  dumb ass.You almost always have a staple with you somewhere if you have anything at all.This guy is just showing you how you might save your life someday and you wanna be a jerk.Don't say it can't happen to you because it will happen to somebody and if you say that then you are a nobody

Excellent
It's little tips like these that can come in handy. Survival isn't about know how to do a certain set of techniques. It's about have a database of materials and uses in your head that can be combined for a productive purpose. We now know one more thing a AA can be used for.

just wondering this...
does it NEED to be a staple, or can it be other metal things that can bend, such as a paperclip, or possibly, even the part of the battery shell that you pulled off?

missing something
Battery, staple... and a knife! (and paper and tinder)
Why do people always forget the tools you need and just state the comestibles?

- Because
  you don't need a knife to do this, it just helps. If you don't have tinder available, there's not going to be anything to burn.

  It's possible to do with just fingers and teeth, but that takes a lot longer.
