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.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 This is a small and concise book. Very interesting. There is a 2010 edition that sounds even better: 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.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. "
