Having fairly recently came off the back of a long winded conversation over the best three objects to take come an innevitable Zombie Apocalypse it go me thinking about other "very probably" situations in which i could add this question, like an Alien Invasion, or Labour ever getting back into power!

The way this works is. Take a situation (what ever you like, probable or not), you only have 5 minutes to collect your gear and can only take 3 items. What is your situation and what 3 items do you have to take it on?

I'm deep in Soviet Russia, trying to infiltrate a top secret research facility.

I have:
A screwdriver.
A Grilled Cheese Sandwich.
The clothes on my back.

Suddenly, an alarm goes off, and my mission goes from infiltrate to escape.
Let's do this.

Seriously (sic): my nihonto, my rice cooker and my iPod (deals with most of my worries)

"Take these three items, some WD-40, a vise grip, and a roll of duct tape. Any man worth his salt can fix almost any problem with this stuff alone."

Car chains, broadsword, roadflare.

Fighting a wwolf pack (wierdly almost happened, though at the time I was ten and only had a tomahawk and my dog with me) in the darkest of night.

I pity the wolf that comes near me.

Destruction of earth to make way for a hyperspace bypass.

All I need is a towel, and a Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy.

Towel penknife and rope. Those will get you through anything from alien invasion to house fire.

Hm, I suppose you can't bunker down in this scenario and use resources in your house or somewhere as part of your three. So, in that case, I would break into my neighbors house and take his shotgun (loaded), run and grab one of my survival kit's in my car, and then (again assuming nothing else is in my car because of the three item limit) I would then take my car and drive to safety. So, in a nutshell,
1. Loaded shotgun
2. Survival Kit
3. Car

If we follow the 'anything imaginable' route then of course I'm simply going to pick game-breaking options, specifically:

1. A sniper rifle and plenty of ammo.
2. A machine gun and plenty of ammo.
3. An Army survival pack.


Thus I'm going to be more realistic and pick things from my own flat, which I can actually access within five minutes. I'd survive the apocalypse though, most likely, because within three miles of my flat is a TA base, where I could access weapons and ammo, and supplies. I merely need equipment to get me those three miles in the first place. Therefore, I would take:

1. My iPod Touch.
2. My laptop and its necessary peripherals (like the charging cable and such), inside its carry-case.
3. The BB gun my friend lent me to use as a film prop (he's using it as a prop for a play he wrote).


The BB gun is a proper replica, which is why we're using it in his play and the film I produced. We needed something that looked authentic (that isn't a real gun, as we're in the UK, it's a handgun, and we don't have gun licenses). So I can use it to trick and thus warn away people who try to hinder me while I escape to the TA base near me to get proper weapons and supplies. A decoy to prevent problems with fellow survivors, if you will. The iPod and laptop are basically for record-keeping, and for internet access and communication. My phone is always with me anyway which is why I didn't count it as one of the three above. When the internet goes down, eventually, then I can still use the laptop and iPod for keeping a log and record of events, and if necessary an information database. Good, accurate information is key to survival in any given situation, after all...

Tornado incoming. Take a fast car with my own personal driver, some vodka, and a rifle to shoot at things as we drive on.

The only question remains though, is front seat or back seat? Which seat do I take...?

Phone.
Stanley knife.
Gaffa Tape.

I am yet to encounter a situation that I cannot fix with a combination of these three things.
