Top 20 SHTF most possible scenarios

Top 20 SHTF most possible scenarios

As I mentioned in previous articles, each prepper prepares for different collapse scenarios. Not everyone is preparing for all scenarios. It also depends on the location where the prepper lives. Some natural disasters do not occur in all parts of the world. Some are typical only for certain parts of the world. Some act only locally others may affect several countries, the continent, or the world. Some are unlikely and others have a real chance that they will.

I divided the following catastrophic scenarios into two basic groups. I divided scenarios of natural origin into the first group. Scenarios caused directly by humans are included in the second group. One may argue that some natural disasters are also caused by the long-term negative effects of man, but here we are not talking about who causes of disasters, but the reactions to them.

Some scenarios may only affect small areas or cities. Other disasters can affect an entire state, a continent, or the world.

The worldwide spread of the Covid-19 virus epidemic has shown us how deadly and fast the virus can be. We can expect that viral epidemics will be more frequent and perhaps more fatal in the world.

In the list below, you will not find scenarios that I think are either unlikely or unrealistic, but I know that there are groups of prepers who are also preparing for these events such as: Doomsday, invasion from space, zombie attack, etc.
