Survival in the desert when your motorbike breaks down

[Constantine Phaulkon]

YouTube series where a man simulates going 7 days without much water or food (1 US gallon of water and one snack bar) when his motorbike breaks down in the Sonoran desert of Arizona (40+C in the day and below 0C at night). Of course he could have called somebody on his mobile phone but that would have defeated the purpose of the show. Somebody needs to do a show about survival in the jungle.

I don't know, I only saw the first ten minutes. He did take the spokes out of his tires to use as tools. The whole thing is a gimmick of course because nowadays you would just call a rescue from your mobile phone. I did not realize however that in the Sonora desert it gets below freezing. I knew it got cold, but not below freezing. In the jungle, what would be your biggest fear sleeping at night? Perhaps a poisonous snake, or a jaguar, or a boa, or a rogue elephant, or more likely some human who wants to rob you. I guess you can also have any of the above happen in a guest house too. As they say, travel in pairs to lessen the chances of an accident unless you are an adventurous type like you, alexuk.
