Default End of the World Survival Skills and Tools Required

I was watching District 9 this past weekend and wondered if I'd be ready for an extinction level event or an Alien invasion in which my survival depended on how much I knew about the world around me.

This scene from Rambo came to mind followed by a ton of rhetorical questions:



Skills required:


Know how to:

  • Hot wire a car
  • Administer your own IV ( know ingredients needed for solution)
  • Give yourself needle injections
  • Start a fire
  • Butcher a hog and preserve a fresh kill
  • Kill a bear and wear it's fur
  • CPR
  • Filter water
  • Trap Bush-meat
  • Fish
  • Dig a foxhole
  • Distinguish plant types (for medicine and food)
  • Climb a tree
  • Rappel down a hillside
  • Breathe through a wooden blowhole
  • Use a bow and arrow
  • Skin a rabbit or squirrel
  • Build a makeshift tent of wood and leaves
  • Shoot a gun
  • Basic bartering for goods
  • Basic electronics and wiring
  • Use Morse code
  • Speak another language (preferably Spanish)
  • Simple carpentry and mechanics
  • Garden / skills
  • Make rope from wild vines
  • Swim
  • Make clothes and shoes from leaves and plants

Items needed


  • Potassium Iodide pills that will protect you if you are exposed to harmfull radiation.
  • Emergency Survival Sleeping Bag
  • Survival style backpack:
  • Large and small knife
  • Longterm food stuff (7 yr shelf life)
  • Gun & Bullets (until you run out)
  • Hand crank power generated flashlight and radio
  • Bow and Arrow
  • Mini collapsable Army shovel
  • Mace
  • Rope Mosquito Spray
  • Tourniquet
  • Codine / Aspirin / Morphine


I'm sure there's other things you can add to the list.

Be prepared because I know I'm not. I know how to barter, swim, and shoot a gun. That's pretty much it for me. I'd be a dead man in no time. It's time I learned to acquire some down to earth useful skills.

All I know is that when the shit hits the fan I'm grabbing 50 friends and neighbors and making a beeline for the nearest Walmart to barricade and use as base for my colony.

It has everything you need to ride out the first few weeks and prepare for the rest of your life.

Food
Water
Pharmaceuticals
Tools
and most importantly, GUNS AND AMMO...lots of it.
