If you want to test your ability to survive without technology, look at Serious Survivor’s list of 20 survival skills that people have forgotten. To hear him elaborate on the importance of each skill, be sure to check out the full video below. Here’s his list.

  1. Land navigation with map and compass
  2. Land navigation without map and compass
  3. Marksmanship and gun care
  4. Fire making
  5. Hunting
  6. Fishing
  7. Water purification and filtration
  8. Preserving food
  9. Tying knots
  10. Raising animals
  11. Processing meat
  12. Farming and growing food
  13. Wild edibles
  14. Predicting weather
  15. Mechanic skills
  16. First aid
  17. Herbal and natural medicinal remedies
  18. Bartering
  19. Driving manual transmission or stick shift
  20. Mentally handling stress and panic

These skills have been developed and perfected by humans over time, allowing us to turn attention to technological advances instead. These basic skills are worth protecting and practicing, so they are kept fresh in case of an emergency.

Whether you choose to learn and pay attention to wild edibles nearby or do a crash course on map and compass work, it will be worthwhile to make sure you have these things in check. As preppers, many of these abilities may already be in your mental toolbox, so consider sharing the video with someone who won’t be ready when technology fails.
