Prepare, Adapt & Overcome
Let me guess…you’re searching for REAL answers to your SERIOUS questions about hazmat suits.
Why? Because there’s a ton of confusion surrounding these weird looking “suits”.
And a Hazmat Suit is not something you buy often – so you want to get it right the first time.
So, you must decide first, do you even need one, and if so, which one is best…
You need someone you can trust to give you some straight answers.
Hi – I’m Jack – I’m that someone, so let’s begin. [Read more…]
“Sometimes the best hiding place is the one that’s in plain sight.” – Stephanie Meyer
Today, we’re going to discuss hiding in plain sight. But not about hiding “things” using diversion safes, but hiding YOU.
We’re going to dissect the psychology behind Gray Man theory.
The gray man concept is not new. Others have written about it, and we’ve even touched on it in previous articles as well:
There’s nothing that frightens me more than a nuclear attack.
Not only are they the most destructive device known to man, but surviving one might be worse than being wiped out at ground zero.
I realize that sounds morbid but surviving the aftermath is not for the faint of heart.
Just barely surviving the initial blast likely means days or weeks of acute radiation sickness.
Your only chance is to quickly hunker down or die.
So today we’re going to discuss all aspects of how to survive a nuclear attack: [Read more…]
Man, there’s an awful lot of confusion (and misinformation) about portable solar generators.
Seems like every week I get tons of questions about them.
For example:
I get it. These are the very same questions I had.
But the bottom line is:
We all want to know if they’re a reliable source of backup power generation. [Read more…]
Everyone should own a hand crank radio.
I truly believe that.
Why? Because we all have an obligation to prepare for future emergencies.
Regardless of whether you think a widespread global catastrophe is in the cards or not…
Local weather emergencies happen all the time – that’s a fact.
And the hand crank radio is one of the most reliable, versatile, and powerful tools in such an emergency.
So if you’re thinking about getting one, you’re in the right place. [Read more…]
We’ve all seen those new survival reality shows…
The ones where someone is dropped off naked in the jungle. Forced to make everything from scratch, including their clothes.
No thanks; I’d rather start with a good pair of tactical pants!
No matter what your day brings, from the job site to the backcountry, good tactical pants are a lifesaver.
I’m talking about lightweight, abrasion resistant materials with built-in stain resistance.
Pants specifically made to combat the harsh sun, fierce wind, and torrential downpours.
Pants with lots of pockets for all your tactical gear and anything else you need. [Read more…]
Are Acorns Edible? Can Humans Eat Acorns? Are Acorns Poisonous?
Today We’re going to get to the bottom of these questions and more…
Fall is harvest season.
Late summers and early fall are a whirlwind for anyone who hunts, fishes, gardens, and forages.
The time of year when everything becomes available all at once. The last chance we have to stockpile food resources for the coming winter.
Making it one of the busiest times of the year for those who have the proper set of self-reliance skills.
I know I’ve been busy because my pantry is nearly filled to capacity but we still have several months left to top it off. [Read more…]
Let me just say – there’s something incredibly satisfying about cooking a meal with the power of the sun.
Harnessing the power of sun’s rays to slow cook or grill a meal gives me a welling sense of pride.
I enjoy using human ingenuity to capture a little bit of the sun to put warm food in my belly.
And I like knowing that if the power grid were to go down for a long time, I’d still have a way to cook a meal.
Sure, you could cook a meal using fire, but solar ovens don’t require any “extra” resources.
It’s using the “free,” virtually unlimited, readily available fuel and putting it to good use. [Read more…]
Over the years, I’ve seen some pretty incredible claims in the world of outdoor and survival gear.
They usually center on getting something of high value for practically no cost. Using things you already have around the house!
Sound familiar?
Sounds sort of like an infomercial to me…
So, when I was asked to look into candle-powered heaters, I was intrigued.
He had heard stories of building DIY miniature space heaters. Ones built essentially for free with nothing more than a few garden pots and some bolts.
Some people even claim to heat an entire room with nothing but a few tea light candles. [Read more…]
Every serious survivalist dreams of having their own underground survival bunker.
A safe haven where we can escape to in the event of an emergency – an underground shelter where you can take refuge.
Whether you call it a survival bunker, an apocalyptic bunker, a bomb shelter, nuclear shelter or fallout shelter, doesn’t matter.
What matters is: It’s a place you can survive (typically underground).
A bunker with plenty of clean air, fresh water, and food in times epic disaster.
Sure, VIP’s like the President, billionaires, and wealthy moguls have emergency bunkers. [Read more…]
