Ben T's survival story


Killer sheep are no match for Ben T and his spud peeler.
I have five minutes to pack. I can choose only three items to take with me. I know not where I am going, nor what dangers await me. I run to the pile of equipment and grab: a banana a potato peeler a rubber band and a torch. I am blindfolded during the helicopter journey. I have no idea where I am. I hear… the blades of the helicopter kept spinning loudly and deafening and the pilots shouting and discussing me.

The helicopter hovers a metre or so above ground and I am pushed out of the door. I tumble onto the ground and tear off my blindfold. I see… weeds everywhere and long brown trees as far as the eye can see. It is pouring with rain and lightning in the biggest jungle in the world.

I turn to see a pack of killer sheep advancing towards me. I reach into my pack and grab my potato peeler. Like a ninja I jump and attack all 999 killer sheep. I shear them all and they all run away naked and cold.

I come to a raging river. There is no way around, I must somehow cross the treacherous water. I reach into my pack and grab the longest rubber band in the world. I tie it to a tree and I pick up a melon on the ground and sling shot it across… it works, so I try it. I close my eyes and I sling across the river leaving the rubber band behind.

The menacing battle cry of a lone warrior pierces the silence. A heavily armoured giant charges out from behind some rocks. I reach into my pack and grab my banana. The giant bolts at me his armour rattles as he runs. I peel the banana and throw the skin on the ground, he trips up on the banana skin and runs away crying like a babe.
