Why You Can Trust Us
Secrets of Survival has been around since 2002 (almost 20 years) and our survival knowledge is the real deal. We were writing and discussing survival and prepping before people even knew what the word “prepping” meant. We also preceded the trendiness of survival media nowadays… for example, we were arround before Bear Grylls filmed his first episode of Man vs Wild.Our contributors and writers over the years have included survival experts of all stripes – including a Green Beret Special Forces Medic, a former Navy SEAL, a leading survival instructor who’s been featured on National Geographic and PBS. Every article is either written or reviewed by someone who is an expert in either survivalism, prepping, or homesteading (or all three) and our goal is to be as practical and educational as possible.
While some of our writers and contributors use pseudonyms in order to protect their privacy (never a bad idea in these times where out of control surveillance is a growing problem), you can trust that everybody who gets to write for us has been vetted for their knowledge and passion when it comes to survival.

It’s interesting to think that burglaries are more common than muggings! Up to this point, I thought I was so safe at work. After reading your article, though, I want to make sure that we can all be protected in the event of a burglary. I’ll be sure to keep your tips in mind as I search for self-defense classes near me!
I guess I am on Binge Mode as the articles of this site are super-useful. I always had a survival mentality, but the onset of COVID-19 has forced me to take this stuff more seriously. Thanks a lot.
