You have to love that. “You have just endured hunger and very little water while floating around in an eskie (ice box) in the ocean. Congratulations on surviving. Now if you could please provide your passports and other identification papers, please…”

I wonder if they are really good friends now, bonded over the hardships they faced…or if they never want to see each other or speak of the incident again.

I was sitting in the pub when I saw this news clip and I could hardly believe it. Note that the men said they’d been floating around for a month. And yet one of them has the strength to swim to the rescuers? Hm.
