This woman has no idea what she is talking about...

[marionmedic]

i am ASHAMED.

How can there be ANYONE in the EMA , Fire, or EMS world that thinks these things would save you???

And trying to rip people off by charging $50???

I hope people look at the other videos on youtube and read stuff on the net.

Frugal's would be a great place to start.

THIS IS KIT IS GOING TO GET SOMEBODY KILLED! DO NOT LISTEN TO HER!

Wow she says umm a lot.

@marionmedic as inadequate as this kit is, it does contain about $50 worth of gear. It would make a good supplement, as long as the buyer isn't foolish enough to think that this kit alone is enough.

this his hold long you would last with that kit-1 to 2 hours haha

And she did it all with a straight face.

First thing i would recommend is condensing the first aid kit into a millitary surplus bag to get rid of that null space.

1 gallon per person per day

Whos gunna carry that much?

A bic lighter would come in handy. Waterproof matches probably aren't bad , but I figure I can get a lot more fire out of the lighter.

@Christopher711 As a teenager I used a tube tent for several years while camping. Spent several nights in 0 to 10 degree weather camped in it. I used it for two weeks summer of 74 then at least once a month some times twice for the next 3 to 4 years. Very glad to have the money to purchase a larger tent especially on week long trips.
