The dirty little secret that survivalists don't talk about ... no one will survive an all out apocalypse.
Nuclear power plants around the world will melt down. The entire planet will be Fukashima.
We plan ahead for a semi-break down of society.
But as far as an all out apocalypse goes ... there will be no survivors.

Even if you could survive, who would want to? If you couldn't even go to the surface or find clean water....Who in their right mind would plot out a survival plan to stay alive?
Wow, some people just love the idea of living in absolute poverty alone....Just as long as you live, right??

Your survival time would depend on so many variables that you never know . One thing is for sure , if the NWO is the reason for the collapse and chaos they will be intent on suppressing the survivalist to be sure . A survivalist could recruit anti establishment members to delay peoples submission to the provisional government . Predator drones would be deployed to locate pockets of people not accounted for living in rural areas . IR detection could easily find you .

Shouldnt it have started 2000 years ago then, when Christians were being persecuted for being Christian?

As a kiwi, it may be difficult getting across the Pacific.
Maybe I'll find other Kiwis and we can send out an expeditionary force as in Huxley's 'Ape and Essence'.

I've never been sure what an "apocalypse" is---a meteor strike---nuclear war---electromagnetic pulse attack---volcanic eruption---solar flare---just too many possibilities.

Any sort of nuclear war or extended power outage issue would be a major catastrophy, and pretty much everyone would be wiped out in a few days, weeks, or months. NO ONE is going to last YEARS.

All I have heard is ( I ) will survive so many years . How selfish ! How many of you calculated you parents who may not have prepared or brothers or sisters into the equation .
How about your starving kin folk or your significant other .
Oops ! Back to the drawing board . Certainly you all aren't single .
Food for thought

I got this:
"The results are in! You'd survive for
fifty years
after the apocalypse.
You'll be around until civilisation rebuilds itself. There'll be legends told about your name.
You're basically the dog in Independence Day."
The time doesn't surprise, but there was a dog in Independence Day?

I'm not going to be throwing anything but bullets, lol. What's more, they're going to be coming at you with a very high
Well your flat out dead. Unless you have a group with you. If not flight is better than fight.

frequency, and every single one is going to hit it's mark.
Yeah Macho talk wont get you anywhere if its a large group of equaly armed looters.
I'm not going to be fighting looters unless they're looting from me, and I'm quite the shot actually. I could post a group if you'd like. I understand that means nothing in the heat of battle, but honestly, I rarely miss. You'd better be unbelievable if you're coming at me.

Sad...but true.The worst case scenario would be all out nuke war or asteroid/comet impact.None of those are survivable.
Even if it was a virus outbreak,who would take care of the power grid if most of the population is wiped out?
Cool quiz though O.P.
