This is Adventure Survival Blanket an excellent and packable emergency blanket designed to
accommodate two people. Much more durable than the cheap mylar
blankets, this blanket is more resistant to tears and punctures, though
one should still be careful when handling it. Not a bivy, this is a
rectangular sheet that offers tremendous flexibility. These are the
features I especially like:
* Large size - Measuring a full 5 X 8 feet, this is a large sheet that offer the flexibility to shelter two people together. With this size, you can also use it to create an emergency shelter, use for signaling, collect water (either from rain or a condensation trap), etc. I prefer the larger two-person size as it gives me more options for its use. I can always cut it down slightly to use the material for other things in addition to sheltering.
* Durability - This need not be a single use item. Unlike cheaper emergency blankets, this is tear resistant material that will still reflect body heat. (up to 90% according to the manufacturer) While it is still very thin, a minor tear or hole does not spell the end of its usefulness. It can be re-folded and placed back into its bag.
* Color - Reflective on the inside, it is a highly visible red on the outside.
* Instructions - I really like that instructions for use are actually printed on the sheet itself: Nothing to get lost or misplaced, the instructions are right there and they cover more than just sheltering from the cold. This alone could be a lifesaver for some.
* Reusable bag - The bag that this sheet comes in is tough and resealable. Not only does it allow you to fold and store the blanket, but you can also use it to collect water, use as a sucking wound bandage, etc.
One doesn't need to be completely lost and in dire peril to use this; there are many circumstances whether on a day hike or longer excursion where this piece of kit could come in handy to make you more comfortable, safer, or more secure. Compact and durable, this blanket weighs only a few ounces; as a disaster preparedness item, this belongs in your day hike pack, camping gear, and car and home kits. Highly recommended.More detail

If you are ever in a life or death situation having a first aid kit will be very important. Knowing what to have in it to prepare for a bad situation is vital. This list may not be everything that you will need, but it will help.
