Say you were marooned on a tropical island

The plane crashed on the island and no one else survived. You had plenty of supplies on the plane. You were off the grid/radar and they thought you drowned.

It was a rich paradise, full of life.

You would have to hunt wild boar and catch fish if you wanted meat. There would be tropical fruit if you wanted it. There would be no internet.

I think most would want to go home, back to the easy convenience of suburban life.

I think I would suffer at first and would want to be found. I would stay if I could.

You would feel so alive in survival mode.

Do you think you would survive in this situation?

Honestly, I  think I would die within a week. I have no survival skills. I don't know how to fish. The wild boars will probably kill me instead.

  • Lol like TheCatWoman I wouldn’t last long. Not because of lack of internet or isolationism, but more so due to lacking any and all survival skills. I’d end up doing something stupid like stepping on a sharp rock with bare feet and immediately die lol.

    I was in Cub Scouts as a kid, but being that there was no scout leaders remotely near my farming town we were led by a lady who never went through any scouting experiences herself. We just did arts and crafts for a couple years until the management for the Scouts found out and shut her little art operation down lmao. So no, I have ZERO survival skills.
