Sample text

In a swamp with starving crocodiles. In a glass dome two kilometres under the sea when the glass starts to crack. In a space station with others when the oxygen starts to run out. Stranded in the middle of a blistering hot desert with no water to drink. Walking in the desert. Your camels have run off with all the food and water supplies. Swimming in the ocean, a massive wave pulls you out to sea. On an expedition looking at a tomb of a mummy. The mummy breaks through the lid. Climbing a mountain with nothing to hang on to.
