The term 'prepper' often times gets a bad rap, though being prepared is something I highly encourage. In life you don't want to die - you want to survive - and in order to ensure your survival, it helps to make some preparations. Prepping can be fun, it doesn't have to be too expensive, and you don't have to be crazy to be a prepper. I'd consider myself more of a survivalist, and in general I do enjoy all aspects of preparedness. This video should give you some tips on how you can take survival and prepping to the next level.

I lived through the LA riots and saw what it was like when 911 was called and the police did not respond. Shamefully I know first hand, as I was one of the 30 officers that were ordered to withdraw and then ordered not to go back. When answering pleads from the police air ship over florence and normandie for units to come back, once we said we were, all units were ordered not to or face insubordination. True story! Today I wish I was insubordinate! One of the worst decisions of my life. Don't ever, ever think the government has your back. Stock up, train, practice with what you have and consider it insurance. 04/29/92, 77THstreet div, 12W72 Marez & Mcomber.

[@davidtadlock2238]

Why do you regret it so much, we’re a lot of atrocious committed outside of the looting? Thanks for your service as well.

[@The67Crucible]

Yep, back then I was a supervisor in a large MCI called center. During the riots operators would escalate to me because the person calling in needed immediate help from law enforcement and they couldn't get a response. Phone lines we buried. Crazy times indeed.

LLOD. Joined for the pews, stayed for the preps. Well done.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Haha thanks!

[@guisspino]

One thing you didn’t mention is financial prepping. I think the biggest prep you can have is a cushy savings account. Reduce/eliminate your debt, and your prepared for much more likely scenarios like job loss, medical bills, etc. Plus, you’ll be able to invest responsibly in food, water, gear, guns, ammo, etc.

[@guisspino]

Bill Randall yeah I would never advocate anyone to plan on a bankruptcy. Really, what do you need to start being prepared? Like the basics. Probably a handgun, week or so worth of water, and some food stores? Maybe an overnight/buyout/get home bag in your trunk. Not too expensive. But if your able to fix your finances and consistently save money your whole life will go smoother. And emergencies will be easier to handle.

[@isaacnunez7596]

[@jeffreylebeau8006]

Mike little things like this help out a lot. When I first moved in with my Fiancé we took our son to the County Fair. The local fire department had a metal trash barrel with things in it for bad storms. To help keep your kids busy and not scared. Along with food. My Fiancé looked at me after and started to couponing for grocery shopping to get a lot more for less. And she sure did, she even did it with CBS for hygiene items and more natural over the counter medications. I’ve been stocking up with other things way before we went to the county fair, and I was so excited when she talked to me about stocking up on things. I just need to make all of us a bag each and try to have one in our car so if something happens when out, then we can be prepared. I was in the BoyScouts and I try to live by the motto “BE PREPARED”

[@Tuckerfromco]

[@nicklasatterson5308]

Would like to see a video of “hardening” a house like you talked about around the 12:49 Mark

[@joe_a_photo]

You could also look into multivitamins because sometimes those mountain house meals don’t have a lot of vegetables. Multivitamins that are USP certified is a way to know that your body will actually absorb the nutrients. My gf is in nursing school at Oregon health and sciences university and they covered the USP rating for vitamins. Protein powder could also be useful for getting nutrients in a bug in situation

[@jeromeokisurvival1776]

I have 4 kids and I don’t see many people talk about prepping other than for themselves so that’d be cool to see more kid stuff too

[@troydodson4837]

You need a ton of calories, rice and beans should be your base.

[@joe_a_photo]

This is a great topic. I’m a volunteer firefighter in Sonoma County, CA. Two years ago we had the Tubbs fire in Santa Rosa. Look it up if you are not from the area. Look up coffee park damage. The entire neighborhood was destroyed by a fire started by power lines. Strong winds contributed to the massive spread of the fire. Some people were woken up in the middle of the night and told their roof was on fire and they had to get out. Others had 5 mins to evacuate. So many people literally only had their pajamas and their car. No other belongings. What’s crazy is that people in the area STILL don’t have any supplies in case of another evacuation. The fire predictions for this year in CA are not good. We have a TON of dried vegetation that could be fuel for a Wildland Fire.

[@SHWELL11]

OK, my suggestion. It would be great to see what products you currently use for OVerlanding/Camping that would be great to have during an Emergency?

[@andyv3965]

Don't need much more than a semi-decent storm in many places before being prepared will be super helpful. It doesn't take more than a day or so without power before you'll be very happy you prepared a bit. I live in a rural part of Norway, near the coast, that sees somewhat decent storms a few times a year. And 9/10 storms I lose power for a day or two. In winter maybe longer. I'm not super prepared but I got my basic needs covered so I can be comfortable for 3 days without power (which not only kills my means of cooking and storing refrigerated food but also my heat source). Which is what my government recommends for preparedness, and I've found to be a good level of preparedness for myself.

[@ordinary_american]

Love your videos and your easy going personality. Not related to preparing, but could you do some videos where you take people to the range for the 1st time? You are a great ambassador for the 2-A.

[@ThePrepperAlmanac]

Great video. I'm new to my prepping journey, so I'm soaking in all of the info.

[@johnprice8201]

Im not a prepper by any means but just practical. I live in South Florida and have seen first hand how people react when things get a little tough. I have been weeks without electric and water you can't drink. People fighting in gas lines waiting for hours. The fact is, in almost any situation you are on your own or better just assume you are have the ability be be self sufficient.

[@DirtShy]

Nice overview, this will be a nice series on each subject of discussion. I will say one thing about this, if you have all this preparedness, and they don't, hunger and thirst will drive there bodies to take away all you have without asking. I tell no one what I'm ready for because somehow they will remember us living ok. Anyway, let's prepare on KZbin.

You're relatable to a wide audience and I think that attributes to your success in spreading your message. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@alexanderweaver8650]

Very provocative subject, Mike! Well done! We all take life for granted these days now that we have modern technology all around us. If SHTF happened today many of us would not be prepared to handle it. Recently we had a prolonged electricity outage due to a severe storm. Fortunately, having been a backpacker/camper for 60+ years my wife and I weathered (no pun intended) the outage. We had heat from a camp heater, able to cook using single burner stoves and/or a BSR butane stove, lights from a luminoodle string powered by an Anker battery unit (lasted the entire outage), a portable lantern powered by three AAA batteries, spare batteries for the umpteen array of flashlights and so on. Our respective cell phones provided comms and entertainment. A couple of our neighbors have back up generators however one of them ran out of fuel; then he borrowed a flashlight and a camp stove from me. In our neighborhood safety from "bad people" isn't an issue, however, I was prepared. I am not a prepper per se but only one who thinks ahead or out of the box.

[@BenBinnebose]

Here in Central Valley CA our power company has provided warnings stating that grids can get powered down without notice if fire hazards are too high. That means entire cities are left with no power, no security, no gas stations working, no groceries, no street lights and nothing to charge your devices. That situation would require a bug out bag for the family or all kinds of extra supplies and way to keep your house secure and healthy for you in high temps and chaos. This is good advice.

[@AwakenThyself]

Excellent video Mike! So glad I stumbled upon your videos on my search to armor up my Tacoma! As a single woman right now, I want to be in the same position of being prepared and being able to take care of myself and my community in case of a disaster. I am finding it overwhelming as I am just at that beginning stage of being able to fully live off grid if needed. It kinda gets overwhelming to think about it all-from water, food, tools, vehicle and home preparedness - especially while living in a high rise in downtown Vancouver. My truck is in an underground parkade where I am 3 stories under. I have a small storage space in the building and no back yard, so it does make things tricky. This is getting me thinking about - finally getting out of the city and back to nature. Thank you for the continued inspiration! I just bought my first trailer and now am going to get a lot of the gear that you've recommended for my Tacoma and now the survival gear. I am going to get the Diamond cover that you recommended and I think I"ll use the back of my truck as my survival storage. You did a video of that on your truck and it was excellent. My one question was if you left the pop up tent on it all the time. If its on the back then you cant lift up that Diamond back and that seems a bit inconvenient. How does that work for you? Can you take it on and off to store? Thank you so much and keep up the great videos!!

[@keventaylor8295]

Am I the only one who says" against the worst scum in the universe" quietly in my head when he says last line of defence? Love ya Mike! Keep up the good work!

Urban survival, surviving in the the concrete jungle. RFID'd doors, doors that might not lock, doors that might lock behind you, doors you might have to open to seek shelter. Using the Sillcock water key (we need a LLOD 3D printed light weight version), carrying door stops/wedges/"door jamm"

Happy to see this video, Mike. Prep and EDC gear are the reason I've followed you over the years. Would love to see more of these again!

[@flydriveride]

Purpose built pack that concealed carries a rifle and 3-5 days of kit. "Enhanced EDC". Picture the task of getting home from a city 100 miles away to mountainous rural home. Consider gridlock, voilent protests, wildlife (wolves, bears, cougars etc.), steep mountains, rivers and the like. I have some solutions in development, looking for test. It would make a cool TV show or KZbin series. It would certainly put "bug out" in prospective for many people.

[@The-Tech-Man]

I love your longer form videos like this talking about topics like this

[@StealthGTI]

Hello - I've been watching your content for a few months after learning about overlanding. I had been interested in establishing a long-term food storage solution for over 10 years. Yeah, procrastination! Your link and the discount was enough to compel me to finally make a purchase. I hope to have my first stock in about a week. I just need to set aside a cool, dark place to store it that's both secure and discreet. HAHA! I'm looking forward to your next prep video... and WeekenderLander content, of course. -Scott

Great info! The outdoor hobbies really Do help out with preparedness. I have a long backpacking/camping history and if you backpack, camp, or car camp/overland camp then like you said Mike, most of the gear and skills you already have for those fun hobbies will work great for a preparedness preps. I think another great point you made is to have some of your preparedness gear and food easily accessible in a man transportable system for the quick grab if the situation necessitates that you leave your location in a hurry.

So two ideas for videos I just had. Could you do a video about prepping on a budget? Also another video idea I think would be great is a weekend lander but living off the land edition. Maybe bring a tiny bit of food with you but mainly try to hunt/ fish, make fire and cook your food and stuff without the use of all the fancy gadgets. Those two would be some interesting video ideas I think

Hurricane preparedness. I would like that covered. As a new parent, I had to make sure I have a month of formula at all times.

[@jeffrooke4723]

After being at ground zero in 2017 for hurricane Harvey, my suggestion for hurricane preparedness is fill up the fuel tanks on your vehicles early if something is headed your direction, gather important documents, photos etc, make a video of your home inside and out, prepare to take your pets with you. Get some cash from your bank account. If it looks like you will be hit within say 4 days or so, make hotel reservations, or afind a relative you can stay with ,way out of the area that may be hit, make sure the place you are going to stay allow pets. get out and don’t plan on getting back in for several days after a storm. Just a few things. I will Never ride out another hurricane!

[@ElSabues]

Hey Mike, I've been following you mainly for your overlanding posts and gear recommendations. As a matter of fact my Taco looks awful similar to yours :). However on your question about suggestions for survival skills, I'd love somebody to approach off-grid living (long term in one place) in a professional way. There's tons of videos for mobile off-grid living but no so many for living off-grids in the woods. I loved your video about water storage, but there are so many thing to talk about, like Energy, Water Sources, Weather, Hygiene, Food production, basic hunting skills, Safety, Surveillance, and technology applied around all the above.. Keep up the good work.

[@c0mputer]

I’d recommend videos with Ray Mears. There’s Bear Grylls and Survivor Man stuff but seriously, those guys are survivalists which is fine. Ray Mears is a thrivist. He doesn’t just survive in the wilderness, he thrives. A nerd of the woods and all things camping/hiking/bushcraft.

[@concernedpatriot.2221]

Survival gear in general. Backpacks, vehicle gear etc.

[@Ratchetanium]

Another tip for water is to check inside your toilet tank. Bigger toilets can have like 5 gallons in there, and its the same water that comes out of the faucet.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Yup, and hot water heaters - but if you prepare ahead of time, you don't need to drink toilet water or hot water heater water, haha.

First Aid, Items you should have and how to use them. I think this is overlooked topic, plenty of people show their first aid kits but never how and when to use them.

A not so serious situation: You leave church and head over to your local Chick-fil-A out of a gut impulse craving on a Sunday afternoon. You find others in the near empty Chick-fil-A parking lot with downtrodden faces due to lack of preparedness. How should we get prepared for Sundays?

[@LastLineOfDefense]

This one's pretty easy actually. You can always count on Chick being closed on Sunday, so set yourself a recurring reminder for saturday (preferably before noon in case you want to grab lunch instead of dinner), so you can swing by grab a meal on Saturday and a bonus meal to hold you over on Sunday.

Tampons are better than nothing, if she’s comfortable with a menstrual cup that’s even better. Maybe even a urination device and tp. Just depends on what she’s comfortable with using. My husband and I have pretty much the same stuff in our get home bags. Mine just has some things specific to me, and some things for the kids since chances are they’ll be with me if something happens.

Can you talk about redundancy in gear? Do you keep similar prepper items in your truck, house, workplace, etc, in case stuff goes wrong when you're not at home?

Water, how to prepare and be confident your doing the right thing to not get sick, including products like lifestraw

I'd love to see more about lighting: camping, house, flashlights, etc...and would love for you to expand beyond Olight ;)

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Haha you must not watch many of my videos - I use about 50 different brands of lights and lanterns.

[@brennanbrennecke3323]

Last Line Of Defense lol i take it back 😂 I’m pretty sure I’ve watched every one of your videos. I’m just currently tired of everyone pitching Olight...

[@slimpickens0000]

Solar driveway lights (non-Olights lol) make great indoor lights in the homestead at night. Not going to burn any retina but enough for you to find your way around the house or camp and for like $2.

Worst case on water if you had a generator you can use it to run a well pump. Typically its only a 120v circuit

Thanks for these videos - love the channel and what you’re doing. My question would be if don’t necessarily have most of this preparation equipment - how would you suggest going about gather these items - what are the top five theses you should look to buy in the next 3mo. 6mo. 12mo. To become more prepared?
