Secrets of Survival is a site dedicated to a common sense, practical approach to survival and prepping. In the past decade or so, the rise of the “survival television program” has lead to an explosion in interest in the things that I care the most about, but so much of the information is sensationalized and unnecessary.
Just think about Bear Grylls – he’s former special forces so he definitely knows what he’s talking about, but the stuff he teaches on his show is over the top and not useful. It becomes a case of “how can Bear Grylls get out of this situation” rather than “Here are some useful survival skills you can learn”. This site was started to combat this kind of sensationalism.
