Reddit Survival Tips

Yeah, yeah, I know... 'reddit.'

But these are good atypical survival tips that you might not know some of.

Ones I liked and need to make more at the front of my survival mind:


  • The STAR symbol on the elevator panel indicates the floor that is the most direct route to outside.  I usually know this, but could be helpful in strange building that have weird mezzanies and shit.
  • If you are ever involved in gunfire or a shooting of any sort, a sharp cracking sound means the gunfire is aimed at you, a deep thumping noise means the gunfire is aimed away from you.  Why did none of you ever mention this?  I know some of you have been down range and heard it personally. 
  • Anything standing it’s ground and being loud just wants you to leave. If you don’t they will attack. When they are relatively quiet they have already decided to attack.  This applies to people, too.
  • Pack a whistle.
  • Barrel cactus insides aren't what they are cracked up to be as a water source, despite what Race Bannon told you about surviving in the desert.
  • Very rarely are people mentally prepared to fight a naked man. I need to remember to wear more tear-away clothes for quick strip downs.
  • Garage door springs are not your friend..

Deep thumping noise also means subsonic rounds like in the .45 ACP or the 147 grain 9mm
