“Concept USK” Surviving Urban Disaster Pt 1
Part 1: Sometimes the city is a bad place to be. But millions find themselves linked to the city, living, working, or recreating. Cessation of services, terrorists attacks, economic or governmental collapse, rioting (for a variety of reasons), and devastating NATURAL disasters can transform a usually-bustling and mostly safe urbanscape into a wasteland where emergency services are either overwhelmed or just unavailable. You may quickly find your survival (and those around you) will be up to you. Go prepared, both with a calm, can-do mindset that will allow you to overcome, adapt, and survive bad situations (and help others to do the same). In this series of vids, I introduce my “Concept USK” or Urban Survival Kit and its philosophy as requested by many TNPrs. A possible motto as you work your way through urban chaos: “Prepare, Survive, Render Aid, Lead.” Some Nutnfancy foundations of the review: most kits will evolve according to need and technology, a kit will have to be personalized for your situation, adherence to legalities of some contents is your responsibility, it’s impossible to prepare for every contingency and SAWC (Space/Size And Weight Constraints) will dictate your level of preparation and kit “depth,” preparations for self-defense are wise, the necessity to blend in and not draw attention to yourself, the concepts of “write-off,” re-stocking, pre-postioning, and redundancy in kit preparation, and guidelines for use. In Part 1 these foundations are discussed …

@chalaohp That’s great. That helps answer the timeless question, “Are humans basically good or basically bad?” If the measure of that is based on human survival as a species, the total world population indicates we’re pretty good. People haven’t killed off the ENTIRE populace … YET.
@RodCornholio I’m writing from Chile, and although the situation has returned to normal in the south, I personnaly believe the society was entirely shaken by the lawlessness we saw right after the quake, I can’t believe how fragile democracy and the rule of law is in an fairly predictable scenario like an erthquake or a hurricane, but where’s tragedy, I also witnessed stories of solidarity and hope, where entire families united to defend their own, and help those who couldn’t help themselves
Here is another option for water treatment: a Steripen. And check it out, some models take those AA lithium batteries again. Can you say, “Standardization”?
you say keep it low key but who walks around with karabiners, fluorescent bands and 550 on there pack?
@CrAZeDsoLdDieR I don’t remember claiming otherwise.
It’s precisely for this reason that you want to have a number of high-quality, reliable batteries handy.
EVERY resource might be in short supply, it’s up to every individual to be adequately prepared.
@jake262144
Uhh… I’m sorry to say but Batteries will be in short supply if something big goes down.
So a buddy of mine, who is studying journalism/TV & radio broadcast, conducted an interview with me about my interest in EDC. I hoped I was a good ambassador for EDCers and I tried not to paint a negative picture of them. Anyways, I found myself referring to this series quite a bit with regards to the stuff I carry daily and the philosophies of “being prepared”.
Right on Bro’ i totally agree with you.. we ALL need to be prepared for the worst and praying for the best keep up the awesome vids
Great video, but holy chit..please cut these long vids into multiple parts! Not everyone has a speedy computer. Took like an hour to load it. and it still skipped and was choppy when it played. Just my 2cents. lol keep up the awesome work.
Hey, good stuff. Have you got a download PDF with the items in the pack, also would you have different items in your USK pending if it is in our care / office / home?
you should make a “wasteland survival guide”. (we can work together as a youtube community)
3-23-10 USA: Revolution? Shooting and throwing bricks at Leftist Democrats. Marxist 60′s in reverse? Jefferson’s Patriots? My ancestor was with the “sons of liberty”, no more than a rabel gang. He broke into the tax office and destroyed the means to perform the Stamp Act. He later declared War against his own government. We were all English Citizens.? He was a terrorist. “One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.” I will attend my first Tea Party this Saturday. TeaPartyExpress dotorg
Oh my god, as if watching his videos wasn’t time-consuming enough lol.
A review of 1 multitool would take up like 120 pages.
Suprised you didn’t get reported or hassled by a LEO or Fed for filming in town like that, you could have been al qaeda lol. Please take more rights from the people to make us safe. You have some great vids nutn but you should know that the govt trained the terrorists to begin with. They bring them out to pull off these attacks so they( the govt) can then come and start taking rights away or use it as a reason to go to war. Examples: Hitler burning his Reichstag and The Patriout Act.

Rule of law says I can have a firearm. Second Amendment.
@toyrocketastronaut This kit is for rule of law situations so an ar-15 really doesnt go with this… he has a separate vid for WROL that has a carbine
He forgot the 45 cal pistol, and/or AR-15 rifle, plus ammo, but otherwise a good video.
forgot the pot and dope man but i appreciate the vid.
this is great man. love your vids. another dude pointed this out, but i thought i’d check: if you go to amazon and search for this kelty pack, the other items people bought are almost everything that’s in your kit to a T. pretty funny. anyway, there’s a lot of people counting on your info and reviews. you’re the best i’ve found. you should start reviewing cars and dishwashers too. you would totally make it interesting. lol. anyway, keep up the good work.
i watch all 3 in this series! very informative the only thing i gotta say is of all these videos i watch about but out bags survival kits etc no one ever includes toilet paper
