Duct tape. The quintessential emergency item.

No self-respecting outdoors person would venture into the woods or onto the water without it.

No doubt you've used it to prevent blisters, wrap a sprained ankle, mend a ripped tent wall, tape a boot sole back on, silence the snoring of your tent mate...

But I ask you, intrepid wilderness veterans, have you ever thought to use duct tape as a belly remover, Preparation DT, a defibrillator (yes!), to prevent frostbite, as dental floss, for colostomy repair, budget dog repair and a hundred and one other creative uses.

As Kristen of N.Y. says, "Duct tape is the cure-all. Viva la duct tape!"

Indeed.

Forget work today and amuse yourself for the next few hours with The Duct Tape Guys.

Duct tape and teef. Two of the best inventions ever!

What ingenious things have you used duct tape for? (Keep it clean!)
