The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Expert Advice for Extreme Situations Audiobook

" This book gives a very dry, matter of fact description of steps you should take when, for example, you are attacked by an alligator. I was expecting some enjoyable, humorous reading. To the contrary the description of each survival situation was straight forward, boring, and very brief. "

" One of those diverting reads to pass five minutes.... i.e. when you're in the smallest room in the house. Ahem. "

" Great because: you can make a fire w/o matches :) "

" I hope I NEVER need any of this advice. But I am glad I read it. "

" i really hope i never have to survive a poisonous snake attack or escape from a shark or alligator... but now i know how. "

" Cause you never know . . . "

" This is a great book to keep in your car and read selections out of it when your husband is singing odd songs that get on your nerves. :) "

" Laura and Nina gave me this book to prepare me for life outsdie the lofty tower! "

" I got this book few years ago and still keeping it in my guest bathroom. I think its' fun to read it when you have plenty of time in your hands. "

" This is a really great fun read. There are situations you could be in and some you may never be in. I really enjoyed reading it though. "

" I enjoyed this little book and I hope I never have to employ any of the new lessons I learned! "

" Good book to read in the bathroom "

" I've never been stuck in a scenario I couldn't get out of so I guess the book is a life saver. Ha Ha. "

" not as good as the official army survival handbook, but has more humor. "

" This book rules. I don't know if I would say it's useless information - some day, a giant octopus COULD attack me. Be prepared, you know. "

" Useless but at least i had fun and a good laugh reading it once. "

" Well obviously I have this. "

" Again, probably won't use, but good to know anyway ;) "

" The title says it all. The authors consulted experts in a variety of fields and compiled a list of unlikely "worst-case scenarios" and how to survive them. The survival tips are clear and concise. The book also contains illustrations of the recommended survival techniques. "

" entertaining, a bit silly "

" I actually picked this up for the Spouse, a man who knows how to look for a worst-case scenario. "

" This not only useful -- if any of these scenarios ever happened to you! -- but fun and entertaining as well. It's sitting on our "breakfast" island counter-top and everyone flips through it while eating. "

" Ça ne se lit pas comme un roman. Ce sont des chroniques pour se sortir des pires situations.<br/><br/>En suppléance, ce livre sauve des vies. Des élèves de 6e année savent maintenant comment vaincre un alligator. Tout ça leur a été lu en anglais et en français: à leur demande!! :) Formidable. "

" 1999 <br/>This is a small and concise book. Very interesting. <br/>There is a 2010 edition that sounds even better: <br/>Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook:Man Skills. "

" i swear, this thing makes you so paranoid, like something - worst-case scenario or not - is going to happen. TO YOU.<br/>on the bright side, very helpful. now, whenever you find yourself battling an alligator or jumping off of a bridge 50 feet in the air, you know what to do! "

" An excellent coverage of things to do when you need to survive. Best read aloud in a group of friends(take turns picking sections). "

" I enjoyed this little book and I hope I never have to employ any of the new lessons I learned! "

" Some great info in this book. "

" Great book talk for middle schoolers. They loved it! "

" I hope I NEVER need any of this advice. But I am glad I read it. "

" Great for husbands and sons. "

" I was funny as hell. Great to read to guests when over, like a game - but without all the setup. "

" For the paranoid in you. "

" Some suggestions are good, but some are too unlikely to work. "

" Intended for entertainment, as a lot of it is too sketchy to be helpful. Nevertheless it's quite interesting. "
