CAN I PLAY ..CAN I PLAY <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Para cord for shoe laces spider wire wraped around the ear pieces of my glasses (figure i could get maybe 10 to 15 ' on each ear) couple of needles tucked into the hem of my pants push some wire through the para cord (snare wire) how about a couple of slip shot ear studs <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Really like the necklace idea add some slip shot for beads (maybe paint them) Boy if you did carve out the heels of your shoes , imagine how much gear you could get in there ( very Maxwell Smart!!)

I think that the point is not to hide things, but put useful stuff in plain sight in such a way that it does not look useful...
I imagine that everybody was searched, and that the producers took the stuff that looked too useful. So, the key is to make it look as innocent as possible.

They ever get an ex-con on there, they'll have to search him/her extra well, given the imaginative ways things are secreted in prison. <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Harrkey has the right idea, hidden in plain sight. Bubba, I like the split shot sinkers for beads and also the paracord for shoelaces. I remember the ex-Seal Rudy was the only one to try a fire drill and his shoelace that was used as a bowstring broke. His choice of wood wasn't to great though as he used bamboo as the hearth board. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> On the food gathering topic, I always thought my much fishing effort would be toward building fish traps.

You know how they never give them any fishing gear until like day 3 or 5 They don't need fishing gear by then, because the reward challenges start where they can win alcohol and chocolate donuts and ice cream and cheese fries...all the kind of stuff that is PERFECT for people who have had little or nothing to eat for several days! My wife can get into that show no matter what point in the game it is...and develop very strong feelings about the players. I think those of us who have seen it a few times can agree that the name "Survivor" is a misnomer. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> And the concept of "hidden in plain sight" was a basic practice of ninja in the old days. Still valid today...and sometimes quite necessary! I'm glad that no one mentioned body orafices when thinking of places to stash gear <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

"Survivor" is one of those total scams that CBS is famous for. I wouldn't watch it if they paid me to watch. "Reality TV" as a whole is itself a joke, because reality becomes non-reality when a tv camera is present. There is no 'normal' when people face a tv camera, it becomes a performance.
It's like the challenges in studying subatomic particles...the very act of observation changes the "behaivor" of the subject being studied!

I can see a problem with trying to conceal certain items and the TSA though. :-) Gives new meaning to the phrase "The tribe has spoken" <img src="/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
