Could you survive on an island alone?

yes

yep. and the way everything is going in this country I think I would welcome it.
Now if it was like a shrunk down Australia where like 75% of the wildlife is poisonous or will kill you, that might be a different story.

Which island?
I'd lean more towards yes, I could survive.

Depends on the resources available.

Yes if large and somewhat resourceful with a fresh water source. The large would only be mental to think eventually someone will find me from the other side.

Do I get a satellite dish?

I think I have a reasonable expectation to survive just about every catastrophe, zombie apocalypse included.

Survive? Yes
Retain all sanity and sense of being? Iffy

Depends if there is a fresh water source and location of island.

I one hundred ten percent could survive as long as there were coconut trees (ie. water and food source).
Shelter would be an easy task.

Volleyball or no volleyball?

No, the isolation would kill me.
Posted on 3/12/14 at 9:14 am to tduecen
I'd survive for a while but eventually kill myself bc I have a fear of isolation.

So to sum up if there is food and water yes unless I get lonely.
Glad I checked in

I may be wrong but coconut is a natural diuretic and it may not be enough to survive on. Fresh water and tropical climate on a big enough island and I think I could make it.

I generally prefer to be alone, but not sure I could survive in total isolation. I would need a LOT of books to keep my mind stimulated. I could easily adapt and find food sources, but the isolation would eventually get to me.

water collects in coconuts. Coconut would be something to eat while you figured out how to catch fish...

you would die cause your weak missouri arms wouldn't be able to get you up the tree to get the coconuts and they wouldn't be ready to fall for 1.27 months.
ETA: and I think you would need fresh water as well, it is coconut milk, if I am not mistaken.
