Yes it was a pretty good video and kind of put it in the face of those who dont think anything will ever happen here,also those who think civilians have no business owning or using kit.

I sort of half watched it earlier. I`m going to rewatch it later and pay more attention. He does make good points about the 'grayman' approach and overall fitness.

He ends with "If you aren't fit, you're gonna die"

All the time folks will be like "I'll be at base, I'm too old fat etc"  

You gotta get there first.

I like his videos. Entertaining, informative, in depth. Some of the shtick gets old, but the survival videos put ideas in motion for me that I never gave a thought to, and I appreciate that.

Yeah, tell this to the people of Maruipol.

A guy gave an advice once. He said if a real war is coming, where artillery and rockets are used, first priority should be to get a flak jacket and a ballistic helmet. If two-way range is expected, then a plate carrier with plates and a bump helmet should take priority.

I of course have none of the above, but the advice stuck with me.

I was thinking of getting a lvl II concealable vest though.

Me too


After a few hours in the mud and woods shooting and hauling stuff around I'm exhausted and want a drink so I'm probably good for the first few hours mostly.

Realized it's urban and I realize that 90% of the savages are just as armed as me albeit cheaply but I don't think it's going to fun.

Last I saw, he only released two videos in the planned series. I'm disappointed, I'm no stranger to being out in the woods with a pack and rifle but additional/different opinions and experience are welcome. At best it challenges assumptions and drives improvements, at worst it cements existing decisions.

Right?  Cardio and fitness will be the least of people's worries.  I mean people commit suicide over the dumbest shit.  

People's minds are way more fragile than their bodies.

What happened to everyone on this site.

Some dude puts out info that he was trained on in SERE school, that I can only imagine civilians in war torn shitholes would have paid everything to absorb before conflict happened, and everyone shits on it. Calls it larping etc etc.

If that’s the thought process then almost every CCW person is a John Wick larping wanna be.

I’ve had to stop myself from being so negative the last 24months. Things are weird and the world is full of negativity on display 24/7. Who knows what will happen, I go back and forth but man the nihilism in this place is real.

His knowledge is real and useful. However, most people couldn’t run to the mailbox to get their mail without passing out from fatigue, or gout pains. For those fatties, it is larping and the Gucci gear he pedals will be useful, but only until they get raided.

BTW, I’m watching the original Red Dawn right now. Not even a quad rail in sight, let alone mlok, weapon lights, or fore grip. Poor bastards had to hip fire their deer rifles.

I kind of am leaning towards people who are so unhappy with themselves they only exist to talk shit over the internet or disrupt actual dialog, as they would never say a word to anyone in real life, in fear of facing actual consequences for their big mouths…..
