you realize that you’re all alone on a desert island. What will you do first?
Your top priorities should be safety, water, shelter and food. This is the only correct order. Look around and find something that you can use to defend yourself. Is this place safe? Are there wild animals here? Is there a risk of floods? Creating the conditions for your safe existence here is the main step.
I will be shouting and calling for help
I will make a fire to send a distress signal
I will look around to make sure this place is safe
I will go to sleep. Morning is the best counselor
What’s the most important thing you should find first?
Most people begin to look for food. However, statistics say that almost every “lost” person is found within several days or even hours. It’s possible to stay alive for 2 week without food. Yet, you can stay alive for 3-4 days if you have no water.
Some food
Source of water
A friend to keep you company
Something that can be used as a weapon
Which of these things is the best kind of food?
The best and the most reliable source of food is bugs. Yes, you read it right! Bugs can be found everywhere, and they contain lots of protein.
Berries that look edible
Raw meat
Insects and bugs
You’re dying from thirst, yet you have no water. What will you do?
Collecting rain water is a great option if it’s raining or going to rain. Collection dew is a good option for a humid climate of tropics or in case of great fluctuations of daily and night temperatures.
I’ll be drinking water from the sea, there’s plenty of it
I will be eating more to distract my body from thirst
I will try to collect rain water or get it from condensation
Where will you build your shelter?
Build a shelter on the elevations close to the center of the island. It will protect you from floods in case of storms, heavy rains and high tides.
close to the center of the island
At the foot of the mountain
Closer to the beach
In a lowland

Bright clothes
Loud shouting
Fire

It’s better to use a sharp stick for self-defense. It will be useful to protect yourself from wild animals and some dangerous insects, like scorpions. This simple device can be also used for fishing.

Sharp stick
Long log
What’s the best place for fishing?
If you plan to go fishing, choose shallow water to avoid meeting large predatory fish.
In shallow water
Somewhere deep
At the place with cold currents
Where water is warm
what can help you to make a fire with big smoke?
Signal fires are a great option. Keep in mind that people can notice smoke during the day and fire at night. If you want to make lots of smoke, be sure to add leaves into your fire (the more, the better). Such a signal will definitely attract attention from water and from air.
Wet wood
Clothes
Plenty of leaves
Making fire with the use friction technique
What will you do in order not to lose your mind?
I’ll make a plan for each day, will be doing something useful
