But I did find a new quiz. It's about surviving disasters or something. I bombed it. My results said
You are so dead. You never stood a chance. Do yourself a big favor and brush up on your survival skills.
I got 4 out of 17! Me!!! ...Mostly because I bombed the dog attack section. Anyway, good luck and never let go.

damn, i got an 8. i'm alive, but maimed. stupid dog and plane got me.
then i retook the test and got 17 out of 17. see, i can learn. i can make it!
Booyah, 12 out of 17, but I'm still maimed.
I disagree with the dog questions. I have fought dogs before, and it ain't no science. Several dogs at once would be tough, but I'd take on any dog. The airplane stuff and the desert questions, ok, I'll take my lumps. But I refuse to take advice from the computer about how I do my dog-fighting.
Luckeee... I always die-- GOSH!
I don't know Jay, from what I've read and seen, the dog stuff seems to be accurate (in a theoretical sense). Making eye contact and smiling are signs of aggression. Dogs are very hierarchical and if you show submission, they do tend to back off.
i agree with jay. i went with backing away slowly, although this answer had eye contact. so, i'm supposed to just let agressive barking dog just come at me, while i stand patiently, looking away. screw that. i'm eyeballin that dog until either i'm safe, he attacks and i defend, or he decides to move along. hell, this isn't a chimp that i'm dealing with.
and when he attacks, fat chance i'm rolling fetal. i'm trying to grab that mean effer by the face and neck. i know my hands will take the brunt of the assault, but that sure beats my jugular. and, if i get my hands around his neck, fat chance he's biting me. it'll be all about kicking while holding. or i'll result to my stab you with a pen defense. of course, i'm no expert, and probably would be ruthlessly mauled by this chihuahua.
I've been attacked by a dog that weighed about 50 pounds, and he was much stronger than I thought. And as soon as I stopped struggling and fighting back, he relaxed his grip on my wrist. I didn't have time to get my hands around his neck, also a difficulty considering an attacking dog is also going to be defending his jugular and I doubt you'll slip your hands past his mouth to his neck.
You've watched Cops. Are the dogs in more of a frenzy when the dude is screaming and kicking and trying to run, or when he has given up?
cops is a terrible example. the dogs rely almost completely on the commands of the handler, who is always calling for them to attack, bite, take down, whatever once of the leash. on the leash, the dogs trail the scent and are controlled. most of the time, after attacking, it takes the dog a while to settle down and stop attacking, despite the commands of the handler. now, i am not speaking of all dogs here, just those on cops.
as i was once told by a cop, "you're lucky, we were about to release the dog. if we had, one of you would have gotten bit."
i realize that dogs are strong. but, i'll risk grabbing that dog by the jaw, snoot, eyes, ears and whatever else i can grab. i'm not going out like a punk. we're both losing parts ya know!
okay, now that i've stepped back from gangster rap, i'll ask jay to chime in with his story about his uncle's rotweiller and their confrontation.
I got 11 out of 17. I think I need to watch more discovery channel or animal planet because my info on shark attacks was not correct. I thought you were suppossed to hit it in the nose??
Also Adam is right about the dogs. Most dogs have very strong jaws. Haven't you heard the stories about pitbulls not letting go of their victims even after being mortally wounded. You guys need to learn to submit and walk away from the dog.
Yeah, that's the story I was thinking of-- the Rottweiler freaked out because I was in my uncle's garage at his farm and none of the family was out there (they were inside). He was posturing and everything, and I was ignoring him as much as I could-- just playing it cool. But then he got between me and the door to inside. I was like, "well, I'm just going to walk past you there, dog." The dog, "Shaq," jumped at me and I, not to be out-done, lunged for him. Show no fear, you know? I grabbed that turkey's face with both hands, one hand on the lower jaw and one on his upper jaw and face, covering his eyes as much as I could and holding his mouth open. Holding tightly, because I had pieces of both hands inside his mouth. It's the classic bull-by-the-horns or Tiger-by-the-tail, I don't know. I just know I couldn't let him go or I was going to get my ass bit. So my other uncle went in and got someone. But yeah, I held that dangol' dog's mouth and face for a while, and I'd do it again.
Anyway, like I said earlier, several dogs at once, that's a different deal. But one dog-- I'm fighting and if I get bit I'll get bit swinging. By the way, dogs can't take a punch either. Their noses are sensitive. Like Sharks- Heather, I'm with you on the punching a shark. Hell, now that I think about it, I'd like to take a swing at a bear too. There's a lot of animals out there that I've never punched.
jay,
how about a donkey?
i got a 12. cool. that was my soccer (and volleyball, and water polo) number.
