Doing a 'dry run' or a practice run is so important for this sort of thing: thank you for taking us along as you practiced your Plan A. Your videography, especially the water crossing, was excellent! I believe your talent and abilities as a videographer augment your story and help the audience deeply feel the story you are sharing with us in our very bones. Thank you!
I have a plan where to walk to get from work to home, I have found out some bridle paths/footpaths to shorten the distance and avoid a dangerous road but completely forgot that I need to cross a river which ever way I go. Yes there are a couple of bridges I can use, but what would happen if one, or both of them was out. Just never crossed my mind before, we just take things like that for granted. I’m also not a great swimmer. I’m going to get a dry bag to use as a buoyancy aid to go in my get home bag.
Great video mate. Excellent production values and narration. And loads of useful info. Although as an Aussie I had to laugh at the "so many spiders, but none of them are poisonous" part...
When crossing a river, you shouldn't swim straight across or against the current. You should aim slightly downstream. Your speed across the river will be faster and you will use less energy.
If you know you will likely have to cross a river, I would suggest having a flotation vest and helmet in your kit bag River crossing typically kill a lot of special forces people, its one of the most dangerous activities you can do Being prepared for situations is kind of the entire point of having a bag with gear in it Another option is to have a folding saw and cordage to make a very basic raft, it only has to get you to the other side. Being up on top of fast moving water is way safer than being in it
Yeap. I'd also facilitate a way to have (or being able to steal) a damn bicycle. They get you places far away real quick with not that much exertion. 15km is a leisurely ride on a good gravel/Mt bike. You can go uphill, downhill, on dirt roads, on a foot path... Almost anywhere. And you can easily carry them over obstacles or bring them over a river on an inflatable float. They're a much underappreciated mode of transport...
@@mysterioanonymous3206 Yeah agreed, and damn stealthy too. Light enough to take on a well made raft as well Actually you could get one of those fold up paratrooper ones so it goes in the back of your car, set up 2 panier bags on it, one each side of the back wheel. One panier holds your bug out bag, the other one could hold floatation bladders and a tarp to make a quick raft. Not many places you couldn't go then
@@AlexWander Haha no problem! You have a cool channel, look forward to see the evolution of your gear and ideas If you are interested in messing around with floatation or a coracle or improvised raft or whatever, a good rule to remember is 1L of trapped air will float about 1kg of weight. You can buy 10L unused wine bladders that fold up small and weigh very little. You can also get some pretty crazy fold up kayaks and inflatable kayaks now days too. I am sure there are a bunch of options
Idk about special forces, but Marines are trained to use our waterproofed equipment for floatation, similar to what he did here. It also rings true on other channels ive watched.... andrew for instance on ranger survival and one of alex's colleagues.
You requested viewers to suggest additional items or note what we wouldn’t carry. Here are my suggestions for additional items as well my thoughts regarding what not to carry. I would add: 1) Minimalist Personal hygiene kit-toothbrush, toothpaste, small soap bar, tooth floss, bandana, insect repellant, & sunscreen; 2) Minimalist Repair kit-Tenacious tape, safety pin, needle & thread; 3) Additional Medical kit-Ibuprofen, Tylenol, a few assorted bandages, Neosporin, Pepto Bismol, Imodium, &caffeine tablets. I wouldn’t carry a MIRA gas mask; but I do carry a NIOSH approved N95 face mask. Keep up the good work.
Wrap your pack in a tarp or poncho and use it for a floatation device. It’ll have enough air inside to keep you afloat and it’ll keep the pack and contents dry
Cool series brother. Way to get people to be aware of scenarios that can happen, along with the tips to counter them. Crossing that flowing stream or river may be hunky dory during the warmer seasons, but boy of boy does one need a fire during the cold months just to survive after that. Some people can't even come close to understanding how much work is needed just with the camera alone and editing, so I appreciate and thank you for covering this topic. Hope you and your family are well these days bro. Take care, ciao!
The foldable paddle (remodeled) can also be used as a stick for support while walking. Remember that it will be easier for you to keep dogs and " "wild animals" " away. Running is fun, but it consumes a lot of calories.
That was a nice short film. It's incredible what you young people do with your drones. I used to be a professional commercial photographer back in the 1970s when we had Nikon cameras with 35mm acetate film and through the lens metering was something new. Now you can photograph incredible scenery that we could never do before. Cheers from Canada.
Amazingly high quality video! Thanks for taking us along as you actually test your SHTF plans. Not sure what all the other plans entail, but I was thinking you might want to invest in a couple of inflatable boats. Keep one with you and one at your parents. This way if, based on the situation, it would be safer to go back to where you stay you would have a safer way to get your parents across the river. Just a thought… you’ve probably already thought of this. Anyway… thanks for the video; it definitely got me thinking!
Ein sehr schönes Video, perfekt in Szene gesetzt mit vielen Denkanstößen. Wenn bei dir der Fluss definitiv überquert werden muss, wäre vlt ein Packraft das richtige Wiegt nur 2-3 Kilo und du kommst sicher über den Fluss. Das Boot könnte man im voraus sogar in einem Fass verbuddeln, so das keiner es findet. Eine art Prepper Cache, dort könnten auch andere wichtige Dinge untergebracht werden. Ich denke da an ein 100 Liter Fass.
Hi Alex!! Wow!! You did an outstanding job!! Awesome video with a SHTF presentation, great eye opener on what can happen, great editing!! Love your channel and content!! Great work!! Thank you so much for sharing!!👍🏿💯❤️ from Washington state, USA 🇺🇸
Im from paris my origin are in italia near piacenza i olways know you are italian thanks for your time , merci pour votre temps , grazie per il tuo tempo
Very well done. I appreciated your review of what you did at each step of the way, what your motivation was, discoveries along the way, recommendations about knowing your area, and the concluding discussion on alternative and next steps. These are all things to consider, and your rehearsal made it clear as to why. Thank you!
once again, a GREAT video from you. Very informative and straightforward how you walk us through a realistic SHTF situation. No messing around, just stick to the plan. Staying prepared goes a long way indeed. Keep it up, brother!
Tutto bello Alex, dai contenuti, alle riprese al montaggio. Vedo con piacere che il tuo canale inizia ad avere il giusto riscontro, era ora! Aspetto le prossime produzioni, un saluto.
Great attitude and advice. My furthest point when at work is 60 km from home. As an electric train driver I'd really be in trouble if I had no transport. I've downloaded offline maps and when I see 15 hours walking time across a hostile city as my only option I dread the idea. Getting water and not mugged are my main concerns. 2 days I think if all goes well.
Thank you so much! Not sure in what city you live in but I can understand what trouble means in your case. I was wondering, as a train driver , did you ever think of using rail roads to reach safely the nearest point that leads to home? Just thinking out loud, In my humble opinion, if something major happened , train traffic should be shut ooff and rail roads would become the path of least restistance last but not least all the "Eyes" should be focused somewhere else , what do you think? Of course 60 km are a long way home and maybe for you a portable electric "vehicle" could be a plus for sure ! About water, if you have a Grayl geopress you can drink even the nastiest puddle you can find on the street , just prefilter the water quickly with a shemag or a t shirt and then press it into the grayl . The risk of Being mugged is a serious problem, as I've already said, I would find a less and unconventional beaten path even if it's against the law, you know we need to get back home to our family , this is our priority , 🙏
@@AlexWander I'm in London UK . You've made a very good point about walking the rail network. I'd get away with that and definitely be safer. I've been groomed to follow rules maybe why I've still got my job after 30 years. I have a new water bottle that can filter any puddle water so time to start using it. I purchased it many years ago from the Mormon church website. Thanks again
Brilliant video. Unbelievable with what is happening your side in regards to the infrastructure. Makes me think. That is a silent demon that river. Keep up the good work ✊🤙.
You need to pack a helmet and a flotation vest or dual use water bladder carrier/flotation device. since you have a river crossing. You will also need a second set if you plan to cross with company. River crossings would be something I would avoid after 48 hours post shift. Risks from debris, pathogens, pollutants, kill zone will complicate the crossing.
Very nice planning! I also thought of this type of scenarios, but we are 2 adults and 2 kids. Exiting the city by car in case of major panic is a no go, all the roads will be blocked. I am terrified of having to flee to the unknown by foot, maybe even in the winter...
I can understand your point, if I would live in the city my main escape route would be train rail road, they always go outside of the ciiy, ther's no traffic and during an emergency situation governement will shut down train travel so that way is going to be a good way!
Right on brother. Don't forget all the so called refugees and people coming to Italy. We have the same issues here in America, nowhere is safe from the politicians destruction. Hard times ahead, stay ready.
Great stuff Alex. Really well thought out plans. If you need to do a river crossing without rope safety, it's a good idea to make a floatation pack. By wrapping your rucksack/bergen in a bivi bag will make better buoyancy.
Hey, Alex! Great to see you! I spoke with you a few years ago on Facebook Messenger about your Wander Tactical Knives. I just found you on my UA-cam account and I subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to watching your videos. 😊
Ciao Alex! que video excelente. Um prepper italiano é algo raro para mim. Condições muito peculiares devido a geografia do país. Ja ganhou mais um inscrito aqui do Brasil. Nao pare esse excelente trabalho!
Thanks for hard work in doing this i enjoyed watching and love the fact that you are not 20 to 30 years old and super fit nice to see in real time ish looking forward to the next episode
Just found this. Sooo glad he explained his clothing. I was thinking soaking wet in almost any condition is a death sentence. (80 temps and soaking wet in water that's 60's at least, now struggling tired, and have to continue. You MUST change clothes, including underwear. I'm fortunate, 4 miles, 7 minutes from work, solid hard top. Couldn't ask for better conditions.
Hey there! Not necessarily, it was really warm and synthetic clothes dry out pretty quickly! Autunm and winter season are trickier for sure, I would think twice before to do it. Glad You work not so far from home, it’s definitely a huge plus! Thanks for sharing!🔥👍
Really enjoyed this one Alex. Looking forwards to the rest of the series. I am just getting back into running with my pack on so I know I can do it when needed. We are a family of four and my two kids are autistic. If a bad scenario were to occur one thing I know for sure I'd I need to be in the best physical condition I can be as the will be relying on me. That's my current goal. Take care man. Appreciate what you do.
@AlexWander what's funny is over here in the UK you're seen as somewhat crazy for trying to plan for things going to shit. Like nothing could possibly ever go wrong. But when Covid hit, everyone panicked and it went crazy round here. That gave me my first hint of what would happen in a SHTF scenario.
This guy hits the bullseye every time: An absolute pleasure to watch a video with a guy this likeable and practical. A rarity on UA-cam, even amongst those who mean well, they are usually annoying in some way.
thanks so much for your words!!!! i will keep doing my best!!!

And I think I know why 🤣 thanks so much for stopping by !
Definitely wouldn’t cross a river like him in OZ either. Crocs in the north, bull sharks everywhere else
Your English is excellent my friend!!
Thank you! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
When crossing a river, you shouldn't swim straight across or against the current. You should aim slightly downstream. Your speed across the river will be faster and you will use less energy.

Just found this. Sooo glad he explained his clothing. I was thinking soaking wet in almost any condition is a death sentence. (80 temps and soaking wet in water that's 60's at least, now struggling tired, and have to continue. You MUST change clothes, including underwear.
I'm fortunate, 4 miles, 7 minutes from work, solid hard top. Couldn't ask for better conditions.
Hey there! Not necessarily, it was really warm and synthetic clothes dry out pretty quickly! Autunm and winter season are trickier for sure, I would think twice before to do it. Glad You work not so far from home, it’s definitely a huge plus! Thanks for sharing!🔥👍

Really enjoyed this one Alex. Looking forwards to the rest of the series.
I am just getting back into running with my pack on so I know I can do it when needed.
We are a family of four and my two kids are autistic. If a bad scenario were to occur one thing I know for sure I'd I need to be in the best physical condition I can be as the will be relying on me. That's my current goal.
Take care man. Appreciate what you do.
Thanks so much! Thanks also to have shared your personal situation, I'm sure you are gonna be ready for your family when it's needed !🤙
@AlexWander what's funny is over here in the UK you're seen as somewhat crazy for trying to plan for things going to shit. Like nothing could possibly ever go wrong. But when Covid hit, everyone panicked and it went crazy round here. That gave me my first hint of what would happen in a SHTF scenario.
We had a great demonstration of mass panicking during that period I agree!🤙🏻
Watching from Kenya 🇰🇪
