      They go through extraordinary effort to make the people seem crazy - it's part of the appeal of the show. But, some of them clearly are. I still can't stop laughing at one of the first episodes where the jackass shoots himself in the hand. I can't understand how much stupidity that requires.

        This

        I think alot of it is played up for TV but I'm sure most of those people really live that way. I can see prepping for some situations but some of this stuff I'm not sure I would want to survive through. If there is a nuclear attack I will be driving towards the bomb not away from it. I don't want to live life like Fallout 3!

          But the truth is like many reality shows - the real preppers (the real deal) are not going to go on a national network's television network to show the whole world how, why, and where their shit is stored. So take it for what it's worth, a watered town, over hyped, over edited sensationalized TV show.

            I just watched the first episode and laughed my ass off at the chick that lived in the apartment. Come on, does she really work out 4 hours a day? That 12 mile ruck beat her ass, took her 6 hours to complete, and had to change her socks. Maybe if she didn't walk through water puddles she wouldn't have that problem. And looked like she had been planning for a while yet she had no idea what she was doing with a gun or had a route to get out of that shithole called Houston. I haven't had this much fun since watching hoarders.
