If the writer’s brother was a true survivalist, he could go into the wild without anything and survive by using resources that can be found in the wild. When a person is forced into such a situation, there are plenty of weapons in the wild if a person has to protect himself or herself. There is also plenty of food that will keep a person alive and fuel and materials for staying warm. The writer’s brother is a putz that stands around in body armor, holding a gun while everyone else are going about their business.

I honestly would be more terrified being on a spaceship that was traveling around the Milky Way galaxy than I would be getting thrust into the wild and forced to survive, even in extreme cold.
