haha, yeah but most of them are total dickheads xD...sure there are some good'uns, but few are far between, whereas uk preppers are well, generally normal decent people (in my limited experience
)
Watch the show:

Seriously, it's actually made quite well and doesn't set out with the intention of making the preppers look crazy. Some of them do that themselves, but that's not the show's fault.
Some of the guys on there are clearly normal, intelligent folks and should help give prepping a better name.
Of course then there's the stupid woman who vindictively laughs about the idea of other people starving while she's OK and does a little dance... (episode 2 or 3 I think) which I think is the most damaging thing to the image of preppers on there.
Must watch TV for me though. Who knew you could buy antibiotics in pet stores? Not me...
(I know this is the 3rd time I've posted this link but I have no association with the site, the other times the link was hidden on page 2 and nobody noticed)
Is that the woman who ran miles and miles to her emergency/BOV car?
Just watched it.
Couldn't stop laughing, great comedy series this is going to be.
Love the reason the lass has joined up with. "To help others".
I creased up at that one. Shame she'll be leaving so soon.
good old sockshare ^^ ima gonna watch it right now, sounds really funny xD can always count on americans to try and appear cool and serious and end up making fools of themselves xD
ok after watching the opening sequence and hearing "their preps will be assessed by experts" i really want an expert to turn round and go, sorry mate your gonna die, you wasted 50k xD
well after watching it all i can say is, oh dear xD some good points but mostly total bull, half the things they were worried about were either very unlikley or wouldnt impact them at all xD
fools xD
