    If you were asthmatic, you could use it as a spacer for more efficient inhaler usage.

    Fill it with water and use it to start a fire...

    For those cold nights when you don't want to crawl out of your warm sleeping bag... A 4U2P bottle.

    • Store water (clean or contaminated)
    • Store berries and small edibles
    • Fishing Float
    • Floating message container
    • Lobster/Crab pot marker
    • Funnel Trap
    • Filter housing
    • Sauce holder
    • Raft/floatation
    • Pee bottle (when it's just too cold to venture out of the tent/hammock)

    hello,
    I had this image on file. Plastic Bottle 'Green' (recycled) House.
    Thinking along the same lines trimming the bottle into tiles then
    constructing a lean to or similar type shelter?
    I'd imaging you would have to drink a lot of 2 litre Cider bottles
    for your construction makes a good Bothie!
    Regards
    David

    You could boil water or cook food in it.

    Melt it and make a nice necklace, which you could trade for a gun, then rob a bank and live in luxury in Northern Cyprus for the rest of your life?
