Like any sane human, spending a short period of time in the sand dunes made me think about Bear Grylls drinking his own pee for survival. So I decided to deep dive into some research (I asked chatGPT) about how much extra survival time a person would gain when doing such a thing. Turns out it’s like 1 extra day. That is not nearly enough time to convince me to board that train. Christ. Like just let the vultures get me at that point. Man do you think Timothée Chalamet‘s character in dune had to do it? Anyways. This also left me with some questions for Bear (first name basis): 1. Was it actually movie magic lemonade 2. If not, what the fuck 3. What did your camera guy do when you just decided to start slugging piss for the hell of it? Cus we know you had water there man From this whole potential situation and developing new nightmare fuel, I decided to coin some of my own survival tips for the everyday traveller: 1. Carry Mio water flavouring while trekking the desert in case you get into such a situation 2. Just don’t 3. Hire a production team to have bottles of Voss on deck Well, anyways happy new year. Operating on low braincell ability right now if that wasn’t clear already
