42. I worked with 2 guys who were 62. One acted like he was 80 and the other 35. Half of it is staying active and the other half is your state of mind. 🍻🇺🇲
Amen Pewy! I will be 70 in November and I get plenty of exercise on my horse farm. My Great Great Grandfather fought in the Civil War can home and farmed until he was 85 passing at 89. That wasn’t sitting on a John Deere it was behind a team of horses and a plow! Glad I’ve got his genes!
My husband and I are 59 and 64. We're stocked up for at least 3 years but also have chickens, and a huge farm. You dont have to be young to prep. My two sons are 35 and 40 they dont prep. I know more older preppers then young ones. You don't stop moving when you have a farm. You have to move constantly. Prepping is a part of our lives.
We grew up hearing stories of the great depression and WWII. We have second hand knowledge of what can easily happen. So many either don't believe it could happen or are too wrapped up in the latest thing to be concerned with history repeating.
I'm a 65 yr old disabled vet. In the last year, I've started a small business, taught a class about ham radio, written two books, performed in two plays, soloed at church, and been a caretaker for my elderly mother who lives with me. I don't have TIME to sit still and brood! There's SO MANY activities that need volunteers, clubs that need your help, community activities that would love to have you there! Just put yourself out there - you'll find new friends and things that will make you smile!
@Chris-Vee Amen! I have friends that are in there late 80s and I love spending time with them. This past Dec I learned how to render lard best Christmas gift ever 😊 on my way in about a hr to help put their garden in and yes I will learn something I do every time I am with them ❤
I'm a 79 year old Vietnam vet. I am independent although I do have a house keeper and a kid that mows my grass. Still capable of doing both but they need the money. Been prepping for years and practice with firearms and garden. However, I do need to exercise more. Staying active with groups is very important.
68 year old female veteran here. My attitude: God is not done with me yet. Had to deal with an aneurysm two separate times and the Lord still breathes life into me daily. Helping others gives me purpose and I think God uses me to plant seeds in non-believers
Ill say 45 ish my wifes Granny is 97 she gardens too and walks her dog cleans cooks your right moving is key all my uncles died in their 90s one did a huge garden up till 92 well basin you've reached your goal here brother great video amen
Jason, I too am one of your older viewers. At 66 years young I can’t do all the things I want. However, efforts I made earlier are paying dividends in our preparedness. Most importantly your kindness and encouragement for older folks is right on target. There are times when I feel irrelevant to a society that prizes youth. I have many things to share if asked. Thanks for your wisdom and support of us “silver saints”.
Youre spot on about keeping going. My granddad cut and hand split all the wood for his woodstove till he was 91 yrs old. All he had for heat was a woodstove, and he liked it really warm, so he split A LOT of wood! He had a stroke at 91 and wasnt able to use a chainsaw and splitting maul anymore. He died abiut a year later at 92. He was born 1913, so he lived through the great depression. He was tough as nails, and such a humble man. I sure wish he was still around!
Hi! I'm going to guess 37 years old. I enjoy your content! Stay safe and God Bless you and your family! I'm in my mid 50's and I exercise every weekend. Mostly walking and doing yoga. It's good for the body.
i have 3 kids, 2 boys and 1 girl. what makes me proud of my children is that they have become good people. no selfishness, willing to help other people, respect the elderly, care for all animals and all people.
71 female here. Still working full-time as a certified nursing assistant in a dementia unit. Helps me learn how to defend myself sometimes! Lol! Have a big garden, yard, flower beds, stack wood for the woodstove & about 2 yrs of food. 2 sons & 1 daughter, 7 grands who all say they know if shtf I'll be just fine & they won't have to worry!
I am arthritic, with several chronic illnesses, but I learned to pressure-can three years ago at age 67. I started doing research on shortages, etc. and am the prepper for most of the family. Thank Heaven, some are listening, but This "Old person" will be the one who has what many need.
I'm 53. I still workout with weights (albeit light), cardio (low impact) martial arts, and train with firearms with buddies. I participate in a mutual assistance group as well. Keep plugging along! Be as dangerous as possible.
Living around the Amish community. They continue work as long as they possible can. There is no so said retirement. This is the way I believe God wants us to live.
I have a memory of my mom (RIP) saying to my Gma (RIP), her mom, "Mom you should rest." Gma said, "I'll rest when I'm dead!" ..A body in motion tends to stay in motion...Y'all know the rest. It's good to be feisty. 🌸
I called my dad several years ago and he said that he couldn't talk to me right then, he was on a ladder painting his house.Hes 76 now, just texting with him and he said that the weather in northern California was very windy and that he needs to clean the leaves out of his swimming pool,I believe he still washes and waxed his own cars.
44. My grandmother had a flower garden and vegetable garden until she was 97 ! They don't make them like that any more. May the good Lord watch over you and your family and friends. Peace and Love 😊.
I’m guessing 36. Always enjoy the videos! Depression and hardship really bite but your positivity helps. Living in the moment is the hardest easy thing we have to do.
The key to your grandmother’s independence in life is not so much self dependence, but dependence upon GOD which is why she reads her Bible every day in a living manner! “God is our Strength and a very Present Help in times of need/trouble” (Psa. 46:1)
35? Busy being born or busy dying ? Then again when we take care of our loved ones in their last years, we loose track of whose who and we find our self alone and dying with them. Just saying it takes much forethought and thing is we become the best care givers as we get that old and know what to do. Shalom
My mother (72) recently helped my brother move his entire household of furniture. You can’t tell her to sit down, it keeps her going for sure. She thrives when someone needs her for something.
I'm old and physically frail, but still have a brain that can problem-solve. I know I will not make it on the road without a vehicle, so bugging out is OUT and bugging in is the plan. I walk, do a little bit of strength training, and have lost weight. Losing weight is the best thing I've done.
I've worked in long term care for most of my life. Our aged population are a treasure trove of stories and experiences, most would love nothing more than to have someone to talk with. Do them and yourself a favor by stopping by a nursing home and visiting with someone.
I'm 60 years old; not quite as limber and fast as I used to be, but can hold my own with folk a lot younger than I am. I started into the outdoor sports, fishing, shooting, hunting, camping, survival kills at my father's side when I was 10 years old, so that's a half century of practicing bushcraft, survival and self care (first aid) skills. I grew up in the townships, so we always had vegetable gardens, put up supplies, stockpiled the basics and canned preservatives. As a homeowner, over the years, I self taught myself basic home repair and construction projects like woodworking, masonry, basic electricity and plumbing. My little grey haired wife and I built a 20 x 30 deck in our back yard during Covid; for something to do. I just recently leather crafting and canvas work. Now add on to that, 40 years of work experience ranging from crop picking, working dairy farms, camp and restaurant cooking, IT consultant, and small business owner; in short a walking library of a full life's worth of experience, skills and more importantly, the kind of wisdom that only comes with age. My wife is 65 years old and is the same as me, with her crafting, sewing and gardening skills. We are both young at heart (took up scuba diving in our 50s, got our motorcycle licenses and bikes 2 years ago). I realize that in a really extended SHTF situation, and on on the surface, our age might make us a liability to some, but every village needs their elders to help guide and teach the next generation and pass on "the old ways". The only things we would ask of our community are, allow us our fair share from the fruits of our labor, and when the time comes, bury us together. Just one old fart's opinion.
50 years old here had to heart attacks and a mini stroke. Now day I have to watch what I am doing and not push myself so hard anymore. I do the best I can when I can if SHTF happends well I going to do what I have to do to stay alive and well.
40 but hate to admit it? Iam 54 come July, you are wise beyond your years regarding all these life lessons, stories and advice you offer! thx for sharing.
Your granny sounds awesome. I hope I can be like her. I am 58 yo female. I can’t wait to retire because I hardly have time to work. So much else to do! I’m in good physical and mental condition so fair, praise Yah. I am alone but have 3 adult children who are great and would help me anytime. Though I most definitely would not like to be dependent on anyone! A helping hand is fine but dependency is not for me. You look very young to me, 30? 🇺🇸
This old lady of 66 did learn a new trick of pressure canning, dehydrating and started gardening(will see how that goes especially with deer hanging around). I'd say 36 -37?
One problem us older folks see, feel, and are told is the opposite of what you want from your "buddy". Sometimes I understand the tears of the old commercial Indian warrior and seeing the land getting trashed. Even more than they show on TV.
You are 76 and I am 38. Reverse that. I am at about 10-15% off my peak. With all the surgeries and nerve damage it has been hard to keep up. I want to keep going but my body is not up to it. You are right about moving and the need to keep it up. My kids don’t want the burden,they are not in the faith. They are high flying and don’t want to be around an anchor. Your Grandmother is a very special lady. Keep her close emotionally and spiritually. The money we saved is what they want to control. Thank you for your service! And the fragile guys you hang out with, you know the ones with expensive water filters.
Yeah, Jason's in great shape but soon, the aches, pains, popping knees will make him realize that most older folks (me almost 64) just wear out. He'll keep movin and so will we, right?
I’m 62 years old. I used to be just like you…..active, strong. Now, after 5 knee surgeries, arthritis in both knees, I’m nothing like my former self. Anyway, Based on your energy, and your beard starting to turn grey, I’d guess 37.
Guessing 38 years old. I'm a 62 year old male. Exercise 4 hours a day in kung Fu , judo, weapons, walk my dog 1 1/2 hours everyday with a 80 lb back pack. Garden every year, cast lead projectiles, reload, firearms instructor, make edge weapons from scratch, hunt , fish , trap, carpenter by trade, can build anything from wood, build custom homes, kitchen cabinets, furniture etc, etc . People say I'm active like a 40 year old.
I'm a bit younger, but I can feel we have the same "fighting spirit." Anyway, this "Z" generation is so soft that they would be easily hurt by the criminals we have to deal with, so we have to intervene in the name of humanity. God bless you, brother!
I agree about 40 years old. I couple of years ago I helped a truck driver change a tire, when we finished I made him a cup of coffee on my Coleman stove and he asked me how old I was, when I told him I was 75 years old he simply didn’t believe me
At 67 I'm walking my dog 3 miles a day year round with a 20-27 pound pack and people think I'm a bit "off". An 80 pound pack, that's great. We shoot, I reload. We garden, have berry bushes and fruit trees. Wife cans, I assist. We are both getting an hour and a half to two hours a day exercise on a regular basis. Don't you feel bad for those people who say "I don't know what I would do if I retired, that's why I'm still working."
I have told my husband and his father in his 70s that they are worth more than just their job and years of work put in. They have value beyond that. Men as they get older struggle with that and need to feel useful and have purpose and I let them know what they are as a father and husband in itself is valuable. They have wisdom we need and have important role in the family and community. My father in law was SP guy for long time then over 35 years for GA power. They did their job working hard all those years and being provider and now deserve to take time and enjoy remaining years. Some people get moody when older and body doesn't work with what mind wants it to. We just have to be patient with ourselves and do best we can. Its a blessing having a sharp mind still when older.
Born in 65, You may call me elderly, I call me experienced, my experience will beat your knowledge every time. And it does no good if no one wants to hear it, the younger generation think they know everything, when in fact they know nothing
Your age? My beard had racing stripes of gray at 36. My wife, got her first grey hair at 58. By then mine was almost totally grey. I'd say you were between 39 and 45. I've heard old timers I worked with tell me I don't know what I would do if I retired. Best part of being over the hill is not having to get up when you don't want to. The second best part is all the stuff you can get done because you have the time, have built up skills, acquired the tools and resources. Last fall I scavenged 500 brick sized pavers and built a raised herb bed for my wife. This spring I've planted and watered 15 new berry bushes and another apple tree. I've got a four year old grape vine that I am learning on. The garden is fully planted, tomatoes are chest high, the broccoli is deep green and tastes great. Potatoes are almost waist high. The leaf lettuce, radishes, yarrow and lavender are being harvested already. I'm walking the dog over 3 miles a day while wearing a 20+pound pack. Wife and I do a lot together, home repairs, painting, fishing, gardening, shooting, cooking, making primitive jewelry, bicycle, play with the dog. We stay in touch with friends and family by letters, emails and phone calls. Facebook and the rest of that sucks, it is so shallow. he world, the economy, the local schools, here's my take, I have gotten to the point where I only care about things I can influence. I've only got so much give a shit left. I can't give a shit about the president, the economy. I've got to give a shit about the garden, about my wife, about laundry. Just tonight I fixed a water leak that we noticed last night after the hardware stores closed. My wife assisted and it would have sucked doing it alone in that dark area. Our neighbors grandson wants to polish some rocks, so I've got to set up a couple rocks for him to do the final polish on the cabbing machine. While I am not on the worship team at church I still go to practice on Wednesday nights and play along on mandolin and harmonica. The drummer has seen me walking my dog and wants to start walking with me when his job with the school ends in a week. I'm going to bed, tomorrow we are going fishing after I do a quick mile with the dog. Hopefully we come home with some fish to fillet, vacuum seal and freeze. Then after supper I can get a couple miles in with him to keep up with the 20+ miles a week we are doing lately.
On this front im glad i grew up when I did, it wasn't unusual to talk to older non family folks when I was a kid. I met some real characters, you didn't always learn from what they directly said to you and sometimes the lesson didn't sink in until years later when you were old enough to understand. I miss those people, character and experience like that is hard won and i was honoured to be able to spend a little time with them.
I’d guess you to be 37-39 years old. This year is a big one for me, but I keep at things. Thanks for sharing the wealth of knowledge and information on this channel. Been following you for years.
I am 55 years old I want to do more things with my grandchildren and teach them about bushcraft survival and spending more time in mothers nature and sted of working the rest of my life. I wish I had a job like this and be at peace and do what I want to do and teaching bushcraft survival and prepping and then working at a crappie job and having people telling you this is not done right or you didn't do this
Have you ever compete in the Flying Pig Marathon.? What a great chat Jason. Thank you. Would it okay for us to use this particular segment for future use? Our girls do volunteer work so this may be a great project for them. They also love the Grandma vid that you did, theirs have passed but still remember what was taught. Listening to you just brings back that appreciation of the knowledge and path not taken. Why pay for therapy when we got On3. Cheers cobber from Australia.
At 75 I am running how to garden. Last fall was the first time we’re in a different time that we grow because summers too hot to grow here where I live in Arizona. Yes I love doing off Roading used to sickles when I was younger, I was a pilot. I don’t do that, but I did go back to Side-by-side because it was on a motorcycle at my age. I did learn how to make bread this year because I was really strong physically and delivered and picked up our houses and pumped out houses and serviced our houses and delivered out houses. My husband and I were in the outhouse. Now I have trouble picking up 25 pounds let alone 20. And I get frustrated because physically I’m not giving up things. I’m a little more cautious about doing some things because of the craziness of the world. But if I really wanna go somewhere, I’m on my way. I was a truck driver too, so I have no problemWould take 55 feet into the Grand Canyon. Somebody brought it for us. So yes, I can still do all that. I just have a little trouble pulling the pan these days so I haven’t been pulling the fifth wheel for a couple years only because I have trouble with my strength to pull the pen. But I can’t find a man to do it. But the kids said they would bring it up there for me if I want it because I gave the trailer to them. But I still have that three-quarter ton diesel truck that pulls that trailer still. And I do drive that speed stick shift. And yes, I know how to drive a truck with a brownie that’s two gear shifts 4 to 4. I don’t drive a truck any longer, but I had all the things I’ve done you cannot believe. The things that I have.normally not a traditional thing to do. But I did. And I did become a chaplain in 2012. And I did really really enjoy being out as a disaster Chaplain. But can’t quite physically do it now but I’m still a Chaplain
Your absolutely right, you dont have to go to work everyday, but stay active dang it, I went back to work 1 day a week and glad I did. Work on my farm everyday ,help my neighbors. 68 y/o is not time to quit.
Im gonna say about my age I just turned 41. Maybe few years younger. I loved your video with granny. She reminds me of mine we just lost in last couple years. Always said she would out live us all. Im retired military but keep active on farm and in general. I see more younger people in way worse physically and in health than myself and my husband. He cant keep guys at work because cant keep up physically or with the elements and environments even if much younger. My parents are in late 50s and more active than lot of younger people. They prefer to be busy than watch tv or online.
Jason, I'll say you're 35 not because you look it, but because I've heard you talk about your previous life in california, how long you worked for that company, moving to Georgia and starting again. And also your kids ages.
34-37 Im 55 and spent 16 years in the military 100% disabled combat veteran I struggle as well because I have so many skills and a lot of experience It gets frustrating for me at times as I cannot physically do everything I’d like to and enjoyed previously I generally spend my time with other veterans although I do try and pass at the very least my extensive knowledge and experiences on to other in hopes that it will benefit them However, it appears that more and more there are less receptive to that particular skill set which is upsetting because it would benefit them to learn them particularly in the current times we find ourselves in Some just choose to believe it will never affect them ✌️🇺🇸
My guess is that you’re in your mid forties. I’m 65 and I have been a working man since I was 16. My body now shows the wear and tear of my years. I can’t do the things I used to the way I used to do them but I know how to improvise and adapt. When I go hiking/camping I can’t carry a pack because of my knee so I use a game cart to haul my gear. My point is if there’s a will there’s a way to get it done. Getting old is inevitable, giving up is not an option. Never give up on life while you’re still alive because that’s when you die before your time.
What do you do? My first thought was smithing, but that's not that rare, then I thought thatching, that's rare. Wife and I garden, raise fruit and can, shoot, reload, fish, fillet ,em, take care of the house. Just tonight we fixed a leak.
41 is my guess. I love the rural elders around here. They are so funny. Hubby got into bees, 80+ elder got interested, built his box and hubby brought him the filler. Think we have his second box.. we'll see. Anyway, it is.just awesome. Heard another one talking about his garden this morning.. "dang, you go uncle joe!" Early season physically hurts. I sent seed potatoes up to grandma.. mom put like 20 in the same grow bag. Dang.. gonna need to split that up. I dont travel due to farm. I should have kbown that was gonna happen tho.. 😂 last pecan harvest a 90 year up drove 40 minutes several times a week to work at picki g up pecans and disbursed them "shelled" to shut ins. And even gave me some back. 10 trees is way too much to handle and we loved seeing him drive up. ❤
63 almost 64 ex recce guy (doesn't matter now mind you)... I learned to can from my grandmother...cook from my Dad... I tried to pass this to mine .. I am a Canadian I can shoot and drive a truck .. work Ham radio... and yes garden. I do 2 to 3 Klm a day carrying a 25 pound pack ... (PS how do I want go out well sleeping and in gods hand)...
I was doing that distance walking my dog while wearing a pack. Lately it has been around 5 to 6 km/day but it took a while to get to this point. I've become a bit of a celebrity in this small town. That old guy with the dog and backpack. Keep going buddy.
When i go, i want it to be like my granddad, peacefully in my sleep. Not like the other 3 people in the car, screaming and crying as it went over the cliff…
Well.. If ya stop moving, you're done. My Grandpa worked his farm till 95 years old, then he moved on.. I'm in my 50's still do my pushups and pull ups. Shoot USPSA with guys in their 70's.. Eat clean and stay active, always have a job to do 👍
I'm guessing....40-42 yrs old. You're just a young pup, I just turned 52 last month (just a number to me and nothing else!) That's what I've always said....you stop, you die! Former EMT (and getting back into EMS with my local volunteer FD) and so many times when I would do transports (both wheelchair and litter/BLS)...I'd talk with them or read their charts I learned one key point that they pretty much all centered around. Once they retired, they cut down on doing 'everything'. I guess they thought that since they didn't have to work anymore, they could just sit back and literally do 'nothing'. Then they put on a little weight, their body starts to 'stiffen up' and they lose their flexibility/balance. The minor illness they maybe had prior to retiring has gotten worse now. They cut out eating (very common to lose the sense of taste, so why eat if I can't taste it, or just don't want to cook anymore) and lose weight, but it's muscle mass since they're not doing any exercising, or weight-bearing movements to keep the muscles/bones strong. Or they just gorge on nothing but sweets or already-prepared foods (again, this is easier than actually cooking), drink more (alcohol), or not drink enough water/juice and their health starts to decline. They suddenly got sick/a disease suddenly pops up. Now they're on meds, and after awhile, taking additional meds to counteract the side effects. The one sickness turns into a secondary and third sickness that really starts the spiral down in health. Now on many more meds. They cannot take care of themselves, (trouble walking/dressing themselves/bathing) and tried to live with family but after awhile they need 24/7 care and now in a nursing home after several trips to the hospital because their health has really deteriorated. I've seen it way, way too often and try my best to tell those that are older than myself that you have to keep active in anything that keeps them moving, keep them focused on staying strong and flexible. I absolutely will NOT end up like that! I'll be working/moving/exercising till the day I pass from this Earth!!
If you don't mind me asking, where are your parents now? Live with you or by themselves? If they're not living with you, time to make that change. No better way to teach your kids. I'm from India and we all love together. That's what makes the family strong. Plus the elders take care of the kids eat better than we can. They have all the experience
I’m guessing… 39. I’m 58 but look and feel 42-45, Not my opinion, everyone that sees and knows me. It’s mostly a state of mind and some exercise. I enjoy life and look forward not the past. Too many “remember when” makes you old(state of mind).
This is a compliment 👉 “I think you have an old soul” older in mind (Wise), but chronologically best educated guess “early to mid-30s”⁉️ I'm in my 60s & from my perspective I wish we had more young men who were like you.
I would say you're no more than forty five. I'll be eighty one in July. Still gardening and canning. Not in real good shape anymore but i won't quit. Really into herbal remedies.
@@charlessalmond7076 I have been going to the same church for over 10 years. I am the treasurer. I get the same treatment there as everywhere else. Everyone thinks I am an idiot! One man there agrees with me but he is not doing anything. He said he would just come to my place when things get bad, I told him without contributing it would not be advisable.
So many preppers are loners because they fear crowds showing up at their door. But I am sure there are at least 5% of the people in town that prep for at least routine disasters and shortages.
I agree with you about relying on our children as we get older but the problem is that this government and preceding governments have made it where our children can’t even afford to take care of themselves and are moving back home with their parents
Hey serious question... Where did the rapture theology come from? The inner-webs say it has only been taught since like the 1830's and only in America. Is that true? As a life long agnostic who only now is considering God, I'm just frustrated by Christians who don't think they have to prep because of this Rapture idea.
@@kanejakejimmy Several places I believe but am asking my daughter as she knows the Bible well. I will say that I certainly hope to be called up by Jesus. My faith and discussions with the Lord have grown in recent years. The heart is VERY close to the soul. My daughter says Revelations.
45 I would guess. Almost 60 here. Use it or lose it. I’m prepping for my kids and grandkids. I could die tomorrow or not for many years. Who knows. Prepping for me is about future generations. I’ve had an awesome life so whenever I’m called home is just fine.
42. I worked with 2 guys who were 62. One acted like he was 80 and the other 35. Half of it is staying active and the other half is your state of mind. 🍻🇺🇲
Amen Pewy! I will be 70 in November and I get plenty of exercise on my horse farm. My Great Great Grandfather fought in the Civil War can home and farmed until he was 85 passing at 89.
That wasn’t sitting on a John Deere it was behind a team of horses and a plow! Glad I’ve got his genes!
My husband and I are 59 and 64. We're stocked up for at least 3 years but also have chickens, and a huge farm. You dont have to be young to prep.
My two sons are 35 and 40 they dont prep. I know more older preppers then young ones.
You don't stop moving when you have a farm. You have to move constantly. Prepping is a part of our lives.
You found the secret! By the time most of us figure out that we need to do what you have done, there's not enough time or money.
We grew up hearing stories of the great depression and WWII. We have second hand knowledge of what can easily happen. So many either don't believe it could happen or are too wrapped up in the latest thing to be concerned with history repeating.
I'm a 65 yr old disabled vet. In the last year, I've started a small business, taught a class about ham radio, written two books, performed in two plays, soloed at church, and been a caretaker for my elderly mother who lives with me. I don't have TIME to sit still and brood! There's SO MANY activities that need volunteers, clubs that need your help, community activities that would love to have you there! Just put yourself out there - you'll find new friends and things that will make you smile!
You have survived and discovered a valuable secret. Thanks for sharing!
Whenever an older person dies, a library closes its doors
@Chris-Vee Amen! I have friends that are in there late 80s and I love spending time with them. This past Dec I learned how to render lard best Christmas gift ever 😊 on my way in about a hr to help put their garden in and yes I will learn something I do every time I am with them ❤
Cuz only old people use libraries! Good one! ❤
38
I'm guessing 38, 39 years old. I"m 66 years old. And I do appreciate your content, Survival Dispatch is one channel I trust. Thank you
my guess too, im 58
I'm a 79 year old Vietnam vet. I am independent although I do have a house keeper and a kid that mows my grass. Still capable of doing both but they need the money. Been prepping for years and practice with firearms and garden. However, I do need to exercise more. Staying active with groups is very important.
Absolutely! Good for you!!!
When asked how he does it, Clint Eastwood replied "I just get up every morning and go out. And I don’t let the old man in."
68 year old female veteran here. My attitude: God is not done with me yet. Had to deal with an aneurysm two separate times and the Lord still breathes life into me daily. Helping others gives me purpose and I think God uses me to plant seeds in non-believers
Amen to that. Keep fighting the good fight. Thank you for your services
Ill say 45 ish my wifes Granny is 97 she gardens too and walks her dog cleans cooks your right moving is key all my uncles died in their 90s one did a huge garden up till 92 well basin you've reached your goal here brother great video amen
Jason, I too am one of your older viewers. At 66 years young I can’t do all the things I want. However, efforts I made earlier are paying dividends in our preparedness. Most importantly your kindness and encouragement for older folks is right on target. There are times when I feel irrelevant to a society that prizes youth. I have many things to share if asked. Thanks for your wisdom and support of us “silver saints”.
Great job! I'm 51 and just lost 65 pounds in the last 15 months. It's so much better and easier to garden / do yard work this summer!
It was worth it!
Congratulations
😀
Way to go! 🎉
Youre spot on about keeping going. My granddad cut and hand split all the wood for his woodstove till he was 91 yrs old. All he had for heat was a woodstove, and he liked it really warm, so he split A LOT of wood! He had a stroke at 91 and wasnt able to use a chainsaw and splitting maul anymore. He died abiut a year later at 92. He was born 1913, so he lived through the great depression. He was tough as nails, and such a humble man. I sure wish he was still around!
Hi! I'm going to guess 37 years old. I enjoy your content! Stay safe and God Bless you and your family! I'm in my mid 50's and I exercise every weekend. Mostly walking and doing yoga. It's good for the body.
i have 3 kids, 2 boys and 1 girl. what makes me proud of my children is that they have become good people. no selfishness, willing to help other people, respect the elderly, care for all animals and all people.
71 female here. Still working full-time as a certified nursing assistant in a dementia unit. Helps me learn how to defend myself sometimes! Lol!
Have a big garden, yard, flower beds, stack wood for the woodstove & about 2 yrs of food. 2 sons & 1 daughter, 7 grands who all say they know if shtf I'll be just fine & they won't have to worry!
You go girl!
I am arthritic, with several chronic illnesses, but I learned to pressure-can three years ago at age 67. I started doing research on shortages, etc. and am the prepper for most of the family. Thank Heaven, some are listening, but This "Old person" will be the one who has what many need.
I'm 53. I still workout with weights (albeit light), cardio (low impact) martial arts, and train with firearms with buddies. I participate in a mutual assistance group as well. Keep plugging along! Be as dangerous as possible.
Love it!!
Living around the Amish community. They continue work as long as they possible can. There is no so said retirement. This is the way I believe God wants us to live.
I'm 64 and me and some of my prepper friends have Bible study every month
I have a memory of my mom (RIP) saying to my Gma (RIP), her mom, "Mom you should rest." Gma said, "I'll rest when I'm dead!" ..A body in motion tends to stay in motion...Y'all know the rest. It's good to be feisty. 🌸
I called my dad several years ago and he said that he couldn't talk to me right then, he was on a ladder painting his house.Hes 76 now, just texting with him and he said that the weather in northern California was very windy and that he needs to clean the leaves out of his swimming pool,I believe he still washes and waxed his own cars.

44. My grandmother had a flower garden and vegetable garden until she was 97 ! They don't make them like that any more. May the good Lord watch over you and your family and friends. Peace and Love 😊.
I’m guessing 36.
Always enjoy the videos!
Depression and hardship really bite but your positivity helps. Living in the moment is the hardest easy thing we have to do.
My wife always says, "when you rest, you rust."
The key to your grandmother’s independence in life is not so much self dependence, but dependence upon GOD which is why she reads her Bible every day in a living manner! “God is our Strength and a very Present Help in times of need/trouble” (Psa. 46:1)
35?
Busy being born or busy dying ?
Then again when we take care of our loved ones in their last years, we loose track of whose who and we find our self alone and dying with them. Just saying it takes much forethought and thing is we become the best care givers as we get that old and know what to do.
Shalom
My mother (72) recently helped my brother move his entire household of furniture. You can’t tell her to sit down, it keeps her going for sure. She thrives when someone needs her for something.
I'm old and physically frail, but still have a brain that can problem-solve. I know I will not make it on the road without a vehicle, so bugging out is OUT and bugging in is the plan. I walk, do a little bit of strength training, and have lost weight. Losing weight is the best thing I've done.
Hang in there buddy! I started walking after retiring almost 4 years ago. I'm closing in on 3500 miles total in that time.

I've worked in long term care for most of my life. Our aged population are a treasure trove of stories and experiences, most would love nothing more than to have someone to talk with. Do them and yourself a favor by stopping by a nursing home and visiting with someone.
Wife is a CNA. Her charge is 92 and flew in Korea and Vietnam. His dementia kicked in, told her about the M60 machine gun hidden in the attic 😂😮.
Older generations know how to do things without technology. That’s valuable
I'm 60 years old; not quite as limber and fast as I used to be, but can hold my own with folk a lot younger than I am. I started into the outdoor sports, fishing, shooting, hunting, camping, survival kills at my father's side when I was 10 years old, so that's a half century of practicing bushcraft, survival and self care (first aid) skills. I grew up in the townships, so we always had vegetable gardens, put up supplies, stockpiled the basics and canned preservatives. As a homeowner, over the years, I self taught myself basic home repair and construction projects like woodworking, masonry, basic electricity and plumbing. My little grey haired wife and I built a 20 x 30 deck in our back yard during Covid; for something to do. I just recently leather crafting and canvas work.
Now add on to that, 40 years of work experience ranging from crop picking, working dairy farms, camp and restaurant cooking, IT consultant, and small business owner; in short a walking library of a full life's worth of experience, skills and more importantly, the kind of wisdom that only comes with age. My wife is 65 years old and is the same as me, with her crafting, sewing and gardening skills. We are both young at heart (took up scuba diving in our 50s, got our motorcycle licenses and bikes 2 years ago). I realize that in a really extended SHTF situation, and on on the surface, our age might make us a liability to some, but every village needs their elders to help guide and teach the next generation and pass on "the old ways". The only things we would ask of our community are, allow us our fair share from the fruits of our labor, and when the time comes, bury us together. Just one old fart's opinion.
50 years old here had to heart attacks and a mini stroke. Now day I have to watch what I am doing and not push myself so hard anymore. I do the best I can when I can if SHTF happends well I going to do what I have to do to stay alive and well.
40 but hate to admit it? Iam 54 come July, you are wise beyond your years regarding all these life lessons, stories and advice you offer! thx for sharing.
Ex Armoured Infantry Officer of the Dutch Army,.. 48 years old,... not 24 anymore,.....
I'm 60 and can still tap out my 25 year old son
That reminds me. Can't wait to see Tyson vs Paul! Tysons gonna kill that young man.
Your granny sounds awesome. I hope I can be like her. I am 58 yo female. I can’t wait to retire because I hardly have time to work. So much else to do! I’m in good physical and mental condition so fair, praise Yah. I am alone but have 3 adult children who are great and would help me anytime. Though I most definitely would not like to be dependent on anyone! A helping hand is fine but dependency is not for me. You look very young to me, 30? 🇺🇸
Suckup! LOL! JK!
Younger than me.
This old lady of 66 did learn a new trick of pressure canning, dehydrating and started gardening(will see how that goes especially with deer hanging around). I'd say 36 -37?
One problem us older folks see, feel, and are told is the opposite of what you want from your "buddy". Sometimes I understand the tears of the old commercial Indian warrior and seeing the land getting trashed. Even more than they show on TV.
You are 76 and I am 38. Reverse that. I am at about 10-15% off my peak. With all the surgeries and nerve damage it has been hard to keep up. I want to keep going but my body is not up to it. You are right about moving and the need to keep it up. My kids don’t want the burden,they are not in the faith. They are high flying and don’t want to be around an anchor. Your Grandmother is a very special lady. Keep her close emotionally and spiritually. The money we saved is what they want to control. Thank you for your service! And the fragile guys you hang out with, you know the ones with expensive water filters.
Guessing you are 43? Yes, you are still young 😊. I am a 61 year old lady, and appreciate your show.
Turning 50. And everything hurts more, and takes longer to heal.
Yeah, Jason's in great shape but soon, the aches, pains, popping knees will make him realize that most older folks (me almost 64) just wear out. He'll keep movin and so will we, right?
Comparison is the thief of joy…. Great message today
My great grandmother died splitting wood at 98!!
Here I am at 37, walking crooked after a day of landscaping my yard.
Your grandfather was a stud. It’s never too late to be like him. I admire my grandfather. He was my hero
Great message.
I’m 62 years old. I used to be just like you…..active, strong. Now, after 5 knee surgeries, arthritis in both knees, I’m nothing like my former self. Anyway, Based on your energy, and your beard starting to turn grey, I’d guess 37.
thank you sir. i am 87 in wheelchair . do longer drive . enjoy every day . thanks again for the fine advice . god bless
35, and I am a 72 YO vet and relativly active, I volunteer for for a lot of groups, Legion,CERT, Skywarn and a couple of paid side jobs.
I'm about to hit 60. Thank you for doing this video.
Given your children's ages, I'd say mid thirties.
Guessing 38 years old.
I'm a 62 year old male.
Exercise 4 hours a day in kung Fu , judo, weapons, walk my dog 1 1/2 hours everyday with a 80 lb back pack.
Garden every year, cast lead projectiles, reload, firearms instructor, make edge weapons from scratch, hunt , fish , trap, carpenter by trade, can build anything from wood, build custom homes, kitchen cabinets, furniture etc, etc .
People say I'm active like a 40 year old.
I'm a bit younger, but I can feel we have the same "fighting spirit." Anyway, this "Z" generation is so soft that they would be easily hurt by the criminals we have to deal with, so we have to intervene in the name of humanity. God bless you, brother!
Good for you guys. God has kept you fit and able to help others not as able as you are. 🫡
I agree about 40 years old. I couple of years ago I helped a truck driver change a tire, when we finished I made him a cup of coffee on my Coleman stove and he asked me how old I was, when I told him I was 75 years old he simply didn’t believe me
At 67 I'm walking my dog 3 miles a day year round with a 20-27 pound pack and people think I'm a bit "off". An 80 pound pack, that's great. We shoot, I reload. We garden, have berry bushes and fruit trees. Wife cans, I assist. We are both getting an hour and a half to two hours a day exercise on a regular basis.
Don't you feel bad for those people who say "I don't know what I would do if I retired, that's why I'm still working."
@@phild8095 stay active as long as you can folks , I will rest one day when I pass away.
Resting in peace hopefully!
56.. here . probably never been in better shape..D2 Welder by Trade ..got the NV Training Tools BRING IT 💥🙏🏼✝️🦅🇺🇲
I have told my husband and his father in his 70s that they are worth more than just their job and years of work put in. They have value beyond that. Men as they get older struggle with that and need to feel useful and have purpose and I let them know what they are as a father and husband in itself is valuable. They have wisdom we need and have important role in the family and community. My father in law was SP guy for long time then over 35 years for GA power. They did their job working hard all those years and being provider and now deserve to take time and enjoy remaining years. Some people get moody when older and body doesn't work with what mind wants it to. We just have to be patient with ourselves and do best we can. Its a blessing having a sharp mind still when older.
Born in 65, You may call me elderly, I call me experienced, my experience will beat your knowledge every time. And it does no good if no one wants to hear it, the younger generation think they know everything, when in fact they know nothing
Your age? My beard had racing stripes of gray at 36. My wife, got her first grey hair at 58. By then mine was almost totally grey. I'd say you were between 39 and 45.
I've heard old timers I worked with tell me I don't know what I would do if I retired.
Best part of being over the hill is not having to get up when you don't want to.
The second best part is all the stuff you can get done because you have the time, have built up skills, acquired the tools and resources.
Last fall I scavenged 500 brick sized pavers and built a raised herb bed for my wife. This spring I've planted and watered 15 new berry bushes and another apple tree. I've got a four year old grape vine that I am learning on. The garden is fully planted, tomatoes are chest high, the broccoli is deep green and tastes great. Potatoes are almost waist high. The leaf lettuce, radishes, yarrow and lavender are being harvested already. I'm walking the dog over 3 miles a day while wearing a 20+pound pack.
Wife and I do a lot together, home repairs, painting, fishing, gardening, shooting, cooking, making primitive jewelry, bicycle, play with the dog. We stay in touch with friends and family by letters, emails and phone calls. Facebook and the rest of that sucks, it is so shallow.
he world, the economy, the local schools, here's my take, I have gotten to the point where I only care about things I can influence. I've only got so much give a shit left. I can't give a shit about the president, the economy. I've got to give a shit about the garden, about my wife, about laundry. Just tonight I fixed a water leak that we noticed last night after the hardware stores closed. My wife assisted and it would have sucked doing it alone in that dark area. Our neighbors grandson wants to polish some rocks, so I've got to set up a couple rocks for him to do the final polish on the cabbing machine. While I am not on the worship team at church I still go to practice on Wednesday nights and play along on mandolin and harmonica. The drummer has seen me walking my dog and wants to start walking with me when his job with the school ends in a week.
I'm going to bed, tomorrow we are going fishing after I do a quick mile with the dog. Hopefully we come home with some fish to fillet, vacuum seal and freeze. Then after supper I can get a couple miles in with him to keep up with the 20+ miles a week we are doing lately.
I’m in my early 60s and took 8 hours climbing to the top of a mesa (3 miles 8-11%) took 2 trips to get my gear up there. But I got it done
Preach it!
On this front im glad i grew up when I did, it wasn't unusual to talk to older non family folks when I was a kid. I met some real characters, you didn't always learn from what they directly said to you and sometimes the lesson didn't sink in until years later when you were old enough to understand. I miss those people, character and experience like that is hard won and i was honoured to be able to spend a little time with them.
I’d guess you to be 37-39 years old. This year is a big one for me, but I keep at things.
Thanks for sharing the wealth of knowledge and information on this channel. Been following you for years.
Good talk. Motivational & appreciated.
Work through the pain is my motto.
🙏The blessing way🦅
I am 55 years old I want to do more things with my grandchildren and teach them about bushcraft survival and spending more time in mothers nature and sted of working the rest of my life. I wish I had a job like this and be at peace and do what I want to do and teaching bushcraft survival and prepping and then working at a crappie job and having people telling you this is not done right or you didn't do this
My guess is 43. Really like your content and I subscribed to your personal channel too.
Why do I feel this.
Have you ever compete in the Flying Pig Marathon.? What a great chat Jason. Thank you. Would it okay for us to use this particular segment for future use? Our girls do volunteer work so this may be a great project for them. They also love the Grandma vid that you did, theirs have passed but still remember what was taught. Listening to you just brings back that appreciation of the knowledge and path not taken. Why pay for therapy when we got On3. Cheers cobber from Australia.
At 75 I am running how to garden. Last fall was the first time we’re in a different time that we grow because summers too hot to grow here where I live in Arizona. Yes I love doing off Roading used to sickles when I was younger, I was a pilot. I don’t do that, but I did go back to Side-by-side because it was on a motorcycle at my age. I did learn how to make bread this year because I was really strong physically and delivered and picked up our houses and pumped out houses and serviced our houses and delivered out houses. My husband and I were in the outhouse. Now I have trouble picking up 25 pounds let alone 20. And I get frustrated because physically I’m not giving up things. I’m a little more cautious about doing some things because of the craziness of the world. But if I really wanna go somewhere, I’m on my way. I was a truck driver too, so I have no problemWould take 55 feet into the Grand Canyon. Somebody brought it for us. So yes, I can still do all that. I just have a little trouble pulling the pan these days so I haven’t been pulling the fifth wheel for a couple years only because I have trouble with my strength to pull the pen. But I can’t find a man to do it. But the kids said they would bring it up there for me if I want it because I gave the trailer to them. But I still have that three-quarter ton diesel truck that pulls that trailer still. And I do drive that speed stick shift. And yes, I know how to drive a truck with a brownie that’s two gear shifts 4 to 4. I don’t drive a truck any longer, but I had all the things I’ve done you cannot believe. The things that I have.normally not a traditional thing to do. But I did. And I did become a chaplain in 2012. And I did really really enjoy being out as a disaster Chaplain. But can’t quite physically do it now but I’m still a Chaplain
Your absolutely right, you dont have to go to work everyday, but stay active dang it, I went back to work 1 day a week and glad I did. Work on my farm everyday ,help my neighbors. 68 y/o is not time to quit.
Im gonna say about my age I just turned 41. Maybe few years younger. I loved your video with granny. She reminds me of mine we just lost in last couple years. Always said she would out live us all. Im retired military but keep active on farm and in general. I see more younger people in way worse physically and in health than myself and my husband. He cant keep guys at work because cant keep up physically or with the elements and environments even if much younger. My parents are in late 50s and more active than lot of younger people. They prefer to be busy than watch tv or online.
You look young to me 20’s to early 30’s. Nice show! ♥️🇺🇸♥️
Jason, I'll say you're 35 not because you look it, but because I've heard you talk about your previous life in california, how long you worked for that company, moving to Georgia and starting again. And also your kids ages.
34-37
Im 55 and spent 16 years in the military
100% disabled combat veteran
I struggle as well because I have so many skills and a lot of experience
It gets frustrating for me at times as I cannot physically do everything I’d like to and enjoyed previously
I generally spend my time with other veterans although I do try and pass at the very least my extensive knowledge and experiences on to other in hopes that it will benefit them
However, it appears that more and more there are less receptive to that particular skill set which is upsetting because it would benefit them to learn them particularly in the current times we find ourselves in
Some just choose to believe it will never affect them ✌️🇺🇸
Im 70 and take classes at our local college. Trying to out think a 20 something brain will keep you on your toes. I recommend it for everyone.
My guess is that you’re in your mid forties. I’m 65 and I have been a working man since I was 16. My body now shows the wear and tear of my years. I can’t do the things I used to the way I used to do them but I know how to improvise and adapt. When I go hiking/camping I can’t carry a pack because of my knee so I use a game cart to haul my gear. My point is if there’s a will there’s a way to get it done. Getting old is inevitable, giving up is not an option. Never give up on life while you’re still alive because that’s when you die before your time.
40ish I'm glad I started long ago no way I could get to where Im at starting from now
71 and going strong...maybe can't do a marathon, but certain can take care of matters, (Experience and smarts.)
#Dontpi$$offoldpeople
Yep.
Always good stuff.
I have a rare old world trade and need to pass it on to more people than just my son. I'm 44, was very hard on my body and it's catching up.
What do you do? My first thought was smithing, but that's not that rare, then I thought thatching, that's rare.
Wife and I garden, raise fruit and can, shoot, reload, fish, fillet ,em, take care of the house. Just tonight we fixed a leak.
I learn something everytime I see one of your videos. Thankyou.
41 is my guess. I love the rural elders around here. They are so funny. Hubby got into bees, 80+ elder got interested, built his box and hubby brought him the filler. Think we have his second box.. we'll see. Anyway, it is.just awesome. Heard another one talking about his garden this morning.. "dang, you go uncle joe!" Early season physically hurts. I sent seed potatoes up to grandma.. mom put like 20 in the same grow bag. Dang.. gonna need to split that up. I dont travel due to farm. I should have kbown that was gonna happen tho.. 😂 last pecan harvest a 90 year up drove 40 minutes several times a week to work at picki g up pecans and disbursed them "shelled" to shut ins. And even gave me some back. 10 trees is way too much to handle and we loved seeing him drive up. ❤
I'm guessing you're around 34y.o. I'm 56 soon and always on the move. Thanks for the pep talk.
63 almost 64 ex recce guy (doesn't matter now mind you)... I learned to can from my grandmother...cook from my Dad... I tried to pass this to mine .. I am a Canadian I can shoot and drive a truck .. work Ham radio... and yes garden. I do 2 to 3 Klm a day carrying a 25 pound pack ... (PS how do I want go out well sleeping and in gods hand)...
I was doing that distance walking my dog while wearing a pack. Lately it has been around 5 to 6 km/day but it took a while to get to this point. I've become a bit of a celebrity in this small town. That old guy with the dog and backpack.
Keep going buddy.
@@phild8095 awesome and yes we got this eh
YAHUAH protects the elderly just have faith like Moses and Abraham and He will give you all you need to survive.
When i go, i want it to be like my granddad, peacefully in my sleep. Not like the other 3 people in the car, screaming and crying as it went over the cliff…
Well.. If ya stop moving, you're done. My Grandpa worked his farm till 95 years old, then he moved on.. I'm in my 50's still do my pushups and pull ups. Shoot USPSA with guys in their 70's..
Eat clean and stay active, always have a job to do 👍
I'm guessing....40-42 yrs old. You're just a young pup, I just turned 52 last month (just a number to me and nothing else!) That's what I've always said....you stop, you die! Former EMT (and getting back into EMS with my local volunteer FD) and so many times when I would do transports (both wheelchair and litter/BLS)...I'd talk with them or read their charts I learned one key point that they pretty much all centered around. Once they retired, they cut down on doing 'everything'. I guess they thought that since they didn't have to work anymore, they could just sit back and literally do 'nothing'. Then they put on a little weight, their body starts to 'stiffen up' and they lose their flexibility/balance. The minor illness they maybe had prior to retiring has gotten worse now. They cut out eating (very common to lose the sense of taste, so why eat if I can't taste it, or just don't want to cook anymore) and lose weight, but it's muscle mass since they're not doing any exercising, or weight-bearing movements to keep the muscles/bones strong. Or they just gorge on nothing but sweets or already-prepared foods (again, this is easier than actually cooking), drink more (alcohol), or not drink enough water/juice and their health starts to decline. They suddenly got sick/a disease suddenly pops up. Now they're on meds, and after awhile, taking additional meds to counteract the side effects. The one sickness turns into a secondary and third sickness that really starts the spiral down in health. Now on many more meds. They cannot take care of themselves, (trouble walking/dressing themselves/bathing) and tried to live with family but after awhile they need 24/7 care and now in a nursing home after several trips to the hospital because their health has really deteriorated. I've seen it way, way too often and try my best to tell those that are older than myself that you have to keep active in anything that keeps them moving, keep them focused on staying strong and flexible. I absolutely will NOT end up like that! I'll be working/moving/exercising till the day I pass from this Earth!!
If you don't mind me asking, where are your parents now? Live with you or by themselves? If they're not living with you, time to make that change. No better way to teach your kids. I'm from India and we all love together. That's what makes the family strong. Plus the elders take care of the kids eat better than we can. They have all the experience
My guess is 42.
I’m guessing… 39.
I’m 58 but look and feel 42-45,
Not my opinion, everyone that sees and knows me.
It’s mostly a state of mind and some exercise. I enjoy life and look forward not the past.
Too many “remember when” makes you old(state of mind).
This is a compliment 👉 “I think you have an old soul” older in mind (Wise), but chronologically best educated guess “early to mid-30s”⁉️ I'm in my 60s & from my perspective I wish we had more young men who were like you.
I would say you're no more than forty five. I'll be eighty one in July. Still gardening and canning. Not in real good shape anymore but i won't quit. Really into herbal remedies.
69... Still active, but I don't have the energy I used to...
My mother turns 90 this summer.
Your appearance reminds me of my late husband when we met. He was 42.
I am 63 and single and I don’t know anyone else prepping, so who am I going to depend on?
Myself!!
Not trying to push anything on you but a local church might be a good place to meet people.
@@charlessalmond7076 I have been going to the same church for over 10 years. I am the treasurer. I get the same treatment there as everywhere else. Everyone thinks I am an idiot!
One man there agrees with me but he is not doing anything. He said he would just come to my place when things get bad, I told him without contributing it would not be advisable.
So many preppers are loners because they fear crowds showing up at their door. But I am sure there are at least 5% of the people in town that prep for at least routine disasters and shortages.
I'm going to go for 43
I agree with you about relying on our children as we get older but the problem is that this government and preceding governments have made it where our children can’t even afford to take care of themselves and are moving back home with their parents
When did over 40 become "elderly?"
I'd like to know that too...
I was told awhile back that after you turn 35 you are considered geriatric & I'm in the nursing field & learned that in a class.

Unless we get raptured first we are going out fighting!
Hey serious question... Where did the rapture theology come from? The inner-webs say it has only been taught since like the 1830's and only in America. Is that true? As a life long agnostic who only now is considering God, I'm just frustrated by Christians who don't think they have to prep because of this Rapture idea.

@@robertbates6057 thank you. I do have a Bible. I'll read that.
45 I would guess. Almost 60 here. Use it or lose it. I’m prepping for my kids and grandkids. I could die tomorrow or not for many years. Who knows. Prepping for me is about future generations. I’ve had an awesome life so whenever I’m called home is just fine.
