Off Topic Basic survival

[Tel (they/them)]

Could you live in the wild?

I was watching a show called The Wheel, and thinking about whether I'd manage to survive alone in extreme places.

Anybody ever hunted and survived in the wild for a few days?

Is that where 83 has maybe gone? 83 in a forest, deerhunting.

I reckon I could catch a slow animal, like a hedgehog and eat it if necessary.

I have in the past.
All part of the training.
Couldn't do it now.

Nope, couldn't do it, but if needs must and I was put in a situation where I had no choice, maybe I would surprise myself.

Alone Bill or part of a team exercise?

I'd like to think I'd thrive in sort of mild conditions, but I might just **** myself to death, if that's possible.

Anything extreme, I'd either freeze or fry to death.

Inevitable death in most cases.

You'd have to fashion a way to make Stella out of rain water and one shoe.

Using my shoe as makeshift bivvy bag.

I e&e as recruits we went off in pairs.

You're never more than 200 yards from a Tesco nowadays, it'd be far easier to survive in modern times.

I camp a few times a year and am a fairly handy fisherman...

Is what my old man would say.

I'd die.

In your neck of the woods every ****ing thing wants to eat you, bite you, sting you and basically kill you.

Especially the kangaroos.

Skippy was a ****. Until a git big 4x4 wiped the smug twat out.

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

As kids we used to head off into the woods to build a den. A couple tins of beans and a pack of embassy and no-one would see us for days!
Wouldn't last an afternoon now though!

 

[Burly Hurley]

Unless the Wild is a 4 or 5 star hotel I don't think I'd survive a night in it!

Did mine on Dartmoor marra... just a couple of weeks, so not too bad!
Norwegian Fjords for a couple of months with the 'Cloggies' were a killer
