The Rules of 3: Surviving any Situation
Remember the Rules of 3:
·
You
can survive 3 hours without shelter;
·
you can survive 3 days without water;
·
and you can survive 3 weeks without food;
An
extension to the classic Rules of 3 is one can survive 3 minutes without air,
but overall it is easier to remember the basic principles.
These
generalizations can give you a good idea of how to prioritize your actions in
an extreme situation, such as getting lost in the woods.
