Of course, it's very improbable that you'll end up in a similar situation. But if, God forbid, you do, internet personality Adorian Deck, aka The Facts Guy, wants you to be prepared. So he is working on an interesting video series where he shares information on how to identify and escape emergencies.

If you think your home is haunted and you've been seeing or hearing a presence, get a carbon monoxide detector, there's a chance you could be hallucinating and this could be lethal
#3
If you are ever trapped in a car, the headrest pole is made of material that is designed to smash car windows.
#4
When crying for help, try and call some specific people like "hey, you in the red shirt, help, I'm being mugged!" A lot of people will ignore a help call so if you call someone specifically they'll look at you. If people are really ignoring your help call you can just try and yell "fire!" because people are going to come running to see stuff burning.
#5
If you ever come face to face with a mountain lion, don't turn around, just walk backwards, they will be waiting for you to turn around before they attack you.
#6
If you have a wound or bug bite and there's this kind of weird red line, that's blood poisoning.
#7
If you witness an accident, never take off the person's helmet, you can make a spine or brain injury worse
#8
If your house smells like fish for absolutely no reason there may be an electric fire
#9
Keep a survival candle in your car when you're in cold areas because the heat from one candle can keep you from fatal freezing. And these candles can last up to 36 hours.

If a moose is in the middle of the road, it's better to just swerve and run into a ditch because hitting a moose is like hitting a brick wall.
Katherine Boag 2 years ago
Moose are at the height of your windscreen and you'll get crushed. All your car's crumple zones are in the wrong place for car vs moose
#11
Use this helpful rhyme to remember what to do in the event of facing each kind of bear "If it's brown - lay down, if it's black - fight back, if it's white - goodnight"

If a tornado looks like it's not moving, it's because it's moving towards you.
Libby Tailor 2 years ago
Or away from you. But since you don't know, better run (or drive) away
#13
The more colorful and vivid the animal the more likely it's poisonous.
Chinmayee Kalghatgi 2 years ago
They do this as a form of advertising that they are toxic. Other prey copy their designs to appear poisonous when they are not
#14
If you are ever buried in rubble, yelling will just waste energy, try and grab something and tap it in intervals of three, rescuers will notice the pattern.
#15
If somebody is ever trying to take you or points a gun at you to get you away in a public place, you just have to start screaming and fighting. Even if you're shot, medical attention can get to you relatively fast, but if they do end up taking you to a private place, your chances of being rescued are much lower
#16
Never mix bleach and ammonia because the result is a poisonous gas that will take your life.
#17
If lost in the woods, always follow the water downstream.
#18
If you ever see square waves in the ocean get out immediately
#19
Garage door springs can kill you if you try to take them off the wrong way. So best recommended to leave it to professionals.
WoodenLion 2 years ago
a door company refused to even sell me a spring once for that reason. probably a really good idea not to let me have it.
#20
If you've gone two and a half days without water and your only choice is either drink water that can't be sanitized or not drink water, drink the water. You're gonna pass away no matter what if you don't drink it. Most diseases you get from drinking bad water takes a couple of days to set in so you have some more time to get out.
Emma London 2 years ago (edited)
If one is that dehydrated, the urge to drink probably drives over any rational thought. You'll most like drink anything but saltwater.
#21
If someone tries to kidnap you, scratch your attacker because now their DNA will be in your fingernails
#22
Milk from brown coconuts will dehydrate you, drink the green ones.
#23
If you ever feel like someone is following your car, take four right turns. If they're still behind you, they're following you. You can also get off and on the freeway, but if this happens, just stay calm. Call the police and drive to a police station. Don't go home.
#24
Do not slide into the pins at a bowling alley as a joke. The pin setting machine will crush you
#25
If you have tightness in the middle of your chest that goes to your jaw and your shoulders or down your left arm, chew an aspirin and wash it down with water, then call emergency services. You are having a heart attack and this could save your life. Females will have pain in their upper back between the shoulder blades.
#26
If you need to break into a car window aim for the edges and corners because it's weaker than the center.
#27
If you are choking or having a heart attack, get out of your car. You can't signal anyone if you're unconscious in your car, but if you're draped over the hood that'll be sending a distress signal.

Indeed. My husband's friend lost his father who drove himself to the hospital and then died behind the wheel of his car in the car park (asthma attack).
#28
If a power line falls next to you don't run or walk. Just put your feet together and bunny hop like this. That way the electricity can't go up one leg and down the other.
#29
Mud all over will keep you from being eaten alive by insects
#30
30 years ago, you had about 17 minutes to escape a house fire. Today, you only have about three minutes because newer homes and furniture burn faster.
Madison Feehan 2 years ago
Sixty seconds if your neighbour and yourself live in side by side skinny modern houses. 🙄
#31
If you wake up in the middle of the night to the smell of gas do not turn your light switch on it could blow up your whole house
#32
If your drink randomly smells like cinnamon, don't drink it. People will use that to cover up the scent of poison
#33
If you or someone else gets stabbed, do not pull the knife out. It acts as a plug for blood loss.
#34
If you're ever trapped in a building on fire get to the ground because the most breathable air will always be at the lowest point

If you have to perform CPR follow the beat of Staying Alive by The Bee Gees.

Most drunk driving fatalities occur on Saturday mornings between 1 am and 3 am. Avoid the roads at this time if you can

My grandma always said, "nothing good happens outside your house after midnight". She was not wrong.
#37
If you accidentally disturb a beehive, do not go underwater, they will just wait for you and sting you more. Run as far away as possible and they will eventually tire out
#38
Do not run zigzag if an alligator is chasing you. It's a myth. They're not stupid and they run up to 35 miles per hour.
#39
If your hair suddenly stands up like this, duck and cover, you're about to be struck by lightning
#40
Too much cold snow in your stomach can cause you to pass away of hypothermia. If snow is all you have, melt the ice then drink it

So this guy on Tiktok basically just took things we've known for a long time and videoed them like they're his own?
Strawberry Pizza 2 years ago
I love the way they've replaced the word "die" in all of these with "pass away" instead as if it isn't exactly the same thing
Urbosa 2 years ago
Some people(like me) get triggered panic attacks about death from certain words associated to death. And trust me, panic attacks are not fun.
