    I have some queer vacation resort advert lol.

    this nissan advert is so childish

    @oblivion292

    Id say its easier for a civilisation to go extinct where there is so much specialisation, 90% dont know how to grow food.

    Especially with the questionable morality of modern man…

  • qbthething:

    dont be stupid…u can drink salt water if your not thirty, but if ur thirsty it will kill you instantly…

  • matszz:

    You can actually …
    You can actually drink sea water, a french scientist did an experiment with it. The body can absord an ammount of salt per day. Its not alot, but you can drink 2 dl of sea water per day safely. Look up that exact ammount if you’re planning to do it cause im not 100% sure on how much you can drink.

  • abigor315:

    yes so bad humans …
    yes so bad humans are relying on things we accomplished thanks to our huge brains… oh how stupid we are..

  • TheZefMan:

    That would just …
    That would just remove any form of economy. You’re stupid.

  • oblivion292:

    A little too late …
    A little too late for that… Can’t fish for anything in our polluted waters and where Im from (New York) our land is so infertile. Modern life isn’t that bad though.. its only downside is that it turned us all lazy. Just remember back thousands of years ago it was a miracle for a person to live to be 30 and it was easier for entire civilzations to go extinct ie the ancient egyptians, romans, greeks, Incas myans etc.

  • thrashmantim:

    what about the …
    what about the amish? they don’t count as humans?

  • reforest4fertility:

    Yes, when something …
    Yes, when something has as clearly failed as practically all we see, then scrap & start over. How much more convincing should be needed? But for the intransigence from those relatively few for whom this clear failure serves. Many people are starting subsistence “victory gardens”. More farmer’s markets are sprouting. So the people are starting 2 change positively as we can see more negative change take hold too. But how do we form positive critical mass, or shall we just count the ways?

  • MultiZephyr:

    Continued…. …
    Continued…. Humans are in lazy mode relying on computers, cars and other things we really dont need and we’re forgetting about what is really important. Just remember that w/o a planet we cant live. The least of our worries are recession and swine flu.These are other cases of human error that could have been avoided.

  • MultiZephyr:

    Some ppl are naive …
    Some ppl are naive to think that theyre gonna be old when it comes time to need these skills so they dont care. Thats what is going to force us into a state of survival which we’re already in if you think about it, just as we’re already in a state of WWIII except that it isnt human vs human, its human vs human vs nature. We’re quickly running out of resourses and nature is fighting back by changing all of its patterns and we are fighting each other for what is left.

  • DeadlyVeggie:

    quick and easy fix …
    quick and easy fix for our economy: demolish our cities and live off the land.

    we did it for thousands of years, didn’t do us any harm… quite the opposite in fact.

  • reforest4fertility:

    I was only saying …
    I was only saying how & that we take water for granted, not to mention air. If we take care of ourselves then we keep a strong immune system & don’t leave ourselves susceptible. Then re the recession, we people need to work together starting an along-the-ground economy, rise up in participation building the economy from the bottom up, implementing sustainable alternatives, so then not just yielding to their imposing their usual top-down disasters-waiting-to-happen.

  • davylove21:

    yeeeeeeeeeeeah but …
    yeeeeeeeeeeeah but I’ll be too old to care when that kicks off, the biggies right now are swine flu and recession, get in line!

  • reforest4fertility:

    I’ll just remind or …
    I’ll just remind or inform people with that forests are our source of, and maintain our stores of, fresh water. Yes, we’re experiencing more rapid desertification of our lands than we realize, just as most of us are oblivious to the rate we’re dehydrating as we careen thru life. We tend to take water 4 granted, tho our need for it ranks a close 2nd to our need for air. Since we can fast from food, & it has a healing effect, tho it ranks a distant 3rd in our skewed hierarchy of needs.

    you’re such an unsavoury character.

  • unsavourycharacter:

    Watch Bear gay boy grylls then.

  • lennoxlude:

    it’s a fight for …
    it’s a fight for survival, you got to think of having nothing when you fight for survival so he should show how to make one from scratch.

    like i said i bet everyone who has been stranded wish they had the chance to have such gear on them becaue the chances are you would forget to take it after all the panicking.

    soon he’ll be in the jungle with burgers and chips with his cooking gear showing people how to survive in a deserted island. you have nothing, that’s what you got to think.

  • DocGreen15:

    My god! Who …
    My god! Who cares you sad cunt!

  • DocGreen15:

    Thing is though, …
    Thing is though, you only hear about the one’s stranded because they are the one’s who didn’t have these types of things and were ill prepared!

    Obviously you could create something similar to that bag divide, all it is, is evaporation?

    If you don’t plan, it’s not Rays fault he didn’t show you how to magic water without using any tools at all, in the middle of the ocean!

  • Photobyke:

    Yeah, but he …
    Yeah, but he outlined the problems about drinking seawater and the survival situations connected with being stranded at sea and then drew our attention to the fact that there are these things available. If your boat sinks and you are in a raft, then you should have one in your raft, right? It’s not like you can’t afford one if you own a yacht.

  • listeel:

    Which is why you’d …
    Which is why you’d keep one in a life raft such as this, or about your person in a pre-packed survival bag.

  • pilgor87:

    I went walkin in …
    I went walkin in the sun tday with my stepdad, And half way through i felt horrible. Still feel a lil dizzy and weak but ive been drinking alot of water and it seems to help. DRINK WATER itll only take a second

  • lennoxlude:

    why would you have …
    why would you have any equipement. if your boat sunk, then i’m sure you will have nothing. fighting for survival is that, fighting with nothing, creating your own inventions to use, not a massive advantage piece of equipement like that. it was a massive advantage. i bet anyone stranded on a boat would of loved having one of them, but they never had that luxury.
