Living Off the Land? - NOT!

[Midnitemo]

Most people that subsist like this have never known another way...they practice these key skills and knowledge everyday....i don't think any westerners are out there living of the land totally unsupported....the programs on tv are a farce,there survival doesn't depend on there success in the field , they have a crew , plenty of westerners have died in survival situation's because the the clock ran down on them before they could be rescued....my feeling is unless you are an indiginous population living in your own environment you are going to be seriously be up against it and i don't think you will last indefinately....i've done it for 3 weeks and lost 2 stone with some of the finest instructors in brunei.
