10 Prepper Mistakes You're Probably Making — And You Don't Even Know It

Mike spent $12,000 on survival gear. Forty-seven tactical knives. Three years of MREs. Eight water filtration systems. He was ready for anything.
Mike didn't survive Hurricane Helene.
Not because of the storm. Because of something already sitting in his garage — something millions of preppers have in theirs right now.
FEMA's 2024 data confirms it: 83% of Americans have taken preparedness actions. Only 51% feel genuinely ready. That 32-point gap isn't a confidence problem. It's a pattern. And it has a body count.
This video breaks down 10 critical prepper mistakes that turn your survival investment into a liability. We're not talking hypotheticals. We're talking documented failures — exposed by real disasters, real statistics, and real consequences that FEMA, the CDC, the CPSC, and the U.S. military have been tracking for decades.
Some of these mistakes are hiding in your garage tonight. Some are hiding in your pantry. One of them is hiding in your mirror. And the most dangerous one? You probably shared it over a backyard barbecue without thinking twice.
If you've spent money on emergency preparedness, food storage, bug out bags, water purification, or survival gear of any kind — this video is the audit you've been skipping.
Your preps aren't protecting you. Not yet.
