  • As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain, I take a look at my wife, and realize she's very plain. But that's just perfect for an Amish like me, you know we shun fancy things like electricity.

  • @EBFilmsMan, LoL,.. just taking a shun break to post is all?

  • @EBFilmsMan thank you Weird Al :) lol

  • I would expect that a sudden disappearence of oil and the catastrophic consequences that would follow would result in a major shift in social and cultural thinking. The exposure of the utter vulnerability in consumerist way of life (all dependent on oil) would cause ideas like Capitalism and industrialization to be discredited. Green ideologies, Primitivism, Back-to-the-land movements would become popular. Renewable energy would be the future.

    Just imagine what good would come out of it...

  • @TheVoiceOfReason93

    not much, the 7 billion people will deplete those resources pretty quickly.

  • @pavelkrioukov

    Well, F***.

  • HD my ass!

  • "Grab your guns and gears kids we are eating humans tonight."

  • @cxiong116 hills have eyes huh? 

  • dont worry people, we still have enough oil until the next few generations, we be dead by then. only thing to worry about is gas prices. And when oil runs out we can all die and the world will start over again.

  • this would be the greatest thing to happen to mankind in the modern age

    we'd be forced to live in the real world and know there is no such thing as a free lunch without work

    also the price for failure is death

  • Comment removed

  • Why DON'T we grow HEMP to produce ethanol, it is 6 times more efficient than corn per meter and grows in a far wider region? OH YEAH the dumb fucks that run our government made it illegal, putting it in the same category as marijuana, even though it cannot be smoked as a psychoactive agent!

  • @ctuan13 becasue if we did that- OPEC would lose money

  • @1x93cm Exactly.

  • People need to wake up!O this wont happen,bullshit.I promise you its just a matter of time!

  • so, let me get this straight...Canada, the country with the 2nd largest oil reserves (in ground oil) and second largest producer of natural gas, in the the world, is the country that has the biggest problems coming up with fuel? and on top of that, crops, which are oil intensive, are wasted by creating biofuels....best case, it takes 1.3 gallons of fuel to create 1 gallon of biofuel..and if your only source of fuel is biofuel, you can see this isn't going to work out well...script rewrite needed

  • @FreedomClause Not even to mention that most of the electricity used in Quebec is hydro-electricity...which requires no oil

  • In my social studies class we were going to right an essay about how our life would be like without oil, but luckly we convinced our teacher to let us watch this instead. :)

  • The history Channel should have higher quality programs than this. The science and time line in these 'Aftermath' programs are absurdly flawed. Programs like this unteach people.

  • yes it looks like its an apocalyptic movie but face the truth.... we need to invest more in alternative power generators such as wind sea and basically sun.... no matter when its positive that oil wont last for ever...

  • I would hook up with people on the coast that had a sailboat and bring a fishing pole and go to wal-mart and steal all the lighters they had and a good pole and a gun.

  • thanks for the upload

  • Those who are talking diesel. Isn't diesel an crude oil distilate?

  • 8:23 Is that Oakland?

  • Oooooh, I get it. When the rapture comes only oil will be forgiven.

  • Granted, this program presents an extremely unrealistic and exaggerated scenario. However, given that the entire process of American agriculture is so heavily dependent on petroleum (from preparing the soil to harvesting and transportation) to the point that an estimated ten calories of petrochemicals must be burned to produce every calorie of food consumed in this country, this program is still -- if you'll pardon the ironic pun -- food for thought.

  • Grow and hunt your own food??? Seriously, wtf.

  • You see that scenario about garbage building up in Toronto? Yeah, those images aren't made for the film, that shit really went down a couple years ago when the union the garbage collectors were in went on strike for a month (I think it was a month anyway). So that stuff was based on fact of what DOES happen when garbage collection stops.

  • Diesel is the future!! If i can only convince my countrys government (holland) Dieselengines are the most modern and economic engines in the world!!

  • Don't worry, 84% of the new cars in Ireland are diesel.

  • When the electricity shuts off, the pumps that purify and send the water to our taps will go as well, because the pumps are run on electricity also.

  • Funny, I am already making diesel from waste plastic and butanol from garbage. Oil will not just "run out" but slowly dwindle, meanwhile I will continue to power my cars and equipment for free.

  • @cleatrampler

    =I am already making diesel from waste plastic and butanol from garbage.=

    Way to go! Bravo!

    We need as many different innovative ways as possible to make portable fuels.

    Meanwhile, for STATIC energy consumption (i.e. buildings, NOT moving vehicles)

    we need as many wind and solar farms as possible.

  • 12:20

    how does the T.V still work with no electricity?

  • @Gangstabob716 Well spotted.

  • No shit food is health. Ecology-Biology-consumption-pr­oduction-communication. Keep the 98.6 degrees, I'll be eating kangaroo, grubs and water Lillie's in the gisspslands, Australia 4 ever.

  • In 5 months you could grow enough vegetables to have a fully sustainable starch diet for 5 people on about 500 square meters I'd say, this seems to be a docudrama about just north America, cause trust me most people would react this way, but seriously using corn to run your cars instead of yielding that fruit and veg for sale at a local farmers market where I doubt the price would go up? Fuck the history channel.

  • @farfetchfilm wouldn't that further isolate groups of people rather then helping the world back to how it is now?

  • when we we run out of fuel there will be a fuel called imulsion and then there are gonna be giant creatures underground that will attack us

  • holy shit this is a scary reality

  • lol thumbs up if you thought he said "porn" at 4:01

  • @uberkewlmedia HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAAHA­HAHAHAHAAA!!!

  • At 2:30 I thought They were making meth -sigh, life in Oregon.

  • There is NO reason ELECTRICITY cannot run in a post-oil world

    (assuming that the little oil that is left is saved for emergency purposes),

    IF we create as many wind and solar farms RIGHT NOW.

    The only way THIS will happen is if we STOP THIS BULLSHIT OF CALLING ENVIRONMENTALIST EXTREMISM a BAD THING!

    Anthropogenic global warming (AGW) deniers and other extreme pro-free-market fanatics who resist the TINIEST restriction on their consumption or lifestyle need to be killed now.

  • @mphello Would you be offended if during your attempts to kill me I fight back and kill you?

  • @EasyEs Yes, by definition, I would be. Just like paid soldiers get all pissy by the opposing side (e.g. US and UK soldiers fighting the Taliban). Just like opponents in a death penalty battle. By definition, each side in a conflict believes the opposing side should stand down. Has absolutely nothing to do whether it is many vs many or 1 vs many. However, invariably, one side is always much more wrong than the other.

  • @mphello Okay well we will draw pistols at high noon. Can you get to Alberta by then?

  • Things would not get this bad if we had tough laws against human breeding and overpopulation - mandatory vasectomies for men - outlawed meat (factory farming = holocaust for animals), made everyone vegan, until we figured out the technology to create biosynthesized invitro meat,

    outlawed gas-powered cars NOW.

    But conservatives and peak-oil-deniers are bleeding hearts, crying if billionaires can't have a 4th yacht or another trillion dollar bailout.

  • Use solar and wind power to turn the garbage back into oil.

  • I guess we scandinavians would die pretty quickly but at least we arent stupid enough to go all the way to south without mittens...

  • Someone's selling Diesel engines.

  • Haha, humans are so stupid...

  • Ethanol? LOL.

  • How can TV still work when there is no fuel or electricity?

  • Abandoned cars make it difficult to respond? They'd be parked on the side of the road as normal.

  • This video is a bit over the top, but we can't run on oil forever. Fortunately it won't run out all at once, which means that these kinds of scenarios are unlikely, given that we can have anywhere from 30 to 100 years to work on the problem. When it does, it will not be the end of civilization as we know it, either, we will just come to a new point of stability after some initial unrest - we'll have to start living more like the Amish in a 18th century lifestyle, which won't be all that bad.

  • This is total BS regarding soy beans into oil. How is the bean farmer going to fertilize with oil based fertilizer? How is the bean farmer supposed to power his tractor or power the irrigation pumps? How is the bean farmer going to move his product?

  • This doc doesn't take into account geopolitics, wars, Iran, China, a whole bunch of shit.

    Just how Canada is going into rapture.

  • Paradoxically enough, McDonald's will go on.

  • 8:25 20 MILLION? Don't tell me some shit like that I'm feeling light headed.

  • Why not use horses?

  • They also don't mention wood gas generation systems. From materials salvaged from a junk yard, I can build a wood gas generator that will power a truck or a tractor using wood chips.

  • Every one of those abandoned cars has ATF in their transmissions. My truck can run on that, although it would smoke. It can also run on the oil in the engines.

    I think they're underestimating the carnage in this video. First there would be a die off due to people not getting their medication. Diabetics would die off quickly. Then municipal water systems would fail and there would be a massive death toll due to people drinking contaminated water (even when they had Clorox in their laundry room)

  • No fuel for industrial farming means tens of millions will starve....

  • Permaculture baby!

  • Actually, hunters would force deer into extinction pretty quickly if things got that bad. There's only 30 million deer in North America, and there are about 17 million registered hunters. If each hunter catches 2 deer, deer will go extinct.

  • canada is using german g36 rifles?

  • Okay, this is assuming that all emergency personnel, Government, and other people who work on the infrastructure will work for no pay.

    This video depicts the best case scenario if oil were to vanish, not the worst.

    One cannot overstate the often brutal nature of many when faced with starvation, lack of resources, no medication,lack of practical survival knowledge, and death.

    I hope it never comes to this type of scenario.

  • @Destroyer470 Small + Earthquakes + All Canadians = Not Happening

  • could you please upload Red giant?

  • @thefluidic the episode were the sun turns into a red giant.

  • @thefluidic Aftermath: Red Giant

  • @thefluidic Aftermath: swallowed by the sun.... really good

  • The Amish really have their shit together!

  • @cowdust51 I can bet the amish would be smiling during this whole crisis and thinking "Now who is backward thinking my english!" probably the only time when an amish person would have the god given right to be smug is during this

  • I like how the rest of the world is like "okay, times are really hard" but Canada has basically descended into Mad Max-style post-apocalyptic insanity.

  • @SlowRiotNewKanada i know and i live in Canada Q_Q

  • @SlowRiotNewKanada Florida got fucked in the ass pretty hard too.

  • @SlowRiotNewKanada yeah DIDNT see that comming honestly O.O and I live in canada..... its like the grey/stanly cup riots times 100

  • The cities will just have to eat Rats. I hear they make excellent burgers.

  • if this would happen there humans would have to learn how to live off the land grow there own food travel by bike or food no one would get to work or school or stores.

  • Another propaganda of oil industry.TRAINS DO NOT NEED OIL! THEY RUN ON ELECTRICITY! In sixties Chrysler built a turbune engin that worked on ANY liquid that would burn! It vanished! Why? It could run on alcohol....which ar those days cost abot 1/2 cents per gallon.This stuff is worse than communist propaganda

  • @chriskar5 BUT you don't realise that this COULD become a reality thank god for scientists who prepared for when this happens or when it will happen you never ever know

    & YES THEY DO NEED OIL.

    but stupid oil companies pay people not to invent stuff that run on water because it makes them lose money

    you dont realise how much the world needs this

  • @chriskar5 where does the electricity come from then, dumbass?

  • @chriskar5 Actually, they do. I looked into it, and I found out that all modern trains are electric but use diesel engines to run big generators to power the electric motors. So, hough they run on electricity, that electricity comes from diesel fuel.

  • 6:31 A D40LF from the ETS (Edmonton Transit System)

  • While this i happening the native tribes around the world keep on living care-free. Our society is a joke!

  • I hope it does not come to this.

  • anyone else find it funny that at 5:22 they are supposed to be in ney york city. (probably in an apartment up high) but you see houses at gound level out side the window.

  • @SgtAndrewM

    lol the new york shot was a still and edited in sony vegas and it looks like national geographic was too cheap to rent a new york apartment for a day
