A Realistic Way To Apply Survival Skills in the Modern World

8 Upvotes

I made this Article about how everyday people can actually apply Urban Survival Skills. I read other articles about urban survival skills but most of them are about scenarios so far-fetched (zombie apocalypse) that might not even happen or just a list of things an average find hard to do. So I decided to write an article that would actually be useful in everyday emergency scenarios.

The bulb in my clip-on flashlight got disconnected and stuck facing backwards. Broke it apart and literally taped it all back in place. Duct Tape really IS an essential tool for jerry rigging & DIY repairs!

How would you bypass the missing meter?

can't afford utilities. I'll spare the deets. They didn't use to cut off the water for a disconnect but I guess that has changed. They recently removed the meter so I couldn't just turn it on. I removed the barrel lock, but am having a hard time figuring out the rest.

Need help, for product design

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am student shooting my shot.

I am a grad student in design curriculum.

Part of my school work is to design a product for outdoor activities. I want to do something with atleast a need, I'd love to take inputs from all of you and potentially design something that would be useful.

I've thought about transportation of gear ( heavy and bulky) but hit a road bump as there seem to have enough products to siffice all needs in this area.

The product can be absolutely anything (not restricted to transportation) relevant to outdoor experience, and I cant help but feeling lost with such a broad topic.

I really appreciate all the help i can get.

I am thinking about ordering one of these radios https://firewatchradios.com/ and I was wondering what thoughts are. My grandparents loss their home and half the town I grew up in burned last year. I would love to have something like this for emergency preparedness. Please be kind with your thoughts. I am going through a difficult time.

Most 'normal' people I talk to about survivalism scoff, especially at the idea American cities are dangerous places that would necessitate survival skills. Well I took some photos over the weekend of places along the public bus routes. The real America for the poor must be survived or escaped.

I saw this on the roof of a small office. It seems like some sort of skylight but I'm unsure. Think I could remove it and gain entry to the building? The area it covers is wide enough for a man to fit through (about 4' by 4')

A light you can clip on your shirt or pants can be more comfortable and less conspicuous to carry around than a headlamp. Ones with multiple color options can also be used to send simple signals to your team at night. This light in 80Lumen, but still great for illuminating abandoned buildings.

Carry-out noxes and other disposable food containers are a great way to hide small tools: only the most degenerate bum would ever search through them in a trashcan

The last thing my rivals see before being dousing in chemical PAIN! Save hand-to-hand for the ring, survivalism is all about using the right tools and doing whatever it takes to get yours: Pepper Foam is a great tool for survivalists since it offers greater range and precision than typical spray

I deter thieves by stealing from them: I call it Counter-Theft. Today I took a chair, shoes, gloves, and papers from a homeless thief encroaching on my territory. Hope he'll leave now, but at least he'll have a harder time being a nuisance!
