I figure I would have lasted about an hour and a half, and only if I didn’t leave the cave.
I’m a lot of things, but a survivalist isn’t one of them.
I don’t camp. ( nowhere to plug in my blow dryer )
I can’t make fire. ( without a lighter )
I don’t fish and I don’t hunt. ( unless it’s down a grocery aisle )
Hell, I can’t even tell a good mushroom from a poisonous one. ( though in the late 70’s I discovered a different kind of good ‘shroom 😉 )
Yup, an hour and a half sounds about right.
How about you?
What’s your prehistoric survival time limit…

No snarky comments necessary, I’m aware humans and dinosaurs didn’t co exist.
Or did they…?

Same, a day or two at the most. Without the comforts we need and have come to depend on, like food we don’t have to hunt or a nice comfy bed so we don’t sleep on the cave floor; I’d be T-Rex food, lol. Okay yes humans and Dinos didn’t coexist but, has anyone NOT seen the TV series Land of The Lost!?

It was a Saturday morning show that aired on NBC from 1974-1976. About a family that went rafting and somehow wound up in a prehistoric (center of the earth) place with T-Rex-Es, T-Rex-i (whatever the plural is for a t-Rex.) 🤔. Will Farrell also made it into a movie in 2009.

Ah. Never had kids. No Saturday morning TV. Seldom go to the movies, no theatre i my town. Nearest one is 300 kms (180 plus miles) away. Too far to drive for a Saturday night show.

I loved that show when I was a kid! But then I played with dinosaurs instead of dolls..

I think I’d have hung on for at least a few months. Prehistoric poison ivy would have eventually been my downfall.

If I could have found a permanent berry patch with some nut trees thrown in for good measure, I could have lasted a long time. But if I had to kill my food, forget it! I would not hsve survived babyhood.

I might last awhile, because I’d be more fit than I am

i’m pretty good in the woods– did a lot of camping, hunting, fishing with my dad growing up. i’d like to say i could survive a year. i’d take it as a challenge, and i’d honestly like to try it, but my family would think i was nuts.

I love day tripping in the woods, but wouldn’t last long if I had to build a shelter and stay warm.

Currently? I’m dead in five minutes. I can barely limp. Predators would have a field day. If there’s a zombie apocalypse, I’m just gonna sacrifice myself with some rearguard trench action.

Maybe, a few days..provided there’s a water source, I don’t accidentally eat poisonous plants, and I don’t get a Migraine.
