Do you own a survival kit?

Asked by kurthp (8points) October 9th, 2014

It can be any level, size or weight. For instance, it can be as simple and small as a bag you carry in your car, or it could be a rucksack.

Yes, mine says Cuervo Especial on the side. I don’t know how I survived before I found it.

I do. But just because I live in the part of the country prone to earthquakes. I am not a wacko EMP pulse kills Jesus prepper.

I keep enough stashed away I could eat and drink for a few weeks. And some common sense things like a hand powered radio, fire-steel, and a sleeping bag rated for colder than it will ever get here.

No. If the Zombie Apocalypse happens tomorrow I’m doomed.

Yep! But you knew that already.

I have one in every car and in two places in the house. I can survive for a loooong time.

No, but I have developed my body and mind with survival in mind. I maintain my fitness, train in the martial art most commonly used on the modern battlefield, periodically deprive my body of food/water/sleep to improve my resilience, walk and run barefoot on rough and uneven surfaces, sleep on the floor from time to time, and have learned to largely ignore pain. I don’t have supplies, because I think the chances of needing them are negligibly small, but if I was required to survive in a harsh environment I’d still have a fighting chance.

My home is also right near the shops, so if lawless looting became necessary I’d get there first.
