Old Jan 6th, 2010, 02:35 PM        Survival Guides
Anyone read any good ones? Personally I'd like to learn about what plants are eatable, what wood (if burned) will kill me, and perhaps some herbs for basic illnesses.

Another one I want to find is one based on world apocalypse survival (not a zombie survival guide ). Which reminds me, I have to put together an earthquake kit for my gf's house.

helpful hint the only kind of wood that will kill you when burned is the kind that has "t.n.t." written on the side

never take wood from an anthropomorphic rabbit, guys

Some Hawaiian told me that every year white people die on the beach from burning wood from a ****** tree. I forget what tree it is though.

also apparently the leaves of the yew tree are hell of toxic so if those got burnt along with the wood the smoke might be pretty nasty

I've heard eucalyptus is poisonous to burn, but I see it in lots of wood bundles so I don't really believe it, probably the leaves or something.

I've read a few books over the years about survival, and I am pretty confident that I could last several hours by myself in the bush.

Well, from memory, the best one was a British SAS guide. Had lists of poisonous plants etc, detailed guides of how to build shelter.

I guess there are probably quite a few on the market, but British SAS worked for me.

Does anyone watch Man versus Wild, or Born Survivor with Bear Grylls? Not really a book, but...



I like to laugh at how EXTREME he makes everything out to be; every snake is the most venomous, every temperature is either scorching or freezing, and every plant has a story that he heard where it killed 26 tourists who ate it.

He is ex-SAS, and he does pretty well for himself.

He is a bit of a joke, really. I like to scoff at how little water he apparently survives on.

Sucking on the dew from a rock before going on about how the body needs 15 liters of water a day in situations such as these.
