Survey finds millennials lack basic survival skills

In the coming zombie apocalypse, safe spaces may be in short supply, so millennials will have to take shelter under their Spoonk mats and crack open their cell phones in hopes there's creamy nougat inside. According to a recent survey -- this is shocking, I know -- millennials lack even the most basic survival skills. Apparently SnapChat offers no tutorials on how to build a snare trap. The survey, conducted ahead of the London Boat Show, found even the most basic of life skills are quantum physics to most millennials. More than half were unable to tie a single knot and 40 percent had never swum in open water.

Well to be fair in a zombie apocalypse, 99% of people (not just milennials) wouldn't survive past a year.

They can thank their parents for not teaching them the basic survival skills and putting the country in the position they are today.

A survey would probably also say that most people who were raised in a urban area of a wide variety of ages probably don't have basic survival skills.

This wouldn't have anything to do with widespread urbanization among the population and the general lack of exposure to certain elements and circumstances, would it?

While this is pretty fricking stupid, I'd be willing to bet South LA's snowflake population as a whole is better off than most.

Im not in armed forces and I can start a fire and build a shelter.
I have also caught a rainbow trout with my bare hands using the same method that leo did in the revenant.

To some degree. Or kids not taking interest in scouting.

I don't need a survey to know millennials don't know how to people or care for themselves?

With how much modern technology gets advertised, can you blame them?
Who would want to go learn about sticks when they are given an iPad at age 4?
