Which excerpt from “everyday survival” uses hyperbole for effect?

everyday survival

be careful who you go into the backcountry with. some people just have it stamped on their foreheads: “i am going to die in a wilderness accident.”

acting cool is not the same as being cool. as the head of training for the navy seals once said, “the rambo types are the first to go.”

take tasks that require no thought and re-invent them so that you have to think. this bears repeating: survival is not about equipment and training alone.

the concept of surrender is at the heart of the survival journey. while that may sound paradoxical, it starts to make sense when you realize your limitations.
