Let's see. 10 foot of paracord in a survival situation.....

start by pullling out the inner strands. Un-ravel one of the 1 inner strands and splice - 30 foot fishing line. Use another cut to 2 foot lengths on a squirrel pole as 5 snares - dinner for a fortnight. Use the other 5 inner strands to hold the shelter together 10 foot of outer sheathing cord can be used to hold the ends of a canoe together so you can fish the center of the lake. Heck, now youve got shelter, food and water who needs rescue! Settle in and enjoy your freedom from urban blight!
