Piégé En Mer Sans Nourriture VS Perdu Dans Le Désert

Sympa

Être coincé en mer sans nourriture a l'air plutôt désespérant. Vous êtes coincé, entouré d'eau à perte de vue, mais pas une goutte à boire ou une bouchée à manger - parler d'être dans de beaux draps ! En revanche, se perdre dans le désert n'est pas non plus une partie de plaisir ; vous cuisez sous le soleil de plomb sans aucun abri ou eau en vue. Dans tous les cas, c'est comme être pris entre le marteau et l'enclume, mais je pense que je tenterais ma chance avec la mer - au moins il y a une chance de pêcher des poissons ou de recueillir de l'eau de pluie !

00:00 We have explored for the time being only 5% of the oceans.

00:04 This information alone should suffice to dissuade people from the idea of getting lost at sea.

00:08 At the other end of the spectrum are the deserts, where survival is also a test of every moment.

00:14 But surprisingly, more people lose their lives by drowning than by dehydration in the desert.

00:19 But what is the worst? Being lost at sea without food or being a prisoner of the desert?

00:25 Being lost at sea is much harder, and for a multitude of reasons. There is nowhere to shelter from the sun during the day.

00:31 The temperatures are glacial at night and the winds are violent most of the time.

00:35 You are at the mercy of the waves, and depending on where you are, you could face impressive waves of 12 meters high.

00:42 In regions like the North Atlantic, being lost at sea is a fight that usually lasts less than a minute.

00:48 In a rough sea, controlling your boat is a real challenge. There is a real danger of getting lost or drifting to the current.

00:57 The chances of being spotted and rescued by a passing ship are quite slim, unless you are on a very busy sea route.

01:05 You might think you can always catch some fish, but the ocean can reach a depth of 5 to 8 km in many places,

01:12 and the marine fauna is likely to swim well below the surface.

01:16 Catching it will require special equipment, and even if you manage to fish something, you still won't have enough to cook it.

01:24 Surviving more than a year drifting can seem incredible, but experts say it is doable with a little luck.

01:31 A fisherman named José Alvarenga is living proof of this.

01:35 He was rescued after spending more than a year lost at sea.

01:39 He claimed to have been on a boat since Mexico in 2012, and then was dragged off shore to end up, one way or another,

01:46 8,000 km away, near the Marshall Islands.

01:50 When he was found, his entire face was covered with a furrowed beard.

01:54 He had survived by catching fish, birds, and turtles with his bare hands.

01:59 In tropical waters, it is imperative to have fresh water, to stay afloat on a boat or a fortune raft,

02:05 to have shelter from the sun, food, and a signaling device.

02:11 The fact that he was on a boat 7 meters long and a large tarpon played a crucial role in Alvarenga's survival.

02:18 Generally, the human limit is around 5 to 6 weeks without food.

02:24 Catching birds and fish with your bare hands is delicate, but with a little bit of luck, it could still work.

02:30 Small turtles can be captured and kept on board, providing fresh meat and warning the score.

02:37 In Haute Mer, most turtles, birds, and fish can be eaten raw.

02:43 Marine toxins are relatively rare in fish, so it is not so risky.

02:48 Water is also vital.

02:50 Rain, the blood of birds and turtles, as well as their meat, which is rich in water, can always help.

02:56 In a tropical environment, the main dangers are heat, sun exposure, dehydration, skin infections, and animal attacks.

03:04 Alvarenga seemed confused when we found him.

03:07 Because exposure to the sun, dehydration, and vitamin deficiencies can also affect a person's psychological state.

03:14 As for the desert, it seems easier to survive there.

03:17 There are some plants, lizards, and snakes that you can nibble on.

03:22 You can stay in the shade during the scorching zenith, and only move when it's cooler, in the evening and in the morning.

03:28 We tend to imagine the desert as a warm, arid, sand-like area, but it can be very cold at night.

03:35 So, prepare to light a fire.

03:37 The latter will keep you warm, and will facilitate your tracking with the help if you are lost.

03:42 Soil and dry twigs are excellent fire-lighters, just like dried animal excrement.

03:48 The key to surviving in the desert is to conserve your water.

03:51 Focus on maintaining a normal body temperature, and keep your skin under the sun.

03:57 Find a shade where it's a little cooler.

04:00 Avoid walking in the sun.

04:03 Finally, ignore this myth that consists of drinking water from cacti.

04:07 It could do you more harm than good, because the liquid inside cacti is toxic.

04:12 Even if exhaustion makes you want to lie down, avoid the ground as much as possible.

04:18 Its temperature can be 16 degrees higher than the air temperature.

04:22 If you were in a car, remove the seats and place them in the shade.

04:26 Try to determine what will make a suitable seat.

04:29 Try to stay at least 30 cm above the ground.

04:33 Getting rid of your clothes may seem like a good idea when the sun is so bright, but it's very risky.

04:39 Exposing your skin will cause sunburns and will accelerate your dehydration.

04:44 Instead, cover your body as much as possible and stay away from direct sunlight.

04:50 Sudden rains are one of the main dangers in the desert.

04:54 The ditches, streams and other canyons can quickly fill up with water, taking you by surprise.

05:00 Don't forget that more people have lost their lives by drowning than by dehydration in the middle of the desert.

05:05 So stay on the high ground and avoid areas that could be flooded in the event of a strong downpour.

05:10 In Morocco, you can take part in the Marathon des Sables.

05:14 It's a tiring race, which is more than six times longer than an ordinary marathon.

05:18 And it all takes place in the heart of the desert.

05:21 Mauro Prosperi, an Italian police officer, decided to join the race in 1994.

05:27 A sandstorm hit along the road, leaving Prosperi disoriented.

05:32 Unnoticed, he ran in the wrong direction and traveled several dozen kilometers before realizing the gravity of his situation.

05:40 Finally, he sought refuge in an abandoned sanctuary in the middle of nowhere.

05:45 He went into survival mode and used the strength he had for one last sprint through the desert, hoping to find help.

05:53 After being lost for a whole week, he finally fell on an oasis with a small stretch of water.

06:00 But his mouth and throat were so swollen by dehydration that he couldn't swallow much.

06:06 He just stayed lying there, next to the sea, taking small sips all day long.

06:12 The next morning, he managed to fill his gourd and get back on his way.

06:17 Later, he spotted fresh tracks left by goats, which caught his attention.

06:23 Along the track, he also found human footprints.

06:27 It turned out that they belonged to the young girl who was taking care of the goats.

06:31 When Prosperi rushed to her, desperately asking for help, he first frightened her.

06:37 After which, he was finally rescued.

06:40 Let's now talk about survival on a desert island.

06:43 Here, you have more chances than lost in the ocean or in the desert.

06:47 You can increase your chances of survival by following these steps.

06:51 Look for fresh water sources, like streams, waterfalls, or rainwater.

06:57 If the place is arid, create a solar distiller by digging a hole,

07:00 then place a container inside and cover it with plastic.

07:04 Collect rainwater and boil it before drinking it. Avoid salty water from the ocean.

07:10 The next step will be to find food.

07:13 Try to eat only familiar fruits, such as coconut or bananas.

07:17 And avoid the bays, which are unknown to you.

07:19 Algae will also be beneficial to you.

07:21 And it is possible to prevent scurvy by nibbling on fresh vegetables such as lemons and oranges.

07:28 You can find a source of protein in fish, molluscs, and other small animals.

07:34 Sharpen sticks to hunt them.

07:36 Be careful with the biggest gibbets and opt for insects if necessary.

07:41 Cook the seafood well.

07:43 Before eating unknown fruits, rub them on your skin and lips to check for side effects.

07:49 Avoid fruits that smell like fish or almonds, because they could be toxic.

07:54 Do not waste anything, even if it is an excess.

07:57 Store food and water in excess and follow the plan to the letter.

08:01 I still hope that you will never find yourself in such a situation.

08:05 A man named Nelson Nedy survived five days on a desert island near Rio de Janeiro.

08:11 He had been dragged by a wave while he admired the view from the rocks near the Groumary beach and ended up on the island of Las Palmas.

08:19 The 51-year-old gardener found a cave where to sleep the first night and fell the next day on a tent and a blanket abandoned by fishermen.

08:28 Over the course of the days, Nedy began to despair and decided to drink seawater.

08:33 Finally, on the coming Saturday, jet skiers spotted the signals he was making with his shirt and warned the authorities.

08:40 A helicopter came to the rescue. And that's how Nedy was saved.
