The Looters Survival Guide


When society collapses I have a feeling Ikea will be pretty low down on my list of shops to loot. Still, It's good to know their cheap wooden paraphernalia can also save lives.

My looting list:

1. Gun Shop
2. Supermarket
3. Outdoor Shop
4. Petrol Station
5. Hardware Store
6. Off Licence
7. Gun Shop

After reading Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road' I have decided Guns are a necessary evil in the war against cannibalism.

On a more relevant note. I have managed to start a fire with sticks but this guy makes it look easy. I now like to carry my firesteel with me whenever I am likely to need fire. It's also good to know that if pushed you can start a fire with ice.

And here are some other methods of firestarting..

Thanks to @FellowCreative for tweeting me the video at the beginning of this post.
