1 . Survival light consisting of a disk equipped with a wick to be lit on the upper side of the disk and where the said disk is floating on the top surface of a combustible fluid that can reach the wick through holes connecting the lower and upper surface of the disk and where the combustible fluid is a layer on the top of a non-combustible fluid and where both the combustible and the non-combustible fluid and the named disk is inside of a container that is open on the top accessible to the atmospheric air. 
     
     
         2 . Survival light in accordance with  claim 1  characterized by trenches in the upper side of the disk leading the combustible fluid form the peripheral edges of the disk to the wick. 
     
     
         3 . Survival light in accordance with any of the foregoing claims characterized by vertically downward extending collar ensuring that the air trapped under the disk cannot escape. 
     
     
         4 . Survival light in accordance with any of the foregoing claims characterized by coloring additive to the combustible fluid.
