These Random Facts Could Help You Survive a Dire Situation
We spend most of our time living lives of
low-risk, shuffling between our homes and our workplaces, and making few
stops along the way. Though that significantly reduces the chances of
ever facing life-threatening situations, it still never hurts to be
prepared and preparation can come in all shapes and forms. Despite the
instinct to carry a weapon and considering our lack of access to James
Bond-esque gadgets, our best defense against any kind of serious
situation is knowledge. Information is power, and all that jazz.
Every crime-drama on television is peppered
with clever characters miraculously making their way out of terrifying
traps using nothing but a flashlight and a paper clip. You never know
what information could be your trick to surviving an unexpected threat,
being trapped in the wilderness, a virulent illness, or even the end of
the world. These random facts are just what you need to live out your
