Yes that NatGeo show is a bit over the top I like how they all have their version apocalypse as if the universe revolves around them and will end in a manner that perfectly fits their plans.And they want to carry a lot of stuff for a bag that you are supposed to have available at all times.I am sure that selling all this gear is becoming a big industry who cares if 90% of the buyers have no idea what they are doing.
To plan for a disaster that is reasonable but planning for a world ending/changing event is a bit unrealistic and even if you do you should accept the fact that you may not survive at or not for long so all that money you spent might be a waste.If the end is a nuclear war I'd rather be right at the epicenter of one the blasts to be honest.
I notice on that show that many of them have stashes hidden in various locations if you make a cashe then there is a chance that someone else can find it as well especially if they are looking for them.
I think that the Survivor Man Less Stroud has the best chance and he really knows a lot he has trained US and British elite forces about survival.
. Hilarious show. Wife and I watch it for laughs. What's more hilarious is a good number of these doomsday preppers are from Utah. At least one of which they had on that show is from Orem, which is where we currently live. We now call her "The crazy orem lady".
Yup, after watching several episodes of this show, the wife and I have decided that we are going to start doomsday prepping for the incoming idiocracy.
