    Default Survival

    Your mission: Make a fire and heat up a can of vienna weinies. You may pick four items to use out in the woods, sans electrical outlets.

    I would have a knife (sharp),a match (flammable), a can of coca cola(aluminum), a can of vienna weinies (steel), and a bottle of my favorite household flammable vapor (large, flammable). My dad showed me how to cut a coke can to make an alcohol burner. You cut the can in half (I think you have to not open it, but you can drink it by making a hole in the bottom) then you make it so the bottom half (with the hole) fits over the top half (sans hole) and make little holes all around the perimeter. Then, when you put some rubbing alcohol in there, the vapors will RISE UP and burn a pretty blue flame (I have seen this). I'm not sure how well it would warm a bunch of vienna sausages though xD

    How would YOU survive?

    An axe, a lighter (More reliable than matches), something flammable, like those things you use to start BBQs, and a canvas. The canvas would make a shelter between trees/branches, so the fire could have a little protection from the elements if the weather is bad, as well as myself. Gather wood with my hands and if needed the axe. Light the wood with the lighter and firestarter. Spear a weiner on a stick, cook, enjoy.

    Kitchen roll, deodorant, matches. Easy. As for a bonus fourth item, I pick a unicorn. No wait, a jetpack.

    Bear Grylls could do it, with just a knife and some water.

    I pick a bottle of cranberry juice, some Pillsbury dinner rolls, a microwave, and a car.

    I don't understand why any one of you wouldn't just bring Survivorman.

    That leaves the other three items permanently open for use.

    Lighter, BIG can of gasoline, some rope, and a knife.

    I'd douse the woods, light them on fire, and cook my wienies on the humongous bonfire!!!!

    The knife is just because knifes are cool.

    A lighter, A knife, A gun and a bucket.

    I'd stab the wienies with the knife and hold it there and use the lighter to cook them.
    The gun is for shooting bigger animals or even a bird.
    The bucket is for water, when it rains.

    You all fail because you didn't bring a can opener. Knives don't open cans.

    All I would need is a can opener and a lighter. Everything else can be found in the woods.

    Default it worked for mao

    I'd bring nothing, and leave the can in the sun for a day. It's heated up, mission complete, 1345exp, level up, firaga mastered. Create fire.


    there was a picture here

    I'd bring old manuses children and make them scavenge the woods for spoils.

    As for the can, it would... work itself out.

    I can create fire with my hand, therefore other items are unnecessary.

    Last time I checked, vienna wienies' tins had key-pulls to open them. No can opener required. <333
