Survival Kit In A Can Review - Survival Gear

The Survival Kit in a Can has a lot of survival gear items packed in what looks like a sardine can. In this video we take a look and see just what comes in the can and if it is any good.

someone should do a survival kit in a baked bean can, then you would have a decent size container for boiling water or cooking in, also the kit would be better as more room for things like a small knife & maybe a ration of some sort? Thanks for posting enjoyed your vid.

I knew a Canadian guy. He said they never went into the woods without Lipton's CupANoodle soup. In those days, it came in an envelope about the size of a little packet of sugar. He said it had zero nutritional value, but it made a warm drink. It was a morale booster, a comfort food.

For $13 this can sure is packed... But i think i has some space... They could've put in a flint and a striker too and some aquatabs to clean water... And that kit will come in very handy

Honestly not bad for such a small can...

Brian, I have an idea. I call it the "medicine bag" survival kit. Native Americans have used neck pouches worn like necklaces around their necks, used like wallets in contemporary times, and historically,  to hold medicinal plants/stones. The problem with many 10-piece kits, is they're often too bulky for what many wish to bring on day hikes, while the Altoids kits (and the mini-kits like the one in this video) although better than nothing,  are inadequate. My idea is to hold a stainless steel flask bottle (1 1/2 cup capacity) in the "medicine bag" pouch. The bottle would look like a liquor flask, but wide-mouthed, curved (to have it rest snugly/comfortably against the sternum). It would be like an Altoids kit, but with superior ability to disinfect/contain water, and contain other better items due to its larger size/capacity. It could contain: a 16-ounce Platypus rolled-up, a Gerber mini-lock blade, a Bic mini-lighter, mylar blanket, parachute cord or bank line (or even smaller cord due to space constraints- i.e. dental floss), a Suunto button-compass, large needle/thread, mini-flashlight, duct tape and various other optional things (a small ferro rod, water-purification tablets, etc.). Some of the items could be held in slots or other pockets on the outside of the medicine bag. One principle that often gets overlooked is that while climbing, boating/kayaking/white-water rafting, or on other excursions- people can/do lose their packs. The plastic bags used in most Altoids kits are dangerously unreliable to continually contain water. Also, Altoids tins usually have insufficient space to contain a substantial cover element. One could argue that the back-up elements could be kept in pockets or on-person, but having these items attached to a person's belt, in pockets, around their wrists, is often bulky and cumbersome, and can result in frustrated people dumping everything into their packs. What is also cool about a medicine bag is that it acknowledges the American culture, yet still includes modern technology and Western culture. You could have someone make the bags (in America) or buy from a Native American company and then sell them with the bottles. Then, suggest via video things to make it an ideal back-up survival kit (which you could link to Amazon for the suggested contents). This would be an ideal Christmas gift! Let me know what you think...

The kit was better than I thought. Too bad it doesn't have a reusable lid instead of a pull tab lid.

[SHADYSHOOTER]

You can also bend the lid and turn it into a spoon

First video I've seen by you. I like it. You're narration is very pleasing and entertaining. Good job!

[marshish]

Good video. I keep one in my life jacket as a last resort in case I end up losing all my gear (a real possibility if you're swimming to shore). Good to see what's actually in there! Thanks!

[RealitySurvival]

Excellent Stump Top Review! Totally agree with your final thoughts as well!

[LupusDeImmortalis]

Stumbled across your channel. (More specifically this video, But after watching I've subscribed.) And I've got to say I was actually impressed with the amount of tools and items you pulled out of such a small can. I think simply the fact that it is pocket sized and a sealed, steel container would make it a great additional to any survival kit. Loved the video. Keep them coming.

[Mzrenegade]

I think a resealable can would be more useful

[stevejohnson]

I watch a lot of videos like this and had zero expectations. I prefer build your own kits in a Altoids tin personally but this really blew me away with all of the neat stuff that appeared to actually work in such a tiny package. Great video!

Here I am, spending a pleasent evening after work watching your vids until bedtime.Regards

Hi Bryan:

Much better than expected, and deffinately better than many at least two other pre made survival kits I have seen recently.

I must admit I was surprised when the match lit up and one of the fire starters worked.

If I had an empty can out there I would put the reflective tape on the bottom of the can. It would do two things for you.

a. Steady place for a mirror.

b. Concave bottom would give you a parabolic fire starter when matches run out.

I was actually impressed. Deffinately worth keeping in a pocket or glove box.

I agree with you conpletely about keeping

[whiterabbit]

Another great video. Looks like a handy lil' kit to toss in my fishing kit or glove box in the wife's car. I'm very surprised there was no space or emergency blanket. What's up with that!! LOL!

[waveman]

This kit was the first one I purchase several years ago, and it was interesting to see all the items out and being used, thank you. I agree totally with your assessment.
