Isn't that if it is below a certain temperature and you had no shelter at all such as a bench, tarp, clothing, blanket, newspapers etc?
No clue, but probably. The others are true in basically all situations, that's specifically why I'm saying that the 3 hours stat seems to be an element of the set that isn't similar to the other elements of the set.
Yeah that one is very conditional. 3 hours where? 1 second isn't survivable in some places while others you could live exposed in the open for a lifetime.
It does make sense to prioritize shelter though if you are outside particularly in the winter or summer. Something to protect from wind or sun at least. Not difficult to find and avoiding frostbite, heatstroke is a priority.
Yeah I’d guess extreme cold, or maybe even extreme hot like Death Valley heat?
