Hypoxia. The temperature in the desert is high, so matches should be able to catch fire, but they didn’t. Don’t ask me why; I don’t know either. :lol
The desert is so hot, what does he need matches for!
Don’t ask me how I died; the match might just be a joke. Matches can be used to burn wood for warmth (at night), or to send distress signals (flares). Die of thirst, die of hunger, die of disease; depending on the situation, it could also be quicksand – anything is possible.
Calling for help? You haven’t been to the desert, have you? The light from that match head at night was long ago obscured by the starlight
I agree with you – everything else is just meant to mislead you; P
