  • I come from the future.

    Everyone is deadly wrong.

    The nuclear war won't happen in December. December 21st 2012 9:21pm - that is when the first human steps foot out into the barren world.

    The bombs will drop at 1:13pm on October 14th 2012. I'm not able to change the timeline in anyway. But I can save your life at least. Be prepared for fallout, it will block the sun for two months. Make sure you have food, radiation medication - and don't leave your home, also try to make it airtight. Goodbye.

  • @armadillolover1993 wow, the exact date and time. I think you should lay of the meds my friend.

  • Cool

  • Cool

  • whats the name of the sleeping bag???

  • like from information one bag out bag write hear or at spiritwild09@hotmail.com

  • bag looks ok to me

  • How much for only the bag?

  • @assasinscreedskins It was imported from the US so its expencive. £45

    I have since found cheaper bags similar to this in the UK so i will be doing a new video soon with revised prices

  • do you actually have a clue or any experience of what your talking about

  • @jamesspec2010 yes thanks, I have spent many hours learning the subject of survival.. not saying im a pro, but i know enough to be safe in a bug out situation.

  • What about your gun and ammo?

  • @dreamdiction No guns in the UK. Not unless you own land or have a good reason to own a gun, (shotguns, small cal rifles). Crossbows are still legal here i think. I would suggest having one as a replacment for a firearm, if you are that way enclined.

  • hexi stoves are utter shite

  • @thelegend22 there not great no, but hexi blocks are useful, esp in damp/ windy conditions

  • What is the brand name of your pack? It's sick!

  • @imanak2004 BugOut Survival. we have a bug out bag group page on facebook :)

  • So how much are they then ? how can i get one please

  • @daniellyne1 send me an email, i will get back to you with pricing

  • Nice Video, Thanks for sharing this, it is a good starter kit, however If your selling these as a BOB for a person to use in an emergency, ask yourself would you really trust your life in some of that gear...

    A pack of Hexi tabs last on average 24 hrs, Most BOBs are designed for 72 hrs, you may want to add another 2 Boxes, some toilet paper, Life just sucks without it, swap the bin bags for some rubble bags they are more heavy duty and will last longer,

  • i think you could do that for around 40 quid without the survival tin.but you could through one together for about 10 quid anyway so all round 50 rubs...how much you charging?

  • Your better off just getting a 120 LTR DPM Bergen off ebay and filling that up. Those gay US 40ltr day sacks cant carry anything :)

  • how can i get 1 of the bug out bags please respond nice kit by th way

  • tip: if you put your batteries in backwards you can conserve power and keep them stored till you need your (torch) flashlight.

  • @gatorrr83 awesome tip! thanks for sharing

  • Sleeping mat?, LOL, RUFF IT ffs, its weight you dont need to carry.

    there is some worthwhile items in this selection and you do have the right idea of a "bug out bag" being small, because if/when you do need to GTFO in under 5minutes, then this size of bag is very managable.

    But for the price, I'd have a totally different set of items, and you REALLY need a decent sized sharp knife for self defence, a blackend steel knife is the best option.

    as well as a bullet vest w/Famostone plates =0

  • @clitmint Mate I can tell you from experience unless you are fortunate enough to find somewhere with soft ground and VERY springy grass, you NEED a sleeping mat. An alternative is to use something like LOTS of grass under your sleeping bag, but it's hard work

    The green one in this video is the better of the 2 types most commonly sold in the UK

    Just 2 nights without a sleeping mat will give you SERIOUS back/limb problems, trust me! They're really light so hardly a weight consideration.

  • Well overpriced for some basic stuff. The video is very poor quality too, which underlines the amateurish shambles of his con

  • @jezzafox your right. it is over priced. mostly because im paying retail price for each item, plus adding a small 10% profit margin (whiich equals about £20 per bag, but then i loose all this profit when posting the bag to the customer so i actuley make nothing.), also, as you have realised im not a big company with millions of pounds to spend on advertising either. But i will be updating these videos soon and i appreaciate your input and concerns. thanks.

  • @jezzafox LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

  • I would replace the rain mack with a poncho as it doubles up as a shelter.

  • @Cumbriansurvivalist thanks, i might look into that

  • what is the name of the sleeping bag?

  • Good video I think every one should have a bug out bag it's just common sense thanks

  • ummm, ummm, ummm 85 times

  • @tentheagle urmmm.. sorry. mayb i should, urmm. take the video down?

  • Ermm, Ermm......Erm Errrrmmmm . Errrm

  • @Finchaviary thank you for finding flaws in my speech, how nobel of you to point that out. but tbh its your problem if that bugs you, im fine with it

  • @SwitchUpBroadcast Welcome

  • This bag is garbage. I hope nobody even considers buying this, ive seen those mats and the stove at dollarama. The only good thing in this entire kit is the bag itself.

  • @TheBugoutbag i been doing this stuff since i was a kid. where as you set up your "thebugoutbag" youtube account last month and think you can do a better job! You only have one video on your account and its a music video!!! go check my playlists & see the 200+ subscribers i have and tell me which of us knows more about bugging out.. in fact dont bother, im already wasting my time argueing with you.

  • @SwitchUpBroadcast Ya i may have set up my channel last month, but ive been involved in bug out bags, disaster survival preparedness and Survival preparedness for several years. Do you have a Certificate for advanced wilderness survival i dont think so. This account is just for Bug out bag related stuff. Ya you have 200 subscribers. I Have and guess what i dont make videos to advertise your scams and like you said this account is only a month old.

  • @TheBugoutbag i was in a bad mood when i answerd that, apologies. but if you dont want one dont buy one. fact is some people would perfer to have one of these bags if SHTF. the bag provides for the five main basic needs of survival; water, food, fire, shelter, and medical care. True, this bag may not be up to the standards of some survivalists, but then some people cant afford to pay £500+ for a bag they may never have to use.

  • I'd probably stay well clear of ordering this r?~bbish if i were you guys. this guy is trying to make some easy money from people who have no clue, and that = a money grubbing P>>ck...you could buy this rubbish for a fraction of the money

  • @TrebleclefOnAStave

    im not grabbing anyones money. i can show you the invoices of what i paid for each item if you think its a scam.

  • Woow just under £200 ? , bcb survival kit £10 , sleeping bag £10 , the mat £2.99 argos , hexi cooker £5 , hexi blocks £2.99 , luminem master light £12 , wind up light £10 , foil survival bag £5 , mess tins £7 , para cord army standard 50ft £6.99 2 x food kits (army standard) £7.99 ech , foil blankets i get free in nhs , marker pen £1 insect repellant £3 = £92 ? plus you could get a proper burgen army issue for £40 , alot cheaper than this vid man , there my local prices around cardiff =)

  • @TheRedline161 urgh. here we go again

    see the other videos and youl see what else is in the bag. you didnt take into account the first aid kit, nor all the postage costs i paid to have the items deliverd to me, or what it costs for me to post and pack the bag to the customer (the bag is quite heeavy!) or the very small ammount of profit i make on each bag...

    yes, you can source everything yourself, but what if you dont have the time to source all the contents yourslef? then you talk tome

  • @BugoutSurvival Hey man its no diss to the video , great vid ! , i was just saying , i do like your concept though and this vid is great for beginners and even if it was £150- 200 and i was a beginner id buy it , i do love that bag though lol !

  • @TheRedline161 wow, i paid...guess what....less than £10 for my BOB. Although most of my contents, I already had lying around the house. Almost none of it was bought purposely for a BOB.

    Maybe I was just fortunate in that I already had most of the neccesities...

  • @Marktheshtfgenius Yea i wanst really being rude its just im into alot of outdoor stuff myself and especially in my new job , half the items in this specific video are the standard pocket money stuff :/ .. i have no problem with good cheap deals but if your purposley going out on expeditions / situations to call it 'survival' the last thing you want is the basic of basic cheap kit -i love homemade bob's btw very usefull for weekend breaks etc and last minute trips =)

  • Comment removed

  • Rip off

  • @Fadsmashers haha if you say so mate, then dont buy one. other people dont seem to think so, so thank you for your comment

  • @SwitchUpBroadcast They must be yuppies!

  • I'm amazed how many survival packs lack Deet. Other than my own, your's is the first I've seen that includes it. No one seems to think they'll be in the woods in the middle of Summer . . . When the insects are out & about and hungry for human skin.

  • add buct tape super gilue atot of other stuff andyou can fix your pump light o charge your phone

  • add buct tape super gilue atot of other stuff

  • hi

  • hi there i'm new to bushcraft and am about to attempt to make my own survival kit or bob and any helpful information would be greatly appreciated thanks i'm from scotland btw

  • hi there i'm new to bushcraft and am about to attempt to make my own survival kit or bob p.s i'm from scotland

  • if anyone can point me in the direction of any vids or people in the uk who do this for real i would be very happy.in usa they shoot deer etc,i still have a pot noodle lol....i need guiding lol

  • Anyone Know Where To Get A Handgun Or A Powerful Co2 Airsoft Gun What Can Protect Yourself And Family Something Like a Handgun At Least Thank You ?

  • How much are they

  • How can u order them

  • @zanethompson56

    I have recently sold out, and am in the process if re-stocking. I will PM you to your account regarding this. Thanks

  • One item I never seen in bug out bag vids is a water bottle with a built in filter, you can drink river water or pond water with these things and not get sick. Go on Amazon and search for "DrinkSafe" to see the range of bottles and spare filters. To me this is THE most essential item for any bug out bag. The Red Cross use them in disaster zones. Good luck buddy.

  • does eh av a cup o teh?

  • Just so you know, those little squeezy torches don't actually recharge the batteries.

    I have bought a few and dismantled one. The batteries are standard button cells and the electronics are not wired up to charge them (nor could they). I was really disappointed as it seems such a good design for the price. But I will be working on a little modification to make it actually rechargable

  • that green mat sticks out like a sour thumb not good for evasion better pack some heat also get a gun even if you live in the uk get one from the streets the end is near

  • all of this stuff is cheap

  • @gralo5

    lol. Id like to see you get the bag and all whats in it for under £200

  • @SwitchUpBroadcast Haha i know the rough prices depending on where you buy them but you can get all of that for under £200

  • @gralo5

    the bag alone is worth £60. plus i dont think your taking into account p&p. £200 is a fair price, there is aslo a FAK included in the bag which is not shown in this video, see the other video for the contents of the FAK.

  • 3 day assault rifle molle backpack.

    HOLLY SHIT! What ammo?

  • @agun17 .. Dude, i think he's from England and if i'm not mistaken they are not allowed to own guns over there except with with special permission. He's doing his best to utilize that molle bag to suit his need. Bro, just because this is an assault pack don't mean you have to stuff a fricking gun or and an assault rifle in it.

    Hell, i go camping/hiking with a molle bag all the time here in the USA and never once did i have a weapon in it.

    It is just an all around useful and well built bag.

  • @nipzilla

    You are miles away from the point I was trying to make. Here is a hint: Sarcasm.

  • finally, a bug out bag made by a down to earth, british person, nice to see this, instead of an american obsessing about wheres he`s gonna put his 500 rounds of ammo and buck knife, back up bucknife, back up back up buck kife and folding knife... breath of fresh air mate :)

  • what kind of back pack is that id like to get one

  • when are these for sale?

  • @camfifteen

    these bags are on sale now at a discounted price. under £200 inc p&p

  • @camfifteen try on Ebay.

  • what does bug out bag mean

  • @biddycy Bug out bag means it's a bag to keep the bugs out ;) j/k

    It's an emergency, last minute bag which you just grab and get the hell out of Dodge and lay low for awhile when the SHTF (shit hits the fan).

    example: Katrina situation in New Orleans, Louisiana USA a few years ago where mayhem, lawlessness, looting, murder, and disorder were prevalent.

    'Bug out' means 'to lay low or disappear'. A 'bug out bag' is a bag you rely on for survival when the SHTF.

  • I will no longer be replying to comments such as "where would you go", "why would you need one", or similar. It is a waste of my time. If you do not see a reason to own a BOB, or have no idea what they are used for then this video is not for you. I suggest you do some research before making your comment. Thanks for the 12,000 views. please see my playlists for more survival info :)

    stay safe!

  • @BugoutSurvival this is not a retarted question buit wat is a bug out bag

  • these are now HYPE and FUN hobby... but reality is ... where would you go with these bag? LOL

    It just cost you money and has no use for these ....

  • WHERES YOUR MK 4 DPM NBC SUIT?

  • @ryuusel why not?

  • @SensibleStan No idea. Someone else was using my account.

  • if i lived in the U.K i would have "bugged out" a long time ago.

  • Stop saying ERM!

  • how much are they

  • sorry guy's but I dont get why you pome's are selling a kit like this unless your extreme outbound! small country with 68 million people in it, never 20mins away from another person. ray mears you have a lot to answer for hahahahahahahahahaha! get a life or join the scouts.

  • Have you looked at any shelter halves, their not to expensive well at least not in america

  • @theonescaredcat

    I have looked at them, they are great.. and can pack down small as well... I think i may have to start adding them to my bags. Thanks

  • @BugoutSurvival wheres your knife and purifacation tablets you never know whats round the corner

  • please get a tripod man, i got a headache trying to watch

  • Take all the things as the repelent, paracord and survival blanket out of the wrapping, so you can get more space into your backpack. Nice backpack

  • Take all the things as the repelent, paracord, blanket, out of the wrapping

  • you said when we buy it from you weel have it new yet you didnt say how much it will cost and i would like to purchase one from you after you give me the price i would get yiou u send me it in england (kent ) please contact me back on the price of it

  • Everyone forgets water.

    Get the Katadyn Survivor 35. It turns ANY contaminated water into fresh water.

  • thats not how you use a survival stove you need to flip it over them do it

  • Hi, thanks for the reply. I just wanted to know if you had a real life situation in mind, and it seems you don't. In most of the situations you cover, I would rather have a proper rucksack full of useful gear (you can only carry one at once), and if the H1N1 virus did break out, where would you go with this bag? Wherever you went, the virus would be there too. Terrorism was also just too lame to be true. Go go to a relatives out the way, and stay in a house. Just thought I would ask!

  • @raynkar

    true, but as i say. its more of a US thing for this type of bag. Other survival bags i will be stocking soon include a bag for hikers that contains items to aid survival if they get lost, a bag for mountain bikers for the same reason, a bag for pilots in case of an emergency landing in a remote area, and a bag for cars in the event of a breakdown in a remote area. these bags/ packs enable the buyer to give them self heat, food, water, and shelter in the event of an emergency.

  • Where did you get the assault rifle bag? because that would be handy for when i play survival airsoft. We go in teams across the country with only the things in out bags and head off from either sides of a 3-4 mile spread and have an epic airsoft battle.

  • I Have to say your Hexi stove IS upside down... After 8 years in the Army I should know, Also the hexi blocks stove insde the stove for a smaller kit, you can also get a metal mug adaptor for the hexi stove, this fits the issued metal mug perfectly, stick in a metal mug and loose the mess tins. I didn't see a water bottle in your kit. add a lighter, it will be a worthy addition, it will make lighting your hexi blocks much easier

    But on the whole a good video well done

  • nice bag if i seen one like that on ebay before i bought my 3 day large molle bagpack

    i would have got it dear bags fo

  • how much will it be? i have the problem that not many compainies ship to the UK so i can't get a good quality survival bag :@

  • where did you get your hexy stove

  • really good BOB.

  • Thanks, good information.

  • Thanks!

  • I dont know how you brits sleep at night without owning guns? Im just wondering. Nice video man

  • @scain2012

    hehe knowing most of the threats dont have guns helps,,

    also we dont play bassball but u will find a few brits who have them underneath their beds ;)

  • Very useful video.

    Make more! =)

  • how much is it m8

  • First the stove aint upside down the spikes are meant to go into grass or something and heximene does not light easily! ITS A FUCKING NIGHTMARE

  • @DieUSuperMonkeyFuck The Hexie stove is upside down in the video, the spikes dont go into the grass and Hexi Tabs are very easy to light and thats why the military use them. Its a great little survival cooker that I have used an awful lot.

  • @DieUSuperMonkeyFuck

    its not that hard to light hexi tabs, they just require a little practice ;)

  • @DieUSuperMonkeyFuck ,,,,,,,,break up your hexy tabs into fine dust and slithers with a little jutetwine or natural tinder improvised tinder,and it will light no problem,yeah he did have the hexy stv wrong way up,and apart from not having a battery in his torch (with spares).he didnt know the name of a crank torch for at least a min,ther were some good ideas but the begout survival is obviously an enthusiast but not an expert ,not to the standard of selling as a B.O.B,

  • @survivescotland2009

    Im not sure what you mean by not up to standard, all the kit is army issue or reliable "wilderness tools", i dont have the money for fancy advertising, nor can i afford to buy all goods at wholesale price. But once if i can get the funding, i will have better advertising/ videos, and will be able to buy the bags at wholesale price, making the price lower for customers. But this will not be for several months. As i say the bags are in promo stage. thanks for looking

  • @BugoutSurvival

    Hi, if i ignore the silly comments on your hexi stove etc, can you just give one or two 'real life' situations' where this bag would be of any use whatsoever? I do realise almost all folks who use this type of thing would never use it (and only play at things), but as a professional survival/bush craft instructor (and ex army) I cannot think of one situation where this would help at all.

    I'm happy to hear your comments on where you think this could be used in the UK.

  • @raynkar

    War, terrorism, natural or man made disasters, floods, hurricanes, quick evacuation for whatever reason, 2012, bio-terrorism. The bag is just to be on the safe side.

    The bag is an insurance polocy. you could carry one in your car if you travled through remote places often, just in case you broke down or whatever.

    not so much a big thing here as in the US, but people want to be prepared. Imagine if the H1N1 started killing thousands, this bag would allow you to leave quickly.

  • With all the options for gear here in the states one can easily overpack and have a bunch of useless items. It's good to see how the minimalists do it. Remember, you're surviving, not moving your house. Thanks for the post!

  • Dude good luck with your endeavors - it just seems like there are more options for bugging out here "across the pond."

  • there are, And as for the options i have seen both in the UK and "across the pond" in the US are badley put together bags that would proove practicly useless in a bug out situation.

    My bags contain all quality items. prooven and tested in survival situations. I will be supplying bags to a US dealer soon if you are intrested.

  • Dude you are on an island that is a totalitarian surveillance society. Where are you gonna "bug-out to?"

  • we have forests etc. impossible to put under surveillance

  • lamb with pilaf?

    sounds tasty! it must be brit issue.

  • how much is that rucksack and where do u get it

  • That bag is exclusive to the Bugout range. They are very high quality and durable, it also has MOLLE attachments to carry extra kit, FAK, slingshot, food, etc.

    Thanks.

  • Uploaded my UK bug out bag video, hope you find it usefull and maybe get some ideas from it.

  • Don't take this the wrong way as I mean it constructively:

    For a "kit" this seems very incomplete. Also you stated that you have not used every item. If you are going to sell this you should demonstrate that it adequately covers the survivor's needs (over a 72 hour period if touting it as a 72 hour kit). Also it would be good if you can demonstrate the quality of each item (again by using it and putting it through it's paces).Cont...

  • I could source all of the individual items that make up this kit for less than £135 in under 5 minutes and that is being fair since I went with the average price of each item and not the cheapest. Convenience is not even a factor here since what you are offering is not an all in one solution. If you are going to charge £200 demonstrate that what you are offering is a complete starter kit suited to your target market which I presume is the inexperienced survivor.

  • Ensure that each and every item is decent quality and highly durable. Inspire confidence in your product by using it under testing conditions and demonstrating the quality and the usefulness of every single item. Personally I wouldn't entertain the idea of buying a kit unless it was proven to meet all of my needs and was made up entirely of items which I was positive I could rely on and it would have to be very good value for what I paid for it.

  • I realize you stated that you will be upgrading this kit but there appears to be no video of the new one so I can only comment on what I have seen. I hope my comments don't seem to harsh.

    Best Regards

  • @pissytrousers

    Nah i appreacite the feedback.

    end of the day if it will help people i will consider adding it to my bags.

    Bear in mind this bag is the old unfinished bag, there are more items included now. Im just waiting to get the video cam to rec an updated vid.

    Thanks.

  • excellent video. Too bad you cant add a rifle on your side of the pond. In a bug out, they are worth their weight in gold. Great video!

  • Great stuff!!! I Made my own BOB from 2 other bags. It took weeks but it is designed to carry my compound bow (I don't have a gun YET cause I need a license here in canada.) and other Items. I have a military fanny pack with night vision, and radios and other stuff. I don't have a sleeping mat cause I think It's bulky but then again even my night vision monocular is bulky. Pack light, travel light.

  • despite the other peoples comments I liked your vid. alsos I understand that the idea was to show the stuff not to explain how to use it. If a person can't find 1-2 20oz soda bottoles lying around something has gone way to wrong. I love the mole bag I have a couple of different kinds but yours seems better than mine. The green survival tin is nice to. Good vid. 5/5

  • i got the exact same mess tins

  • 2 flashlights?!?

    no means to make fire?!?

    also you got the stove upside down...

  • @bushcraftmyway

    I double up on essentials, one may run out of battries, so I included the wind up as a backup.

    there is a firesteel, and the option to add a magnisum fire starter as well if needed, there are also waterproof matches included. these will be displayed in the updated UK bug out kit video.

    I realise the stove is upside down, I have not had the chance to use them much. again, This will be corrected on the future video.

    Thanks

  • um- the survival tin comes with a fire starter. watch his vid on it.

  • No poncho, water container or knife/tool . This bob is useless. Not worth 200 guy.

  • @leestephenj

    I'm sorry, you obviously dont understand. I shall explain more clearly for you to understand better.

    there is now a poncho included, this video was of the un-finished BOB, it is now finished and a new video will be uploaded with the extra contents soon. (first aid kit, lightstick, poncho, etc)

    I cannot sell knives as part of my BOB yet, i need a licence, we advise you buy your own knife and attach it yourself to the MOLLE rig yourself.

  • @slimpickinzz

    There are 2 pockets either side of the BOB where you can put 2 small coke sized bottles filled up with water, or whatever, so a canteen or flask would be un-nessesary, and cost more. but there will be the option to add one if the buyer wanted to.

    Lastly, the £200 cost of the bug out bag is VERY CHEAP. considering every item and the bag iteslf cost me personally up to £180. You could always source everything yourself and end up paying more for postage if you like??

  • Did you not see the yellow poncho he picks up and states what it was. watch the vid again and pay attention this time.

  • when will these be for sale? and how much are they going to retail for? cheers steve

  • @streetfighterste90

    Hi Steve. Pack is on sale now!

    We are currently in test trading, during this promotonal period the bags will be cheaper (until March 2010).

    Latest additions to this bag include a shemagh, 12 hour lightstick, pack of tissues, Duct Tape, hand sanatizer, zip ties, and a decent first aid kit.

  • @streetfighterste90

    cost of this Promo bag is £200. Contact me for more info (pricing and bag contents list)

    Items and contents are high quality (army/ surplus items), so no junk or cheapy items like in most other 72 hour kits.

    We offer most payment methods, and a no hassle return polocy.

  • the cooker goes the other way round so it keeps the blocks off of the ground

  • @jeffries1967

    Yeah someone else mentioned that. It just looks like the wavey bit should be pointed at the ground to keep it secure, But it makes more sence to not have the hexy blocks on the floor.

  • Nice BOB Nathan, you might wana stick a couple of cheap bits in your kit that i have in my EDC. Check out my EDC vid if you want.Great vid mate keep up the good work.

  • @SurvivalZombie

    Favourited. :)

  • Comment removed

  • whats the website?

  • Nice kit, good to see you posting.Keep 'em coming.

  • do you have discount dollar store in the UK just asking because that lever flash light/torch is sold here for a dollar.

    i like these UK bug out kits very different than those in the states. i feel for you wish you guys could own the guns that we are allowed to.

  • @cbr6864

    Cant remember where i got the torch, we have poundland which is kinda the English version of a dollar store haha.

    That wind up torch is actuley no longer included in this bag, it has beed replaced with a larger and more powerfull wind up torch.

    And yes, we really have strict gun laws over here, but crossbows are still legal...

  • good vid mate ,keep collecting and make it soon as i think the world is heading for trouble,get yourself some sort of folding saw ,and a good airifle,also make room for water carryers and more food
