When is comes to learning about emergency preparedness/survival skills, watching videos(in my opinion) helps me learn better than reading. If you are stilling wanting to learn more about the basic skills from emergency preparedness all the way to survival, today we'll be going over some of the best YouTube channels of that nature.

THE URBAN PREPPER - Seattle, Washington

This YouTube channel features emergency preparedness topics and related gear reviews. Since he lives and works in the greater Seattle area, his focus is on 'Urban' preparedness and not on Rural environment-related concepts. His goal is to provide video content that is family-friendly, entertaining, and accessible to a wide audience. He works in software engineering, so many of the projects and gear testing that he uploads to YouTube leverage engineering skills; planning, organization, scientific method testing, and documentation. This channel has been around since 2011 and uploads/post about two videos every week. https://www.youtube.com/user/TheUrbanPrepper
