Urban Get Home Bag (Part 1) by TheUrbanPrepper

[@PpAirO5]

Protecting your senses is very important. Great thinking 👍

[@tzpike]

The side walk chalk was a great idea, and something I would of never thought to include in my bag. Thanks for the videos!

[@denimal07]

Nobody builds them better, dude. Dig your videos, and I great ideas from them and often rewatch them. Thanks for putting the careful thought into them.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

denimal07 Thanks a bunch. It's great to hear that people enjoy these videos. It makes all the months of planning and production totally worth it.

[@mikel9567]

I'm an EMT in Seattle - that respirator is pointless for what you are using it for. It is a P-100 organic vapor cartridge meaning it can filter out organic vapors with and without oils. It is not effective for fires or volcanos. In fact in a fire you would probably do more harm to yourself than good. You would be better off with a standard dust mask for volcanos and an emergency escape hood for fires. Personally I would use an N-95 disposable mask as they are compact and will filter out viruses and bacteria. We use ones made by 3M on our ambulances and they fold up and are extremely compact.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Thanks for the feedback Mike! I really appreciate it. I will definitely look into replacing this mask back to the N95 mask which I have a lot of. How many how many do you think is suitable for a 72 hour kit?

[@mikel9567]

TheUrbanPrepper I would recommend 3 at a minimum. Ours are the fold flat variety and we use them when we have infectious patients (TB, Meningitis, Flu, etc). They are fluid resistant so they will still protect you if you get fluid or moisture on you as well. I couldn't find an exact usage life but 3M says they can be used for surgery so I would expect 8-12 hours usage easy. More if your not in a confined space with some one. They are also individually packed so they are sterile. This is what we use - www.buyemp.com/product/3m-n95-particulate-respirator-and-surgical-mask I really enjoyed both parts of your video. You gave me a bunch of ideas for the kit that I want to build. Mine needs to be a combo rural / urban kit since I work in downtown Seattle but live quite a distance away (over 50 miles).

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

+Mike L Thank you for the link! I love that they are flat and individually wrapped. I just spent $100 on 3 boxes. These will work great for my various kits. BTW, since we are both in the Seattle area, it would be fun to link up one of these days. Send me a PM or email if you would like to set something up. ~Cliff

[@gd8610]

Hello, I'm Jerry a pennsylvania EMT. hope you take this constructively but the p-100 organic vapor filter filters out finer particulates than a n-95 mask. in fact n-95 means non areosol and 95% first pass efficiency. The p 100 is 97.5% effective at first pass efficiency, meaning the first breath you take in it filters out more small particles like bacteria and viruses. It also filters out organic vapors and is rated for use with particles of oil in the air. If you want you can fact check this with the below link to a 3m pdf file. scroll down and it has a chart stating the efficiency raiting. Hope this helps. www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=3&rct=j&q=p100%20organic%20vapor%20cartridge&ved=0ahUKEwjiiuvMm4bLAhWOPB4KHc0GCYAQFghSMAI&url=https%3A%2F%2Fmultimedia.3m.com%2Fmws%2Fmedia%2F565214O%2F3m-cartridge-filter-guide-and-brochure.pdf&usg=AFQjCNHcd1dU6G-Xc3djpRQh_d3nkpH9xw

[@mikel9567]

EMSGardener The additional efficiancy comes from the mask being able to handle oils. Both the N-95 and P-100 are perfectly fine for healthcare. Also, remember that for maximum efficiancy they must be fit tested to the individual and the person must know how to properly don and doff the masks. We use N-95's every day and they are in our Ebola kits too. The 3M masks that I recommended to Cliff I trust my life too as do other responders.

[@jenniferlizcano3125]

Thank you for making this! You're obviously a very sharp, insightful individual who has put a LOT of time into this endeavor and I thank you for sharing.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Jennifer Lizcano Thanks a bunch, Jennifer! I appreciate your kind words. You're right. It takes a LOT of time to put these videos (and PDF's) together, so it is always great to hear from people who enjoy them. Thank you for your support of my channel!

[@ryanlhobson13]

Fantastic video. I really appreciate your thoroughness and the amount of time and energy you take when making the videos and PDFs etc. keep it up!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Ryan Hobson You're very welcome, Ryan. :)

[@condoprepper2665]

Your attention to detail and companion PDF's are awesome! Thank you.

[@robertshowe2417]

Watching this again five years later and it is still the best get home bag video on the internet. Nothing comes close.

[@steveert2503]

I'm about half way done with this video and I just wanted to say that this is by far the best urban survival kit I have ever seen

[@TheOnlySaneAmerican]

+Tyler Dunham You haven't seen much then.

[@austinpisarro884]

+BelligerentTruth Well, everyone has they're own opinions.

[@joshuaromeo9187]

i checked out the PDF and I must say, the amount of organization is baffling. Im not a very organized person but everything is put in its place and those places are color coded. impressive

[@smileysharon23]

Thank you! Brand New prepper here, and this was very helpful in getting mine and my family’s get home and bug out bags ready!

[@kittensugars]

I love your get home bag. Very neat, and I think you thought of everything...all of my OCD sensibilities are pleased, LOL. --well done!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

kittensugars LOL! I'm happy to have stimulated your OCD. :)

[@williamnomad2015]

This is probably the best Get home bag set up I've ever seen. Nice video!

[@morticianfaller]

Another great video. I really like the pdf that you create for all your bags and the information you include. Great job.

[@stephenthenachohunter405]

One of the better bag setups I have seen. very well done!

[@mikedog2000]

I'm really enjoying this series as I'm right in the middle of trying to differentiate between EDC bag and get home bag.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

mikedog2000 Cool. Drop me a line if you ever want to chat about things.

[@TheFarfetchd]

Your video is well thought out and shows what a neat person you are. Thank you for the time that you put into this.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

TheFarfetchd Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad that you enjoyed all of the hard work that went into making this video.

[@scottalmeida]

I learn something new every time you post a new video. Your insight is great. Besides, your attitude is contagious! Keep up the great vids Cliff aka UP aka Urban Prepper!!!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

sam adams Thanks a bunch, Sam! I'm glad my videos have been useful to you.

[@TacticoolNinja]

Same bag I use for my GHB. Picked it up at Target, for a good price. Thanks for the video, look forward to the next.

[@PpAirO5]

I need that "Pro knot" cards. Could become very usefull.

[@lloydbusby6614]

I have never seen concrete chalk in a bag of any sort. Great idea!!!!👍

[@morrisdonald]

Your video has giving me some great new additions to my get home bags. You ate a well organized person, that is a great talent to have have for making these videos. Thank you for the great ideas you have given me for my survival stuff.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

morris donald Thank you very much, Morris. I'm glad that you enjoyed this video.

[@LucyBriggs91]

I think you've made an excellent choice in your bag selection. I feel that even those backpacking-type bags like what one would find at REI or EMS can be conspicuous. That SwissGear bag looks very traveler/commuter - great idea, thanks.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Lucy Briggs Thanks Lucy! Yeah, the SwissGear backpack is really nice. I think I may need to get a few more of them since they blend in so will with other commuters.

[@randallkelley3599]

Its rare when my expectations are exceeded by a tool, but the 14" pry bar did. Heavy, strong, and compact. Thx for the vid Urb.

[@jamesbabbath5306]

Swissgear makes some of the best bags on the planet. Still have mine that I used for school and traveling since I was a freshman in high school

[@arglessan]

Just wanted to say thanks for all your videos. I am new to this concept and I am learning what works for me now. Being a family man working 40 miles away and taking the train to and from really makes me think what if. Keep doing what your doing. It does help.

[@countersprocket]

nicely done! Thank you for taking the time to share your discoveries with us. I'm trying to put together shelter-in-place plus get-home-bags for my travels. I'm often thousands of miles from home and appreciate your ideas. For example, the hefty pry bar, which would be very useful whilst getting out of a high-rise building during an emergency. Thank you for sharing!

[@crittercreekranch5190]

wow . As usual,you did a great job. I have ben R&D get home packs for almost 30 years . I have sent people to your PDF for a good list of things to think about . now a new list . cool. Hear is what i tell people not to do {my pack] when i peek at group meetings , i tell people to be the gray man. like you to. Not look ready good job ./ Keep up the good work The Ultimate Getting Home Bag , specialized keep up the good work

[@cARTel6950]

I bought the same model backpack a few years ago when I started college and recently I have been using for when I go biking to carry a medkit and my handgun. Awesome bag, and great video!

[@cARTel6950]

Who else is watching this video and adding stuff to a wish list on Amazon?? lol

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

The Triggernometry Professor LOL!

[@liamh3226]

If you're not, your doing something wrong.

[@cbr6864]

Love those PDF files! Makes it beyond easy to follow what you pack.

[@starshiplazyboy]

I have a few of those Rayovac headlamps. They are an amazing deal. I picked them up for less than $10 each. They're rugged, water resistant, have a nice wash and good battery life. A real home run for prepping.

[@Tazzy5]

Great video and bag! I love Swiss gear. Also loved how you included chalk, since you'd have to write on concrete just in case. Terrific idea to do several bags if possible, I liked that a lot. Subbed!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Tazzy5 Welcome aboard! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I have a new BOB video coming out very soon. Putting the finishing touches on it before filming.

[@apepex]

In a shtf scenario, going home is the last thing on my mind. I have to trek about 30 miles to get to my wife and kids. Any preparation is important. This video is just one of many on youtube and I am thankful to be able to use some of the ideas here.

[@loureiro.marcos]

four years and still very validated, nice, simple realistic

[@TRANSPORTCANADAGURU]

I love watching your videos - very informative, extremely organized in setup and presentation, and easy to follow. Keep up the great work!

[@NGMonocrom]

Sillcock key.... Nice! An often very overlooked item for a BOB or Get Home bag. I've got one in each of my bags. Heavy, but worth it.

[@alanschaub147]

Great video! Thanks for the PDF! ❤️ On to the second video!

[@Huckleberry308]

Wet Wipes make a mega size wipe. I store them inside a gallon zip lock bag to keep them moist once they are opened. They work well after the firing range and are "man sized" so that they are of real benefit. I appreciate the no-see-um mesh idea as well.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Huckleberry308 Nice tip on the mega size. I haven't seen those before.

[@partyone74]

Hey Urban Prepper, I would replace your crank flashlight/radio with a crank flashlight/radio/cell,usb charger. 2 is 1 1 is none and this would be useful in case your battery back up bites it. Keep on prepping I enjoy your videos and style!

[@MikeWood]

Nice set up. To save space, and it may have been mentioned before, but the UV5R has an FM radio, an LED flashlight and you could program in NOAA frequencies. The hand crank light/radio is good, but for a GHB you could probably leave it.

[@ToniSin1]

Once again, an outstanding video!! You never disappoint. Another hit to my wallet? YES!!!!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Toni Sin Thanks! Please don't sue me over the loss of finances due to these videos. I'm just an enabler. ;)

[@ToyoteroMundial]

Very good video as always. Thanks for the recommendations. Already on amazon ordering a few.

[@jasonrinaldo9300]

I commute to work about an hour each morning to Seattle, daily. Good tip regarding the type of bag for the sake of blending in. For my purposes of getting home, I was considering leaving a bike at work just in case the idea of driving was so ludicrous a bike made more sense. I also wondered for what purpose I’d need a head lamp and glow sticks if I’m trying to stay “grey” and keep a low profile. Not sure I’d need the pocket shovel- if I’m anywhere long enough to be digging, I’ve been there too long. I have to cross from Roosevelt to the Tacoma area, lol- so much of this video makes sense. Others- I wonder if they’d attract the crack heads, lol- Good call on the tablet stove. I think a good knife could replace the scissors- this video actually made me think versus other videos that start out with a 5.11. Molly bag……so- overall, good on ya, good video! Thanks! You’ve got fans just south of you if you ever need to hole up lol-

[@EarlyMist]

Very good setup. Glad to see you've gone a bit covert with the bag. The only thing I would change is the size of that Whiskey bottle...to at least 500ml!

[@uuuultra]

Every of your videos I'm constantly saying to myself "Wow that's a good idea" Great work, TUP!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

***** Wow! Thank you so much for the compliment. I really appreciate it.

[@m3gaman25]

great video, cant wait for part 2!! thanks for all this valuable information.

[@robertshowe2417]

Best ghb emg bag review on the web hands down.

[@LarsLondian]

Another great video. The water key excellent idea I will be getting a few of those ASAP.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Lars Londian Nice! In an urban environment I think they are a must. A multi-tool may do the trick, but not nearly as efficient.

[@IDWIE]

As usual, you gave me some good ideas for my system. Rock on bro!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

IDWIE Awesome! I'm glad that you enjoyed it.

[@NothingToNoOneInParticular]

A tea man! Right on. You should try Organic Tulsi Sweet Rose tea. So good. Good for lungs and stress.

[@treefloraken8263]

Yogi sweet tangerine!

[@treefloraken8263]

I like keeping some quench gum on hand. Tasty and keeps the mouth from drying. Also, to consider to add to the respirator, a 1.5 liter (25 seconds) to 4 oz (50 seconds) can of air. Either is small and portable, and in a very dusty, poisonous, or smoky situation could mean remaining conscious.

[@TalathDirnenPrepper]

Great video as always, fantastic PDF to boot. All the best, Stef

[@KeetjeKeetje]

Fantastic video, great ideas for the urban environment. You have just saved me some money with your advice about the bag, recycling an old laptop rucksack instead to heading to Amazon! :) subscribed.

[@bdflavors1347]

I appreciate how thorough you are. Thanks for the pdf.

[@shawncrowson1048]

love your videos and love how you put in extra credit and do the PDF files. you should combine all the PDF files into the urban prepper book

[@bobshaw8112]

Just watching this now (Dec 2020... it was made in 2014). Still very useful and helpful. Thank you!

[@zackedwards7803]

I would add a small water filter straw and maybe a small tarp, just in case you don't make it home in 1 day. Great vid!

[@541raymond]

Is "blending in" what is referred to as being a "Grey Man" ?

[@jkim7272]

I love how you don't carry guns in your edc gear, as a college student your reviews are much more relatable

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

+Jacob Kim Glad to hear that! I've gotten a lot of flack over the years for not showing firearms in my kits. There are some subjects that I think are good to remain private: underwear and firearms. Plus, I feel that omitting firearms in videos makes the topics more universal for countries outside of the US.

[@kyleaplanalp6173]

Nice loadout! It's interesting to see a prepper without a firearm.

[@AreTrees]

You're the first person i've seen use chalk, that's really smart i never thought about that

[@joebetts730]

Your videos are great! I love the BOB and the Get Home Bag. I would love to see what a normal day at work is like for you and how your edc system works when you are working, that would be a cool video! I think I may be the youngest prepper who watches your vids cos I am only a teenager!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Joe Betts Thanks Joe. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to film while at work because I work in a high security building for my day job. I don't want to get fired for making a KZbin video. :) Thanks for the support!

[@magi1969]

Great bag as always, especially the prying tool looked quite pro. While Fiskars scissors are the best, I'd perhaps have something smaller in a GHB, like first aid scissors or just the small scissors in a swiss army knife. Thin water bottles can be a problem for outdoors storage all year around - you don't want to find your GHB all wet and no water after winter. Thick bottles like Nalgene don't (usually) break if frozen (if not too full) and have a wide mouth to pour slush out more easily. Aluminium bottles, such as Sigg, may also withstand freezing if not too full, are a bit lighter than Nalgene-grade plastic ones, and can be heated (although it destroys the paint).

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Marko Grönroos Thanks for the tips, Marko. I got the Fiskars because they were very affordable at $3. I wanted something that would easily cut through jeans. I may revamp the water module to include a stainless steel bottle. I tried to keep this project within a fixed budget and went with a cooking pot instead. Great recommendations regarding temperature. I've never had issues with things freezing and this particular bag is stored under my desk at work. I plan on cycling the food and water once a year.

[@sdunlap89]

i'm always impressed with your GHBs and BOBs. they're very efficient and organized. my organizational skills is more along the lines of, "yeah, i could use that. throw it in the bag," haha. p.s. i'm moving to the Seattle area in the near future, so we're going to be practically neighbors! haha.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Sean Dunn Drop my a line once you move to Seattle, Sean. Let's get together and talk Prepping. Always nice to talk with prepping friends.

[@scott496011]

I have made a get home back in the past. When I know the weather is going to be bad. It is pretty flat in the Houston area and it floods here when we get heavy rain. I work near NASA and there are lots of hotel in the area, I pack an over night bag like this for those rainy days. Like during the threat of a hurricane watch and warning.

[@treacheroussurvival4268]

That's cool, I saw the space needle and I thought it would be nice to tell you that I live in a small town called Rochester, about an hour and a half away... its in between Tumwater and Chehalis/Centralia...

[@anthonywilliams2606]

thank you for another great video.there all very important to me and you've given me a great way to protect my friend god bless you for that.i hope your making more .my God keep you and your clan safe and protected. thanks

[@ryt2carry]

Once again, great video. I appreciate the time you put into these videos. There are so man things I haven't thought about for mine. Again.....got some catching up to do.

[@suzettemartin4121]

You might think about a small bottle of alcohol based hand sanitizer. No telling what you'll get into on your way home, especially if you'll be eating something along the way. It can also be used as a fire starter. Speaking of which, I use cotton balls soaked in petroleum jelly and store in a ziplock snack sized bag, or in a small pill bottle. These ignite quickly from sparks, even in a wet environment, and burn a long time. Thanks for your post. Got me thinking about redoing a GHB!!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Suzette Martin Good point. I'll throw one in. I have lots of them.

[@LEO1WOLF]

I'm callin' B.S.! That can't be Seattle - it ain't even rainin' man. L.o.L.! =-) Naw, I think you've got some genuinely good ideas here Pally & thanks for sharin'. I'll tell ya' right now, I'm finally getting started with a Color-Coding system for compartmentalization (though my own color choices might be a bit more subdued ha-ha). PEACE BRO, from Aurora, CO.

[@gastonnicolasquiroga251]

Because of your work i guess you´re the most organized prepper i've ever seen congratulations xD You're doing quite a good job

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Gaston Quiroga Wow! Thanks Gaston. I'm trying my best to stay organized. So much of my life is an unorganized mess.

[@gastonnicolasquiroga251]

By the way sorry for my english im Argentinian xD

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Gaston Quiroga Your English is FAR superior to my Argentinian.

[@gastonnicolasquiroga251]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA by the way again xD i would like if you could do mre reviews or food for preppers and that kind of stuff let me know what you think xD

[@liamh3226]

Yeah. There's far too many youtubers showing off knives, and WAY too many showing off guns, it nice to see someone who can organize EDC, BOB, GHB and such without glorifying "self defence".

[@FemPrepper]

This is one of the videos that helped me get my bags started. ❤️

[@azguyazdesert417]

I just watched part two, good well thought out information. I loved the mini bottle of whiskey, super idea. My only critique is with the knife, Cold Steel makes great inexpensive blades, but for a survival situation, a full tang blade is best, the hollow handle knife looks good on paper, but any heavy cutting chore will just brake it off. Cold Steel makes many inexpensive full tang knives, as well as durable, dependable folders. MHO. Thanks.

[@cardiacbob]

Even better would be a Mora Companion (3/4 tang), for survival AND some light woodcraft tasks, if you have to stay overnight somewhere in the woods. They're cheap and rugged.

[@ChrisLee-UK]

Outstanding as always Cliff, in the process of putting one of these together...right down to blending in with the bag thing lol No Sat-Nav I noticed although I know you have one of the Garmin units so could double for this bag too. Looking forward to part deux buddy :D :D :D

[@fabianking3473]

Thanks. I like the way you have made it simple to know where to buy this gear.

[@albertgarcia4468]

Cool vid.Till you showed the annialator tool. The one shown looks to not have been used much if at all.I own one.BOTH pieces!The tool is best for just drywall and at best the metal wall (track)frame.It may be used for the prying you mentioned but don't fall over when it breaks. I now have 1 Eastwick all REAL steel and a pry tool.Perhaps an ounce of difference in weight.Strength.You could get medieval in a moments notice !Got both for less than I paid to get my broken paperweight.I think you'll feel the same once you try them.

[@LIFTHUNTREALESTATE]

Whenever you make a video, I buy stuff on amazon!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

David Banther LOL! My apologies to your wallet. :)

[@liamh3226]

I click on a video, and my browser suddenly changes to the amazon receipt...

[@funshopmemphis]

I'm 6:39 into the video and Amazon is already open on another tab. I thought my EDC bag was pretty good, but as they say, you learn something new every day. Thanks for such a great video!!! Now, back to it.

[@bradbasham]

It really puzzles me, how you only have 43K subscribers. Your videos are SO VERY diverse, and imformitive. I see other KZbinrs who have 10 times the following, and all they do is review hundreds of flashlights or knives, or such. Not NEARLY the variety or detail that your videos have.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Brad Basham Thank you so much for this comment, Brad. I am extremely happy to have the subscribers that I do have. Knives, firearms and flashlights are just more popular than color coordinated kits, lunch boxes and emergency food ration bars. I suppose I have more of a nitch with the nerdy, OCD prepping crowd. I'll continue to fill in the gaps with regard to prepping variety videos if you keep watching. Thanks for the support. :)

[@cheridehart8625]

I have found that those with less subscribers are providing better or more truthful information.

[@adamsterdam9049]

I love that you are very neat and organized. Amazing Video!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Adam Sterdam Thanks a bunch, Adam. I'm glad you enjoyed watching it.

[@sinfonianbarelytone9191]

Great video. I've been looking at urban get home bags for a while but didn't see yours until now. And I'm in Downtown Seattle. I've got 15 miles to go but have to navigate Lake Union if one of the many bridges aren't up. Not sure how to do that in a suit. Probably east of I-5. I'm north. Great idea with the chalk and wish I could have the demo tool but I carry mine to and from work. Maybe in my desk at work? Thanks man.

[@phillipzz1]

Thanks Cliff excellent video as always…can wait for part 2.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

phillipzz1 Thanks for watching! :)

[@carlospineda421]

You should get the AAA adapter for the UV5R. You could store your batteries in it and still be a backup to your radio.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Carlos Pineda Great recommendation. I'll look into it. Thanks Carlos!

[@bvulgarin76]

Your videos rocks my friend! Thanks.

[@RichRolling]

Awesome video as always! Thanks for sharing.

[@keylitho]

Nice job.. Love the kit so far.. am patiently waiting for part 2..

[@TheNecropolis20]

at Key Litho - its right here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIXOnKyuhtiHpJo

[@BoozyLopez]

Yes! So excited for this. I'll have to watch once home.

[@Jetblast02]

So far the only thing I would change is the knife. Full thang knives are stronger and less likely to break during use. Also I keep a small pack of babywipes in my bags. Looking forward to part 2.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Jetblast02 I agree, but after watching numerous KZbin torture tests on this knife as well as my own testing, I am fairly confident that it would work when needed. I was pretty impressed with the quality for such an inexpensive knife. I hope you enjoy Part 2 which is schedule to go live tomorrow morning. :)

[@GNCAaron]

I love your attention to detail!

[@seanconley9784]

I like the idea of this style kit. We tend to look at things as SHTF and zombie government meltdown blah blah blah. Let's think for a quick second about the everyday real world. Depending on where on lives we face different natural disasters. I happen to live in the south and am not terribly far from the coast. So spring through mid to late fall we have a concern with hurricanes. As well as just close enough from the foothills that snow/ ice storm can blow in from east of the mountains and cover the area in several inches of ice. A kit like this is meant to be what it is. I leave work, streets shut down, because of _______. And I walk my happy behind home. My wife and I have at minimum a 25-35 minute commute to separate cities from where we live, not to mention school age children. Don't set your self in the reason of thinking as ____ event happened!!!! Run fer them hills and live off tree roots and creek water. It's the natural stuff that catches most folks now a days that throws our communities for a whirl! Nice ideas in everything doesn't need a spec op wanna be operator kit! Plan your work, then work your plan. Nice video and gave me food for thought. Carry On.

[@TroutWest]

It needs a set of mini-binoculars. Very important in any situation where this bag is needed to be able to see down range without having to be in that actual location. You could avoid a lot of dangerous places this way, or plot your next move... or even see someone that's looking back at you.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

RoadTripVidz That would be a nice addition. Do you have a recommendation on an inexpensive model that you like? I have a few that I used with some of my other kits.

[@TroutWest]

TheUrbanPrepper You can score a set of mini-binoculars for $15-25. I have these..and they are pretty light and small. Sometimes you can take some parts off of them and or just make them a 'Monocular" www.amazon.com/Bushnell-Powerview-Compact-Binocular-Camouflage/dp/B0000A0AE2/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1434624233&sr=8-8&keywords=mini+binoculars

[@stevamo]

Another great vid! Looking forward to Part 2.

[@hfortenberry]

Very nice GHB! I think you can also use that whiskey for an antiseptic.

[@05generic]

Good job as expected Cliff. Please tell me why you chose the Cold Steel knife over a similar Mora.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

05generic I was initially doing some research on a good quality inexpensive fixed blade. I was blown away with some stress/torture tests done by a few people on KZbin with this particular knife. Next, I won this knife from ATF6281914 from a bet so I got to do some of my own testing. Nothing against the Mora at all. It would be fun to do a comparison test with these type of inexpensive fixed blades. I’m actually planning on doing a Budget Get Home Bag and the Mora would definitely beat out the Cold Steel.

[@05generic]

TheUrbanPrepper Thanks. I'm going to look for those test videos. That's interesting. Will also check out ATF6281914.

[@05generic]

TheUrbanPrepper LOL! I had forgotten that u did a unboxing video about 6 months ago that included that knife. I even commented on it. That's how u came by the E05 that u carry.

TheUrbanPrepper Hell yeah, I got a shoutout! Also, I know where you hide your gun. There is one pocket where you did not show us the contents.

Sidewalk chalk - that's a great idea! I'm definitely going to add it to my bag, probably in a more visible color. White might blend in too much with the greys and cement around me and not grab enough attention. It would be perfect on brick, though. Also good if your message is just for a particular person rather than general help. Great addition to an urban bag, thanks.

The Peaceful Prepper I'm glad you enjoyed the chalk. I got the idea from Kid Prepper when he was playing with it outside one day.

[@thepeacefulprepper8605]

Watch out - Kid Prepper will be taking over your channel any day now. He's a prepping prodigy!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

The Peaceful Prepper LMAO! That would be AWESOME.

As we have come to expect, excellent vid. Very informative and insightful. Great work my man.

Excellent video! It is obvious that yoiu have given a great deal of thought to your choice of items and organization. One thing... I think you'll find that if you have to do any serious digging, that little plastic trowel is going to suck. I would swap it out for at least an aluminum garden trowel or even better some surplus folding shovel . They wouldn't take up much more room and would give you a lot more digging capacity. Keep up the good work!

Have you ever given thought to making a video on how to use ham radios? Your videos provide so much clarity!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

DJpalealot I haven't really thought about it because there are tons of guys on KZbin who are far more experts than I am in the subject.

[@DJpalealot]

Understandable. Keep it up man!
