Nope. I guess we all never know what we can do, but that is incredible. A good reminder to have a belt or lifejacket ON when out alone. I can not imagine how long that night must have been for him. His angle was on his shoulder.
Take care,

He stood an excellent chance of being rescued...

We all know that God protects fools and drunks... He was a shoo in for rescue...

And, it goes to show that there are big holes in Darwin's theory sabout who survives.

As soon as he got off that helicopter he should have spent his last dime on lottery tickets... That was the luckiest day of his life.
