Who thought cramps could kill? Well, in this case they can. So first of all you need to float on your back to ensure that water doesn’t get into your lungs. Then, try to stretch your cramp by pulling your leg towards you or wait until it subsides.
If possible try to float on your back the same as we did for the cramp. If your head is below water then try not panic and conserve oxygen. Using your hand slide it down along your legs until you can get the algae off of you. Remember that struggling can make things a lot worse.

Ok, this is very survivable. First, do not run to the bathroom! If you are in public, stay in public. Yes, we know, its embarrassing, but if you pass out you want people to see you. Second, if there is no one around you need to do the heimlich maneuver on yourself. This means slamming your stomach against a solid object like a chair…hard! The goal is to get the air in your stomach to compress and force the object out of your throat. If you only compress half-way then some air may escape with the food still in there. This would make consecutive attempts much more difficult.
First of all, don’t reach out for anything! It could easily start a rockslide (too late? Then go back to #1). Press your chin to your chest. Your head is important and you want to make sure it stays with your body right? If possible try to use your feet as breaks, and if not, you’ll be at base camp momentarily.

After reading about the 25 most dangerous animals you should be aware of the dangers in being stung by one of these jellies. Get to shore immediately and spread sand over the stingers. Once it has dried out use a credit card or something similar to scrape out the stingers in one stroke. Whatever you do don’t rub them! This could cause more toxins to be released.
pff Nuclear explosion İ got a quick solution for that go in a country that has nothing to do whit Korea…. trust me it will work
What about a vampire trying 2 eat you..that could happen and here are some tips for that Grab some sharp wood and stab the dang vampire ….IN YO FACE
A lot of these are NOT good to listen to. NEVER attempt to escape from a hostage situation. The first few moments when they say you should try are always the MOST DANGEROUS! And don’t even get me started on the zombie apocalypse one…
In situation number five, “attacked in an elevator” they left out the most important part of why you want to be by the control panel… press as many floor buttons as possible so that the elevator will stop and the doors will open! You have a better chance of escaping as well as potential for witnesses/help… also, hit the fire alarm button! People are more interested in saving their own butts rather than get involved in an assualt situation!!!
Good survival tips. I really, really, really hope I never have to used any of them.
At falls over 5,000 feet it is better to hit concrete than water. Water absorbs all the shock directly as you hit the surface, you will bounce off of concrete, having a shorter moment of force
this is false. Mythbusters proved that hitting concrete is 27x worse than hitting watter from any high or distance.
you dont know shit kev. just cuz mythbusters said it’s busted doesnt mean they’re right. my friend committed suicide off a bridge and hit the concrete just before the water. his head hit tthe curb and the video showed him bouncing 6 times before laying to rest. he fell for 70 feet. 1st bounce he was up 15 fucking feet. damn you
um….that was a little rude Ray. We are all entitled to our opinions. I’m not saying you are wrong, but i’m not saying you are right either.
I may be wrong, but if you’re close enough to see a nuclear explosion, covering your head and hitting the floor will do absolutely nothing.
lol Just get under your desks, kids! Desks generate magical force fields that will protect you, we promise.
hahaha ok then
The best way to survive is don’t be near the place it came from, lol
