It is total pain reading such poorly composed text. Please make your teachers proud next time.

Now aren't you being just a wee bit nitpicky? You don't need to know how to type or write to survive in the woods. I believe the kid has some experience. He's not perfect, but neither are the rest of us. I think he is off to a good start and wish him luck.

Just for starters, can you name/describe the 42 different shelters you know how to make? :innocent:

yes it is jst very time consuming and not all of them have names seeing that i built and tested some myself includeing some like hollowing out a live tree and an A-Frame and a pit shelter plus some cave shelters:bat:

EDIT: and yes im TOTALLY serious i love survival its jst something about me i watch all the shows (but Survivorman and Man vs Wild are a little staged) and i have some experiance seeing me my dad and my grandfather were stranded in canada for 1 week and a half longer then we had intended sooooo i learned ALOT and iv been thinking about testing myself like this for some time now

Actually there are only a few categories of shelters, your ignorance is showing!:cool2:

Everybody loves "survival" as "not surviving" equals death! We have many "Survival Instructors" here; maybe they can advise you!:cool2:

I've read the book & have the movie; it's "ok", but remember that the kid in the story did NOT go out to INTENTIONALLY put himself in danger, & it was a work of fiction with a writer keeping his character safe. You need to study real life survival stories & get a "reality check" dude!:cool2:

ANSWER: NO! According to your title under your screen name you're trying to come off as an expert at 14, that is if your not just yanking our chain! If you're not putting us on then your very immature & unwise. "Survival Experts" do not come on here and ask for "tips", they give tips! You're also arguing with members that are much more equipped & have much more knowledge than you! That's just plain stupid!:cool2:

You're to young for a .44 & you have to be 18 to get edged weapons through the mail Mr. Expert"!:cool2:

Good thing Sarge decided he liked this kid, or he really might have ripped him a new one.
