What is Survival Common Sense?

What is Survival Common Sense?


An emergency can happen to you and your family at any time, on any day, and most people are completely unprepared. What would you do if you sprained your ankle at dusk, in the middle of a forested urban park on a routine evening winter run? What if your car slides off a rural, icy road and gets stuck in a ditch during a fierce mid-Western blizzard? What about being awakened by fire alarms and the smell of smoke in your totally-dark, fourth-floor hotel room?
Most people never think about the need to survive anything. But you, the average person, could easily be one slip, fall or crash away from real trouble.
This website is about proven and tested common sense survival techniques that anyone should learn when living in urban areas or wandering about in the wilderness. Using your common sense to survive any calamity can change a dangerous situation into a mere inconvenience.
