Have you seen the movie Alive? It is about people who are in a plane crash on top of a mountain who are forced to canabalize their dead to survive.
Myself and others were talking about the movie and started joking around about if we were in a plane crash. Eventually, like all things do, the conversation went down hill. : )
We then started discussing why we would not be the ones who would be eaten if in that scenario.
Now, my question to you... Imagine you are with a group of 20 or so people on a plane and that plane wrecks atop a mountain in the Andes. There is a blizzard and you have no food. What special skills, traits, training will save you from becoming food for the rest of the party?

I really don't have any special skills but I'm on the small side as well. I wouldn't really feed that many people!

Good point, but being small might also make people think you are an easy target.

Well Watch I would hone my culinary skills and be the guy who can actually make the food taste good. Then at least that would keep me good till the last two. Who wants to eat other people and actually know what they are eating? I mean really... And of course a good course in self-defence might help to fend of the hungry people as I'm cooking.

Military survival skills, hunting, fire building, shelter building, map reading, and an overall great moral booster!

Thanks for playing. We will have to see what the rest of the members of this doomed flight say before we find out who is lunch.
