    My number item will always be a pot. Water is the biggest most important thing in survival. You can always make a sharp something to cut. You can find cordage in most places. You can create fire other ways but you need to be able to filter water somehow or clean it. And the pot is good for so many other things too. Everyone always says a knife first but I would always say a pot as number one especially if I only get one thing.

    Fair enough. The only difference my answer had was a rucksack in place of the cordage, but that's only because the areas that I'm used to that I would chose to go survive in have an absolute abundance of dogbane, and I'm used to turning that into rope pretty quickly and easily. Used to make rope out of it when I was bored as a kid. Meanwhile a good rucksack means less trips gathering supplies, and the ability to carry more tools and supplies over longer distances.

    What are the 4 things that kill a person in the wild? No air, 3 minutes Exposure, 3 hours No water, 3 days No food, 3 weeks You need: blanket with some type of small tarp. Water purification unit. Something to boil water in. Lighter, lots of lighters. After this, add anything you want. Misery Index Mental toughest: Cold water makes you the most miserable in the shortest amount of time. After finishing your next shower, turn the hot water off and stay in the cold for 5 seconds, then build up to 10 seconds. Keep this up until you can just stand the cold water, but still function. Try to tie a knot or do a simple math problem to test yourself. Learn to eat something that tastes horrible. This isn't a dining experience, it's to keep you alive. Start with liver, brains, or other organ meat. Next try crickets and grasshoppers. Work your way to gophers, rats, and pigeons. You're not trying to develop a taste for these, you're just trying to choke it down and keep it down. Chew these toward the back of your mouth where there are less taste buds. Once in the jungle, a woman offered me a handfull of grubs. She had been kind enough to gather them and offer them to me, so i felt obligated to eat them. Did they taste nutty? No, they tasted like caca. I will spare you the story of dining on a walrus colon. But it was almost all fat and full of calories. I suggest using a finger to get the lard off the roof of your mouth and a few mints after such a meal.

    You should still boil water after filtering it, it’s actually more important to boil it than filter it. Filtering water removes mostly just visible contamination: namely macroscopic-organisms and particulate. But boiling it kills the left over bacteria and viruses. (A good filter will also remove *some* dissolved solids and non-water liquids but not all) Consuming a little dirt is a lot less dangerous than ingesting large amounts of infectious microorganisms.

    I do agree you can't filter as well as boiling, however boiling water takes a lot of fuel, a lot of time, and only when a fire won't give away your presence or position. A combo of both can be great. Hard to carry water in a lot when on the move. Boil when you can only filter when you can't boil fast enough

    None of the hat guarantees food for longer term survival and the Mylar tent is a fragile open ended tube that won’t last long in high wind. With 5 items he could have chosen a real tent, a warm sleeping bag, a 5 day ration pack, a water bottle filter and a satellite messenger/PLB in case he can’t get out ok. Long distance ultralight backpackers don’t typically lose their stuff. Learning how to secure a compact pack and not lose it means you can rely on having all the gear you need.

    I'd go a bit different. 1) water filtration. Lack of water will kill you quicker than almost anything else in most environments. 2) Compass. Getting lost will also kill you. I actually recently had a moment where I got disoriented in Nevada in 105 degree heat. Missed my truck and passed by the parking lot in a harsh environment. But I was able to quickly identify it, pull out my compass, and get back alive. 3) Heavy knife or a small hatchet. You can do a lot either these things, probably doesn't need explanation. 4) Cordage 5) A 1 liter cooking pot. It will hold most of my other things, and I can also purify water, cook food, etc. If I could add a 6th, it would be the ferro rod. Fire is also critical but I have the skills to start a fire without that. If you don't, probably swap the cooking pot with a ferro rod.

    @carylee7118 yeah, but boiling only *kinda* works, depending on your source. It's doesn't get the dirt out haha. Plus you have to have fire before you can get safe water that way, which can be unfortunate if you find yourself in a place where you need water. But you are right. It is slightly redundant. 5 things is a tricky list to pare it down to. And to be fair, usually what I actually carry is water filter, compass, knife, cordage, and med-kit, at least when I'm hiking. Pots just don't fit in a very small backpack well haha.
