What If You Were The Last Person On Earth?

We can all agree we’ve all come across this fascinating question at some point in our life. 

The chances of you being the last human left on Earth are practically zero.

But, let’s say for whatever reason, you are the last human on Earth. So what do you do? Live in a fancy mansion? Eat all like a king? Search for other humans? Or Go to places you’re not allowed to visit? Oh, how about a visit to Area 51? How long would you last?

So you wake up one day and find that you’re the only person left in the world. So frecking cool, right? No rules, no regulations and no limits. You can do literally whatever you want.

But soon you’ll be bored and realize that you need to upskill yourself to survive. Below are a few points you should consider to start with:

A Place to live

There are many important things you need to take care of but first, let’s start with a shelter. You’d have a world of homes to choose from! So, where do you want to live? How about a place in the mountains followed by the rivers? As they say, always rush to the hills when nature turns its back on you or simply a place with a moderate climate.

Food and Water

Stores will be filled with canned food products that will last for decades. But some products like fruits and veggies will start to spoil pretty quickly. So eat your greens and your fruits first. If natural is more your style, start beefing up your farming skills before you run out of stock.

Now, how do we take care of water? You can collect all the freshwater bottles and bring them to your place. However, you’ll be soon run out of fresh water and will have to learn to purify it by yourself.

Travel Pass

Nope, there is no one to stop you from going anywhere! You might think that with no one stopping you, you could go anywhere using any fancy fast sports car. But wait, all those cast aside cars and motorboats you see around will be unusable in about 2 years when their fuel goes stale. It's better to find yourself a bicycle to get your resources in time and pedal the distance you can’t walk.

A friend

Since you’re the only human left who cannot find another human to talk to, what do you do? Well, get yourself a pet. Find a dog or a cat or even a parrot. At least they will answer you back in the form of bark or meow or a word that you taught that parrot.

Becoming Expert

Right now you depend on people a lot without even realizing it. But, in a world where you’re the last human, you’ll need to learn important skills like hunting, first aid, cooking and so many other things. You can visit the empty libraries to pick hundreds of books reading which you can learn a lot to improve your survival skills. It will be very hard at first but you will eventually become a survival expert.

Also, you will finally have the time to do anything that you want to do. Fishing, painting, doing pottery work or even write your own book and with your fancy stories.
