Consider this scenario

(you never know, it might just happen to you)

You are flying overseas to visit friends or relatives. You fall asleep for hours during the flight.

You wake up and head for the toilet. After doing the necessary you push the button and without

any warning the floor disappears and you find yourself falling through the air. Your survival instinct kicks in and you

immediately place your head between your legs to decrease your size and wind resistance.

This you know will speed up your fall and speed you to your inevitable demise.

You brace yourself as your life flashes before you and wished you had not stole your brothers favourite frog.

You wonder if the Airline company will give you a refund for the part of the journey that you have

not completed, but that thought quickly leaves your mind.

With your head between your legs you see the ground rushing up to meet and destroy you.

In this position, you kiss your bum goodbye as you know it is the last thing you will see.

Then surprise surprise, you find yourself crashing through the branches of pine trees on the side of a very steep

mountain covered in snow. Your speed is slowed considerably and you are thrown from the branches onto

the side of the deeply snowed mountain and still going down at a much slower pace again.

You are now sliding down a very clear slope that is getting less and less steep. You come to a stop at the snow line.

You lie there for 30 min afraid and totally awed and disoriented. You gingerly arise and test your body for damage

and find to your absolute amazement, that apart from a few cuts and bruises you are in quite good condition.

You have absolutely nothing with you besides the clothes on your body (the Airlines policy even took your lighter).

You head further down the mountain untill the weather is milder and dry.

You have no idea where you are and in what direction you can find help.

Then, like an Arch Angel, a website called www.australianoutdoors.com comes to mind.

Then within no time at all you have a fire.

What a great website this is, hey!!

Thank you very much for visiting and have a great time during your visit with us.
