fritos

Beebrains 1.5k points · 1 month ago Fritos (but really most potato chips) work well as firestarter in a pinch. So not only do you have a tasty snack, if it's raining, you can make fire pretty easy without have to try and find dry wood.

waiting for train

ClownfishSoup 373 points · 1 month ago While on the platform waiting for a train/subway, stand sideways facing the direction the train is coming. This is so that your body is facing parallel to the tracks and if someone pushes you, or bumps into you, you will not fall into the tracks.

breaking car windows

lechecondensada 5.9k points · 1 month ago · edited 1 month ago You can remove the top of MOST cars seats to break the windows of your car in case you can't open the doors. Specially useful if you drive into a lake or something like that. Edit: not all cars can get this done.

amazing race producer

FrequencyMachineDom 477 points 1 month ago When I was a producer on The Amazing Race, our security team always briefed us that the safest floors, in general, in a hotel were 4 thru 7. Above the 4th floor is the safest zone from any kind of bomb or explosive that might be driven or tossed into a building and below the 7th floor gives you the best chance of survival from a fire. I got so many other great travel tips from them, but that one has always stood out and to this day, I request a room between those floors.

stuck in the snow

patrickverbatum 35.6k points · 1 month ago if you get stuck in your car in the snow, STAY WITH YOUR VEHICLE!! Hypothermia makes you delirious and you can wander the wrong direction and freeze to death. Your vehicle is also a LOT easier to locate than YOU are.

being followed

EMPIRES 3.7k points · 1 month ago If you're walking and suspect someone is following you, pretend like you're calling someone on the phone asking them their whereabouts, then face a direction your follower can't see (Like the corner of a building ) and raise your hand and start waving it saying "Yes I see you, I'm over here".

scariest things #15

i_fuckin_luv_it_mate 1.9k points · 3 days ago My sister had an all white clown doll that hung from the ceiling on a little swing. In the summertime, we slept with our doors and windows open to get the cool air in. When I woke up one night hearing some tapping against her window down the hall. If i sat up in bed and look down the hall, and I could see into the front of her bedroom. So I did, and I see this f------ clown swinging back and forth against her window, back lit by the street lamp, but clearly staring directly into my soul like it was all it desired in this world.

But holy hell when it goes off at 3AM your subconscious mind dumps adrenaline into you. I thought i was going to have a heart attack. Like literally 29 year old about to have my wife call an ambulance.
