Survival or other myths, misconceptions known?

[Draygon]

Here are two myths I know:


Myth #1: Many human beings venomously bitten by an adult female black widow spider after you Draygon where born have died because of the venomous bite by an adult female black widow spider. False.



Myth #2: Absolutely zero cases of someone being venomously bitten by an adult female black widow spider after you Draygon were born has ever died because of the venomous bite by an adult female black widow spider.

False. There are ^ three known cases of such a venomous bite being fatal which I will tell in next post by me in this thread.

I don't know where you Draygon'ing me too.

But I add to the myths...
You can drink your urine in a survival situation (Bear grylls does this) - False You more likely to dehydrate yourself drinking urine..
what you actually want to do is pee into a container and make a solar still and evaporate the Water out of the PEE into a smaller container in the middle of the solar still.

I hear that horsehair ropes around your sleeping spot keep rattlesnakes out of your sleeping bag too!

Guess what?

We have this thing called a google search where you can get all kinds of information almost instantly without having to wait three days for someone to decide to make a post.

You go to google and type in "deaths due to black widow bites" and it gives you all kinds of information.

My own personal eby-jeby reaction is geared more toward the Brown Recluse family of arachnids. I personally know, or I should say knew, a couple of people that have died as a result of Brown Recluse bites. Not dying from the bite itself, but from kidney and liver failure as well as nerve damage as a result of the bite. In one case it took almost 5 years for the damage of the brown recluse bite to do its work, and in neither case was the spider given credit for the death.

Face or fiction.....
•The average human autopsy procedure in Chicago, IL will reveal roughly 250 small spiders living at points throughout the endocrine and circulatory systems. In New York, NY the average is upwards of 800.

•Did you know that millipedes were eventually just strings of dozens of spiders? Evolution changed them into the single animals we know today
