Otherwise it loses its point, I would say. The point is exactly to try to figure out how you would act in such a situation. Of course your thinking is biased already, perhaps even subconsciously, by you having read the books, but some amount of good guessing is possible still for sure.
Well, thinking realistically, half of us would go down with colds and things like that, simply because we are used to our warm comfy beds, heating, and that sort of things.

And even more realistically, I'd drown myself in the Midgewater Marshes. Can't stand mosquitos in large quantities. And no bug-spray available in ME.
