Survival Riddles Only The Smartest 1% Can Solve To Stay Alive

do you have what it takes to escape an erupting volcano how about deadly whitewater rabbits surviving life-or-death situations takes bravery intelligence and the ability to think logically even under extreme pressure join me now on the ultimate adventure where everything you know about problem-solving and survival will be put to the test number 10 saltwater survival picture this one day you'll wake up on a beach with no memory of how you got there with no civilization inside and the Sun beating down on you you'll need to find a water source fast of course there's the sea but saltwater is no good luckily you find an abandoned Shack which contains some handy items there's a large empty pane can another smaller can a baseball the roll of aluminum foil an old pair of sneakers and some other assorted items which one of these additional items will be most useful when combined with the previous items in obtaining some drinking water a an old sponge be a plastic bag or see a handful of tiny pebbles [Music] in this context the sponge is useless the pebbles may have some use in building a filter but you're still going to be left with salty water and you're on a beach surely they can be found lying around elsewhere that leaves the plastic bag you can fill the larger paint can with seawater until it reaches about halfway up the side of the smaller one which sits inside next you could take the plastic bag and pull it tight over the large can taking the laces from the sneakers you can tie the back in place finally you can place the baseball on top of the plastic bag directly above the smaller paint can creating an indentation leaving the set up in the Sun water will evaporate and condense on the plastic bag from there the indentation will guide it to drip into the smaller paint can voila you've got a little supply of drinkable water number 9 losing your cool even with water the speech is far from a vacation the temperature skyrockets to a hundred and ten degrees Fahrenheit and even the shade inside the shack is too hot to handle you need to cool down but some nasty sunburn takes going back into the Sun or sea off the cards as for peeing on a rag dehydration has plugged the tap so to speak which item can you use to cool down hey aluminum foil be water from your paint can set up or see the old sponge a seawater sponge bath will leave your burnt body in agony and your clean water is far too precious to tip over your head that leaves the seemingly unlikely candidate aluminum-foil true survival experts know that metallic foil is a fantastic way to cool a shelter by covering the walls and roof of the shack in as much foil as possible you can deflect some of the sun's heat driving off each stroke a little longer number eight urgent departure after a slightly cooler night you wake up to find a note pinned to the shack wall it reads salvation lies north beware the most violent tribe in the northern hemisphere is headed to your location from the south if you're still there when they arrive at 3 p.m. you'll be dead meat looking at your miraculously functional watch its hands read 245 you need to head north but which tool can help you figure out the right direction in under 15 minutes a leftover aluminium foil be a stick and two pebbles or see your watch while it has many uses aluminum foil isn't much use for navigation that stick and pebbles could be used to track the movement of the Sun and calculate where North is but that'd take more time than you've got your watch on the other hand can calculate North immediately as the mysterious stranger noted you're in the northern hemisphere knowing this all you need to do is hold the watch horizontally lining up the hour hand with the Sun drawing an invisible line in the middle of the angle between the hour hand and 12:00 will give you the South the opposite angle is north so get going number 7 volcano Blues after a day's travel you come across an abandoned town you find a motorbike with the key still in it parked outside the town's church but before you can search for more supplies the nearby volcano erupts in the distance you see it there's no sign of glowing red lava but a huge cloud of black smoke is hurtling out towards you in a minute it'll reach where you now stand do you a take the stairs to the top of the church's spire VIII head down into the church's basement which is filled with vampire bats or C take the motorbike and right away full throttle volcanic eruptions that spew out huge clouds of smoke and dust rather than lava are devastating dust reaching hundreds of degrees in temperature can form thick clouds hundreds of feet high even if the church's spire was the tallest in the world you'd still be scorched the volcanic dust can also travel at 200 miles per hour difficult for even the fastest motorbikes down run your only option is to lock yourself in the basement with some fangs fiends behind a firmly shut door number 6 going down unfortunately the basements dangerous to the rooms quickly filling with dust from outside making it hot and hard to breathe not to mention the hundreds of vampire bats on the ceiling which choice will be most helpful in preventing you from suffocating and overheating in the dust a disturb the bats getting them to fly around and create some airflow B lies flat to the cooler floor as possible or C take your shirt off hoping the bats don't bite you and give you rabies Y you cool off waking the bats probably wouldn't harm you seeing as vampire bats are much safer than their reputation suggests and only 0.5% of them carry rabies blood creating an airflow of this same dust-filled air won't help you lying on the cooler ground might be comfy but the dust will still choke you out before you know it taking your shirt off would be much more than a striptease you can actually hold it over your mouth and nose decked as a filter reducing the amount of dust being inhaled number five a nasty fall by some miracle you find a secret passage in the basement and escape the dust you enter a cave and stumble into a subterranean River which carries you off eventually you fall down a large waterfall into a much deeper underground river surrounded by rocky cave walls on both sides you try to swim onward but the force of the waterfall is creating a reverse current pulling you backwards with an intense force you're barely able to steal a breath your body is aching and you'll drown if you don't act fast do you a swim down into the crashing water B give all you've got and try swimming out of the waterfalls pool or C swim to the side and try to climb the walls [Music] swimming onward isn't an option the current has been able to pull you backwards already and your body is aching from exhaustion the chances of directly overcoming the force of a waterfall is negligible and even if you could grip the slimy cave walls you'd have to do the impossible and escape the current first while going downward seems counterintuitive going as deep as you can will lessen the force of the current and swimming further downstream this way is your best bet of overcoming the deadly pull number four a bend and hope eventually the river spits you out in a murky swamp you narrowly escaped a population of alligators so large you're forced out of the swamp into an abandoned theme park from the water damaged buildings rubble and debris blocking moves routes through you can tell the place was recently flooded the parks pond sits in the middle with strange indentations in the mud of its banks the rest of the park is an impassable mess there are only three paths available to move on a swim through the murky pond be passed through the tunnel of love which has become home to several groups of Asian giant Hornets or see squeeze through a narrow passage in the rubble disturbing the yellow and black striped three-inch long venomous spiders waiting there considering the park was recently flooded next to a swamp full of alligators it's quite likely that a few may have been swept over in the process the indentations around the pond are telltale signs of an alligator presence so that's not risk becoming dinner as for the tunnel of love Asian giant Hornets are among the deadliest insects on the planet with venom that can dissolve human skin avoid at all cost which leaves the tight squeeze past the spiders which thankfully her golden orb weavers they're not aggressive and their venom is harmless to humans allowing an easy passage number three towered trouble after traveling north for a few days you found yourself in a large open field and its center lies an arrow tower home of the mysterious stranger with a hatred for people who can't do math weird I know but this man is living on his own in the middle of a remote field he's not exactly a socialite he says you must figure out the height and feet on this tower it's 3:00 p.m. and the sun's out it gives you one minute to solve the puzzle or I'll shoot you for trespassing what do you use to solve it a your shoelaces be your spit or see your shadow there might be some complex way that shoelaces could crack the puzzle but you certainly aren't getting them off your shoes and into puzzle-solving action in a single minute spitting might give the stranger a sense of how frustrated you are but little else but in a sunny open field at 3:00 p.m. both the building shadow and your own will be easy to see standing next to the tower noting exactly how far your shadow reaches against the towers you can walk to the end of the tower shadow noting how many times your own fits inside it simply multiply your own height and feet by that number then you've got the height of the tower now that you've passed Azrael you can tell him to go and buy a tape measure number two wild welcome your joke didn't go down too well as the mysterious stranger welcomes you into his tower he shuts the large oak door behind you knocking you in there the weird strangers tower is empty apart from a sign that says freedom pointing to three separate tanks you can access below you you'll starve unless you do something so your only option isn't an or one of the tanks and pray there's a route out which tank will it be a filled with three very aggressive territorial porcupines whose spikes have been tipped with venom from the world's most toxic cone snail be a hungry dairy cow with the face of a polar bear or see a pool containing a huge 10-foot long Humboldt squid which the man brought up from the deep sea a year ago these squids have a reputation for aggression towards humans and their tentacles bear hundreds of suckers each lined with razor-sharp teeth to grasp prey and drag it towards their large sharp beak first of all stay away from the tank of porcupines cone snail venom is so complex there's no anti-venom that thwarted and as for the polar bear it might have some trouble walking on its hooves but it's sharp teeth and we're all strengths will be enough to make you its snack as frightening as it seems the Humboldt squid is your best bet we've never kept one in captivity and few deep sea creatures managed to live longer than a few weeks there because the environment is so different to their deep sea AB attack happened to the tag move its dead body aside and head for the underwater exit number one let it slide you think you're free but on your journey and another mysterious stranger appears and reveals himself to be the evil supervillain devil negative at gunpoint he forces you to write one of three water slides colored red blue and yellow two of them lead to a deadly vat of sulfuric acid while one leads to paradise all he tells you is this ride the red and you won't not be dead it's a lie to say the blue isn't dissimilar the yellow doesn't have less in common with the red than the blue which do you choose a red be blue or C yellow writing the red you won't not be dead this double negative means you will be dead yellow doesn't have less in common with the red than the blue meaning it does have more in common with the red than the blue and apparently it's a lie to say the blue isn't dissimilar to the red meaning it's a lie to say the blue is similar to the red which means the blue is not similar to the red but the yellow is this means the red and yellow are deadly while the blue is safe down the slide you go to the bottom where Oh an empty beach doesn't this seem familiar did you survive this tricky riddle challenge how many did you get correct let me know in the comment section
