I'd you were dropped on an island with nothing but your clothing and what ever is on the island and no support, could you survive?

[worldscolide]

I might be able to, for a short time, but it would be a massive learning curve.

What about you? And be honest.

Minor notes, no access to modern tech, no electricity, think cave man style existence.

I don't think I could

I think I could.

[midnightmoon05]

Yeah.

i grew up living very primarily during the first 10 1/2 years of my childhood. Without running water, gas/electric stove, electricity…etc.

I went up to the mountains to look for berries and, roots to eat.
now.. I still know how and able to survive eating plans, berries…. prob. for a short time. I also know how to look for spring water.

The only thing missing is I don’t know how to make a fire.

[IslaTheWitch]

if the weather is not extreme so, I won't freeze, and there is access to fresh water and edible roots and fruits so I can survive until I invent proper tools for fishing and hunting... I should be fine :D

[lightbulb27]

As long as that island had a pizza place, cappuchino stand, a nice bathroom, all you can eat buffet, and a dentist, it be ok.

otherwise, am screwed...

[worldscolide]

Yeah I'm not sure I could live without pizza

[CheeseMonster]

I'm pretty confident I could survive. It would be miserable though, at least until I got used to dealing with the bugs/animals and the temperature.

[Agape93]

Ocean Island or fresh water island like in a lake or river?

[worldscolide]

Probably ocean. Bilut with either you'd need a way to purify the water.

[worldscolide]

Fml.. But.. I can't freaking spell

[Agape93]

Lol

True. But unless there's flint or something else, fire is hard to come by for boiling. I can do a solar still with a tarp or something. But most likely it'll be filtering fresh water through sand filled socks. Gross and not pure, but I'd rather a long term disease than dying in a day or two from thirst

[worldscolide]

Nothing wrong with that.

[Agape93]

Plus I can eat whenever I want with today's sponsor, raid shad- I'm just kidding lol

[worldscolide]

Lmao!! Or what was the meal service... Freshly or factor..

[Agape93]

Hello fresh? Hello factory sounds like a vibrator maker

[worldscolide]

I know right! Ew

[OneViewpoint]

Yes. I could be quite comfortable as long as there was a fresh water supply. Bored out of my mind but otherwise fine.

[Surely]

I would need a reference book to identify edible plants.

[zagor]

Kind of depends on the island. If it was rich in fruit and such could probably make it.

[AviatorTom]

I'd survive for a while, at least a few weeks, but not forever.

[Anonymous]

I might fare better than others but I doubt I'd survive.

[Kelly6]

@worldscolide maybe, only if I figure out how to filter what to drink

[CrisboOx]

At the very least, you could use your cloth, but the pathogens and other microparticles will still remain.

[Kelly6]

@CrisboOx still need a pot to boil it.

[CrisboOx]

But it's highly unlikely you'll come across a pot in such an Island.

[Kelly6]

@CrisboOx exactly

[CrisboOx]

That's why I said "At the very least".

[exitseven]

I could survive if there was drinking water.

[RedInnocent69]

Depends on the island
