Wilderness Survival Kit: 10 Essentials You NEED

Wilderness Survival Kit: 10 Essentials You NEED

This is a basic Wilderness Survival Kit! Hopefully you won’t need to use these in a real survival situation. I find a lot of situations don’t have to cause you to worry though if you have a simple kit like this with you in the wilderness.

Incase you want to pick up your own kit, here are some essentials I mentioned.

    Where do you make these kinds of videos

  2. @JohnWest-zq5gs on March 6, 2025 at 3:05 pm

    Have a bag of corn chips easiest way to start a fire

  3. @MikBar-nj8jq on March 6, 2025 at 3:08 pm

    The problem with lint is it stinks

  4. @pakleader4 on March 6, 2025 at 3:08 pm

    Well I guess you’re wrong because Mother Nature tires to kill you daily! In The woods Mother Nature is like a black widow spider she makes it look very enticing and you have to escape her grip once your escapades is over. If your talking to survivalist then why do they try and teach techniques to sustain your stay. Anything can happen in the woods but to survive it is another story. TO BE IN A SURVIVAL SITUATION YOU LACK CERTAIN GEAR otherwise you wouldn’t be in that situation if you had it. Having a certain piece of gear or item saids you have the skill set necessary to operate it and utilize it properly. Of course there are idiots that think they know how to use or do certain activities with proper equipment 🤨 and DON’T!!!!? Mother Nature in her grand design made it 😢 so you will die one day and all living things must die eventually so to me that statement is false. When engaging treks no matter how small anything can happen life threatening. Your determination and knowledge can or will prevail, but for a lack of gear necessary to aid you can make or break you. Just like a lack of knowledge. Mother Nature does not give you an instruction manual while your out there, your relying on knowledge handed down by others and hopefully that knowledge is very acute and trustworthy. When… you have so many fake survivalist on YouTube in that their GLAMOUR is going to get someone killed trying there doppelgänger techniques and not been truly tested or have never been in a survival scenario a day in there life or lifestyle. Creative scenarios are prefigured to allow a person to walk away unscathed DAVE CANTERBURY is one of those individuals and lots more who follow his stuff. You guys are not thinking thing’s thru!!!

    All you need for survival is really expensive and – no matrer where functioning – sarellite phone.

    Most of you would die with Eese 4, magnesium rod and tarp with cooking kit. So better get a good satellite phone so you can be located

  6. @philcann4672 on March 6, 2025 at 3:09 pm

    You are a prepper you have prepared a bag. You leave it by your door if anything happens that’s prepping

  7. @ICanHazRecon911 on March 6, 2025 at 3:09 pm

    I completely agree with everything in this video, but would only say to emphasize your first aid more. A small cut can rot extremely fast without modern medicine, and a small sprain can be debilitating or even fatal if you can’t move to do what you need to. Spot on otherwise though

  8. @JulianJohnston919 on March 6, 2025 at 3:10 pm

    Don’t forget guys, there are two types of preppers and you should create your bag aaccordingly. Are you going to hang around where you broke down, or are you going out to find help?

  9. @michaelscott5917 on March 6, 2025 at 3:11 pm

    A pretty good kit for townies and people who aren’t use to being in the woods

  10. @wcookiv on March 6, 2025 at 3:12 pm

    Some people pack fish hooks and line, but have you ever tried to fish with a stick? I pack a little two piece ice fishing rod and spinner, and a couple of generic soft-baits. Then again, I live in "the land of 100,000 lakes" so no matter how lost you get you’re never very far from a hungry walleye.

  11. @eujinlee9936 on March 6, 2025 at 3:14 pm

    Great 👌 info bro, but the speed talking is annoying 😅

  12. @merikatools568 on March 6, 2025 at 3:17 pm

    Where the baby oil in case Diddy get out?

  13. @numeric.alphabet on March 6, 2025 at 3:18 pm

    Secara bukan tutupnya adhesive at each

  14. @michealmclaughlin429 on March 6, 2025 at 3:20 pm

    why not a solar powered lamp?

  15. @TheOutdoorInc on March 6, 2025 at 3:23 pm

    You forgot the most important items and that is the clothes you are wearing along with shoes. Pack warm clothes in that bag along with gloves and a beanie!!!!

  16. @numeric.alphabet on March 6, 2025 at 3:24 pm

    Bukan tutupnya batubara bubuk bricket

    "Have it in wilderness" bro i need this everyday inside my apartment

  18. @jaxalynnichols6734 on March 6, 2025 at 3:26 pm

    Helpful ! We have a three day 3v3v3 air soft war across 130 acres in the pacific north west how about some sort of animal defense/animal traps

  19. @petersimon7266 on March 6, 2025 at 3:30 pm

    Another pair of socks.

  20. @SilverBull-r3c on March 6, 2025 at 3:32 pm

  23. @daganmccombs4961 on March 6, 2025 at 3:35 pm

    also you can buy a large pack of lighters for not even 5$ and that alone will last you a few years. quick and easy. And to go a step further you can wrap the handles of all of your lighters with duct tape! just a convenient and lightweight solution to some issues you might encounter.

  24. @atlasproduction4773 on March 6, 2025 at 3:35 pm

    A zippo can also do the job

  25. @electricheartpony on March 6, 2025 at 3:36 pm

    If you can fit it, bring a bic lighter. Can light a fire with it with or without any fuel.

  26. @denofearthundertheeverlast5138 on March 6, 2025 at 3:38 pm

    You can survive longer than 3 weeks without food, I got sepsis in 2020, thought I had covid because the symptom’s were just like I had the flu and covid had just started..coughing, shuddering chills, splitting head when I coughed, stinky sweats, cluster headaches, loss of appetite, I suffered at home for a month without eating because I thought I’d just ride the covid out for two weeks, but I never got better, I started to feel like I was getting better but it never progressed to full recovery, so then went to the hospital and thats when I found out I was very lucky to have survived a very nasty case of sepsis.

  27. @analyticofexistance7847 on March 6, 2025 at 3:41 pm

    My only criticism is "mother nature isn’t trying to kill us"? I know a lot of people who would suggest otherwise 😂

  28. @akeelyaqub2538 on March 6, 2025 at 3:41 pm

    Its scary how fast you can go from living comfortably to suddenly needing everything in this video.

  29. @dallasdon4662 on March 6, 2025 at 3:41 pm

    You know what’s better than a lighter or matches a magnifying glass

  30. @adamfloyd3828 on March 6, 2025 at 3:44 pm

    Can you spell the bag you showed👌.

  31. @erasmogarcia4197 on March 6, 2025 at 3:47 pm

    What the name of the bag again?

  32. @donnywilkes6417 on March 6, 2025 at 3:48 pm

    A tourniquet is the most important to have.

  33. @S.WilliamsArrow on March 6, 2025 at 3:50 pm

    Good Job Sir

  34. @bradley6386 on March 6, 2025 at 3:52 pm

    Always bring more water than you think you need. I have regretted bringing too much crap many many times. But running out of water is a real bummer. One time i was on a weak long hiking trip and me and my buddy ran completely out of water. Ita not fun. We only went a few hours we found water luckily but if you were completely lost, it would be a major blow psychologicaly

  35. @robertsavard3508 on March 6, 2025 at 3:53 pm

    Most ppl cheap on the tarp like your bivy shelter. Don’t bother with throw away ones. Get something decent. Shelters very important

  36. @sayf3115 on March 6, 2025 at 3:55 pm

    George Clooney?

  37. @JasonTrometre79 on March 6, 2025 at 3:56 pm

    I just reserve that bucket my local library. I’m doing a hike from San Francisco up to British Columbia in search a few mushroom mushrooms. In the United States this year because I’m mushrooms in Oregon

  38. @MrCobb-rq8iv on March 6, 2025 at 3:57 pm

    Too busy, too noisy, too colorful, be hunted down in the first or second wave

  39. @rtopalovich on March 6, 2025 at 3:57 pm

    Extra batteries!

  40. @jeffreybrooks4061 on March 6, 2025 at 3:58 pm

    Excellent video great content 👍

  41. @arizonaoum6930 on March 6, 2025 at 3:59 pm

    When there a danger places like floods or wildfires pack your survival backpack

  42. @DavidAlki88 on March 6, 2025 at 4:00 pm

    3 hours without warmth?? pretty sure i survived days in afghanistan

  43. @Randers69 on March 6, 2025 at 4:01 pm

    Small portable solar panel with rechargeable headlamp and flashlight instead of anything with disposable batteries or that can burn up like a candle. I bought one of those usb solar panels and it folds up to about 10 inch by 6 inch and is incredibly thin, you won’t even notice it in a pack. You don’t want to be out there and not be able to tell what’s around you. That’s one little piece of advice for a pack. Also, metal water bottle for boiling water after you run it through a light filter.

  44. @matt79de on March 6, 2025 at 4:01 pm

    I certainly love the last tip: If you’re stuck in a survival situation, a book is great for moral and a *survival book* is even helpful. Although i’m not carrying yours yet, i am carrying one in my emergency rucksack in the car. A hatchet and those "pocket chainsaws" are also nice, esp. for cars. As far as a medikit goes: Imo the most overlooked items in those are a nail file, a pair of scissors for nails, something for tick removal (the particular item depends on personal preference i guess), hand sanitizer and some wound desinfectectant. (I throw these into all my medikits.) Also, a nice pair of thick gloves is worth carrying.
    Other things i like to have around: The Titan Survival emergency sleeping bag and blankets, their SurvivorCord v1 (not the v2), the Bahco Laplander folding saw, the Morakniv Bushcraft Survival, some fatwood, a roll of toilet paper, a couple of packs of Kleenex, a snack and… wait for it: A bag of treats and a can of dog food for the dog plus folding bowls. You never know when you get stuck for the night when travelling with the dog: Traffic jam in winter/car breakdown with no cell service/…
    More of a car item imho: I also love to have a folding shovel on board. (Winter/mud/… you know…)

  46. @mvk24 on March 6, 2025 at 4:02 pm
