View Full Version : Survival-Take the Test

I got only 10 out of 17. I am barely alive according the the scoring gurus! Good thing is, most of my right answers came under the Natural Disasters section, which happens more often than shark attacks or terrorists around here!

The test sounds like it was made up by a liberal. For example, the one about the dog. There is nothing in there about taking your folding hunter out and gutting the dog while he's occupied with your arm. I didn't bother with the other questions. 'WAYYYY too liberal.
Hmmm, this is one that I didn't put politics in. I also didn't know whether to believe the answers, so I give myself 100 % anyway!

Take a look at the Stockholm Syndrome question dealing with terrorists, and you trying to humanize yourself to them, instead of planning an escape.
I would be a crazed fit during most of the situations, guaranteed I would not survive. During the tornado issue though, I have been trained for that my whole life. I hope a tornado is the only survival situation I ever have to deal with.
Not a lot of sharks or terrorists in Ohio anyway.
Sorry to post something dippy though :)

Melz, I didn't think it was dippy, but then again i only scored 11, so I am maimed, although, thankfully, still alive and willing to teach others from my misfortune.
Apparently, I need to learn something about gutting dogs as they are eating my arm. I will look around for an adult education course here in Fort Lauderdale. Thanks for the tip.

You Scored: 12 out of 17
You're alive ... but badly injured or maimed for life. With a little effort, you, too, can be an extreme survivor.
I didn't miss any of the terrorist questions (guess that comes from being the daughter of a cop, I don't know), I missed some of the dog and shark questions (which surprised me, alot!), didn't miss any of the tornado ones at all ... we gots lost o'that bad weather stuff down here, so we all pretty much been taught what to do about that, LOL.

Try standing still if a pit bull or Rottweiler approaches you with a stalking gait. Especially with little kids in tow.http://freeconservatives.com/smilies/spank.gif
You will stand still and nonchalantly while the little rugrats are scrambling around being torn to pieces?

Exactly! I missed that one ... I have NEVER been told to just stand still when a menacing dog is approaching. I KNOW you don't look them in the eyes, and you don't back away (or run away), so I thought the right answer would be to throw something to distract them. I grew up around a canine cop (my dad's partner, a German Shepherd, when I was a youngster), and I have owned several dobermans, a mastiff, a bull terrior, and currently own a rottweiler, I am familiar with big dogs with vicious reputations.*
In any case, I do not go out walking without some sort of protection (my pistol, or a big walking stick -- I also have pepper spray), so I'm not counting that answer against myself, LOL.
*As a side note, we will soon be adding a new member to our family, as we are getting an American Bulldog as soon as my husband's cousin's dog has her pups! We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our new bundle of joy, and I'll post pics as soon as he arrives (we want a boy).

I think I scored the lowest. This test is hypothetical and probably based on things that happen to stupid people or what happens in the movies. It assumes that you're a real dumbass who doesn't take precautions to ensure your protection if you're alone and that you shouldn't follow expert instructions from those who have been trained to help you during certain emergencies.
For example, with the silly airplane questions, you're supposed to listen to the pilot and/or flight attendants. You don't do jack until they tell you.
