Outdoors Survival Gear Essentials and Why

[@derekspace]

Thanks for the kind words all of you! I enjoyed doing a video with my bro. Don't tell him this but I have picked up a lot of good info from both of his channels. I have also learned what NOT to do from him when we were kids! LOL! Long Live the Republic and God Bless America! Thanks for watching!

[@Enes-wj5xq]

Man your brother's outdoor activities are pretty nice!! Always nice to get informations from experienced people.

[@dllnbms7]

Lol his bro is like an extremely southern version of sootch

[@Mittenman313]

100% 🤣👍🏽

[@GraniteDad]

I know, I loved it! The voices are so similar.

WARNING ALERT ⚠ If power goes out all you need is a 2000 watt car inverter. Make sure to buy a sine-wave type inverter. Attach a 00 AWG gauge copper cable to your car's battery for installation of your inverter if no cord is provided with the inverter. Plug in a long heavy gauge extension cord into the inverter and attach the other end of the extension cord to an electric space heater inside your house. Make sure to keep your car motor on parked outside and NOT in house garage. Lock the car doors and have a spare car key. Make sure to have many gas cans filled. Use the high quality air-tight military 'jerry' type metal gas cans for storing gas. Non-ethanol gas is the best for long term storage.

As a cardiac RN I recommend 3 chewable baby aspirin. So many men go out for a wilderness experience and find the climb, exertion, and load to carry an impetus of chest pain. Many will not confess it because they do not want to ruin the trip. Immediantly give the 3 chewables and call 911. If I only had a dime for every situation when sedendary people tried to go into the mountains and it taxed their heart beyond capacity. They will be in denial. You have to trust your assessment and your gut. "He doesn't look right!" You can save a life with early recognition of a heart attack, calling 911 and giving 3 chewable baby aspirin. Medic helicopters can reach even remote places. Carry baby aspirin in your pack.

Awesome video. THIS is survival and prepping!

I earned my nickname of Gadget Girl when I got sent to Oklahoma (from Colorado) to launch a new site for work. Any time someone needed advil, a bandaid, scissors, you name it, it was in my backpack. My coworkers turned it into a game to see if anyone could ask for something I DIDN'T have! (& that wasn't counting what was in my checked suitcase! That had all the stuff I might need if the SHTF whole I was out there & I had to get home!)

[@RealMPe]

Nice to meet your brother.

[@ferebeefamily]

A pleasure meeting you Derek. Thank you for the information and good to see you all do a video together.

[@rosstheplumber6209]

What a fun video!! This video reminded me of years ago when I was in the Navy and I needed a jump start for my car. I remember that everyone who passed me by kept saying they would of helped me out but they didn't have jumper cables. Eventually someone helped me out and I went straight to the store and got a new battery and jumper cables, and to this day all my vehicles always have jumper cables.

[@Alexis_9339]

My husband always has them, and I do now too. So many times we’ve been at church or random places where someone needed a jump, and no one else has cables.

[@ericawatters5386]

some people may not know this - but tagamet and pepcid are antihistamines as well, as someone with a lot of allergies - some severe, I keep both on me, especially after a dr told me to take it along with benadryl for a spider bite that resulted in insane hives - had to take prednisone in a pretty high dose for it and get some shots. so benadryl is an H1 block and tagamet/pepcid are H2 blocks

[@NavVet69]

Great content Scootch ! You should do more videos with your brother !

[@romandavidmusic4315]

Two legends right here!

[@redriver6541]

Excellent video Sootch. Glad to see your brother on here. I'm also the "boy scout" of my group.

[@harpjason208]

You two arw near clones.... Thanks fir shooting this conversation. Enjoyable for sure.

[@Aaron-ge1hy]

Your brother is awesome! I see the family resemblance. 😀 Great collaboration video!

[@Tadicuslegion78]

The brother named Derek for survival, let's check it out.

[@patriot4258]

Guys I live in Florida, and have tramped the swamps and back water all my life. The snakes, gators, and mosquitoes are a bitch. I always carry my backpack with my oh sh&t gear and pistol with my fishing gear . I have always loved it and still do it at 65 years young

[@maddog2557]

All makes sense now. It runs in the family!

[@alias7067]

I love this thank you! Good morning!

[@thewhitebackground]

I love your channel, I’d love to hear you first home kit for new homeowners if you could!

[@gelignite664]

We have a saying here in Australia. "Let someone know before you go!" 😀😀😀

[@anthonynovelli2164]

Some great ideas that are seldom ever mentioned on survival videos is the benadryl the air horn and the red ribbon. I'll be adding those items to my packs. Some sutures or strong duct tape is essential as well to close lacerated wounds. Have Derek on again sometime.

[@Mittenman313]

Great video! Good to see your brother on here sharing as well.

[@Aaron-ge1hy]

Awesome video! 👍 Nice to get a slightly different perspective from your brother. Thank you, gentlemen.

[@dantediego]

Derek Rocks!

[@Romin.777]

Seems like a nice guy and have excellent knowledge, it must be a family trade. :)) Last year i got overheated and dehydrated. Years ago i was hypothermic and dehydrated too. Than you learn a thing or two. :) God Bless you two

[@lens7859]

You brother is terrific!

[@earthcream]

great content my brothers!!!

[@twbucksr303]

I was a Boy Scout as a youth and an Adult Leader during and beyond my Sons 12 year Scouting career. The majority of the outdoor prep and the necessary survival skills you cover is taught in the Scouting program. Be Prepared is their motto. Sadly only 2-3% who start the Scouting program reach the rank of Eagle Scout. Your channels (and others) do a great job of teaching those who were not given, or didn’t take full advantage of, the Scouting program as a youth. Being prepared also means making sure those going with you are fully prepared as well. You should always do a gear shake down in the driveway or parking lot before you depart on your adventure. If they lack the skills or knowledge, show them where you keep your survival cards or book in your gear so they can save your life. That power boater who assisted you was checking your preparedness when he asked you if you had a rope.

[@michelejbreese5100]

Great show guys thankyou much

[@JSsm987]

That’s great, I’ve subscribed to your bros channel. It would be great to see a crossover episode where you go out with him on a trip!

[@derekspace]

Thanks Ark! We have been talking about it. Likely this spring when the fishing is on fire...better yet, I'll take Sootch this winter and give him the leaky waders! See how the expert handles hypothermia. LOL

[@lewisvillalta2492]

That is an excellent idea my friend, wow thank you very much God bless you always

[@Swamp-Fox]

Awesome video guys! I just subscribed to Derek's channel.

[@OzMan9989]

Thanks for the intro. I’ve now subbed to both Sootch bro channels!

[@Fvtarchitecture]

What a beautiful discussion

[@independentprepper1]

You guys are right you need to be prepared

[@lexlane9353]

Great stuff! I hope to get back to fishing as my kiddos leave the nest. I will likely be going alone a lot more. Thinking about having this stuff is important!

[@generic53]

Dump the Ace bandage and go with Duct Tape. Can do what the Ace bandage can do and A LOT more.

[@KPgoBills]

Thanks for posting! 🙏

[@blueridgebushcraft8294]

Y’all keep up the good work. It’s a good thing to be called a Boy Scout. Be prepared. One of the toughest hike fishing trips I’ve been on was in long creek I think it was the cougar river.

[@nancyhjort5348]

During chemo, with frequent dehydration from vomiting and diarrhea, I learned that sips of water are better absorbed than guzzeling water. Stay hydrated.

[@marlaspiers-ladner3439]

Great video. Thanks for the information. God bless.

[@judiehavard4903]

Guys these things do happen including the Hornets nest-- BELIEVE IT!! And Carry 2 paddles always!! Pay attention. And take a tarp for cover. Rain pops up quick! Bug Spray. Bright flashlight!! It is black dark on water or in woods. It has to throw a bright long light to shine the banks or tree tops. For fog!! Don't count on that little pocket flashlight. Pay attention!! Rope..yes!!! Believe it!! We stay at the river a lot. We have a houseboat. And have experienced all these things.

[@patriciasimonsen5705]

Loved your informal format with your brother; the wooded background and clips. I appreciated the presentation of important information shared in a "non- threatening" and casual manner. Retention was easier. Thank you! P.S. I bet your family gatherings are a hoot!. 🍃🍁🍂

[@michaelfred258gmail7]

Nice comment dear friend ☺️

[@philipsc4225]

Actually had an elderly neighbor who fell getting out his deer stand and had to crawl to his truck with a broken back. He made and eventually recovered and continued to hunt deer

[@michelejbreese5100]

I realy like the fact. Duplicate. Yes.

[@ericjudd9603]

Thanks man👍

New sub here! I love learning

[@hyggehomestead5386]

great video

[@1945tigers]

Hornady is going to see a massive drop in ammo sales.

[@mtnshooter2487]

Darick sounds like Nutnfancy ) 2 is 1, 1 is none

[@larchlarch9851]

I love you❤

[@vortexecho72]

Better yet, replace the red ribbon with reflection type ribbon.

[@chevyon37s]

As good of an idea as the trail marker ribbon is, if you’re going to put it out you need to pick it up on the way out. Otherwise you’re just the same as the scum bag tossing their soda bottles and McDonald’s trash out the window.

[@nancyhjort5348]

Has anyone tried the efficacy of using pineneedles crushed or boiled for their oils and used as drug repellant?

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

anti-histamine is most important

[@patriciahibbert6139]

Basically Prepare for the worst and the worst will less likely happen.

[@missjennemeg1]

Brother likes to talk! 😬😂🙄

[@Tyler-mz7bl]

Ahh, you watched nutnfancy 's newest videos too...lmao

[@johnfortwengler4496]

Didn't see a compass

[@derekspace]

There was one in the green pack covered hidden in red ribbons and Doh! I forgot to get it out. Left out a couple more things but that would be the worst to leave behind. Great catch!
