🚨 72 Hour Disaster Survival Kit – What You REALLY Need! - NOW MORE THAN EVER!

Hello, I'm Andrew Price. Welcome to the channel. And today we're going a little bit off piece. So rather than talking about our usual bushcraft and wilderness survival techniques, we're going to delve into emergency preparedness. This video is being made in response to a recent post by the European Commission featuring Hajabib, the European

Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management. Now, the video itself was a bit weird and left a lot to be desired. So, I thought we'd take a look at the contents of a real 72-hour kit and see if we can improve upon it. The concept of a 72-hour kit is quite old school and

it's been largely debunked. So, most people agree that in the event of a true disaster, it can take a lot longer than 72 hours for any kind of normality to resume.

not being prepared is they lack the space. Now, I understand not everybody lives in a house that has some storage space. And even if you're in a one-bedroom apartment, I'm sure you can find enough space for a stacker box like this. This is a 64 L plastic stacker box. And this will hold most of the

equipment that you need for that 72 hours. So, it'll hold all your power packs. It'll hold batteries. It'll hold food. And it'll hold things like candles. So, a box like this, it's very useful if you can find the space for it. But be creative. There's always places in even in the smallest of apartments

where you can store some emergency equipment. One of the most important things to consider is water. And according to the rule of threes, we can only live for 3 days without water, give or take. Now, it's recommended that we should all be drinking 4 L of water a day. That's two of these 2 L containers. That looks like
