The Survival Rule of 3 says you can survive three minutes without air, three hours without shelter, three days without water and three weeks without food.

Obviously air and shelter are the most critical, immediately, but depending on the environment you are in, neither is likely to be as critical as water.

This is because if you find yourself without air, shelter and water become less important. Shelter is dictated by season and locality – it is not as important in a warmer climate except for protection.

Without water, however, in every environment, at three days you start to deteriorate and your body starts to become toxic.

It becomes an exponential curve – as you go without water, you deteriorate and become toxic and that affects your judgment, making it harder for you to find clean source water, which makes you deteriorate more and become more toxic.

That is why the video on the next page is a must see.
