Tripbase Travel Survival Quiz | How Intelligent Are You?

Question 1 of 7

Being the foolhardy adventurer that you are, you have decided to take a bear on in a fight. Suddenly you realize that this was a silly idea and must now escape. Do you...

Make shark-like gestures and sounds, as sharks are the natural enemy of bears, the bear will flee in terror? Make threatening advances towards the bear's young, the bear will stand down in fear that you might harm the young? Lie still and be quiet, "playing dead" will cause the bear to cease attacking? Attack the bear in its eyes and snout, forcing it to back away?
Question 2 of 7

During an intrepid exploration of the undergrowth, you have the misfortune of falling into a patch of quicksand. How do you go about escaping? Do you...

Sink to the bottom and walk out? Flail to the nearest solid ground and attempt to pull yourself out? Struggle to the surface, moving as much as possible in order to stop sinking any further? Escape from quicksand? No one escapes from quicksand. Use a walking pole and lay the pole across the sand and flop onto your back in order to prevent yourself from sinking, and then keep positioning the pole under you until you make it to safety?
Question 3 of 7

During a mountain expedition, you stumble badly. The resulting fall breaks a bone in your leg. Do you...

Reset the bone with your bare hands and use a makeshift crutch as walking support? Use two stiff objects as splints above and below the injured area, tie these in place, but not so tight as to cut off circulation? Walk it off, it should be fine if you put some weight on it? Tie a tourniquet just above the injured area, this will help with recovery?
Question 4 of 7

Whilst escaping from bad guys, they ram your holiday rental car into a lake, how do you escape? Do you...

Let the car sink, then drive to safety along the bottom? Open or smash the windows as quickly as possible and climb out? Wait until the car fills up with water, the pressure will equalise, then force a door/window open? Activate all of the airbags, causing the car to float to the surface?
Question 5 of 7

During a relaxing swim in the ocean, you spot the tell-tale dorsal fin of a shark rapidly approaching you. It's out for blood. Do you...

Hit it in the nose, as this is the most sensitive area, thus dazing the shark and allowing for your swift exit? Swim towards it, making noises like a bear (sharks hate bears)? Repeatedly jab it in the eyes and gills, indicating that you are not defenceless? Dazzle it with something shiny, this will confuse the shark and it will leave you be? Float motionless on your back/front, the shark will get bored and leave?
Question 6 of 7

Much to your disbelief, a man has decided to simultaneously both stab and shoot you. You need immediate treatment. Do you...

Immediately remove any imbedded objects (e.g. bullets, knife blade) so that blood flow can be stemmed more easily? Leave any impaled objects alone, as removing them may lead to additional blood loss, then control the bleeding (via applied pressure, tourniquets, etc)? Lie as still as possible, this will reduce blood circulation and therefore blood loss via wounds? Cover the injured area with mayonnaise, as mayonnaise has natural healing abilities and will aid with recovery? Get your friendly dog companion to lick your wounds, as canine saliva has proven healing properties?
Question 7 of 7

On a routine sky-diving exercise, you notice your parachute is failing to open. Potentially falling to your death at terminal velocity, do you...

Signal to a companion that your chute is defective; hook your arms into their harness so you don't separate when the parachute opens. You'll break both your arms, but you'll live? Figure that there's nothing you can do and fall to your death? Curl into a ball, as this will minimise damage upon impact? Flap your arms rapidly; the air resistance will cause you to slow your descent? Attempt to knock yourself unconscious, as a fully limp body will absorb most of the impact on landing?
