Ten years! Please let me know where your stash is so I can loot it for my remaining 9.

The results are in! You'd survive for
five years
after the apocalypse.
You know, that's pretty damn good for the end of the world. Well done.
You're basically Will Smith in I Am Legend.

a day
after the apocalypse.
Let's be honest: you're cut out for city life.
You're basically the women who weed herself in Threads.

The results are in! You'd survive for
twenty years
after the apocalypse.
If you go out, it won't be through lack of trying. It'll be bad luck that gets you in the end.
You're basically Mel Gibson in Mad Max.

Five years, purely because I had the sense to dig a hole, construct a crafting table, slaughter all available animals save two for breeding purposes, make a wooden sword and look for coal before I did anything else.

It says I would live for a year, but I think it misinterpreted my answers. For one, the amount of food I keep on hand is less a sign of how prepared I am and more a sign of how prepared I don't need to be. I live life one step at a time, and handle things as they come. I never try to guess what will happen, rather I just make exit strategies and techniques of coping with the myriad of things that MIGHT happen.

Lets be real, I would survive for as long as there were other life forms to sustain me.

That's some excellent wilderness skills. You'll survive like Gloria Gaynor.
You're basically Rick Grimes in the Walking Dead.

Baring bad luck, I completely agree. I know how to grow and cultivate a garden but I do not practice it. I know how to hunt and field dress a myriad of animals, but I do not practice it regularly. Many things like this are not really accounted for.

All that being said, if effects of my Crohn's disease did not kill me I feel comfortable agreeing that 10 years is a good estimate. I am 37 now; 47 would be a ripe old age in the post apocalyptic age. But one wrong step and it is all done so it would be an interesting experience to say the least. I hope my daughter never has to deal with an end of the world scenario but I will prepare her like I would if she was my son.

You'll be around until civilisation rebuilds itself. There'll be legends told about your name.
You're basically the dog in Independence Day.

I'll keep your graves all neat and tidy for the rest of you ok? Blink

I'd like to thank my father, uncle and grandfathers for teaching me to hunt, farm, butcher, skin and debone animals and for all the camping trips as a kid learning every nook and cranny of my home county and for learning whats safe to eat and whats not to eat.

Also the army with the addition of my father and uncle for teaching me to shoot for telling me that in a survival situation running is almost always the best answer.

Got ten years. Not so sure though, I'd probably lose it after a couple of years then start ganking other survivors while screaming incoherent sentences and biting the heads off kittens.
