This clearly quite intelligent child made a hilariously NSFW desert survival guide

If Bear Grylls, Chief Scout and all round shouty survival man, has ever taught us anything, it is: always be prepared and, especially, always be prepared to do something gross if you need to survive.

When one youngster called Alex was assigned a "Creative Thinking Project" at school, which asked how they would survive in the desert by mimicking the water-gathering skills of animals, he actually came up with some quite savvy ideas.

Alex would go about this by 1) digging a big hole, and 2) by cutting into a cactus.

However, it is point 3 that has piqued the interest of the Reddit community where the picture was uploaded.

Now Bear Grylls may have done some weird things in his time, but drink "pp" from a giant floating penis probably isn't one of them...
