Speedhook SURPC Survival Instruction Playing Cards

The Speedhook Survival Instruction Playing Cards combine a regular deck with compact emergency-reference information created by survival instructor Frank G. Heyl. Each 3.5 x 2.5-inch card has a safety or survival tip, so the deck can be used for training and reference without giving up its normal card-game function.

The suits organize the information by subject. Hearts cover breathing, bleeding, shock, hypothermia, and frostbite. Diamonds address fractures, wounds, heat illness, heart attack, bites, stings, and burns. Clubs focus on preparation, campsites, shelters, fire starting, and signaling, while Spades cover water, food, and becoming unlost.

That organization makes the deck more useful than a loose set of unrelated tips because related topics are easy to find by suit. It is compact enough for a survival kit, vehicle, camp box, or training bag and can be used to reinforce emergency knowledge during ordinary downtime.
