Survival Bros takes a huge excavator on a crazy farm ride. Watch us play with a giant destruction machine. We hit a trailer, smash concrete, play with a bucket, cross a creek, remove a tree, and dig in the garden! Subscribe on YouTube for more fun videos with friends.

Survival Bros combs The Woods, and identifies King Bolete, or Porcini Mushrooms in Oregon! Hunted in the Clatsop County forest near the Pacific Ocean. Cameron foraged, dried, and ate them for a meal off the land. Dried fungi will last a very long time in your kit. Please share this Survival Bros video, and SUBSCRIBE on YouTube. Many more Adventures coming Summer 2019…

It’s been a wild ride these past few years. If you’ve been following my HD videos, I was #vandwelling for 2.5 years in my Volkswagen Vanagon. I put many miles on her, riding the nugget from hot spring to couches, and cabins. It’s a lifestyle I would go back to, but my survival situation has changed.
I bought a new van! And it broke down. Costing me a fortune. Then I was on foot, and in a tent. Winter hit. I had challenges, and the weather was nasty. It was the worst I’ve ever seen it in the #PNW Now I have a place to stay, a fast car, a part-time job, and an office to make more videos and #Art. I am very #blessed and grateful.
So here we are. Standing strong in the chaos. Better prepared.
What do I want to do next? Stay tuned.

See the new boots Cam got for Spring Time in Oregon! Thanks for watching, and participating in the movement.
Survival Bros Founder Cam and blogger Kelvin cover essential gear stored in the trunk of a reliable vehicle in case of a disaster. We both live on the Oregon Coast, and are actively preparing for a tsunami to wipe out our hometown of Seaside, #OR What do you think this American #prepper has left out? My YouTube subscribers think he needs more water, a BB gun, and a big fixed blade knife for extra protection. However, I can tell you, this guy has dug his own well on his family’s property. So, he meets the one gallon per day, per person quota. Kelvin also has another backup vehicle that is expertly maintained, and fast – a Dodge Stealth.
Share this video with other preppers, like, comment, and SUBSCRIBE on YouTube. Thanks.

See what car living is like for a gypsy travelling on the road in HD video. I think he has a great gear setup for van dwelling. I’m jealous of his sink, with a clever gravity fed water system, harnessing an inexpensive solar shower. Plus, his lighting setup works, and didn’t cost much, thanks to a trip to Dollar Tree. You can’t tell Hugh is in there either, since it’s a cargo van without side rear windows. The dark exterior paint color blend into the darkness, making him more stealth. I like what he has done to insulate the metal sides with cardboard and aluminum tape. Hugh knows the cardboard is organic material, and will eventually decompose, but it’s easy to replace with fresh insulation later. Even the interior wall panels are stuffed with recycled shopping bags for added warmth. We list all of the car camping items for you to spark your imagination, but is there anything you’d add to the recreational vehicle? More van dwelling videos on the way. Stay tuned to Survival Bros.

In this HD video Survival Bros shoots a Glock 19 with a KKM precision barrel, and a 17 round Glock magazine. Tactical Gypsy was practicing trigger control, and getting in range time. Good technique huh? It sure is fun blasting steel targets, but glass bottles are still my favorite. Please subscribe, like, and comment. Oh, and participate in this poll to see the results of our question. Stay tuned. Thanks for visiting the blog.

Cam was given a Nobel Christmas tree to pass on to a stranger
I am a bell ringer. Salvation Army claims they are, “doing the most good.” That may be true. The donations collected stay in the community where they were raised. This helps the less fortunate, so for example, senior citizens can get the prescription pills they need. More hungry are feed too, and shelter may be provided for the homeless.
I volunteered for a seven hour bell ringing session. It was a true experience, unlike anything I’ve ever done. At first, I thought hearing the bell clamor would be torture, but I didn’t even use my headphones for music, or earplugs to drown out the noise. I thought it would be rude, and maybe I’d miss something that someone said. I received hundreds of bright season’s greetings from Wal-Mart shoppers. People smiled, told me to stay warm, and mostly to have a Merry Christmas. I also had guests ask me to look after their bikes while they shopped, keep an eye on where their friend parked the car, and magically recall the location of the person they came in with. It was funny though, and I got to do some people watching. Looking into people’s shopping carts is like glimpsing into their homes. I felt like a Peeping Tom, but it passed the time. Most people were there to buy massive amounts of toilet paper, cat litter, or cat toys. I’m not one to judge, but it was wild to see all the people wearing Mossy Oak (or real tree) camouflage clothing. It was like half the shoppers just got done duck hunting. The other half wore pajamas, slippers, or hideous Christmas sweaters, like they were trying to be a joke. God bless them.
Seriously though, being a bell ringer was one of the most spiritually rewarding opportunities I’ve ever taken. My favorite moments were seeing all the children excited to give. They took a minute or two to figure out how to make the dollars fit into the pot’s slot, but they were so happy, and most skipped away holding their parent’s hand. My bell was fascinating too. I let one girl ring it, the others stared at me like I was a dinosaur. I won’t forget all the people that took a moment, and the change from their pocket, and trusted it would go to a person who needed it more. I saw a few $20’s go in, but maybe a gold coin slipped in there. I will be back in front of a store today. Please help others this holiday season, and volunteer in your community in 2014. Bring peace to Earth.

In this HD video Survival Bros tests the SteriPEN Sidewinder UV Water Purification System. It’s hand powered, meaning it’s battery-free. I think it’s light-weight at 16.6 ounces, and compact enough to fit in a backpack with a height of 8.6 inches. The Sidewinder is perfect for camping, and emergency preparedness. Their moto is “safe drinking water anywhere.” That’s a noble mission, and one we can all appreciate.
Imagine knowing a hurricane is about to devastate your area, and seeing this on your shelf. I can’t picture a prep that would bring more peace of mind than the SteriPEN Sidewinder. This tool disinfects 8,000 liters of water that could be contaminated with bacteria, protozoa, and viruses. Those potentially harmful risks are getting eliminated thanks to the powerful UV lamp. Even a kid could operate this purifier. All you have to do is fill it, flip it, crank it, and drink it. In 90 seconds you have water you don’t have to worry about. Survival Bros is also grateful that the bottle is BPA-free, so you won’t be drinking chemicals that way. In the box you get the 1L container, water-tight bottle lid, and Pre-Filter for particulate removal.
The SterPEN Sidewinder is one of those products a prepper really needs. It’s a good backup to have, in case your regular water source is compromised, or you’re just off the grid. I have no complaints with this system. It feels well made, it works, and will continue to keep me safe for many years. They even offer a 3 year warranty. Plus, they are an American company. Check out their full line of gear at http://www.steripen.com There’s an ultraviolet light solution right for you. I’m sure you’ll see us testing more SteriPEN products in the future. We approve 100%!
