There are people who make even the raw beginners around here look good.

Mila Kunis admits she would need Bear Grylls of "Man vs. Wild" to survive a post-apocalyptic world. The actress recently told Parade Magazine that despite her tough appearance in the post-apocalyptic movie "The Book of Eli", she is unsure whether she could survive the the real-life scenario.

Confessing she would fail miserably should she is left out alone to stay alive, the 26-year-old actress said, "I would need what's his name, Bear Grylls, who does that survival show Man vs Wild. I would need him with me because I wouldn't know what to eat." She continued on saying, "I would be the first to eat the wrong thing because I wouldn't know it was poisonous. So I'm not a survivalist."

When asked about what kind of survival aids she would hold onto if such world existed, the "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" actress put toilet paper on her must-have list. "Could I have toilet paper? Does that count? I'd like deodorant. And Chapstick would be good. I'd really want Chapstick. But, I would put toilet paper number one on my list," she revealed.


Not that she's wrong about the TP. But that's not the first item on my list.
 
Naw, she needs me. She just doesn't know it yet. :D I wouldn't even make her eat bugs, at least not while they're still squirming, or squeeze a few drops of "water" out of fresh dung. :thumbup:
 
I have chapstick in my kit, but all the chapstick has been removed and PJCB's have been put in its place. Pretty cool, you can spin the dial and it actually pushes the PJCB's out :D
 
I think TP offers a function for girls beyond arse wipe. Besides not clotting up a sock fewer ants and less likely to attract predators.

More than nuff said.
 
Mila should spend a couple weeks with me. I can teach her all she needs to know about survival.




















Actually that's not true, but she should still spend a couple weeks with me.

Putting aside the young ladies looks for a moment :eek: , the bolded comment raises an interesting discussion point.

Is it important to know about edible plants and their products for long term survival? If so, how many here on this forum (whose focus is "Wilderness & Survival Skills") possess this knowledge?

Now remember we are talking about long term survival & not just for an "average of three days".

I'm interesting in reading the opinion of others on this :thumbup:




Kind regards

In central and south Florida, where I live, I'm very confident in my foraging abilities as long as I'm able to avoid the rampaging hordes for those first few days, or at least long enough to secure myself comfortably in the middle of the swamp. In other parts of the country, I would admittedly have a much tougher go of things.
 
I think for long term survival it is definitely important to know as much about food sources as possible. For short, 72hr or less, scenarios, knowledge of edible plants and such is a benefit, but not necessarily a necessity. I think for the short term survival situation, knowing a few common medicinal plants would be even more beneficial.
 
Mick, a very good point. Doc in Canada studies wild plant foods as do several others like Mewolf. I don't so much study them as remember the ones local to me that I grew up eating and using for medicine. Yes, I've been lazy and not expanded my knowledge. I eat poke salet every spring, use sassafrass root and leaves, inner bark of willow, some berries I am familiar with, use mullin and lambs quarters, cattail root and a few more. But I haven't taken time to really learn to recognize many of the important edibles and medicinals around me. I really sit up and pay attention when these subjects come up here, but I haven't really put in the field time to make it stick for me.

Give her my number...... Tell her we have ALOT in common!

My daypack.....

Now that's funny right there. :D But what do you do if it gets wet? Mila surely wouldn't be happy...

You might have more of it but I keep mine vacuum sealed along with 6tampons. I think I win! :rolleyes: :)

But do you have 7000 tubes of Chapstick in your daypack?
 
Seriously........ If folks think of Bear and his antics as survival...... there is a big problem. You could learn more just watching the "After Armageddon" show that did a good job of showing what would probably happen after a pandemic than viewing multiple shows in Bear's series. AG... treating dirty water, eating a snake for nourishment - BG, drinking his own urine and crawling inside a camel's carcass for shelter??
