Is there a source of fresh water? Three weeks : three days.
Upvoted for the programming language reference alone.

assuming you can catch fish, the eyeballs are good source off freshwater? or if there something you can store water, you can use condesation/evaportation maybe?
you need at least 37 eyeballs worth of water a day i think
the eyeballs are good source off freshwater
That is definitely a very fun fact. But the joke in my comment was that I can’t hunt or forage for any sort of food. I was referencing the guideline that a person can survive 3 days without water or 3 weeks without food.
This absolutely depends on conditions on the island.
Antarctica, and you packed for Tahiti
It’s a magical place
I understood that reference.
So no Mangos?
Definitely the rest of my life.

You can survive three minutes without breathable air (unconsciousness), or in icy water.
You can survive three hours in a harsh environment (extreme heat or cold). You need shelter!
You can survive three days without drinkable water.
You can survive three weeks without food. But, many people have gone for over 40 days during fasting and have survived.

I dread to think what state your body is in by that point, it has to be consuming itself to keep going.
You CAN survive, but the larger question is would you WANT to survive?
I’m assuming “can survive if you get immediate medical treatment at the end.”
This guy went 382 days, but did have water and vitamins, just no food.
you need water, and cant last 3 weeks without it.
Knowing how strong and smart I am I’m going to guess about three hours.
I’ve got rudimentary survival skills that could keep me alive in the wilderness on the NA continent. But in a resource-limited island, it would depend on what’s available. Beyond that, this question is too open-ended to answer.
Less than six hours, I have diabetes.
To quote xkcd, “On one hand, every single one of my ancestors going back billions of years has managed to figure it out. On the other hand, that’s the mother of all sampling biases.”
And ok, sure, the more recent ones haven’t had to rough it, but if you go back just a few generations you get to someone who actually knows something about something. Still, I think I could suss out at least enough to keep going until I inevitably got injured or sick or mauled by a wild animal.
That said, I’m very aware that this might just be unearned and unmerited arrogance, like the guys who say they could take a point off of Serena Williams on the tennis court.
If I played a set against Serena there is a decent chance I get one point.
She will hit 12 aces/unreturnable serves and 12 return winners. That’s going to happen. But during that she could double fault or miss one return. She’s not going to be trying that hard, playing me definitely isn’t going to put her “in the zone.” And my serves will be so weak and pathetic compared to what she’s used to that she’ll have to generate more pace for those winners than she normally would. I like my chances of one going long or wide.
Now, if the question is “could you hit a winner against Serena,” lol fuck no.
Assuming it’s like a small-ish tropical island and i’m the biggest predator around, with plenty of fruits and also a pond with fresh water and fish i can eat, i’d say i’ll die in the middle of the first night from hypothermia because i can’t tolerate cold.
Maybe it’s a nice warm tropical island with perfect weather all year round.
TIL tropical islands are freezing cold… ;-)
People got lost in tropical forest and die from hypothermia all the time, night is cold especially when it’s windy and it always caught people off guard because the day is hot.
I’m so dead.
I do not have the energy for this, I’m depressed as fuck, anxious as fuck, pre-diabetic (I think) and I would just feel so weak and crumble and die. My body starts shaking the moment I process the previous foods. I would probably think its a weird dream and try to “kill myself” to exit the dream.
Very Very Dead.
I have zero survival skills even if my depression gets magically cured.
Humans aren’t meant to play this game solo.
If there is clean water and some food I can figure out how to harvest relatively easily then I like my odds.
Assuming it’s not an Arctic island. Then I have until winter.
My phone can go two days if I make it stretch, but once it dies and I lose access to music I’d probably just drown myself
