Grid Down, Power Up | The Documentary

This documentary investigates and follows the trail of information surrounding threats that the US national power grid faces right now.

Dennis Quaid hosts an alarming look into the potential of life without power. A dynamic legion of energy, economic, national security, and infrastructure experts fearlessly expose our most critical global threat: the vulnerability of our nation's power grids. Together they inform the public of imminent threats, and the infinite horrors in store from prolonged power loss. Buckle down and power up with this series of shocking scenarios. Natural disasters and weather phenomena are only one facet in the frightening scope of future failures. An orchestrated physical attack, electromagnetic pulse (EMP), cyber-attack, or geomagnetic disturbance (GMD) could shut down our electric grid for a year; or longer. This is a Global, humanitarian issue, not a political one; if something is not done we will inevitably find ourselves in the dawn of a new Dark Age. Watch “Grid Down Power Up” for more information to understand how you can help solve this problem; and protect our power.

The biggest danger on the energy front is our homegrown Green extremists and the political opportunists using control over energy to control us.

Narrated by Dennis Quaid? Cool! I also like his brother Randy’s new documentary titled “Shitter’s Full, Don’t Light ‘Em Up!”

Without Hydrocarbons (Oil, Gas, Coal), and renewed nuclear power, millions (perhaps even billions), will die of starvation in the next few years. Perhaps that is the plan of the Eugenicists New World Order that the WEF is perfecting.

I’ve seen the movie and met the producer. It’s a solid, factual movie.

I’m a lot more concerned about the vulnerability of your grid than I am about global warming 50 years from now.

A NEW PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE ORDER MUST BE ISSUED

Followed by a Department of Energy Emergency Order that mandates electric grid protection against all known threats managed by a single leader.


Wooh Bosss.

I'm not into mandates today, had my fill for the rest of my life.

And a single leader answering to whom? The President of the USA? Look what a mess we have there right now.

Preparedness is great, but I don't trust DC. And would prefer to Trust the State of Texas in my location.

So the thing to do is switch to cars which get their energy from the power grid?

Just in case we purchased a 5500 watt inverted dual fuel generator. It will totally run our 38 ft travel trailer including AC. Right after we got it a storm came through and knocked out the power in the middle of the night. By the time I got up in the morning Mr. GG2 had the fridge plugged in and the coffee pot going. It was great. Now we don’t worry so much about the grid.

Prepper ping - Who do you trust when the Grid goes down ? What can you do now to prevent the grid crashing from an EMP ?
Without electricity, life as we know it, will cease to exist , especially if protections aren't implemented soon !
Over stretched and outdated, and increasingly more demands constantly being made, it is only a matter of time before the grid collapses,
or is exposed to sabotage, or exposed to an EMP

Green power generation, EVs, and more complexity added to the system is perfect if you want the worst scenario possible.

I suggest you read his two non-fiction titles-

Survival Theory and
Survival Theory 2.

It WILL alter your thinking for the better.

... SERE (Evasion, Resistance, and Escape)...


Back in my day, SERE was *Survival*, Evasion, Resistance and Escape.

When did that change?
