for more videos in the future on this subject. Thanks for watching!
I also know of a group of people at a university that have all died of radiation-related illness. My friend made it longer than the rest of the group but passed away last year. There was never an official admission of any "accident" for these people.
A tablet cutter or two might be handy especially if the tablets aren’t grooved to break easier. Even then they can be tricky to split evenly and large hands might struggle to manage breaking them.
I to have the same moral dilemma about protecting myself and not been able to protect my child. Thank you for the video and to show there are suitable suits for small children. But unlike you my wife isn’t so keen for me to get the stuff together. So I’m going to do it in secret. Just to save their lives you know…
Good gear but the child gasmask is not CBRN rated and is not a NATO thread it’s a ghost thread and there for needs a ghost threaded filter I would recommend polish FP-5 filters because they have a neutral thread and there also CBRN rated
Aloha! WHAT TYPE OF GAS MASK ARE THE KIDS WEARING? Q: Is there a way to attach the tube and filter to your Hazmat suit to keep hands free?? You're full of great tips! Mahalo Stay safe & God bless you all!
Great preparness :) How often would you review the fit of the gear? Does each suit cover a range of sizes i.e. for myself, could they go from a L to XXL depending on what size I am
That’s interesting. The quality looks great and the company really thought things out. Thinking of the family should always be first and I like the setup. Good stuff! I was thinking they would make awesome Halloween costumes with the family for the trick or treaters.😂👍🍻
Hey Cliff your a great dad to your children and offer them the best protection possible but I have a question does the Mira Safety Haz Suit come with gloves and boots and I also recently bought the p3 partimax filters

Life is not about prepping. Prepping is about enjoying life. And if you enjoyed life with ever having to make use of your preps, you did well.
I totally agree. It's all about enjoying life. All of this Prepping stuff mainly gives me peace of mind. I also hope that I never have to use my home owners insurance, although I'm glad that I have it. Same with Prepping.
Epic video! Thanks for all the time and dedication to high quality reviews of great products.
Thank you so much for watching and for sharing on your channel! I really appreciate it. This video ended up timing perfectly with your awesome nuclear discussion series. Lastly, thanks for your advise on the thumbnail design. We're going to use this image for our family Christmas cards.
By the way, for viewers of this comment, the links in the PDF all point to the original manufactures, but you can buy all of these items from www.canadianpreparedness.com too! Awesome, curated store of nothing but the best gear.
@@TheUrbanPrepper I agree the timing was great! It'd be awesome to see you two collab on another interview sometime 👍
Another AMAZING video, comprehensive kit, and helpful PDF!!! Untold numbers of people are going to live through a CBRN disaster because of you, Sir. GREAT PRESENTATION! Thanks.
Wow! Thank you so much for the kind words. Very humbling. I hope no one has to ever use this type of gear in a real disaster.
CBRN = Such a huge aspect of preparedness.
A pretty comprehensive set of personal protection gear - You should obtain - *Decontamination kits* - these would allow you to carry out personal decontamination and further avoid chemical, residual vapour hazards, particularly whilst wearing non-absorbent suits.
I personally, would wear 3 layers under those suits and wear the gloves over the top of the cuffs.
(Remember to keep those counters/Dosimeters calibrated)!
It's good to see some new 'off-the-shelf' set of CBRN gear available to the public that isn't Govt surplus and that has a great shelf life.
Good Job (I would include at least 3 sets per person).
Great comment. Yes, long term I'd like to follow the rule of three with regard to the suits and gloves. We're looking into the decontamination kit idea that you mentioned. Stay tuned for a future video. Thanks for watching!
Order out of chaos. Peace of mind through preparedness!!🏆… Boy I tell ya. Guys like you and City Prepping and Canadian Prepper are truly a beacon of hope to the preparedness community! Thanks bud.
I'm a retired environmental professional. The following is based on my experience with chemical/confined space detection equipment. This kind of equipment is not only expensive, but there are also upkeep costs and time commitments for upkeep. Most of the equipment can not just be stored away. In order to use the equipment, it must be calibrated on a regular basis. Calibration gases and sensors expire. The gases usually expires within a years time and are expensive. Sensors have varying times for expiration but generally expire between 1 to 3 yrs. Please do your homework carefully. You need to put time into learning what kinds of chemicals are in use in your area first. It will impact your decisions. Good luck and great video.
Damn so it sounds like unless ur rich or even just well off ur fucked
Good timing on the video. I was just wondering what I was gonna wear if I ever decide to travel to D6 to fight the dark ones lol.

Those kids gloves really got me stoked. I am an adult however got kid sized hands. The small adult gloves fit well but still a little room in the finger tips and wrist area. Thanks for bringing that up!!
The Satsop Nuclear facility never actually became operational, and has never seen any radioactive material.
You're awesome with this stuff! Thank you for all the time and preparation you do
The real crime is the price of MIRA equipment
AMEN!
AMEN!
Thanks for the work you put in to help others know what is available for children's protection!!
Bout time a war breaks out kids are going out grow that stuff
A very well done and informative video. In light of current events, I watched this again today and shared it with my prepcircle.
Thanks a lot, I've been looking for this so many years... Glad you made one now
Thanks for this, sir. I’m even closer to that Navy base than your are. Gonna have to get geared up!
Best video I've seen from a CBRN preparedness standpoint. Thank you for sharing your journey!
Interesting detailed video ! A few comments. 1) Mira imports for US products as the adult gasmasks, filters and suits, from a Czech well known and highly reliable brand (you see on a filter Made in Czech republik), and the child mask comes from Russia, this is the last version of the former rather good range of child gasmasks of soviet era, with the hose on the nose or on the right cheek. Yet I should check the 40mm thread for the child gas mask, since Russian masks as former soviet and ex USSR satellites use a GOST 40mm thread, not a RD 40 (know as NATO as well) - China uses RD40mm, with right filters and hoses. It looks working, but does not provide a perfect seal and the thread can be damaged with the wrong filter / mask. Just a question, I dont know if Mira does a transformation on the hose. 2) the suit is a sauna suit and can induce a heat threat quickly, the Czech brand provides for long wearing a fully ventilated hazmat suit with several filters - price is not the same ... 3) You think to traditional NBC threats, indeed, but far more likely to happen - and they do happen !!! are threats from wildfires (smoke) AND industrial fires or leaks. Just to know that such a fire happened on 26th September in Rouen France, in the middle of the night, the Lubrizol plant (hydrocarbures, oils) is located at about a few meters up to 1 km from the houses and city center ! and the highly toxic fumes covered the area up to Holland. No evacuation, no sanitary assistance, total denial from authorities. Such respirators could have been useful during the hours of fire (2.45 am up to the evening, not speaking of the pollution since 4 weeks now) . Check Lubrizol Rouen on YT; FB, net ...
Great vid brother. Although important, CBRN will always be something I dislike training for mostly because the military forces us to stay in CBRN Gear for a 12+ hours a day for week or so once or twice a year (depending on the installation). 🤷🏻♂️ It’s important stuff though and it’s a topic that most civilians are unfamiliar with. 👍
11:28 Once you remove that mylar bag that is vacuum sealed, your filter won't last 20 years, but 20 weeks more or less.
That filter doesn't have front cap to seal it if use is not required. So store your filters you intend to use package vacuum sealed. Othervise, don't depend on it's protection too much.
Just guessing...I bet that the one Mira sent him to check out.
I bought the mask and realized there was no reason the break that vacuum seal. TUP, I’m ate, is smarter than I.
Really great video! That's an awesome set you filmed at for the opening footage & clips, creates a great mood 👍 this truly is one of the darker and scarier possibilities of a collapse..I hope for us all this gear never has to be used either, but I'm glad you were able to find what you needed with MIRA! They seem to make some great gear, and I'm excited to see the review of the little geiger counter. Have a great rest of your day!!
Thanks Matthew! Yeah, I like that creepy basketball court. It was perfect for this video. The neighbors were confused as to what I was doing though. :)
@@TheUrbanPrepper I agree! Yeah, that's gotta be tough to pull off in downtown Seattle without drawing any attention 😂 thanks Cliff! Have a great night 👍
Great video! New sub! We have 5 children and I’ve never seen child suits so I am so relieved to have found your channel and this company that sells them! Amazing! I truly wish that none of us had to even be worried with these things, but since we do, I am thankful to have found your channel and all the valuable information you have been sharing! So a huge THANK YOU for the awesome and important videos you’re making!!
Isn’t the child’s mask from the Soviet Union they take gost threaded filters
yup they are GOST threaded
Thinking about holes in my preps, I stumbled across this great video. I will be getting many of the items listed. There is no substitute for clean air.
Another awesome (and wallet affecting) video.
Sorry for the hit on your wallet! I'm glad you liked the video. :)
I have over 31 years in the nuclear industry, including 5 years as a level 3 Respirator/ SCBA tech. Before that I worked as a fermentation Microbiologist I can tell you your suit is fine but you would get too hot very quickly and couldn’t stay in it long. Especially if you had to do any real work or just walking.
You're better off getting an optically clear vinyl bubble (for your head only) and adding a low flow air pump with a pre-filter, a foam filter and then a hepa filter to supply the hood with positive pressure air. If you were really worried about leaks around your filters, you could add a UV-C tube inside the air line supply tube just after the Hepa filter.
No good for toxins or poison gas but probably good for most biological hazards, but use at your own risk because obviously it wouldn’t be a certified suit.
The movie Contagion shows a similar suit design. Contagion is a very accurate movie considering the current Coronavirus situation.
Everyone can have a kit like this but if you live in a city thats known like new York or London your pretty much done for, also depends on how quick you can also get the suit on alot of people dont realise you can't take you suit off once radiation has hit the ground and you would need to have a decontamination kit and many backup suits because just 1 won't last
Great video. I think the only addition I would make for added peace of mind as well as convenience would be to add a pill/tablet cutter to each of the kids bags to ensure they get an accurate iodine dosage. The last thing I would be wanting to do is trying to cut tablets with a knife during a radiological event. I also wouldn’t want to be fretting and wondering if I have given enough or too much to the children. It would be stressful enough without creating additional worries.
Also a crusher if the kids can't take solid tablets
Hope that the canisters that you put on the mask were for demonstration purposes only. Understand that they will quickly lose their effectiveness once removed from their protective packaging. the activated charcoal will quickly absorb all kinds of airborne particles and become ineffective in protecting you from CBRN hazards. You will need to have another sealed canister ready for your mask. One thing that the manufacturer will not state is that the canister is only good for a couple of hours in a heavily contaminated environment. You will need to exit the hazard plume quickly and decon yourself once in a safe area. Also, you will need to train everyone on how to donn/doff the gear quickly ensuring that no skin is exposed. Additionally any bug out gear will need to be stored and carried in multiple layered contractor trash bags to keep the bags and contents from being contaminated as well. Hit me up if you have any questions!
Those kids are so adorable!
Excellent presentation. Bigger issue is for average seniors is affordability. And I'm talking no investments to depend on. I was just wondering if you're aware of purchasing an older home, and what is within that could slow down whatever is outside. Consider old paint-jobs. There's a layer of protection, as long as the old plaster walls have not been replaced with drywall. Our biggest issue is a lot of very big windows. 🤯
Thanks for watching, Pearl! This video covered just the clothing aspect, but we're also looking into protective measures for our home. People are doing some really interesting things with additives to paint that we are looking into. Stay tuned for future videos on this overall topic.
@@TheUrbanPrepper I'll surely be waiting for that one. 👍
And for a good respirator for a child I would recommend a size small AVON S10 or a AVON CT12 or AVON FM12
your kids filter need a necklace or sling of some sort to prevent a broken seal between their faces and the protective masks. The weight of the filter will pull the mask away from their faces. There is also a leak between the bottom of their masks and the protective suit. That leak leaves exposure of bare skin.
There are much cheaper Rd 40 abec filters out there.
Enjoyed the video
Edit: it's also a good idea to carry a carbon monoxide detector since these filters do not filter carbon monoxide. If you have a filter that does have the special Catalyst then you're only going to get 15 minutes per filter for carbon monoxide and then the usual length of time after that for all the other things
As a born and raised Washingtonian, I must say Satsop nuclear power plant never housed or produced anything nuclear. It started being built in the late 70's. It was only about 75% completed before the project was scraped in 1983. It is now Satsop Business Park, a mixed use business park. You can take tours of the cooling towers which they left standing instead of dismantling them. As a business park the facility is used for all types of businesses- ncluding Overstock.com. The facility is also rented as a movie set and was used in Transformers-age of Extinction. Visit Satsop.com
The biggest problem is that none of those preps will be useful if you are to too close to a nuclear blast. Same goes for all those highly organized preps, they may be tossed about or vaporized. This means that you may have to make your preps portable.
So you will have to look at potential nuclear targets and fallout patterns for several scenarios, Urban areas and major cities are big targets.
There is another issue, the radioactive particles absorbed by the canister itself becomes radioactive.
There are other issues to take into consideration, most modern electronics may be damaged due to possible EMP effects AND gamma and x ray radiation damaging semiconductors in the electronics.
Now, most nuclear strikes depicted in the media occur during daylight hours in the United States, what is to stop a nuclear warhead from going off in your local vicinity at 3am local time on a work night when everyone is asleep?
That goes for any disaster really. It brings up a good question, what can a prepper do to prepare for catastrophic events that may occur while asleep?
Here's the scenario, the electric grid goes down, as does the communication grid cell phones and landlines don't work, so even IF you leave your cellphone on there will be no warning. Now you might be able to circumvent this by using satellite communication devices......unless there is an EMP.
I think about get an EMP shield to protect my car.
Thanks for the info, Cliff! I just started my CBRN preps last month. No kids, but figuring out how to protect the dogs will be fun!
Very well done,be proud of yourself mister!
Couldn’t have timed this video any better
Excellent as ever, great video and useful guide for those who have not done any NBC/CBRN training.
You can literally get suits and masks that are cheaper and better than the ones in this video. There is no need to spend £230 on a gas mask just buy a second hand one they are exactly the same for a much cheaper price. The exact same for nbc suits
Want to provide some links? Please
Lord Amraphel depends on what you need fella
unbelievably informative and once again an excellent presentation,deliverance and well put together video!
have you and your family done tests to see how long it would take y'all to get into the complete outfit?
speed is key. and the day/time it's needed isn't the time to find out what that speed is. so i'd set a timer and see how long it takes to get into the complete set of gear. in a real world application, you may have only seconds. and when it's that length of time, every one of them counts.
My son and I have done speed tests, but not my daughter and wife. It took weeks of convincing just to get my daughter to wear the outfit for this video. She was really scared of it. My wife did not enjoy putting on the outfit and said she only wants to again in a real emergency. :) I'm going to try to convince her to do a few more practice rounds. Maybe we can use these outfits for Halloween this year?
@@TheUrbanPrepper Awww, well tell your daughter she looked great and we're all thankful she wore it for this helpful video! :)
I'll let her know. She loves seeing herself on video when it's all done. She was scared that she was going to turn into Darth Vader if she put the mask on. I settled for just the HAZ-SUIT and Crocs. :)
I would consider adding chemical tape for sealing the suit or simply using duct tape to seal the cuffs about the arms and legs and the zipper seals on the suit
I noticed in the closeup of the filter it says it's made in the Czech Republic and he says it meets military specifications. Is our military getting their protective gear from Czechoslovakia?
I guess.
You can make these protection suits yourself and save a lot of money,buy fabrik and sew reserve suits too.
I just missed the 3 Mile Island nuclear incident in Pennsylvania 40 years ago. No radioactive plumb, but the plant closed several weeks ago.
Wow! Close call! That would be scary.
Probably Wanna use a satchel instead of just holding the filter in your hand
So wait 150*F / 65.5*C showers aren't enough? :(
Time to turn up the water heater again...
Imagine if something happened during the summer, talk about hot.
But telling you the truth, if something does happen. How can you survive? Unless you have an underground bunker. Anything above ground, you will need to make your way from the area. God bless us if something like this happens
Thank you so much for making this - I think aside from just the horrific thought of N and R - so many major metros are also near chemical processing and refining facilities... which would be the "C" in CBRN... anyway - your vids are REALLY appreciated - God bless you and yours.
Bleach would be a good thing to stock up on for Biological decon its not as effective being 5.25% chlorine content in bleach but pool chlorine contains calcium hypochlorite chlorine at around a 65% strength. just getting the correct amount pre mixed into water is the key.
Anybody here because of Coronavirius? 🙋
I'm doing everything I can within my power to protect my family.
@Él CapitánWell somebody sounds like they got chorizo stuck in the wrong place.
Bro chill it's not that deadly
you’re closest nuclear plant is 93 miles away, I live in-between two nuclear plants, each is 3 km away
13:55 please make sure your kids bandana isnt sitting under the gas mask seal! It is important that you have a tight seal around your face and fabric under a mask will compromise it.
As an fyi to those. I’d recommend “chem tape” for wrapping ankles and wrists for the tychem suits you are wearing. Also the MCR gloves appear to be a neoprene glove, mcr isn’t the only mfg to produce this glove
Having been in the Marines for over 20 years, I can say if you're that close to what you feel is credible NBC or CBRN threat, you'd be better off MOVING than trying to wear protective suits! You'll exhaust your supplies before the contamination is gone and it's safe to travel and live without them!
Why do the children gas masks have such a long hose
You can clip the filter on a belt, it just takes some weight off the face. Welders respirators do the same.
usgi m40 for tactical/nvg use, msa riot mask for non tactical. jslist suit for chem suit. its cheaper and proven. mira is good for youth and pet gear. other than that, usgi since its cheaper and better. the do rag breaks the seal of the mask btw
The unfortunate truth is that people call us crazy and say we dont need this useless stuff but in reality we will outlast the non preppers Sad truth
Do you happen to recommend any disposable masks to tuck into bug out bags to stash multiples somewhere as needed ???
Amber Ashton 3m mask
Not disposable but istrali gas masks are really cheap if you don't get the voice diafram and water tube
Outstanding vid brother.
If I may suggest, grab either a pack of paint pens or colored duct tape and mark the top/handle of your bags for quick recognition during rapid deployment.
The paint pens you can draw a large shape on the top corners of your bags matching the color of the tag or use the duct tape to wrap the lower ends of each handle matching the color of the tag.
Wow nice kits. My understanding of the use of Iodine tablets is only necessary if possible contaminated food will be used. I would add a pill cutter in there kits if you have to cut them, especially in 1/4.
Thankyou for making this video it’s really helpful stay blessed
Daughter is so adorable…I pray we’ll never need these…we have to protect our next generation
Are you a nervous person.....it’s nothing wrong protect your family....but this, man.
Matte Swe and look where we are headed now
Very good Video I enjoy watching the entire Video before the annoying "1st" comment.
This important to me. Years ago my friend worked at the local University at the nuclear reactor there.
There was some kind of "accident " Himself and many of his colleagues were diagnosed with radiation sickness.
. Yes, there was an out of court settlement. He and many others did win but His family received the first of the cash a week before he died. The scariest thing? It was NOT mentioned anywhere in the news. On the internet, TV, Radio, Newspapers...
Online Nerds can research how it is just a tiny reactor with a minimum of safety concerns. WEll sorry, nerds you are wrong!
They had gas masks for horses in WW1 The ones for children should be an important part of a family's Preps.
I will look into that companies products. Thank YOU!
I'm glad you enjoyed watching this video! That is sad to hear about your friend. This is just one aspect of my family CBRN planning. It's a vast topic with many aspects to it. Stay tuned for more videos in the future on this subject. Thanks for watching!
I also know of a group of people at a university that have all died of radiation-related illness. My friend made it longer than the rest of the group but passed away last year. There was never an official admission of any "accident" for these people.
@@wval4379 Thank You for understanding. So sorry about your friend.
A tablet cutter or two might be handy especially if the tablets aren’t grooved to break easier. Even then they can be tricky to split evenly and large hands might struggle to manage breaking them.
Great idea!
Well done sir!
Thanks for watching, Robbie!
Love the info and video. Thanks man
I to have the same moral dilemma about protecting myself and not been able to protect my child. Thank you for the video and to show there are suitable suits for small children. But unlike you my wife isn’t so keen for me to get the stuff together. So I’m going to do it in secret. Just to save their lives you know…
I had to sneak around a lot initially when I started prepping.
Good gear but the child gasmask is not CBRN rated and is not a NATO thread it’s a ghost thread and there for needs a ghost threaded filter I would recommend polish FP-5 filters because they have a neutral thread and there also CBRN rated
Excellent research and great video. I know this is serious but can we just look at those cutie kids for a minute??? Thanks for all your work on this.
Aloha! WHAT TYPE OF GAS MASK ARE THE KIDS WEARING? Q: Is there a way to attach the tube and filter to your Hazmat suit to keep hands free?? You're full of great tips! Mahalo Stay safe & God bless you all!
Go to the Mira safety website you will find everything there
2019 oh this guy is crazy never going to be pandemic...2020 hey buddy let me in let me in im starving and gonna get virus
2021: Nuclear? That's nuts.
2022:
Great preparness :)
How often would you review the fit of the gear? Does each suit cover a range of sizes i.e. for myself, could they go from a L to XXL depending on what size I am
Thanks for watching! I found that MIRA Safety's size chart was pretty accurate when I did my ordering.
Those Mira safety child masks are actually pdf masks from the 80s
PDF-2SH to be exact but doesn’t really matgwr
I love how Mira safety takes gas masks and renames it and giving the wrong info
@@buzzbaar5218 and greatly exaggerating the quality, especially on the children’s mask
Wouldn't be cheaper to move out and relocate somewhere else.
Hey UrbanPrepper, great video. I too have small children. How did you get them into these suits, etc, without scaring them with details?
Great job as usual!
The gear looks incredible, got me a Soviet PMG and I wanna get it a filter to see if it works.
If it comes to this I’d rather be dead. Everyone i love who loves me wouldn’t be here so what’s the point. I’d be ready. Good luck folks.
That’s interesting. The quality looks great and the company really thought things out. Thinking of the family should always be first and I like the setup. Good stuff! I was thinking they would make awesome Halloween costumes with the family for the trick or treaters.😂👍🍻
Watching this in 2023. The C19 event was crazy. So much misinformation at that time and that from Uncle Sam.
Word of warning, that durag is likely to break the air tight seal of the mask, not good during an actual CBRN scenario!
The mira chm2m children gasmask looks like a copy of an sowjet pdf-2sh childrens gasmask from the late 1980s
Thanks for your research!
Thank you.
Actually, before in was nbc, it was cbr, chemical, biological, radiological. The change occurred in the mid seventies.
Do you have a video/plan for decontamination? Looked through your videos and could have missed it.
I'm still working on that one. I'm planning for this to be a series that I can have on a designated Playlist. This one features the Clothing/PPE.
Hey Cliff your a great dad to your children and offer them the best protection possible but I have a question does the Mira Safety Haz Suit come with gloves and boots and I also recently bought the p3 partimax filters
thank u for sharing this
Crazy to know that you thought that far ahead now look where we are today 7/29/22 smart guy.
