Dan Goss is a doomsday prepper. No,he doesn’t live in a bunker. No,he doesn’t dream of World War 3 happening.

He did,however,spend a lot of time as a child wondering what he’d bring if he were stranded on a deserted island: a high-carbon steel knife,a ferro rod fire starter and a cast-iron pot.

That time was well spent,the father-of-two from Liverpool told Metro,when he did become stranded on a deserted island. Well,his house during the coronavirus pandemic.

Suddenly,the thought of the world ending didn’t seem like such a distant idea.
