IT WON’T HAPPEN TO ME
As many of us were kicking back enjoying some well-earned time off around a campsite last January, at least three fellow travellers were doing it tough in the Aussie outback. One couple got bogged in sand. Without enough water on board, they left their vehicle and then spent days lost in remote South Australia without food or water. Over the same period, a man got lost in Queensland. His car was bogged too. Having turned down the wrong track, he kept driving. Eighteen days later, he was found by a farmer.
All three individuals are incredibly lucky. They were found by third parties by sheer chance, and were all lost in remote areas where passing traffic and would-be saviours are as scarce
