This collection of extraordinary tales of survival is guaranteed to astound and inspire you in equal measure. Meet ordinary people who have found extraordinary strengths facing seemingly impossible challenges - like the woman who fell from the sky, or the man who floated 300 miles out to sea after the Asian tsunami.
What is it about some people that they seem born survivors, or how does someone find the incredible strength from within not to give up on hope against all odds? Are some people just lucky? These and many other true stories demonstrate the strength we all possess to come through our life's toughest challenges, and the precious wisdom that results from surviving.
This book is based primarily on conversations with survivors and experts around the world - you too can take the Survivor Profiler to discover your Survivor IQ at: //www.survivorstrengths.com.

Seem the author read Deep Survival and decided write is own version. Also the book sets up an online test to see your survival profile. But only then do you find out you need an access code which only comes with the hard copy not the ebook. Then again this doesn't matter as the website address no longer works. So bit of a rip off. Save your cash and get Deep Survival.
