Re: Amazing story coming out of Sweden
Hi mikelincs
Yes totally amazing! The tempratures in that area can drop to minus 35 centigrade very easily, it's a wonder he did not freeze to death even before starvation!
It has since been discovered that he had packed his care for some kind of expedition out into the wilderness. No one know as yet why. It is also coming to light that he may be suffering from some mental disorder. People in the north of Sweden are considered to be quite tough when it comes to the elements, but this is ridiculous!

Re: Amazing story coming out of Sweden
...and the latest news is!
He wants to return to his car!
Apparently he had a bad break up with his girlfriend and packed his stuff up and headed out into the wilderness. After he was rescued and was in the hospital it snowed some more and a large snow plough didn't see his car and just ran in to it smashing the front in and breaking a window.
Obviously he has problems in all respects.
