[ link to www.express.co.uk] A survey shows millennials are missing out on practical skills such as map reading or fishing, compared to their grandparents’ generation. More than half of young adults were unable to tie a single knot and 40 per cent had never swum in open water, despite Britain being an island nation. The poll, conducted ahead of the London Boat Show, found simple life skills have been left behind with advances in technology. Researchers also found that most people under the age of 44 prefer to use Google Maps and Sat Navs to get around, but half of over-55s stick to a paper street map. Just a third of the 2,000 surveyed know how to spark a flame by natural means, with less than a third having caught their own fish or seafood. Quoting: MAN BUN DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM 71122649 They couldn't even tie a knot?! Wth??
