James Mandeville spent 23 years training elite
soldiers how to survive in demanding environments. More Intel on
James
There is an old maxim taught in survival schools:
"You can survive 3 minutes without oxygen, 3 days without water and
3 weeks without food." But without knowing what you are doing, without
knowing your options and without a survival plan your chances of survival
are down to rock bottom.
I taught military personnel how to survive without equipment, teaching
them to improvise and adapt to their surroundings. Your psyche is the
best survival tool you possess. The human body and mind is, for the
most part, far more resilient than most people realise. We can take
a lot of psychological and physical neglect and punishment but only
for a short period of time, after which, we rapidly decline or suffer
long-term ill-health as a result of our ordeal. The greatest threats
to physical survival are serious injury; exposure to the elements; lack
of water and starvation. How these four threats are combined has a critical
bearing on one's survival time. The length of time anyone can survive
these threats depends upon the physical condition of the person at the
outset (fitness, electrolyte levels, degree of hydration, percentage
of body fat and severity of any injury), geographical location and the
strength of your psyche.
Some people have a natural ability to improvise, other have to learn
how to improvise. In a survival situation, whatever kit you have with
you, you will still need to improvise and have detailed survival knowledge
to give you the best chance of making it back to safety.
Survive Anywhere is a powerhouse of survival information, read it, learn
from it and you will vastly enhance your chances of survival wherever
you find yourself.
