Say A Plane Load Of Body Builders and Fat People Crash in the Wilderness...

[curling]

And there is plenty of water but there is not food. Would the fat people have an advantage over the body builders because of all the fat they have on them? So inotherwords they could live longer without food(unless of course the bodybuilder overpowered them and ate them) than the body builders could?

Also how long could you live without food? I have heard of people fasting for 40 days so I wonder what is the life expectancy of say someone that is average body fat?

I thought it was something like 2 days without water, 2 weeks without food...

I guess that in the given scenario (assuming the bodybuilders didn't eat the fat people -- and that no food was availble to forage or hunt) that it might come out even due to the higher health of the bb group (although they would have faster metabolisms and lower bf).

We'd as bodybuilders would have to protect our muscle so we'd be lifting fat people. You know, squatting, pressing, curling little fat kids and all. I'm sure some would get dropped and we'd have to carve up some people porterhouse steaks.

The stong would eat the week. There's alot of concentrated calories in one obese person. Plenty of protein too.

BTW, to answer your question, a significant amount of fat AND muscle is the "best" way to survive. I think Lee Priest in the off season would com out on top.

No this thread is giving them an advantage over us. See if a fat person reads this, then he can say I am justified in eating these extra 5 hotdogs and two gallons ice cream because I could live longer than those dang fitness dudes if we crashed on a deserted Island.

Assuming no cannibalism, the hefer crowd would survive the longest.

I dunno, weak hearts, weak bodies dealing with survival conditions in possibly extreme climate conditions... Having to find shelter, hike, etc...
