all right so we're out here at the worst-case-scenario survival school
we're out here with Randy Wurst, Randy "Rawhide" Wurst and Randy's the real deal
he's one of four guys that actually built the classified survival manual for
SOCOM all right so we've laid out all the stuff that Randy had in his at the
back of his box here Randy I thought I had a lot of stuff in my Jeep in my
suburban this is a lot of stuff I don't even know where to start
Randy: all right well basically is it's not only survivor but emergency gear to
extract people take care of emergencies because I said 90% of your situations
would be be based on your vehicle what we're going to do I'm not going to tear
stuff apart will point the stuff or Karl'll point stuff over there and I'll explain
very fast some of the stuff is here let's start with some of the most
important that Crescent that's a that's a fencing pliers the versatility this
tool is one of your most valuable tools that you can have in your vehicle you've
got to pick in you got a hammer end got wire cutters here you got a clamp where
you can grab stuff and you have stuff where you can grab like pulling out tacks and
nails and stuff it's very extremely versatile always have something like
that in your toolbox okay the crescent wrench I went around to my vehicle this
is important and I found out what were my largest nuts that I had and I got a
crescent wrench it was big enough to fit anything you have to go and do that so
if there's an issue and something else breaks we're going to get in sockets at
least you have a crescent wrench that can work now the importance of this tool
set here that you'll see is the fact that the you don't need different
lengths of sockets because the sockets go all the way through so if there was a
long post that he was going to have to go through it'll go all the way through
there and down to it extremely important if you have a socket SiC that you have
something like this in your vehicle okay I can't express
that enough because you want to keep your vehicle going do not destroy your
vehicle if at all possible all right so let's start up on Karl's side that's just
the ball hitch I don't want to be breaking my leg with it sticking out so
it goes inside there back in the corner that is a little grill that I use back
there and I keep that yes that's there so I can cook off of it you see 550 cord
fire extinguisher I've had my axles catch on fire always fire extinguishers
funnels these are cigarette lighter fluid 91% alcohol of silicone spray
stuff like that's in there alright that netting right there Karl that's the that
you cover that you go over so if you're carrying something fly out but you can
make a shelter out of that alright that next bag real quick there that's the MSR
would it gravity flow air water purifier not a filter but that's a
purifier and it will also do gasoline one of the rare ones that will there in
all my vehicles ok? underneath that is zip ties I don't have
time for it but zip ties are extremely important I knew a ton of stuff with zip
ties towing clamps but also if your vehicle is off in a precarious position
I can clamp it off and tie it off the tree wouldn't move the same thing with
my cocking hoist ok these are longer zip ties that you
see here real quick these are you drop something you need to get into something
one is a magnet one is a cloth thing you don't know remember this is to handle
emergency situations so you don't know what you're going to get into you just
cover your bases right here is the coveralls when we talked about large
stuff this is big enough for Karl me and someone else Skinnier but it's also in
the wintertime I get the lined one and put it in there so that I can keep
somebody warm keep them from having hypothermia this is the
those micro towels that you can wipe off and they dry in seconds
these are cables to fasten and tie stuff down if I if I needed to lock something
down I came these are old-school but this is the canvas water carriers and
you put it on our vehicle yeah and it seals up this is canvas tarps same thing
we used on a horses one back home when we were outfitting and guiding excellent
because I always wear gore-tex boots if I need to go in the water climb trees or
rocks I have my five finger shoes okay ah this is a hundred foot now this this
is just for emergency rope this is 100 foot emergency rope that I can get down
to a situation to help somebody Karl has that's a self contained not
only Swiss seat but it's 380 pound test line really small line in there and I
can rappel with that that's a complete set in there
excellent Karl: could get real good Randy: yeah all my um rappelling gear is right in here
stuff and all my tie-down stuff I'm not going to get into it okay this has all
my survival gear from slingshots you name it everything there's emergency
lights on all my gear so you can mark it if you were leaving it this flashlight
sitting outside I'm not going to get into this but this thing is jammed
packed full there's duplications on stuff so that I
could share stuff with Karl or Mike behind you and then we could duplicate
different jobs I could we could tasks organize it it isn't just what you can
use is what you can help other people use that's what's in here
there's blankets there's different types of clothing but what's unique about this
I'm not going to get into these is that these are those waterproof dry bags Karl: okay
Randy: put all my stuff in the dry bag extremely important your cables the
thing you need to know about it I think it goes
yeah the smaller the number the larger like number four cable Karl: yeah go large
Randy: gives you yeah gives you all the juice your battery
give you this seems old-school but when everything goes the nuts on yet you need
a hand pump okay so that you can pump your tires up it it will always be there
for you what's in this stuff here is a Karl: I see a fuel filter you Randy: fuel stuff for making
fires and stuff in a sealant for my tires real quick for my tires now this
is interesting this is a hula popper that floats on top of the water fishing
lure but it goes with this small pole not only can i fish with a small pole
but let's say Karl cause he's a good shot he drops a bird in the water now I put
it on this line hook that into it and I throw it out and I can bring the fish
okay? Karl: okay don't have to get wet Randy: yes there you go that's exactly why I
have that this is just a fillet knife for fish this is for siphoning okay
this is plastic tubing always have that with you in an emergency I'm not going to
get into detail with this is what I use when I want to boil water something I
made Karl: that they've got to come in person to see you use because that thing is
awesome, great idea Randy: okay so let's go down to what we've got
here um what I tried to separate it is some of the hand tools that we're going
to use I know it looks like a lot but if you're going to try to extract people or
help people in emergencies some of these tools are specific for that other things
or it can help you in survival situations the files you I know it looks
kind of strange having all these different type of files and stuff but in
an emergency situation around vehicles or equipment there's a lot of work that
I can do that I can get it back up if I just have the right tool doesn't take
much room that's why the files and extra saw blades and saw blades are here and
if you're cutting tools all you have to have a sharpener to go with it so I
always have sharpeners in all my gear you have to keep your blade sharp next
to Karl that's a
want to break that down but that is a complete a 22 rifle system it's also
waterproof it floats that stays in my vehicle for emergency purposes getting
going my backpack pretty easy the 22 shells that are there these this
is actually called this is what a shovel is this is actually a spade okay which I
didn't know that for a long time this is actual shovel this is a spade what's
unique about this real quick is I made it so I could take it down but this is
fiberglass so if you see there I you won't be
able to see in the camera I fit a piece of wood to go down the whole center of
this to make this strong because that fiberglass will break you do have to
reinforce that especially in a vehicle you can dig yourself out you got rocks
your problems that's what this is for but these are all small enough if I
needed to take tools with me I could fit these and tie these on to my rucksack
these are two tools I might take for that for extraction purposes that's what
the crowbars are for once I get a bite with something I can use a longer one to
take advantage of that so that's what the crowbars are for the saws obviously
this is just for cutting fine wood this one is for cutting long wood you know
like logs and what not tree limbs extremely fast and easier to use the saw
than it is to a chop and stuff like that for vines and stuff that's in a way a
good machete and CRKT does a good job on this one because of the handle the way
it's built most all the energy is focused right here so that I'm making
the tool do the work also where the handle is made the material it absorbs
the shock into my hand extremely important if you're using it and you
need to thicker heavier blade to take the punishment okay
the axe this is the Fisher's now you have to have your own covers made what's
important about this axes it's actually I'm not going to go and take it down if
you look at it that's got a splitting edge
that comes back here so not only can I chop with it but I can split with it
alright they're all my tools are razor sharp if you look there that's a cut for
me putting this back in he could Karl could probably shave with any of these
knives here, or these blade tools excuse me even my shovels are sharpened
and stuff on the edges I don't make them razor sharp but I sharpen them I just
got done using and digging you can see but you see how that sharpened
everything neat Karl: Like it was just bought Randy: yeah now this is a small axe real important where
I have it as all steel the advantages of this if I need to crack in and start
cutting metal away to get to it start prying with it I need something can take
the punishment so this whole axe is metal the whole shank in it but it's
rubberized to help absorb the shock okay now this doesn't seem like much but
you're in you're in the forced removing you need to get on this back road stuffs
in a way this is one of those tree trimmer systems I can saw cut and cuts
the fun way so it's clearing stuff out of your way you may have to take a
different route out than you came in that's a 22 inch I do this is by
Caltech and this is a 22 mag know that this is collapse down the magazine goes
into the handle and it carries like 30 rounds into it it's a 22 mag you see all
small this is phenomenal little weapon we've broken it down pretty easy to
break down and clean I love the the 22 Magnum even better
than I do the regular 22 it has a lot more versatility this is a new system I
like it very much I haven't used a lot but its impressed me so far now the
other thing on this table real quick
they'll be in all my gear these are candles I make up and because the size
of it I have three different wicks this is my keys for making fires so far
without fail of 100% success in any weather conditions you give me
building fires with my techniques and using my candles alright that's the
stuff that I carry inside my vehicle it seems a lot but it all does fit in there
okay it all has a purpose and a reason you will take and decide for what room
you have where you are what you want to do what you want to pack but everything
you see in this vehicle everything you'll see from this point on for the
lower 48 will be can be used in the lower 48
I can't guarantee what can be used like in Alaska necessarily down in Hawaii but
the 48 states there isn't anything here you can't use that that you'll see in
this vehicle or backpacks or am in any my other gear alright Karl: that's great
information Randy this is awesome
