1
00:00:01,184 --> 00:00:02,751
Narrator: Across the country,
2
00:00:02,819 --> 00:00:04,687
ordinary Americans
from all walks of
3
00:00:04,754 --> 00:00:06,789
life are taking
whatever measures
4
00:00:06,856 --> 00:00:08,390
necessary to prepare.
5
00:00:08,458 --> 00:00:09,969
Braxton southwick: My
family is preparing
6
00:00:09,993 --> 00:00:12,294
for a biological
terrorist attack.
7
00:00:12,362 --> 00:00:13,873
Bryan may: For the
new Madrid earthquake.
8
00:00:13,897 --> 00:00:15,764
Wilma Bryant: For a
series of f5 tornadoes.
9
00:00:15,865 --> 00:00:17,633
Narrator: And protect themselves
10
00:00:17,701 --> 00:00:18,567
man: Watch it, man.
11
00:00:18,635 --> 00:00:19,795
Push him away, push him away.
12
00:00:20,336 --> 00:00:21,537
Blevins: Stop right there!
13
00:00:21,604 --> 00:00:23,364
Narrator: From what they
perceive as the fast
14
00:00:23,406 --> 00:00:26,125
approaching end of the
world as we know it.
15
00:00:28,728 --> 00:00:29,661
Dahhh!
16
00:00:29,729 --> 00:00:32,164
Braxton: Leave her alone!
17
00:00:33,266 --> 00:00:35,401
Narrator: Next, we
go inside the lives
18
00:00:35,468 --> 00:00:37,269
of three committed preppers.
19
00:00:37,337 --> 00:00:38,647
Josh wander: There's
going to be a lot of
20
00:00:38,671 --> 00:00:40,489
people dying very quickly.
21
00:00:40,557 --> 00:00:42,391
Narrator: Who have
devised extensive plans.
22
00:00:42,425 --> 00:00:45,861
Croft: More arms works
better than less arms.
23
00:00:45,929 --> 00:00:47,229
Narrator: Gone to great lengths.
24
00:00:47,330 --> 00:00:48,263
Josh wander: Go on and
treat the wounded!
25
00:00:48,331 --> 00:00:50,099
Come on, quickly, quickly!
26
00:00:50,166 --> 00:00:52,367
Narrator: And made
huge personal sacrifices
27
00:00:52,435 --> 00:00:54,536
to ensure their very survival.
28
00:00:54,637 --> 00:00:57,940
Jade Kay: Half a million
dollars for a helicopter?
29
00:00:58,007 --> 00:01:00,275
Narrator: The experts
will assess their preps,
30
00:01:00,343 --> 00:01:01,620
to see if they
have what it takes.
31
00:01:01,644 --> 00:01:02,978
Ryan croft: You've got chaos.
32
00:01:03,046 --> 00:01:04,947
That's where the
prepper steps in.
33
00:01:05,014 --> 00:01:06,849
Narrator: To survive.
34
00:01:06,916 --> 00:01:10,686
Alexis Kay: It's not as easy
as it looks in video games.
35
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,857
Narrator: This is
doomsday preppers.
36
00:01:27,987 --> 00:01:29,955
Bob Kay is the
wealthy creator of a
37
00:01:30,023 --> 00:01:33,392
hugely successful
vitamin supplement.
38
00:01:33,460 --> 00:01:35,994
Living in temecula,
California, Bob,
39
00:01:36,062 --> 00:01:38,430
his wife and two
young daughters have
40
00:01:38,498 --> 00:01:40,766
almost everything
they could ask for.
41
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,701
Bob Kay: I live on
two and a half acres.
42
00:01:42,769 --> 00:01:45,003
The views are spectacular.
43
00:01:45,071 --> 00:01:46,839
I can see mountains
in the distance.
44
00:01:46,906 --> 00:01:48,607
I can see the wineries.
45
00:01:48,675 --> 00:01:50,309
It's just an absolute wonderful
46
00:01:50,376 --> 00:01:52,945
area to live in.
47
00:01:53,012 --> 00:01:54,980
Narrator: But Bob fears
that the cost of owning
48
00:01:55,048 --> 00:01:56,849
this high-priced
real estate could
49
00:01:56,916 --> 00:01:59,785
one day be the lives
of his family because
50
00:01:59,853 --> 00:02:03,789
they're sitting on a
ticking time bomb.
51
00:02:04,124 --> 00:02:05,901
Bob Kay: I'm preparing
for a massive earthquake
52
00:02:05,925 --> 00:02:09,428
that will change
society as we know it.
53
00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:15,200
I know something is
going to go wrong.
54
00:02:15,268 --> 00:02:16,935
I think the people
that say nothing will
55
00:02:17,003 --> 00:02:18,637
go wrong and everything
will go right,
56
00:02:18,705 --> 00:02:23,142
I think they're obsessive
in the wrong direction.
57
00:02:23,209 --> 00:02:25,677
We live on Graham
cracker crust here.
58
00:02:25,745 --> 00:02:27,379
In this part of
Southern California we
59
00:02:27,447 --> 00:02:29,882
don't have one fault,
we have approximately
60
00:02:29,949 --> 00:02:32,017
five or six major faults.
61
00:02:32,085 --> 00:02:34,453
Narrator: Although most
are too small to feel,
62
00:02:34,521 --> 00:02:36,455
roughly 10,000
earthquakes strike
63
00:02:36,523 --> 00:02:39,191
Southern California every year.
64
00:02:39,259 --> 00:02:41,360
Bob believes it's
just a matter of time
65
00:02:41,427 --> 00:02:43,462
before one of them is
powerful enough to
66
00:02:43,530 --> 00:02:47,866
destroy his community and
throw society into chaos.
67
00:02:48,434 --> 00:02:50,335
Bob Kay: We have major
earthquake faults
68
00:02:50,403 --> 00:02:52,704
running directly under
the major freeways here.
69
00:02:52,772 --> 00:02:55,641
It wouldn't take much for
a major earthquake to
70
00:02:55,708 --> 00:02:59,077
pretty much sever those
arteries so that folks
71
00:02:59,145 --> 00:03:01,980
can't get materials in
and they can't get out.
72
00:03:02,048 --> 00:03:04,483
Narrator: If a magnitude
7.8 quake or stronger
73
00:03:04,551 --> 00:03:08,420
hits California, it could
topple 1,500 buildings,
74
00:03:08,488 --> 00:03:10,856
kill 2,000 people and damage and
75
00:03:10,924 --> 00:03:13,041
disrupt the
infrastructure survivors
76
00:03:13,109 --> 00:03:17,312
would depend on for
getting food and water.
77
00:03:17,380 --> 00:03:19,615
So Bob's plan is to
turn his two and a
78
00:03:19,682 --> 00:03:23,518
half acre estate into a
self-sustaining oasis
79
00:03:23,586 --> 00:03:25,487
where his family
can safely wait out
80
00:03:25,555 --> 00:03:28,824
the chaos following
a killer quake.
81
00:03:28,892 --> 00:03:32,144
And he's not afraid to
spend money to do it.
82
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:33,912
Bob Kay: I don't
do anything small.
83
00:03:33,980 --> 00:03:36,181
Over the course of the
last twelve months
84
00:03:36,249 --> 00:03:39,518
I've spent approximately
$150,000 on my preps.
85
00:03:39,586 --> 00:03:42,221
I've been extremely
successful at what I do.
86
00:03:42,288 --> 00:03:44,423
And that has allowed me
to have the financial
87
00:03:44,490 --> 00:03:47,092
resources and the time to
be able to invest part of
88
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,063
my life to making sure my
family is taken care of.
89
00:03:51,130 --> 00:03:53,332
Narrator: Many preppers
dream about the elaborate
90
00:03:53,399 --> 00:03:55,934
things they would buy, if
money were not an object.
91
00:03:56,002 --> 00:03:58,270
For Bob having multiple back-up
92
00:03:58,338 --> 00:04:01,106
bug-out vehicles
is worth any cost.
93
00:04:01,174 --> 00:04:03,141
Bob Kay: My preferred
bug out vehicle?
94
00:04:03,209 --> 00:04:05,744
Motorcycle, nothing
impedes the motorcycle.
95
00:04:05,812 --> 00:04:08,080
Yocan get pretty
much anywhere on it.
96
00:04:08,147 --> 00:04:11,883
And I don't have
just one, I have six.
97
00:04:11,951 --> 00:04:15,887
Narrator: The motorcycles
cost Bob another $110,000.
98
00:04:15,955 --> 00:04:19,524
He spent $35,000 more
landscaping his estate and
99
00:04:19,626 --> 00:04:23,996
every tree and shrub
serves a prepper purpose
100
00:04:24,063 --> 00:04:26,231
Bob Kay: I have well
over 300 different types
101
00:04:26,299 --> 00:04:28,400
of plants that can be
used for food either by
102
00:04:28,468 --> 00:04:31,770
their fruiting or
the plant directly.
103
00:04:31,838 --> 00:04:33,972
Narrator: Bob dropped
another $100,000
104
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,708
on a pool in order
to have 35,000
105
00:04:36,776 --> 00:04:38,844
gallons in his
backyard that he can
106
00:04:38,911 --> 00:04:41,546
filter into portable
drinking water.
107
00:04:41,614 --> 00:04:43,582
Bob Kay: Once we
distill it and then
108
00:04:43,650 --> 00:04:45,050
just run it through
a carbon filter,
109
00:04:45,118 --> 00:04:46,485
it's fine.
110
00:04:46,552 --> 00:04:48,687
You're taking the water,
turning it into a gas,
111
00:04:48,755 --> 00:04:50,122
and then converting
it back right
112
00:04:50,189 --> 00:04:51,923
into a liquid again.
113
00:04:52,024 --> 00:04:54,826
Cheers.
114
00:04:54,894 --> 00:04:56,361
What do you think?
115
00:04:56,429 --> 00:04:59,097
Alexis Kay: Tastes just
like normal water.
116
00:04:59,165 --> 00:05:00,832
Narrator: No matter
how hot it gets,
117
00:05:00,900 --> 00:05:02,634
Bob's forbidden his
kids from swimming
118
00:05:02,702 --> 00:05:04,002
during the day.
119
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:05,704
He doesn't want their sunscreen
120
00:05:05,772 --> 00:05:07,639
to contaminate the water.
121
00:05:07,707 --> 00:05:10,375
But his daughter, Alexis,
still fully supports
122
00:05:10,443 --> 00:05:13,478
her father's extravagant
prepping habit.
123
00:05:13,713 --> 00:05:15,024
Alexis Kay: I like
prepping with my dad,
124
00:05:15,048 --> 00:05:16,715
I think it's pretty fun.
125
00:05:16,783 --> 00:05:18,684
I'm pretty much the one
that comes up with the
126
00:05:18,751 --> 00:05:21,019
ideas and then my
dad buys the preps.
127
00:05:21,087 --> 00:05:23,155
Narrator: Today, Bob
and Alexis are looking
128
00:05:23,222 --> 00:05:24,923
for a freeze-dried food source
129
00:05:24,991 --> 00:05:26,458
they can stock up on,
130
00:05:26,526 --> 00:05:28,827
in case earthquakes
one day destroy
131
00:05:28,895 --> 00:05:30,796
California's supply lines.
132
00:05:30,863 --> 00:05:33,565
Chris: One of my favorites
is freeze-dried chicken.
133
00:05:33,633 --> 00:05:34,833
Bob Kay: I love this.
134
00:05:34,901 --> 00:05:36,368
I mean, this is,
this is the ultimate
135
00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:38,070
high-tech prepper food.
136
00:05:38,137 --> 00:05:39,415
Chris: You'll notice it actually
137
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:41,540
kind of rehydrates in your mouth.
138
00:05:41,607 --> 00:05:42,941
Bob: You know what?
139
00:05:43,009 --> 00:05:44,643
That's really good.
140
00:05:44,711 --> 00:05:45,888
Alexis Kay: Just like chicken.
141
00:05:45,912 --> 00:05:46,845
There's nothing fake in it,
142
00:05:46,913 --> 00:05:48,046
it's just chicken.
143
00:05:48,114 --> 00:05:49,848
Bob Kay: Can you put
together like two
144
00:05:49,916 --> 00:05:51,016
or three palettes of stuff?
145
00:05:51,084 --> 00:05:52,261
What do you think it would cost,
146
00:05:52,285 --> 00:05:53,485
per year, per person?
147
00:05:53,553 --> 00:05:57,022
Chris: Somewhere between
$12,000 and $16,000 a year.
148
00:05:57,090 --> 00:05:59,057
Bob Kay: I do spend
towards the upper end.
149
00:05:59,125 --> 00:06:01,393
I make sure that I get a
good value on what I'm
150
00:06:01,461 --> 00:06:03,562
purchasing and I want
to make it so it lasts.
151
00:06:03,629 --> 00:06:05,464
Narrator: The average
American household
152
00:06:05,531 --> 00:06:09,301
spends roughly $3,700
on groceries each year.
153
00:06:09,369 --> 00:06:11,686
Bob just spent
more than 10 times
154
00:06:11,754 --> 00:06:13,922
that in a single day.
155
00:06:13,990 --> 00:06:15,624
Now he has to tell his wife,
156
00:06:15,691 --> 00:06:18,060
Jade and she doesn't
always find her
157
00:06:18,127 --> 00:06:20,996
husband's spendthrift
ways amusing.
158
00:06:21,064 --> 00:06:22,330
Jade Kay: I'm not a prepper.
159
00:06:22,398 --> 00:06:25,267
I think it's kind of, uh, weird.
160
00:06:25,334 --> 00:06:26,735
It's weird;
161
00:06:26,803 --> 00:06:28,370
it's a little bit crazy.
162
00:06:28,438 --> 00:06:29,971
I don't think, you know,
163
00:06:30,039 --> 00:06:31,706
that something will happen.
164
00:06:31,774 --> 00:06:33,308
How much did this food cost?
165
00:06:33,376 --> 00:06:34,653
Bob Kay: Uh, it's
very reasonable.
166
00:06:34,677 --> 00:06:35,577
It's um.
167
00:06:35,645 --> 00:06:37,112
Jade Kay: Reasonable means what?
168
00:06:37,180 --> 00:06:38,680
Bob Kay: Uh, about $40,000.
169
00:06:38,748 --> 00:06:39,781
Jade Kay: What?
170
00:06:39,849 --> 00:06:40,632
Bob Kay: Yeah.
171
00:06:40,733 --> 00:06:42,000
Jade Kay: $40,000 for food!
172
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:43,335
What if nothing happens?
173
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:45,103
What are you going
to do with the food?
174
00:06:45,171 --> 00:06:47,139
Bob Kay: That, that's
a very good question.
175
00:06:47,206 --> 00:06:50,075
In terms of how I prep,
I always think of the
176
00:06:50,143 --> 00:06:52,344
greatest value, because
if my life's on the line
177
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:54,279
or my family's welfare
is on the line,
178
00:06:54,347 --> 00:06:55,758
I don't want to have
to be second guessing
179
00:06:55,782 --> 00:06:57,616
what I've done.
180
00:06:57,683 --> 00:06:59,184
Narrator: Bob and
Alexis spend much of
181
00:06:59,252 --> 00:07:01,553
their quality time
together prepping.
182
00:07:01,621 --> 00:07:03,755
But they worry that their
home full of expensive
183
00:07:03,823 --> 00:07:05,924
preps would be an
irresistible target
184
00:07:05,992 --> 00:07:08,427
for desperate, violent
looters in the chaos
185
00:07:08,494 --> 00:07:10,745
following catastrophic
earthquakes.
186
00:07:10,813 --> 00:07:13,448
So recently, they've been
focusing on security
187
00:07:13,516 --> 00:07:15,217
and defensive preps.
188
00:07:15,284 --> 00:07:16,762
Bob Kay: If the house were
to become compromid
189
00:07:16,786 --> 00:07:18,153
or I am not able to get home,
190
00:07:18,221 --> 00:07:20,989
Alexis is fully capable
of defending herself.
191
00:07:21,057 --> 00:07:22,167
Narrator: Like many children,
192
00:07:22,191 --> 00:07:24,960
Alexis is drawn to martial arts.
193
00:07:25,027 --> 00:07:27,062
She received her second
degree black belt
194
00:07:27,130 --> 00:07:29,364
in tae-Kwon-do when she was ten.
195
00:07:29,432 --> 00:07:31,867
Bob Kay: Uhmphf
196
00:07:33,369 --> 00:07:34,847
narrator: But Alexis
wants to be able to
197
00:07:34,871 --> 00:07:37,405
defend herself before a
violent confrontation
198
00:07:37,473 --> 00:07:40,408
comes down to
hand-to-hand combat.
199
00:07:40,476 --> 00:07:42,711
She recently told her
father she wanted
200
00:07:42,778 --> 00:07:45,280
to learn how to throw knives.
201
00:07:45,348 --> 00:07:47,716
So Bob custom built a
target range on his
202
00:07:47,783 --> 00:07:50,252
property and bought her $1,000
203
00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:52,487
worth of top of the line knives.
204
00:07:52,555 --> 00:07:55,123
Bob Kay: These knives are
incredibly high quality.
205
00:07:55,191 --> 00:07:58,560
The larger ones we
use are actually
206
00:07:58,628 --> 00:08:00,028
competition quality knives.
207
00:08:00,062 --> 00:08:02,931
It's a very effective,
concealable type
208
00:08:03,032 --> 00:08:05,000
of weapon for self defense.
209
00:08:05,067 --> 00:08:06,801
Very convenient.
210
00:08:06,869 --> 00:08:08,547
You have to have a lot
of respect for a knife
211
00:08:08,571 --> 00:08:10,038
or a bladed weapon and
212
00:08:10,106 --> 00:08:11,706
she's learning the respect.
213
00:08:11,774 --> 00:08:13,008
Exisay: Was more infenceby
214
00:08:13,075 --> 00:08:14,609
video games than anything else,
215
00:08:14,644 --> 00:08:17,112
because any
video game character,
216
00:08:17,180 --> 00:08:19,481
you tell it to throw a
knife and it looks easy,
217
00:08:19,549 --> 00:08:20,615
it looks effortless.
218
00:08:20,716 --> 00:08:22,584
So I thought, why not?
219
00:08:22,652 --> 00:08:24,486
Why not try throwing knives?
220
00:08:24,554 --> 00:08:26,755
But when you actually
try to throw a knife,
221
00:08:26,822 --> 00:08:28,100
it's a lot more of
a challenge than
222
00:08:28,124 --> 00:08:30,892
it actually looks.
223
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,628
Bob Kay: Perfect.
224
00:08:33,696 --> 00:08:35,964
Pretty good.
225
00:08:36,699 --> 00:08:38,277
Narrator: Throwing
knives would help Alexis
226
00:08:38,301 --> 00:08:40,669
in a short-range fight,
but she also wants an
227
00:08:40,736 --> 00:08:43,071
option to protect
herself from attackers
228
00:08:43,139 --> 00:08:45,640
at even greater distances.
229
00:08:45,708 --> 00:08:48,109
So Bob's hired her
a personal firearm
230
00:08:48,144 --> 00:08:53,114
instructor, spent $4,000
on a high-end rifle,
231
00:08:53,182 --> 00:08:56,051
built a private shooting
range on his own property
232
00:08:56,118 --> 00:09:00,055
and added $300 of zombie
targets that bleed
233
00:09:00,122 --> 00:09:02,290
or explode to get her
accustomed to aiming
234
00:09:02,358 --> 00:09:03,959
at a human figure.
235
00:09:04,026 --> 00:09:06,394
Nate: You're too
close to the scope.
236
00:09:06,462 --> 00:09:10,265
Lean forward.
237
00:09:10,333 --> 00:09:11,266
Can you see your target?
238
00:09:11,334 --> 00:09:12,500
Alexis Kay: Yeah.
239
00:09:12,568 --> 00:09:13,635
Nate: Okay, ready to fire?
240
00:09:13,703 --> 00:09:15,003
Fire!
241
00:09:15,071 --> 00:09:16,204
Good job!
242
00:09:16,272 --> 00:09:19,608
Bob: First shot, that
gun I can't do that.
243
00:09:19,675 --> 00:09:22,744
One shot, right through
the top of the chest.
244
00:09:22,812 --> 00:09:24,145
Joel: It's where you want it.
245
00:09:24,213 --> 00:09:25,547
Bob: That was incredible.
246
00:09:25,615 --> 00:09:27,849
Nate: That's a combat
accurate hit right there.
247
00:09:27,917 --> 00:09:31,019
You can't ask any more
than that from this far.
248
00:09:31,087 --> 00:09:32,847
Bob Kay: You guys did a
great job, thank you.
249
00:09:32,888 --> 00:09:34,283
Alexis Kay: Definitely
not as easy as it
250
00:09:34,307 --> 00:09:37,075
looks in video games.
251
00:09:40,580 --> 00:09:42,147
Narrator: Including
Alexis' defensive
252
00:09:42,214 --> 00:09:45,317
training, Bob's
already spent $150,000
253
00:09:45,384 --> 00:09:47,719
on prepping in the past year.
254
00:09:47,787 --> 00:09:49,955
But now he wants to ensure
his family has a clear
255
00:09:50,022 --> 00:09:52,591
path to safety
if California is ever
256
00:09:52,658 --> 00:09:55,327
leveled by a massive earthquake.
257
00:09:55,394 --> 00:09:57,762
So he's about to
spend almost half a
258
00:09:57,830 --> 00:10:01,166
million dollars on
one final prep.
259
00:10:04,353 --> 00:10:05,564
Bob Kay: A year ago I'm watching
260
00:10:05,588 --> 00:10:07,656
doomsday preppers
and I come to the
261
00:10:07,723 --> 00:10:11,059
realization: I'm a prepper.
262
00:10:11,127 --> 00:10:13,361
Narrator: In Bob Kay's
first year as a prepper,
263
00:10:13,429 --> 00:10:14,989
he spent $150,000
preparing his Southern
264
00:10:16,465 --> 00:10:20,902
California estate for a
catastrophic earthquake.
265
00:10:20,970 --> 00:10:23,071
He just spent another $40,000
266
00:10:23,139 --> 00:10:24,472
on freeze-dried food.
267
00:10:24,573 --> 00:10:25,684
Alexis Kay: It's
like freeze-drie
268
00:10:25,708 --> 00:10:27,242
life insurance.
269
00:10:27,310 --> 00:10:28,810
Narrator: And the
constant spending is
270
00:10:28,878 --> 00:10:30,122
threatening to
divide the family.
271
00:10:30,146 --> 00:10:32,247
Jade k: It's so much money.
272
00:10:32,315 --> 00:10:35,583
I think preppings
little bit crazy.
273
00:10:35,651 --> 00:10:37,152
I still think it's kind
274
00:10:37,219 --> 00:10:40,255
of wasting, wasting money.
275
00:10:40,323 --> 00:10:42,090
Narrator: Bob lives only
an hour away from a
276
00:10:42,158 --> 00:10:44,125
nuclear plant he fears
wouldn't withstand
277
00:10:44,193 --> 00:10:47,495
a quake greater than 7.0.
278
00:10:47,563 --> 00:10:50,265
For most, quickly
escaping nuclear fallout
279
00:10:50,333 --> 00:10:52,267
would be an
insurmountable obstacle,
280
00:10:52,335 --> 00:10:55,904
but Bob can afford to
spend his way to safety.
281
00:10:55,971 --> 00:10:58,039
Bob Kay: If things
go really badly,
282
00:10:58,107 --> 00:10:59,941
nobody's going to
be getting out of
283
00:11:00,009 --> 00:11:02,911
this area by a truck
or bus or a car.
284
00:11:02,978 --> 00:11:07,882
The way to go, got to
take it to a new level.
285
00:11:11,687 --> 00:11:13,355
Narrator: Today, Bob
and his daughter,
286
00:11:13,422 --> 00:11:16,291
Alex, are meeting
pilot Johan nurmi.
287
00:11:16,359 --> 00:11:19,494
Bob Kay: Let's do it.
288
00:11:22,298 --> 00:11:23,809
Want to talk to you
about some helicopters,
289
00:11:23,833 --> 00:11:24,733
need your services.
290
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:25,600
Johan nurmi: Yes sir.
291
00:11:25,668 --> 00:11:26,968
I recommend this one.
292
00:11:27,036 --> 00:11:28,036
It's a four seater.
293
00:11:28,070 --> 00:11:30,772
She can carry 800
pounds inside and
294
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,307
we can still have fuel.
295
00:11:32,375 --> 00:11:33,842
Bob Kay: Okay, and range?
296
00:11:33,909 --> 00:11:35,543
Johan nurmi: We
can fly for about two
297
00:11:35,611 --> 00:11:36,945
and a half hours.
298
00:11:37,012 --> 00:11:38,323
In California you
have an airport every
299
00:11:38,347 --> 00:11:40,014
30 miles approximately.
300
00:11:40,082 --> 00:11:41,349
Bob Kay: Ahhhh!
301
00:11:41,417 --> 00:11:43,161
Johan nurmi: So you
have no problem get fuel.
302
00:11:43,185 --> 00:11:45,105
Something happens; I'll
be there in five minutes.
303
00:11:45,154 --> 00:11:46,454
I'll rescue you.
304
00:11:46,522 --> 00:11:48,289
Land outside your
driveway and off we go.
305
00:11:48,357 --> 00:11:49,701
Bob Kay: This looks
like the way to go.
306
00:11:49,725 --> 00:11:53,628
Looks like it has plenty
of room, so how much?
307
00:11:55,498 --> 00:11:56,998
Jade Kay: You actually purchased
308
00:11:57,066 --> 00:11:58,366
a helicopter, or?
309
00:11:58,434 --> 00:12:02,771
Okay, how much, how much
does the helicopter cost?
310
00:12:02,838 --> 00:12:04,082
Bob Kay: About half
a million dollars.
311
00:12:04,106 --> 00:12:05,140
Jade Kay: What?
312
00:12:05,207 --> 00:12:07,041
Half a million dollars
for helicopter?
313
00:12:07,109 --> 00:12:08,543
Bob Kay: Well, you
got to let me tell
314
00:12:08,611 --> 00:12:09,711
you the rest of it though.
315
00:12:09,779 --> 00:12:10,889
We're going to do a test run.
316
00:12:10,913 --> 00:12:12,224
We're going to have a
helicopter come here.
317
00:12:12,248 --> 00:12:14,249
We can land it out
here, right out here.
318
00:12:14,316 --> 00:12:15,700
We should give it a try.
319
00:12:15,768 --> 00:12:17,379
Keeping in mind that
there are about a quarter
320
00:12:17,403 --> 00:12:19,304
of a million people
living in this area and
321
00:12:19,371 --> 00:12:21,840
bugging out isn't
necessarily the
322
00:12:21,907 --> 00:12:23,174
easiest thing to do.
323
00:12:23,242 --> 00:12:25,310
One highway in, one highway out.
324
00:12:25,377 --> 00:12:27,479
The advantages of
using some type of
325
00:12:27,546 --> 00:12:30,682
air transport helicopter,
allows one to takeoff
326
00:12:30,750 --> 00:12:32,684
and land in a very small area.
327
00:12:32,752 --> 00:12:34,119
It's a tremendous advantage.
328
00:12:34,186 --> 00:12:35,553
A little bit pricier way to go,
329
00:12:35,621 --> 00:12:38,690
but it does deliver
on the solution.
330
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,926
My wife does view many
of the activities
331
00:12:41,994 --> 00:12:46,765
that I engage in for
prepping with amusement.
332
00:12:46,832 --> 00:12:49,534
The truth of the matter
is she does understand
333
00:12:49,602 --> 00:12:51,269
the type of environment
we live in.
334
00:12:51,337 --> 00:12:53,138
We've experienced
sevel earthquakes.
335
00:12:53,205 --> 00:12:55,807
So she does
appreciate truly that
336
00:12:55,875 --> 00:12:57,675
being prepared is important.
337
00:12:57,710 --> 00:13:00,578
To me, major earthquake,
if it was a matter of
338
00:13:00,646 --> 00:13:02,747
money to save my
family's lives and
339
00:13:02,815 --> 00:13:04,449
take care of their well being,
340
00:13:04,517 --> 00:13:08,753
show me where I
stick the debit card.
341
00:13:13,058 --> 00:13:14,259
Narrator: Bob, the experts,
342
00:13:14,326 --> 00:13:16,728
practical preppers, have
assessed your preps.
343
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:18,863
Your gardens, orchard
and stored food will
344
00:13:18,931 --> 00:13:21,432
be a great asset if it
comes to feeding your
345
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:23,468
family over an extended
period of time.
346
00:13:23,536 --> 00:13:26,371
However, currently you
lack sources of protein.
347
00:13:26,438 --> 00:13:27,949
The experts recommend
you start raising
348
00:13:27,973 --> 00:13:29,941
chickens and rabbits.
349
00:13:30,009 --> 00:13:32,277
Bob Kay: I think we need
to find an alternative
350
00:13:32,344 --> 00:13:35,213
and I think the stores
that we can purchase
351
00:13:35,281 --> 00:13:36,561
that are freeze
dried would be an
352
00:13:36,615 --> 00:13:38,516
excellent alternative.
353
00:13:38,584 --> 00:13:40,285
Narrator: Your
35, 000-gallon pool
354
00:13:40,352 --> 00:13:42,253
is a good start
for water supply,
355
00:13:42,321 --> 00:13:44,088
but relying on the pool
alone will leave you
356
00:13:44,156 --> 00:13:46,424
without any potable
water at all should
357
00:13:46,492 --> 00:13:49,060
your desalination
equipment ever fail.
358
00:13:49,128 --> 00:13:50,806
Bob Kay: We had thought
about drilling a well.
359
00:13:50,830 --> 00:13:52,197
We tried to get permits;
360
00:13:52,264 --> 00:13:53,965
not allowed because
the water rights
361
00:13:54,033 --> 00:13:57,068
are not ours.
362
00:13:57,803 --> 00:13:59,648
Narrator: To determine how
long you could initially
363
00:13:59,672 --> 00:14:02,473
survive a catastrophe,
practical preppers has
364
00:14:02,541 --> 00:14:05,210
scored your preps in
five categories of
365
00:14:05,277 --> 00:14:07,545
20 points each, for
a total possible
366
00:14:07,613 --> 00:14:09,647
score of 100.
367
00:14:09,715 --> 00:14:12,483
Food: 11 out of 20 points.
368
00:14:12,551 --> 00:14:15,153
Water: 17 out of 20 points.
369
00:14:15,221 --> 00:14:17,989
Shelter: 9 out of 20 points.
370
00:14:18,057 --> 00:14:21,526
Security: 13 out of 20 points.
371
00:14:21,594 --> 00:14:23,595
Your knowledge of
vitamins and nutrition
372
00:14:23,662 --> 00:14:26,464
gives you 11 x-factor points.
373
00:14:26,532 --> 00:14:29,667
Overall your score
is 61 out of 100.
374
00:14:30,536 --> 00:14:33,571
You have nine months
initial survival time.
375
00:14:33,639 --> 00:14:35,250
Bob Kay: I agree with
most of it except its
376
00:14:35,274 --> 00:14:36,507
left out a critical factor:
377
00:14:36,575 --> 00:14:38,476
Our ability to have
business activities
378
00:14:38,544 --> 00:14:41,212
and barter and
increase our ability
379
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,514
to live a longer period of time.
380
00:14:45,501 --> 00:14:47,078
Narrator: Experts rate
the likelihood of a
381
00:14:47,102 --> 00:14:50,138
magnitude 6.7 earthquake
or stronger striking on
382
00:14:50,205 --> 00:14:52,307
the fault under
temecula, California
383
00:14:52,374 --> 00:14:56,911
within the next 30 years 11%.
384
00:15:00,849 --> 00:15:02,750
Josh wander is a
deeply religious
385
00:15:02,818 --> 00:15:05,119
prepper living in Pittsburgh.
386
00:15:05,187 --> 00:15:07,322
He fears the end is coming,
387
00:15:07,389 --> 00:15:08,923
but can he prep to
keep his family
388
00:15:08,991 --> 00:15:13,194
alive without disobeying
his god's commands?
389
00:15:25,874 --> 00:15:27,942
Narrator: Josh wander
is a husband and father
390
00:15:28,010 --> 00:15:30,912
of six who moved from
Jerusalem, Israel,
391
00:15:30,980 --> 00:15:32,280
to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
392
00:15:32,348 --> 00:15:33,381
about 10 years ago.
393
00:15:33,449 --> 00:15:34,459
Josh wander: You all buckled up?
394
00:15:34,483 --> 00:15:35,650
You ready?
395
00:15:35,718 --> 00:15:37,185
Here we go.
396
00:15:37,252 --> 00:15:39,487
Narrator: He's devoted to
his orthodox Jewish faith,
397
00:15:39,555 --> 00:15:41,889
his family and
community politics.
398
00:15:41,957 --> 00:15:43,925
Josh wander: A
normal day in my life
399
00:15:43,993 --> 00:15:46,461
starts off around
6:30 in the morning
400
00:15:46,528 --> 00:15:48,997
where I go to pray in synagogue.
401
00:15:49,064 --> 00:15:51,466
After that, I start
my campaigning.
402
00:15:51,533 --> 00:15:54,035
Thanks, thank you.
403
00:15:54,103 --> 00:15:56,304
Narrator: Each day, Josh
works on his campaign
404
00:15:56,405 --> 00:15:58,806
for city council,
cares for his children
405
00:15:58,874 --> 00:16:02,076
and fulfills his
prayer obligations.
406
00:16:02,177 --> 00:16:04,212
But every moment
not devoted to god,
407
00:16:04,279 --> 00:16:08,716
his kids, and politics,
he spends prepping.
408
00:16:09,652 --> 00:16:11,035
Josh wander: I'm preparing for a
409
00:16:11,070 --> 00:16:13,338
series of catastrophic
terrorist attacks,
410
00:16:13,405 --> 00:16:14,739
which will fundamentally change
411
00:16:14,807 --> 00:16:17,575
our lives as we know it.
412
00:16:25,317 --> 00:16:27,685
Terrorist attacks are
just a way of life
413
00:16:27,753 --> 00:16:30,321
and something that's
necessary to prepare for.
414
00:16:30,389 --> 00:16:33,725
It wouldn't be difficult
for terrorists to blow
415
00:16:33,792 --> 00:16:36,661
themselves up in suicide
bombs in major cities,
416
00:16:36,729 --> 00:16:39,897
buses, in malls throughout
the United States.
417
00:16:39,965 --> 00:16:41,733
There would be
continuous attacks on
418
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,202
these locations over
and over again.
419
00:16:44,269 --> 00:16:47,505
Police, firemen, and
the paramedics would
420
00:16:47,573 --> 00:16:48,706
come to respond.
421
00:16:48,774 --> 00:16:51,676
There would be additional
attacks as soon as the
422
00:16:51,744 --> 00:16:54,312
first responders
would come that would
423
00:16:54,380 --> 00:16:55,913
kill and maim those people.
424
00:16:55,981 --> 00:16:57,782
This is something
that was perfected in
425
00:16:57,850 --> 00:16:59,384
the middle east.
426
00:16:59,451 --> 00:17:02,520
People would be afraid to
use mass transportation;
427
00:17:02,588 --> 00:17:05,423
afraid to go to stores
for fear that there
428
00:17:05,491 --> 00:17:07,191
would be continuous attacks.
429
00:17:07,259 --> 00:17:09,827
People would be stuck
in their homes in fear
430
00:17:09,895 --> 00:17:13,898
without the ability to
bring in new resources.
431
00:17:13,966 --> 00:17:16,067
Once that happens
there's going to be
432
00:17:16,135 --> 00:17:18,069
a lot of people
dying very quickly.
433
00:17:18,137 --> 00:17:19,771
Narrator: Josh is
running for a seat
434
00:17:19,838 --> 00:17:21,506
on Pittsburgh's city council.
435
00:17:21,573 --> 00:17:23,508
But, unlike his
opponent, the focus of
436
00:17:23,575 --> 00:17:25,176
his platform is
not improving the
437
00:17:25,244 --> 00:17:27,512
city's infrastructure.
438
00:17:27,579 --> 00:17:29,447
Josh believes terrorist attacks
439
00:17:29,515 --> 00:17:31,015
could happen at any moment,
440
00:17:31,083 --> 00:17:33,284
so he wants the entire
city of Pittsburgh
441
00:17:33,352 --> 00:17:35,403
to begin prepping.
442
00:17:35,487 --> 00:17:36,888
Josh wander: As a politician,
443
00:17:36,955 --> 00:17:38,322
I'm looking at the
welfare of the
444
00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:39,424
greater community.
445
00:17:39,491 --> 00:17:41,692
I educate people on the
446
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,428
importance of preparedness.
447
00:17:43,495 --> 00:17:45,135
What's motivating me
to run for Pittsburgh
448
00:17:45,197 --> 00:17:47,732
city council is that
fact that there is
449
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,267
no preparedness at all.
450
00:17:49,334 --> 00:17:50,468
People are not listening.
451
00:17:50,536 --> 00:17:52,213
What we need is somebody
who's going to stand up
452
00:17:52,237 --> 00:17:54,172
and legislate and
explain that there has
453
00:17:54,239 --> 00:17:56,007
to be required education.
454
00:17:56,075 --> 00:17:57,585
David Raphael: You
see these people now
455
00:17:57,609 --> 00:17:59,243
worried about you know,
building bunkers.
456
00:17:59,311 --> 00:18:00,678
Everyone's building bunkers now.
457
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:02,223
And that's cool and
if I had the money,
458
00:18:02,247 --> 00:18:03,448
I'd build a bunker.
459
00:18:03,515 --> 00:18:04,682
Like that, that's great.
460
00:18:04,750 --> 00:18:06,350
I think it would be
nice to have someone
461
00:18:06,418 --> 00:18:10,088
involved in government
that wants to be prepared.
462
00:18:10,155 --> 00:18:12,590
I would vote for Josh
wander unconditionally.
463
00:18:12,658 --> 00:18:14,175
Narrator: Josh
believes politicians
464
00:18:14,243 --> 00:18:15,943
like himself will
be targeted when
465
00:18:16,011 --> 00:18:18,146
terrorists attack and
he fears one of his
466
00:18:18,213 --> 00:18:20,915
own political rallys
could soon be the scene of
467
00:18:20,983 --> 00:18:23,618
a massacre aimed
at silencing him.
468
00:18:23,685 --> 00:18:25,620
In the last year, the
number of government
469
00:18:25,687 --> 00:18:27,522
officials killed in
terrorist attacks
470
00:18:27,589 --> 00:18:30,558
worldwide increased
more than 13 percent.
471
00:18:30,626 --> 00:18:32,660
So today, he's putting
his staff through
472
00:18:32,728 --> 00:18:34,629
their first mass casualty drill.
473
00:18:34,663 --> 00:18:36,164
Josh wander: Let's
get bloodied up.
474
00:18:36,231 --> 00:18:38,132
It's a misnomer that people
475
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:39,700
panic during attacks.
476
00:18:39,801 --> 00:18:41,335
Instead you find
that people just
477
00:18:41,403 --> 00:18:43,571
shut down and they don't move.
478
00:18:43,639 --> 00:18:45,173
Narrator: In a life-threatening
479
00:18:45,207 --> 00:18:47,108
situation, instead
of fight, or flight
480
00:18:47,176 --> 00:18:48,976
the human body will
sometimes freeze,
481
00:18:49,044 --> 00:18:51,746
or play opossum, to avoid
becoming a target.
482
00:18:51,814 --> 00:18:53,915
To help him fight
that urge in a real
483
00:18:53,982 --> 00:18:56,517
catastrophe, Josh is
trying to get them used
484
00:18:56,585 --> 00:18:59,086
acting in crisis
by making this scene
485
00:18:59,154 --> 00:19:01,923
of carnage as
realistic as possible.
486
00:19:01,990 --> 00:19:04,025
Josh wander: Doing
something repetitively
487
00:19:04,059 --> 00:19:06,794
ingrains it into you,
so if something
488
00:19:06,862 --> 00:19:09,063
actually happens you
won't break down.
489
00:19:09,131 --> 00:19:11,265
Narrator: Josh was trained
as an ems responder
490
00:19:11,333 --> 00:19:13,334
in Jerusalem and
witnessed the impact
491
00:19:13,402 --> 00:19:15,820
of suicide bombings first hand.
492
00:19:15,888 --> 00:19:17,672
Terrorist attacks
sometimes happen in
493
00:19:17,739 --> 00:19:19,941
quick succession,
with secondary bombs
494
00:19:20,008 --> 00:19:22,476
exploding once emergency
responders arrive,
495
00:19:22,544 --> 00:19:24,846
to prevent people
from receiving care.
496
00:19:24,913 --> 00:19:27,381
So Josh is training
his team to secure
497
00:19:27,449 --> 00:19:29,917
the perimeter before
attending to any victims.
498
00:19:29,985 --> 00:19:31,329
Josh wander: I want
all three of you to
499
00:19:31,353 --> 00:19:32,564
make a perimeter,
then we're going to go and
500
00:19:32,588 --> 00:19:33,287
treat the wounded.
501
00:19:33,355 --> 00:19:36,290
Come on, quickly, quickly!
502
00:19:36,592 --> 00:19:37,525
Clear over here.
503
00:19:37,593 --> 00:19:39,527
Josh wander: Okay,
it seems safe.
504
00:19:39,595 --> 00:19:40,962
Now let's start treating them.
505
00:19:41,029 --> 00:19:45,132
Joe: He's breathing,
pulse is rapid.
506
00:19:45,234 --> 00:19:46,834
Alrigh lets red tag him
507
00:19:46,902 --> 00:19:48,246
narrator: Each victim
is assessed and
508
00:19:48,270 --> 00:19:50,037
assigned color
coded tag based on
509
00:19:50,105 --> 00:19:51,906
the severity of his injuries.
510
00:19:51,974 --> 00:19:54,375
Green for minor
injuries that can wait,
511
00:19:54,443 --> 00:19:56,577
yellow for urgent but stable,
512
00:19:56,645 --> 00:19:57,745
red for critical.
513
00:19:57,813 --> 00:19:58,980
Joe: Do we have a pulse?
514
00:19:59,047 --> 00:19:59,947
Student: No pulse.
515
00:20:00,015 --> 00:20:01,215
Narrator: And black.
516
00:20:01,283 --> 00:20:02,683
Joe: No pulse, no breathing.
517
00:20:02,751 --> 00:20:04,485
He's a black tag, he's gone.
518
00:20:04,553 --> 00:20:06,153
Let's get help to
the other people.
519
00:20:06,188 --> 00:20:07,488
Josh wander: We put an enormous
520
00:20:07,556 --> 00:20:08,923
amount of sanctity on life.
521
00:20:08,991 --> 00:20:13,594
We need to just save as
many lives as possible.
522
00:20:13,795 --> 00:20:15,296
This is exactly
why I'm a prepper.
523
00:20:15,364 --> 00:20:17,732
Because I think
that the survival
524
00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:19,467
of my family,
friends, supporters,
525
00:20:19,534 --> 00:20:23,638
is, is my ultimate
responsibility.
526
00:20:27,676 --> 00:20:29,744
Narrator: Josh's
orthodox faith impacts
527
00:20:29,811 --> 00:20:32,580
every aspect of his prepping.
528
00:20:32,648 --> 00:20:34,999
But can he prepare his
family for the life of
529
00:20:35,067 --> 00:20:37,868
terrorist attacks
he fears without
530
00:20:37,936 --> 00:20:40,538
having to disobey god?
531
00:20:44,126 --> 00:20:46,928
Narrator: Josh wander is
a Pittsburgh politician
532
00:20:46,995 --> 00:20:49,130
he fears a series of
terrorist attacks will
533
00:20:49,197 --> 00:20:51,699
soon tear across
the United States.
534
00:20:51,767 --> 00:20:53,501
He believes the
unpredictability and
535
00:20:53,568 --> 00:20:55,903
frequency of the attacks
will force people to
536
00:20:55,971 --> 00:20:58,272
remain in their homes
and survive off only
537
00:20:58,340 --> 00:20:59,674
what they have on hand
538
00:20:59,741 --> 00:21:01,542
so Josh is preparing to bug in
539
00:21:01,610 --> 00:21:02,810
for at least three months.
540
00:21:02,878 --> 00:21:05,713
Josh wander: Urban
centers would be targeted
541
00:21:05,781 --> 00:21:07,315
in any terrorist attack.
542
00:21:07,382 --> 00:21:09,617
It would make most
sense to basically
543
00:21:09,685 --> 00:21:11,852
stay put for a period of time.
544
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,754
Narrator: Josh has
been trying to build up a
545
00:21:13,822 --> 00:21:16,357
stockpile of provisions
for when doomsday comes.
546
00:21:16,425 --> 00:21:19,660
But as an orthodox Jew,
he faces a complication
547
00:21:19,728 --> 00:21:21,762
that most preppers don't
have to worry about.
548
00:21:21,830 --> 00:21:23,631
Josh wander: We
have to keep kosher.
549
00:21:23,699 --> 00:21:25,566
So our food preparations have to
550
00:21:25,634 --> 00:21:27,601
be all certified kosher.
551
00:21:27,703 --> 00:21:29,180
Narrator: Because of
the trouble he's had
552
00:21:29,204 --> 00:21:30,538
finding kosher food designed
553
00:21:30,605 --> 00:21:32,139
for long shelf life,
554
00:21:32,207 --> 00:21:34,875
it's taken Josh three
years to accumulate
555
00:21:34,943 --> 00:21:37,111
just a three month
supply of kosher
556
00:21:37,179 --> 00:21:39,447
preps that won't spoil.
557
00:21:39,514 --> 00:21:41,015
Josh wander: Matzah, I believe,
558
00:21:41,116 --> 00:21:44,018
is actually the
ultimate prepper food.
559
00:21:44,086 --> 00:21:45,820
Narrator: Unleavened
bread made only from
560
00:21:45,887 --> 00:21:48,022
flour and water,
matzah is a source of
561
00:21:48,090 --> 00:21:50,091
protein and
carbohydrates and has
562
00:21:50,158 --> 00:21:52,159
a two and half year shelf life.
563
00:21:52,227 --> 00:21:54,195
Josh wander: I've seen
these boxes be opened
564
00:21:54,262 --> 00:21:57,598
years after its expiration
and it's still fresh.
565
00:21:57,666 --> 00:22:00,167
Narrator: Josh also has
a dozen cases of kosher
566
00:22:00,235 --> 00:22:05,072
mre's, enough for 144
1,200-calorie meals,
567
00:22:05,140 --> 00:22:06,673
which have been cooked and
568
00:22:06,708 --> 00:22:08,242
packaged under
rabbinical supervision,
569
00:22:08,310 --> 00:22:11,178
and can last up to five years.
570
00:22:11,279 --> 00:22:13,814
Josh wander: Kosher
mre's are specifically
571
00:22:13,882 --> 00:22:17,918
made for ortdox Jews
who are in the military.
572
00:22:17,986 --> 00:22:20,321
They are U.S. military rations,
573
00:22:20,389 --> 00:22:23,424
and they are completely kosher.
574
00:22:23,492 --> 00:22:25,993
Narrator: Having served in
the Israeli defense forces,
575
00:22:26,061 --> 00:22:28,496
Josh has experience
surviving off mre's.
576
00:22:28,563 --> 00:22:30,164
But his children don't.
577
00:22:30,232 --> 00:22:32,133
So today, he's giving
them a taste of what
578
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,301
they'll be in for, if
multiple terrorist
579
00:22:34,369 --> 00:22:36,337
attacks confine
them to their home.
580
00:22:36,405 --> 00:22:38,806
Josh wander: You're going to
pour in just a drop, okay?
581
00:22:38,874 --> 00:22:40,474
Narrator: The heater
pouch is filled with
582
00:22:40,509 --> 00:22:42,176
iron and magnesium dust.
583
00:22:42,244 --> 00:22:44,245
When they come in
contact with water they
584
00:22:44,312 --> 00:22:46,514
begin rust and
the rapid oxidation
585
00:22:46,581 --> 00:22:48,182
generates heat
586
00:22:48,250 --> 00:22:49,583
Josh wander: Feel it, Sara?
587
00:22:49,651 --> 00:22:50,795
That's how the chemicals work.
588
00:22:50,819 --> 00:22:51,886
Feel how hot it is?
589
00:22:51,953 --> 00:22:53,254
Josh wander: Baruch atah adonai,
590
00:22:53,321 --> 00:22:56,857
elohenu melech ha'olam,
borei mi nay mazanos.
591
00:22:56,925 --> 00:22:59,093
Tamara: Ewww, it
looks like barf.
592
00:22:59,194 --> 00:23:01,629
Sara: It looks like barf.
593
00:23:01,696 --> 00:23:02,863
Josh wander: Not bad.
594
00:23:02,931 --> 00:23:04,175
Make a mazanos close
your eyes and eat it,
595
00:23:04,199 --> 00:23:05,099
come on.
596
00:23:05,167 --> 00:23:06,434
Tamara: No.
597
00:23:06,501 --> 00:23:07,301
Josh wanr: Comen.
598
00:23:07,369 --> 00:23:09,303
Tamara: No!
599
00:23:09,404 --> 00:23:12,239
Josh wander: Corn
and, and carrots
600
00:23:12,307 --> 00:23:13,507
no?
601
00:23:13,575 --> 00:23:15,219
That's just because your
sister told you not to,
602
00:23:15,243 --> 00:23:16,143
right?
603
00:23:16,211 --> 00:23:17,445
Cause you were about to do it.
604
00:23:17,546 --> 00:23:18,890
Narrator: Josh's
current store of kosher
605
00:23:18,914 --> 00:23:20,681
supplies should last 90 days.
606
00:23:20,749 --> 00:23:22,950
But he fears wave after
wave of terrorist
607
00:23:23,018 --> 00:23:25,152
attacks could keep
Pittsburgh under siege
608
00:23:25,220 --> 00:23:26,554
longer than three months.
609
00:23:26,621 --> 00:23:28,299
Josh wander: Whoever has a
bite of this can have a treat.
610
00:23:28,323 --> 00:23:29,623
Who's going to have it?
611
00:23:29,691 --> 00:23:31,092
Narrator: If that
were to happen,
612
00:23:31,159 --> 00:23:32,799
Josh believes he'd
eventually be forced to
613
00:23:32,861 --> 00:23:34,562
choose between
keeping kosher and
614
00:23:34,646 --> 00:23:36,113
staying alive.
615
00:23:36,181 --> 00:23:37,715
Josh wander: There
are 613 commandments
616
00:23:37,783 --> 00:23:39,150
in the torah.
617
00:23:39,217 --> 00:23:42,353
We are instructed to
break any of those
618
00:23:42,421 --> 00:23:45,022
rules in order to save life.
619
00:23:45,090 --> 00:23:47,358
If necessary we could eat pork
620
00:23:47,426 --> 00:23:49,126
we could eat shellfish or
621
00:23:49,194 --> 00:23:51,228
any other non-kosher species for
622
00:23:51,296 --> 00:23:52,763
the preservation of life.
623
00:23:52,831 --> 00:23:54,865
Under normal circumstances is
624
00:23:54,933 --> 00:23:56,634
a rabbit kosher?
625
00:23:56,701 --> 00:23:58,068
Daughter: No.
626
00:23:58,136 --> 00:23:59,370
Josh wander: Right?
627
00:23:59,471 --> 00:24:00,704
Rabbits are not kosher
628
00:24:00,772 --> 00:24:02,106
in fact, it says in the Bible,
629
00:24:02,174 --> 00:24:03,751
it mentions rabbits as
one of the species
630
00:24:03,775 --> 00:24:05,409
which is not kosher.
631
00:24:05,477 --> 00:24:06,944
Narrator: Because
these rabbits are
632
00:24:07,012 --> 00:24:08,345
raised to be dinner,
633
00:24:08,413 --> 00:24:10,781
Josh won't allow his
children to give them names.
634
00:24:10,849 --> 00:24:12,149
Josh wander: They're not pets.
635
00:24:12,250 --> 00:24:14,718
We do play with them,
but they understand
636
00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:17,755
that they're eventually
going to be used for food.
637
00:24:17,823 --> 00:24:19,066
Tamara: I think it's disgusting.
638
00:24:19,090 --> 00:24:20,250
Josh wander: It's disgusting?
639
00:24:20,292 --> 00:24:21,659
But it's better
than dying right?
640
00:24:21,759 --> 00:24:22,827
Tamara: No.
641
00:24:22,894 --> 00:24:24,105
Josh wander: I don't
feel conflicted at all
642
00:24:24,129 --> 00:24:27,031
once we've finished all
of our kosher options
643
00:24:27,098 --> 00:24:29,667
it smoothly transitions
to whatever's out there and,
644
00:24:29,734 --> 00:24:31,469
that's necessary
to preserve life.
645
00:24:31,536 --> 00:24:33,281
Narrator: Keeping kosher
isn't the only Jewish
646
00:24:33,305 --> 00:24:35,239
tradition Josh may
have to break with in
647
00:24:35,307 --> 00:24:37,041
order to keep his family alive.
648
00:24:37,108 --> 00:24:38,893
If terrorism comes
to Pittsburgh,
649
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,328
Josh and his children
are willing to do
650
00:24:41,396 --> 00:24:43,497
whatever it takes to
protect themselves.
651
00:24:43,565 --> 00:24:46,167
Josh wander: Jewish law
is clear that we are
652
00:24:46,234 --> 00:24:49,069
obligated to defend
ourselves to the
653
00:24:49,137 --> 00:24:51,939
point of using
lethal force in order
654
00:24:52,007 --> 00:24:53,474
to preserve our lives.
655
00:24:53,575 --> 00:24:56,243
Narrator: Today, Josh
is taking Hannah and
656
00:24:56,311 --> 00:24:58,179
etan to their local
shooting range.
657
00:24:58,246 --> 00:25:00,381
As a certified nra instructor,
658
00:25:00,448 --> 00:25:02,650
Josh makes sure they
practice once a week,
659
00:25:02,717 --> 00:25:04,552
so that their shooting
skills are honed
660
00:25:04,619 --> 00:25:07,121
in case of an onslaught
of terrorist attacks.
661
00:25:07,189 --> 00:25:08,466
Josh wander: Now look
between these two
662
00:25:08,490 --> 00:25:09,557
and this and see the red.
663
00:25:09,624 --> 00:25:11,025
Whenever you're ready put the
664
00:25:11,059 --> 00:25:12,299
finger in and slowly pull once.
665
00:25:13,361 --> 00:25:14,405
Slowly, slowly, that
was way too fast.
666
00:25:14,429 --> 00:25:16,830
Continue to look through it.
667
00:25:16,865 --> 00:25:18,832
Relax, relax.
668
00:25:20,001 --> 00:25:23,070
Good, perfect.
669
00:25:23,138 --> 00:25:26,907
Deep breath, relax, lean
forward a little bit.
670
00:25:28,243 --> 00:25:30,277
Most children out there
know to pick up a phone
671
00:25:30,345 --> 00:25:32,846
and dial 911,
unfortunately very few
672
00:25:32,914 --> 00:25:35,082
know what to do when they
pick up the phone and
673
00:25:35,150 --> 00:25:38,719
there's no dial tone
on the other end.
674
00:25:40,855 --> 00:25:42,890
Narrator: As much as
Josh loves Pittsburgh,
675
00:25:42,958 --> 00:25:44,792
he believes it's possible that,
676
00:25:44,859 --> 00:25:46,660
in the wake of
terrorist attacks and
677
00:25:46,728 --> 00:25:48,529
subsequent looting,
their home could
678
00:25:48,597 --> 00:25:50,231
no longer be a safe haven.
679
00:25:50,332 --> 00:25:54,235
So if the terrorists
gain the upper hand, Josh has a plan
680
00:25:54,302 --> 00:25:55,582
Josh wander: We
would have to get
681
00:25:55,670 --> 00:25:58,038
out from this urban death trap.
682
00:25:58,106 --> 00:25:59,723
We would definitely
be bugging out
683
00:25:59,791 --> 00:26:01,959
to a remote location.
684
00:26:02,027 --> 00:26:03,571
If they're woken up in
the middle of the night,
685
00:26:03,595 --> 00:26:05,296
they know to bug out.
686
00:26:05,363 --> 00:26:07,965
It's something that we
constantly work on.
687
00:26:08,033 --> 00:26:09,133
We're bugging out!
688
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,068
Narrator: Josh's
15-passenger Van
689
00:26:11,136 --> 00:26:12,603
is large enough to
fit his family
690
00:26:12,671 --> 00:26:15,973
of eight and some supplies.
691
00:26:16,174 --> 00:26:18,409
His plan is to camp
in a wooded area,
692
00:26:18,476 --> 00:26:20,544
where he hopes he can
remain camouflaged
693
00:26:20,612 --> 00:26:22,313
until he can determine
his family's safest
694
00:26:22,347 --> 00:26:26,083
route out of the city
695
00:26:26,484 --> 00:26:29,219
Josh wander: We're
headed into the forest
696
00:26:29,287 --> 00:26:33,390
in order to reassess
the situation.
697
00:26:33,458 --> 00:26:35,626
The relationship
between judaism and
698
00:26:35,694 --> 00:26:37,795
prepping is very strong.
699
00:26:37,862 --> 00:26:40,364
Jewish communities
throughout the millennia
700
00:26:40,432 --> 00:26:42,700
have been required to bug out.
701
00:26:42,767 --> 00:26:45,436
The exodus was a
form of a bug out.
702
00:26:45,503 --> 00:26:47,805
They were forced to very
quickly pickup their
703
00:26:47,872 --> 00:26:50,207
things and marched out of
Egypt to the holy land.
704
00:26:50,275 --> 00:26:52,042
Moses did what was
necessary for himself
705
00:26:52,110 --> 00:26:54,612
and his nation in
order to survive.
706
00:26:54,679 --> 00:26:57,514
Just like any other time
in world history the ones
707
00:26:57,582 --> 00:27:02,419
that are going to survive are
those that are prepared.
708
00:27:05,657 --> 00:27:08,392
The ultimate prepper food.
709
00:27:11,529 --> 00:27:12,730
Narrator: Josh, the experts,
710
00:27:12,797 --> 00:27:15,332
practical preppers have
reviewed your preps.
711
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,168
Your rainwater catchment
barrels are a good idea;
712
00:27:18,236 --> 00:27:19,470
however, you should consider
713
00:27:19,537 --> 00:27:21,205
storing more water.
714
00:27:21,272 --> 00:27:24,775
250 gallons is not enough
for a family of eight.
715
00:27:24,843 --> 00:27:26,276
Josh wander: 250
gallons is just the
716
00:27:26,344 --> 00:27:27,745
beginning of our preps.
717
00:27:27,812 --> 00:27:30,748
I think we have plenty
of water to go around.
718
00:27:30,815 --> 00:27:32,093
Narrator: We suggest
that you include
719
00:27:32,117 --> 00:27:33,417
others in your plans.
720
00:27:33,485 --> 00:27:34,818
In an urban environment,
721
00:27:34,886 --> 00:27:37,287
you will find your greatest
strength in numbers.
722
00:27:37,322 --> 00:27:38,666
Josh wander: There's a
lot at we've learned
723
00:27:38,690 --> 00:27:40,290
through our military experience.
724
00:27:40,358 --> 00:27:42,092
One of the things
that we've learned is
725
00:27:42,127 --> 00:27:43,694
the fact that in
order to improve you
726
00:27:43,762 --> 00:27:45,796
have to hear the
negative as well.
727
00:27:45,864 --> 00:27:47,864
Narrator: To determine how
long you could initially
728
00:27:47,899 --> 00:27:50,167
survive a catastrophe,
practical preppers has
729
00:27:50,235 --> 00:27:52,770
scored your preps in
five categories of
730
00:27:52,837 --> 00:27:57,174
20 points each, for a total
possible score of 100.
731
00:27:58,076 --> 00:28:00,144
You need a more
complete food plan:
732
00:28:00,211 --> 00:28:02,046
11 out of 20 points.
733
00:28:02,113 --> 00:28:05,015
Water: 14 out of 20 points.
734
00:28:05,083 --> 00:28:08,018
Shelter: 12 out of 20 points.
735
00:28:08,086 --> 00:28:10,554
Security: Forming a
prepping group would give
736
00:28:10,622 --> 00:28:12,289
you a more complete skill base:
737
00:28:12,357 --> 00:28:14,658
17 out of 20 points.
738
00:28:14,726 --> 00:28:16,527
For attempting to inform
your community about
739
00:28:16,594 --> 00:28:19,029
prepping through your
political campaign,
740
00:28:19,097 --> 00:28:22,066
you receive 16 x-factor points.
741
00:28:22,133 --> 00:28:25,235
Overall, your score
is 70 out of 100.
742
00:28:25,570 --> 00:28:28,472
You have 12 months
initial survival time.
743
00:28:28,540 --> 00:28:31,408
Josh wander: Well, a 70 is
generally a passing grade,
744
00:28:31,476 --> 00:28:33,077
but I'm not satisfied with it.
745
00:28:33,144 --> 00:28:36,080
I would say that it's
necessary to do better
746
00:28:36,147 --> 00:28:38,649
and we're always
looking at ways that
747
00:28:38,717 --> 00:28:40,617
we can better ourselves.
748
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,621
Since national
geographic was here,
749
00:28:44,689 --> 00:28:47,691
things have been getting a
lot worse in this country.
750
00:28:47,759 --> 00:28:50,227
We've decided that if necessary,
751
00:28:50,295 --> 00:28:52,629
myself and my family are
going to move back to
752
00:28:52,697 --> 00:28:56,200
Israel, where Jews are
protected and safe.
753
00:28:58,269 --> 00:29:00,070
Narrator: Despite
more than 10,000
754
00:29:00,138 --> 00:29:03,373
terrorist attacks and
12,000 deaths in 2011,
755
00:29:03,441 --> 00:29:05,609
more than 3/4 of those
attacks occurred
756
00:29:05,677 --> 00:29:07,978
in the near east and south Asia.
757
00:29:08,046 --> 00:29:10,280
Overall, he total number
of terrorist attacks
758
00:29:10,348 --> 00:29:15,152
worldwide dropped almost
12% to a five-year low.
759
00:29:17,355 --> 00:29:19,523
Ryan croft is willing
to eat anything,
760
00:29:19,557 --> 00:29:21,325
if it means keeping
his family alive.
761
00:29:21,425 --> 00:29:22,626
Ryan croft: And he's dinner.
762
00:29:22,694 --> 00:29:23,961
All right, guys.
763
00:29:24,028 --> 00:29:25,506
Narrator: But when it
comes to their safety,
764
00:29:25,530 --> 00:29:27,731
only the best will do.
765
00:29:27,799 --> 00:29:29,166
So he's attempting to build the
766
00:29:29,234 --> 00:29:31,535
perfect prepper
weapon system with
767
00:29:31,603 --> 00:29:33,470
his own two hands.
768
00:29:33,538 --> 00:29:35,539
Ryan croft: Frontal!
769
00:29:48,403 --> 00:29:50,471
Narrator: Ryan croft is
a former airmen in the
770
00:29:50,538 --> 00:29:54,374
us air force who now works
as a weapons manufacturer
771
00:29:54,442 --> 00:29:56,810
in ashville, north Carolina.
772
00:29:56,878 --> 00:29:58,745
With five teenage boys at home,
773
00:29:58,813 --> 00:30:00,547
keeping enough food
in the house is a
774
00:30:00,615 --> 00:30:04,418
constant battle for Ryan
and his wife, Rebecca.
775
00:30:04,486 --> 00:30:06,787
But it's even harder when
they're also trying to
776
00:30:06,855 --> 00:30:10,257
stockpile provisions for
the end of the world.
777
00:30:12,260 --> 00:30:13,861
Ryan croft: We're
preparing to stand our
778
00:30:13,928 --> 00:30:15,896
ground during a worldwide
financial collapse.
779
00:30:15,964 --> 00:30:17,598
Frontal!
780
00:30:17,665 --> 00:30:20,684
Alex: Covering!
781
00:30:20,752 --> 00:30:22,029
Ryan croft: Our
country's not okay,
782
00:30:22,053 --> 00:30:24,888
our world is not okay
and it's not getting better.
783
00:30:24,956 --> 00:30:26,323
There aren't enough resources.
784
00:30:26,391 --> 00:30:27,391
Can fema arrive?
785
00:30:27,458 --> 00:30:28,525
Uh-huh.
786
00:30:28,593 --> 00:30:30,594
Can fema arrive in a
thousand cities at once?
787
00:30:30,662 --> 00:30:31,962
Nuh-uh.
788
00:30:32,030 --> 00:30:33,107
So who are they
going to show up for?
789
00:30:33,131 --> 00:30:34,998
You, me?
790
00:30:35,066 --> 00:30:39,036
That's where the
prepper steps in.
791
00:30:39,237 --> 00:30:41,004
I'm not going to sit and
wait for someone else
792
00:30:41,072 --> 00:30:44,074
to come up with
solutions when so often
793
00:30:44,142 --> 00:30:45,709
I've been involved
with government.
794
00:30:45,777 --> 00:30:48,962
Their solutions suck.
795
00:30:54,936 --> 00:30:56,470
Narrator: Ryan fears
the economy will
796
00:30:56,538 --> 00:30:58,906
soon collapse, and
that when it does,
797
00:30:58,940 --> 00:31:02,442
it'll take society
along with it.
798
00:31:02,510 --> 00:31:03,854
Ryan croft: The
value of your dollar
799
00:31:03,878 --> 00:31:06,146
is completely artificial.
800
00:31:06,214 --> 00:31:08,315
Our financial collapse
has already started.
801
00:31:08,349 --> 00:31:11,485
We're just in the
gentle glide of
802
00:31:11,553 --> 00:31:12,953
the collapse right now.
803
00:31:13,021 --> 00:31:14,588
How close are we?
804
00:31:14,656 --> 00:31:16,890
The only reason why it
keeps going forward
805
00:31:16,958 --> 00:31:19,192
is because of
consumer confidence.
806
00:31:19,277 --> 00:31:21,645
You knock consumer
confidence out of the way;
807
00:31:21,713 --> 00:31:24,081
you've got chaos
in different and
808
00:31:24,148 --> 00:31:26,450
varying degrees
around the world.
809
00:31:26,517 --> 00:31:28,051
Narrator: Experts
recommend preppers in
810
00:31:28,119 --> 00:31:31,405
heavily populated areas
have bug-out locations
811
00:31:31,472 --> 00:31:34,074
at least two hours
outside of city centers,
812
00:31:34,142 --> 00:31:36,610
to which they can
escape in a crisis.
813
00:31:36,678 --> 00:31:38,345
But if the economy
does collapse,
814
00:31:38,413 --> 00:31:40,747
as Ryan fears, he has no plans
815
00:31:40,815 --> 00:31:44,117
to cut and run.
816
00:31:44,185 --> 00:31:45,296
Ryan croft: We
love our community.
817
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,720
We are heavily invested.
818
00:31:46,788 --> 00:31:48,355
As preppers, we are
not going anywhere.
819
00:31:48,423 --> 00:31:49,556
This is our town.
820
00:31:49,624 --> 00:31:51,892
This is where we live and
we love these people.
821
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:53,093
Whatever they're missing,
822
00:31:53,161 --> 00:31:55,128
if I can fill in
the pieces, I will.
823
00:31:55,196 --> 00:31:57,531
Narrator: Currently only
1% of the food consumed
824
00:31:57,599 --> 00:32:00,601
in western north Carolina
is grown locally.
825
00:32:00,668 --> 00:32:02,536
But Ryan's not
stockpiling canned or
826
00:32:02,604 --> 00:32:04,871
dried food for his community.
827
00:32:04,939 --> 00:32:07,908
Instead, he's planning
on growing an algae
828
00:32:07,976 --> 00:32:10,911
that's one of the simplest
life forms on earth.
829
00:32:10,979 --> 00:32:12,279
Ryan croft: I'm very excited
830
00:32:12,347 --> 00:32:14,214
about culturing spirulina.
831
00:32:14,282 --> 00:32:19,853
Spirulina alone promises
to take starvation
832
00:32:19,921 --> 00:32:22,422
out of any crisis in the world.
833
00:32:22,490 --> 00:32:24,725
Narrator: Spirulina
is an algae rich
834
00:32:24,792 --> 00:32:27,194
in vitamins, protein,
and other nutrients
835
00:32:27,261 --> 00:32:28,929
that it's been said a
person could survive
836
00:32:28,997 --> 00:32:30,998
on it and water alone.
837
00:32:31,065 --> 00:32:32,866
Spirulina's even
been included in
838
00:32:32,934 --> 00:32:37,437
planned diets for NASA
missions to Mars.
839
00:32:37,505 --> 00:32:40,207
Israel: What exactly
does blowing air
840
00:32:40,274 --> 00:32:41,875
into this tank do anyway?
841
00:32:41,943 --> 00:32:43,427
Ryan croft: Agitation
is really good
842
00:32:43,528 --> 00:32:45,896
for the solution
but also you are
843
00:32:45,964 --> 00:32:48,031
introducing carbon
dioxide and oxygen.
844
00:32:48,099 --> 00:32:52,402
It loves carbon dioxide.
845
00:32:53,071 --> 00:32:55,305
The best way to
harvest spirulina is
846
00:32:55,373 --> 00:32:56,940
to just put a tube in.
847
00:32:56,975 --> 00:32:59,443
Almost like siphoning gasoline.
848
00:32:59,510 --> 00:33:01,178
I mean, you can eat
it right off the
849
00:33:01,245 --> 00:33:02,323
filter cloth if you wanted to.
850
00:33:02,347 --> 00:33:03,480
It's like a buttery,
851
00:33:03,548 --> 00:33:05,415
almost tasteless substance.
852
00:33:05,483 --> 00:33:08,452
You need about five to
10 grams of it daily
853
00:33:08,519 --> 00:33:11,989
to get a good nutritive
supplemental supply.
854
00:33:12,056 --> 00:33:13,423
If you want to live on it alone,
855
00:33:13,491 --> 00:33:15,192
probably 20 grams a day.
856
00:33:15,259 --> 00:33:17,694
Narrator: Ryan thinks
his ten gallon aquarium
857
00:33:17,762 --> 00:33:21,932
can produce up to five grams
of spirulina each day.
858
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,101
That means by his estimates he'd
859
00:33:24,168 --> 00:33:26,670
need more than 30
spirulina aquariums
860
00:33:26,738 --> 00:33:29,339
just to feed his
family of seven.
861
00:33:29,407 --> 00:33:31,008
In order to make it
a resource for his
862
00:33:31,075 --> 00:33:33,110
whole community, he's
recruited friends and
863
00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:35,212
neighbors to help him
establish spirulina
864
00:33:35,279 --> 00:33:37,481
farms throughout town.
865
00:33:37,548 --> 00:33:38,826
Ryan croft: Your
number one resource
866
00:33:38,850 --> 00:33:40,951
should be people.
867
00:33:41,019 --> 00:33:44,121
And that is not on most
people's preppers list.
868
00:33:44,188 --> 00:33:46,323
They think that means
I've got a doctor.
869
00:33:46,391 --> 00:33:48,892
I've got a tactician,
I've got an engineer;
870
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:53,864
that's not people,
those are jobs.
871
00:33:53,931 --> 00:33:56,366
We'd like to select
maybe a half a dozen
872
00:33:56,434 --> 00:33:58,368
people that we can
actually spread this
873
00:33:58,436 --> 00:34:02,039
spirulina tech to right
away so that we have
874
00:34:02,106 --> 00:34:05,308
got 100 to 150
gallons on hand fully
875
00:34:05,376 --> 00:34:08,178
mature and available.
876
00:34:08,246 --> 00:34:10,480
You only need about 15
milliliters to go in,
877
00:34:10,548 --> 00:34:11,815
start a new colony.
878
00:34:11,883 --> 00:34:14,785
So we'd have the
resources to set up about
879
00:34:14,819 --> 00:34:17,521
1,000 little micro-farms.
880
00:34:17,588 --> 00:34:19,556
I believe that the
people with the greatest
881
00:34:19,624 --> 00:34:22,059
chance of survival
are those that can
882
00:34:22,126 --> 00:34:23,894
genuinely stick together.
883
00:34:23,961 --> 00:34:26,496
I'm talkin' about
regionally stick together,
884
00:34:26,564 --> 00:34:28,765
I don't mean your
little 20-person group.
885
00:34:28,833 --> 00:34:30,367
That's not enough.
886
00:34:30,435 --> 00:34:34,237
You need as many
people as you can to
887
00:34:34,305 --> 00:34:35,672
have the same objective.
888
00:34:35,740 --> 00:34:38,975
And that is to stay alive
with one condition:
889
00:34:39,043 --> 00:34:41,745
Everyone lives, no one dies.
890
00:34:41,813 --> 00:34:43,847
Narrator: If America's
food supply lines break
891
00:34:43,915 --> 00:34:46,049
down following an
economic collapse,
892
00:34:46,117 --> 00:34:47,951
Ryan understands
not everyone in his
893
00:34:48,019 --> 00:34:50,420
community will
want to eat algae.
894
00:34:50,488 --> 00:34:52,289
So he's cultivating
another abundant
895
00:34:52,356 --> 00:34:55,592
source of protein, earthworms.
896
00:34:55,793 --> 00:34:57,237
Ryan croft: Six little
worms will provide
897
00:34:57,261 --> 00:34:58,862
you with an entire
day's worth of
898
00:34:58,930 --> 00:35:00,464
high quality protein.
899
00:35:00,531 --> 00:35:02,432
You'll have a thousand
or 2 or 3,000 of
900
00:35:02,500 --> 00:35:04,301
them in the average
American yard.
901
00:35:04,368 --> 00:35:06,603
Once you hit about 3,000 worms,
902
00:35:06,671 --> 00:35:09,372
you're always going
to have worms.
903
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,309
So guys this our
next little piece of
904
00:35:12,376 --> 00:35:16,413
survival tech for
prepping our city.
905
00:35:16,481 --> 00:35:18,415
Tom: The big question is,
906
00:35:18,483 --> 00:35:20,083
which one of you guys,
907
00:35:20,151 --> 00:35:21,518
is going to have the worm?
908
00:35:21,586 --> 00:35:22,886
The first worm.
909
00:35:22,954 --> 00:35:24,454
Isra: I think that will be you.
910
00:35:24,555 --> 00:35:27,591
Tom: No, I'm talking
about you young kids
911
00:35:27,658 --> 00:35:28,825
kid: I don't like worms.
912
00:35:28,860 --> 00:35:29,759
Ryan croft: Oh they're tasty;
913
00:35:29,827 --> 00:35:31,128
wait till you try one.
914
00:35:31,229 --> 00:35:33,363
My gosh, they are flavorful!
915
00:35:33,431 --> 00:35:34,431
Kid: No thank you.
916
00:35:34,499 --> 00:35:35,976
Ryan croft: It's
important to teach my
917
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,136
kids because morale
and mindset is
918
00:35:39,203 --> 00:35:41,471
a huge component to survival.
919
00:35:41,539 --> 00:35:43,440
So long as you don't
think it's worm,
920
00:35:43,508 --> 00:35:44,774
it's a lot easier on the mind.
921
00:35:44,842 --> 00:35:46,386
Narrator: Earthworms
provide a comparable
922
00:35:46,410 --> 00:35:48,130
amount of protein you
can get eating eggs or
923
00:35:48,179 --> 00:35:50,413
cow's milk, and are
consumed regularly in
924
00:35:50,481 --> 00:35:53,416
almost 90 countries.
925
00:35:53,484 --> 00:35:57,287
Ryan prefers his with hot sauce.
926
00:36:00,158 --> 00:36:01,798
Ryan croft: Hot sauce
goes a long way with
927
00:36:01,826 --> 00:36:04,294
helping you eat things
you normally wouldn't eat.
928
00:36:04,362 --> 00:36:05,362
Corbin!
929
00:36:05,396 --> 00:36:07,364
I'll pick one out
for you, a good one.
930
00:36:07,431 --> 00:36:09,065
We'll give you this little guy.
931
00:36:09,133 --> 00:36:11,635
Hold him, clean him off.
932
00:36:11,702 --> 00:36:14,304
Corbin: This is so crazy.
933
00:36:16,941 --> 00:36:17,841
Alex: No sauce.
934
00:36:17,942 --> 00:36:19,109
He's straight up, he's man
935
00:36:19,177 --> 00:36:20,544
tom: Oh, you're the man.
936
00:36:20,611 --> 00:36:23,280
Ryan croft: Tastes
like dirt, huh?
937
00:36:23,347 --> 00:36:24,147
Corbin: Yeah.
938
00:36:24,215 --> 00:36:25,715
Tom: Wow, nice.
939
00:36:25,816 --> 00:36:26,983
Good man!
940
00:36:27,051 --> 00:36:30,053
You did well, I'm
proud of you boy.
941
00:36:30,121 --> 00:36:31,365
Corbin: I would have
to be pretty hungry
942
00:36:31,389 --> 00:36:33,690
to eat one of those
but I would do it.
943
00:36:33,758 --> 00:36:35,492
Ryan croft: You have
the capability of
944
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,727
taking care of
yourself with only
945
00:36:37,795 --> 00:36:40,697
that which nature
provides in abundance.
946
00:36:40,765 --> 00:36:44,167
Adaptability, flexibility
is the number one
947
00:36:44,235 --> 00:36:47,604
skill that you should
cultivate in yourself.
948
00:36:47,638 --> 00:36:49,406
Narrator: Apart from
algae and worms,
949
00:36:49,507 --> 00:36:51,675
Ryan doesn't put
too much emphasis
950
00:36:51,742 --> 00:36:54,177
on stockpiling additional food.
951
00:36:54,245 --> 00:36:55,556
Ryan croft: We have
about 1,200 pounds
952
00:36:55,580 --> 00:36:56,696
of food storage.
953
00:36:56,797 --> 00:36:59,132
On a normal 2,200
calorie per day diet.
954
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,268
I've only got about
3 to 4 months.
955
00:37:01,335 --> 00:37:03,870
But you really don't have
to stock a lot of things.
956
00:37:03,938 --> 00:37:05,405
Especially if you have got some
957
00:37:05,473 --> 00:37:08,842
experience with primitive
survival techniques.
958
00:37:08,876 --> 00:37:11,211
Narrator: Ryan spent four
years in the airforce
959
00:37:11,279 --> 00:37:13,113
and learned how to
survive off the land
960
00:37:13,180 --> 00:37:14,848
with limited resources.
961
00:37:14,916 --> 00:37:16,349
Ryan croft: I lived primitively
962
00:37:16,417 --> 00:37:17,884
for years, intentionally.
963
00:37:17,952 --> 00:37:20,153
No power, no running water and
964
00:37:20,221 --> 00:37:23,156
I lived for a long time.
965
00:37:23,224 --> 00:37:24,524
We're going to scavenge from our
966
00:37:24,592 --> 00:37:25,992
local environment,
967
00:37:26,060 --> 00:37:28,128
to supplement our food storage.
968
00:37:28,195 --> 00:37:29,996
Narrator: Tonight,
he's taking his boys
969
00:37:30,064 --> 00:37:32,098
out into the local
woods to show them what
970
00:37:32,166 --> 00:37:35,669
else he expects them to
do should doomsday come.
971
00:37:35,736 --> 00:37:37,771
Ryan croft: One of
the lesser and least
972
00:37:37,838 --> 00:37:39,940
appreciated foods around America
973
00:37:40,007 --> 00:37:42,142
is the common field mouse;
974
00:37:42,209 --> 00:37:43,343
full of nutrition.
975
00:37:43,411 --> 00:37:44,678
If you eat the whole thing,
976
00:37:44,745 --> 00:37:45,845
the whole little mouse,
977
00:37:45,913 --> 00:37:48,481
you're going to have
a complete diet.
978
00:37:48,549 --> 00:37:49,849
Narrator: Field mice are a
979
00:37:49,917 --> 00:37:51,518
constantly renewable resource.
980
00:37:51,585 --> 00:37:54,487
Each female can give
birth to 83 mice
981
00:37:54,555 --> 00:37:56,690
in the course of one year.
982
00:37:56,757 --> 00:37:58,591
But at roughly 70 calories each,
983
00:37:58,659 --> 00:38:00,093
in order to meet
minimum recommend
984
00:38:00,161 --> 00:38:03,496
calorie requirements on
a 100% mouse diet,
985
00:38:03,564 --> 00:38:06,433
he'd have to consume
17 mice each day.
986
00:38:06,500 --> 00:38:08,935
So for Ryan it's
extremely important that
987
00:38:09,003 --> 00:38:11,237
his boys become
skilled mouse hunters.
988
00:38:11,305 --> 00:38:13,506
Ryan croft: We're going to
demonstrate a paiute trap.
989
00:38:13,574 --> 00:38:15,342
You put a little twig in here.
990
00:38:15,409 --> 00:38:16,910
See my side, where
my fingers are?
991
00:38:16,978 --> 00:38:18,878
That's where you need
to apply the pressure.
992
00:38:18,946 --> 00:38:21,047
Narrator: Ryan is building
a simple deadfall trap
993
00:38:21,115 --> 00:38:23,583
out of notched sticks
and a heavy rock.
994
00:38:23,651 --> 00:38:26,219
By tying the bait to the
end of the trigger stick,
995
00:38:26,287 --> 00:38:28,021
if it's disturbed
it will cause the
996
00:38:28,089 --> 00:38:30,557
delicately balanced
sticks to collapse,
997
00:38:30,624 --> 00:38:32,993
and the deadweight will fall.
998
00:38:33,060 --> 00:38:34,638
Ryan croft: All he has
to do is sniff on that
999
00:38:34,662 --> 00:38:35,895
peanut butter a little bit.
1000
00:38:35,963 --> 00:38:38,431
It does not take
very much pressure.
1001
00:38:38,499 --> 00:38:41,001
A fraction of an ounce
touches that stick
1002
00:38:41,068 --> 00:38:43,203
and we want that little
tiny bit of weight
1003
00:38:43,270 --> 00:38:44,537
to trip this off.
1004
00:38:44,605 --> 00:38:47,407
This is a very dense
habitat for mice.
1005
00:38:47,475 --> 00:38:50,243
So hook them up with the
convenience store right here.
1006
00:38:50,311 --> 00:38:54,514
They can check in,
but not check out.
1007
00:38:57,284 --> 00:39:01,121
Alright, well there you go.
1008
00:39:01,822 --> 00:39:05,258
Common field mouse
and he's dinner.
1009
00:39:06,961 --> 00:39:10,096
All right, guys
I brought dinner.
1010
00:39:10,164 --> 00:39:11,297
Corbin: What are we havin'?
1011
00:39:11,332 --> 00:39:12,809
Ryan croft: Little mouse,
little field mouse.
1012
00:39:12,833 --> 00:39:14,067
He didn't feel a thing.
1013
00:39:14,135 --> 00:39:16,236
There's no good way
to skin a mouse.
1014
00:39:16,303 --> 00:39:18,438
You pretty much just
destroy them if you do.
1015
00:39:18,506 --> 00:39:19,639
We're going to hammer him out.
1016
00:39:19,707 --> 00:39:21,074
Break his little bones up.
1017
00:39:21,142 --> 00:39:23,743
Front to back, from
the head down and
1018
00:39:23,811 --> 00:39:25,845
then we just drop him
right in the coals.
1019
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,124
You roll him around
a little bit.
1020
00:39:27,148 --> 00:39:28,281
Let him get crispy.
1021
00:39:28,349 --> 00:39:29,783
Ben: So what's the
best part to eat?
1022
00:39:29,850 --> 00:39:32,552
Ryan croft: His head.
1023
00:39:32,620 --> 00:39:35,388
So boys, who's going to
try some mouse?
1024
00:39:35,456 --> 00:39:37,490
Corbin: Not me, I had
the worm last time.
1025
00:39:37,558 --> 00:39:38,391
Ryan croft: Gordy?
1026
00:39:38,459 --> 00:39:39,659
Gordy: I don't think so.
1027
00:39:39,727 --> 00:39:40,660
Ryan croft: You don't think so.
1028
00:39:40,728 --> 00:39:41,694
You might be hungry someday,
1029
00:39:41,729 --> 00:39:42,929
you might really.
1030
00:39:42,997 --> 00:39:44,441
Gordy: Yeah, I'll do it
when I'm really hungry.
1031
00:39:44,465 --> 00:39:45,165
Ryan croft: All right.
1032
00:39:45,232 --> 00:39:46,433
Ben: I'll try it.
1033
00:39:46,500 --> 00:39:48,835
Ryan croft: All right.
1034
00:39:56,077 --> 00:39:58,711
Ben: Mmmm.
1035
00:39:58,779 --> 00:40:00,814
Ryan croft: Charcoal-y, huh?
1036
00:40:00,881 --> 00:40:02,082
Count of three.
1037
00:40:02,149 --> 00:40:03,950
Gordy: One two three.
1038
00:40:04,018 --> 00:40:04,818
Alex: Go.
1039
00:40:04,885 --> 00:40:05,785
You got it, you got it.
1040
00:40:05,853 --> 00:40:06,853
Go 'head, you got it.
1041
00:40:06,887 --> 00:40:08,021
Go 'head, crunch it up.
1042
00:40:08,089 --> 00:40:09,099
It's gone, it's gone, it's gone.
1043
00:40:09,123 --> 00:40:12,625
There you go, there you go.
1044
00:40:12,693 --> 00:40:14,360
Ryan croft: It's delicious.
1045
00:40:14,462 --> 00:40:15,662
Gordy: Ugh
1046
00:40:15,729 --> 00:40:17,931
Ryan croft: A few good
tools, plus know-how,
1047
00:40:17,998 --> 00:40:19,666
you can find mice anywhere.
1048
00:40:19,733 --> 00:40:21,301
You'll never go hungry.
1049
00:40:21,368 --> 00:40:22,836
Narrator: Scavenging
enough food to
1050
00:40:22,903 --> 00:40:25,305
survive on in an
apocalypse is one thing;
1051
00:40:25,372 --> 00:40:27,006
keeping it safe from
those who would take
1052
00:40:27,074 --> 00:40:29,476
it from you is another.
1053
00:40:29,543 --> 00:40:32,045
So Ryan has taken
extreme measures to prepare
1054
00:40:32,113 --> 00:40:34,347
his community to
defend themselves
1055
00:40:34,415 --> 00:40:37,050
to the death, if necessary.
1056
00:40:42,072 --> 00:40:44,107
Now preppers in
asheville, north Carolina,
1057
00:40:44,175 --> 00:40:46,443
are preparing for the
looming economic collapse
1058
00:40:46,510 --> 00:40:48,978
that Ryan feels is inevitable.
1059
00:40:49,046 --> 00:40:50,724
Ryan croft: We're not
prepping for ourselves.
1060
00:40:50,748 --> 00:40:52,081
We're going the step beyond;
1061
00:40:52,149 --> 00:40:54,117
we're prepping for our city.
1062
00:40:54,185 --> 00:40:55,785
Narrator: Ryan fears
his determination to
1063
00:40:55,853 --> 00:40:57,987
stay in the city and
help his neighbors will
1064
00:40:58,055 --> 00:41:00,623
put him in the path
of violent looters.
1065
00:41:00,691 --> 00:41:02,992
So Ryan wants every
prepper in his group to
1066
00:41:03,093 --> 00:41:04,894
be suffiently armed
1067
00:41:04,962 --> 00:41:06,473
Ryan croft: I think we
should all be armed.
1068
00:41:06,497 --> 00:41:07,597
If you're armed,
1069
00:41:07,665 --> 00:41:09,566
it changes the game completely.
1070
00:41:09,633 --> 00:41:13,520
More arms works better
than less arms.
1071
00:41:13,587 --> 00:41:15,465
Narrator: But Ryan's not
content with what's on the
1072
00:41:15,489 --> 00:41:18,758
market, so he's looking
to create a custom weapon
1073
00:41:18,826 --> 00:41:21,227
specifically to suit
a prepper's needs.
1074
00:41:21,295 --> 00:41:23,796
Ryan croft: I took
the best of the ak-47
1075
00:41:23,864 --> 00:41:26,466
and combined it with
the logistical system
1076
00:41:26,534 --> 00:41:28,301
of the ar-15.
1077
00:41:28,369 --> 00:41:31,171
Narrator: The ak-47 is
generally considered
1078
00:41:31,238 --> 00:41:34,908
durable, cheap, and easy to use,
1079
00:41:34,975 --> 00:41:39,779
but an inferior
weapon to the ar-15,
1080
00:41:39,847 --> 00:41:42,182
which is generally
more expensive.
1081
00:41:42,249 --> 00:41:44,918
Ryan thought if he could
combine the best aspects
1082
00:41:44,985 --> 00:41:49,189
of each gun, he'd have the
perfect prepper weapon.
1083
00:41:49,256 --> 00:41:50,790
Ryan croft: This
is Joshua mark one.
1084
00:41:50,858 --> 00:41:52,592
I named it after general Joshua,
1085
00:41:52,626 --> 00:41:54,194
my favorite biblical character.
1086
00:41:54,261 --> 00:41:56,029
Ah, the general pretty
much that secured the
1087
00:41:56,096 --> 00:41:57,931
promised land for
the israelites.
1088
00:41:57,998 --> 00:42:00,133
This is my very first
gun that I built.
1089
00:42:00,201 --> 00:42:01,701
It's sort of the
closest thing a man
1090
00:42:01,769 --> 00:42:04,037
can get to having
a child, I think.
1091
00:42:04,104 --> 00:42:05,582
Cause it's just a
little bunch of parts
1092
00:42:05,606 --> 00:42:06,616
and you bring it together.
1093
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:07,740
You breathe life into it
1094
00:42:07,775 --> 00:42:09,342
and it's magical, you know?
1095
00:42:09,410 --> 00:42:15,548
This weapon is perfect for, ah,
1096
00:42:15,616 --> 00:42:17,083
I would say for
American prepper,
1097
00:42:17,151 --> 00:42:19,052
but really just for America.
1098
00:42:19,119 --> 00:42:21,454
Period.
1099
00:42:21,522 --> 00:42:23,389
Alex: Covering!
1100
00:42:29,747 --> 00:42:31,214
Ryan croft: We're prepared to do
1101
00:42:31,282 --> 00:42:34,350
everything that's
necessary to survive.
1102
00:42:34,418 --> 00:42:37,387
We choose to try and save
as many lives as we can.
1103
00:42:37,454 --> 00:42:38,788
Frontal!
1104
00:42:38,856 --> 00:42:41,190
Number one advice
I have for America?
1105
00:42:41,258 --> 00:42:42,959
Be flexible.
1106
00:42:43,027 --> 00:42:45,295
Widen your mind, broaden your
1107
00:42:45,362 --> 00:42:49,198
capabilities adapt and overcome.
1108
00:42:51,769 --> 00:42:53,002
Narrator: Ryan, the experts at
1109
00:42:53,070 --> 00:42:54,671
practical preppers
commend you for
1110
00:42:54,738 --> 00:42:56,873
your community action plan.
1111
00:42:56,941 --> 00:42:58,808
By rallying your
friends and neighbors
1112
00:42:58,876 --> 00:43:00,209
you will establish a system that
1113
00:43:00,277 --> 00:43:02,679
mutually benefits everyone.
1114
00:43:02,746 --> 00:43:04,614
Ryan croft: Thank you.
1115
00:43:04,682 --> 00:43:06,293
Narrator: Your varied
and non-conventional
1116
00:43:06,317 --> 00:43:09,619
food sources are
clever and efficient
1117
00:43:09,687 --> 00:43:11,054
however you may have trouble
1118
00:43:11,121 --> 00:43:12,822
feeding your family of seven.
1119
00:43:12,890 --> 00:43:14,490
We recommend you look
into expanding your
1120
00:43:14,558 --> 00:43:19,028
stockpile of traditional
foods with long shelf life.
1121
00:43:19,096 --> 00:43:21,030
Ryan croft: Understood,
I don't disagree.
1122
00:43:21,098 --> 00:43:23,299
However, if we fully develop our
1123
00:43:23,367 --> 00:43:27,470
spirulina tech, I think
we'll be just fine.
1124
00:43:28,038 --> 00:43:29,482
Narrator: To determine
how long you could
1125
00:43:29,506 --> 00:43:31,240
initially survive a catastrophe,
1126
00:43:31,308 --> 00:43:33,643
practical preppers has
scored your preps in
1127
00:43:33,711 --> 00:43:37,413
five categories of
20 points each.
1128
00:43:37,848 --> 00:43:40,917
Food: 14 out of 20 points.
1129
00:43:40,985 --> 00:43:42,652
Needing to walk half
a mile to collect
1130
00:43:42,720 --> 00:43:45,421
water is impractical
and could be dangerous:
1131
00:43:45,489 --> 00:43:47,857
9 out of 20 points.
1132
00:43:47,925 --> 00:43:51,094
Shelter: 13 out of 20 points.
1133
00:43:51,161 --> 00:43:54,864
Security: 15 out of 20 points.
1134
00:43:54,932 --> 00:43:56,866
Your community approach
to helping neighbors
1135
00:43:56,934 --> 00:43:58,635
and sharing your
spirulina gives you
1136
00:43:58,702 --> 00:44:01,137
12 x-factor points.
1137
00:44:01,205 --> 00:44:04,574
Overall, you get
a 63 out of 100.
1138
00:44:04,642 --> 00:44:08,611
You have ten months
initial survival time.
1139
00:44:08,679 --> 00:44:10,747
Ryan croft: Well my
family have deeply
1140
00:44:10,814 --> 00:44:13,583
appreciated the assessment.
1141
00:44:13,651 --> 00:44:14,984
You check us out.
1142
00:44:15,052 --> 00:44:17,820
If the world will
give us another year
1143
00:44:17,888 --> 00:44:20,857
I think we'll be doubly,
triply impressive.
1144
00:44:22,259 --> 00:44:24,193
We've made a lot of
really good progress.
1145
00:44:24,261 --> 00:44:25,862
Not in every way
that we want to,
1146
00:44:25,929 --> 00:44:27,964
but in very significant ways.
1147
00:44:28,032 --> 00:44:30,600
Our spirulina is
doing quite well.
1148
00:44:30,668 --> 00:44:33,503
It's very thick, it's
ready for harvesting.
1149
00:44:33,570 --> 00:44:36,139
And we've posted a lot
of videos on YouTube
1150
00:44:36,206 --> 00:44:39,342
showing what we've done
and how we've done it,
1151
00:44:39,410 --> 00:44:41,144
so that we can help
more people that
1152
00:44:41,211 --> 00:44:44,147
are also trying to prepare.
1153
00:44:45,449 --> 00:44:47,383
Narrator: In spite of
the recent recession and
1154
00:44:47,451 --> 00:44:50,553
European debt crisis,
most economists believe
1155
00:44:50,621 --> 00:44:52,889
a near-term depression
is unlikely,
1156
00:44:52,956 --> 00:44:55,091
and the odds of a global
collapse that would result
1157
00:44:55,159 --> 00:44:57,994
in a severe breakdown
of society are remote.
