In the stress of a survival crisis, forgetting or over looking a few things is inevitable.

This video is a great source of information on everyday things you probably have not thought of, but will definitely miss in a prolonged survival situation.

Can you think of any common items that would probably be overlooked in the stress, hurry and anxiety of a survival moment?
