The 3 Threes of Survival

Surviving is inherent in us as human, weather in an urban setting or in the wild. Survival, at the most basic level, is staying alive despite the circumstances. Most people want to, and some people work towards surviving “forever”. This, sadly, is not (at least currently) possible. what people interested in improving their chances should concentrate on is surviving for a period of time. To help this thought methodology, there is the rule of Threes.

Simply stated;

In any extreme situation, a person cannot survive for more than:

3 minutes without air

3 hours without shelter

3 days without water

3 weeks without food

So if you are ever confronted with a survival situation remember your threes.
