Physical hazards are almost definitely going to be an issue in an urban survival situation and the urban prepper should be aware of and prepare to encounter them during their survival preparations. Some of the primary physical hazards that may be encountered can be downed (live) electrical lines, large pools of water, or fallen buildings. Also be on the lookout for fires, falling debris, and wreckage in the streets. Remember: cities are composed almost entirely of concrete, steel, and glass. When a disaster happens in an urban environment, these three things all become huge obstacles that must be overcome. Preparing for physical hazards can be, first and foremost, a matter of knowing what to expect. Cars will likely be jamming the streets, building debris and glass may be on the streets. If there are fires going on somewhere close, there may be ash or coals on the streets as well. In any event, expect the unexpected. In an ideal situation, the urban prepper will have an outfit ready to go that will take into account all of the physical environmental hazards that may be encountered. A pair of good steel-toed boots, a pair of sturdy cargo pants, a nice and thick cotton undershirt, and a good leather jacket are all good choices. Steel-toed boots can prevent damage to the feet from debris underfoot or from damage from falling objects.
