WOMAN LOST IN AUSTRALIA’S FOREST FOR 5 DAYS SURVIVES ON A BOTTLE OF WINE AND
LOLLIPOPS

THE WOMAN PLANNED A SHORT-DAY TRIP SO SHE HAD PACKED A COUPLE OF SNACKS, LOLLIES
AND A BOTTLE OF WINE.



A woman’s incredible survival story who was stranded in Australia’s forest for
five days is going viral on the Internet. The 48-year-old woman, Lillian,
survived on a bottle of wine and lollipops. Victoria Police reported that
Lillian’s vehicle was stuck in mud after she took a wrong turn and reached a
dead-end road. Since there was no mobile coverage in the area, Lillian could not
request assistance. After Lillian failed to make her daily call to her loved
ones, they became concerned and alerted the authorities. This lead to extensive
police searches that eventually led to her location.

Australia’s forest for five days, used her car’s heater overnight to keep
herself warm. (Twitter/@VictoriaPolice)

“Lillian was found a good 60 kilometers away from the nearest town, and due to
health issues, she was unable to try and walk for help, so stayed with her car,”
Wodonga Police Station Sergeant Martin Torpey said in an official statement.

The statement further adds, “She was only planning a short-day trip so had only
taken a couple of snacks and lollies with her but no water. The only liquid
Lillian, who doesn’t drink, had with her was a bottle of wine she had bought as
a gift for her mother so that got her through. While she couldn’t move her car,
she was able to use the heater overnight give her some warmth.”

The Victoria Police even shared aerial footage of the region where the Lillian
was found with the caption, “See the moment Air Wing located a woman, who was
missing for five days in dense bushland. Yesterday afternoon, Air Wing were
conducting a sweep of the hilly terrain when they spotted Lillian’s car at the
end of a dirt road in the Mitta Mitta bushland.”




The clip opens to show Lillian waving at a helicopter. Soon, a police van
arrives on the scene. As the video progresses, the officers can be seen
approaching Lillian and leading her to the van. She was later taken to a
hospital for medical observation and treatment of dehydration.


TAKE A LOOK AT THE TWEET BELOW:






Since being shared on May 6, the tweet has collected over one lakh views.
Additionally, it has raked a plethora of likes and comments.


HERE’S HOW PEOPLE REACTED TO THE TWEET:

“Oh how wonderful to see such good news. I think I would have hugged the Police
officers. So glad Lillian is in safe hands now,” posted an individual. Another
added, “Emotional video to watch, What a wonderful job you all did.” “These sort
of stories make me so happy, an antidote to the other stuff that bombards us.
Well done Victoria police and everyone who helped find Lillian,” expressed a
third.

A fourth wrote, “Wow! Having been on a few land searches! you can’t describe the
feeling of finding someone and returning them to their loved one.
Congratulations to the Vic Police and the search teams.” “Smart for Lillian to
have stayed with her car,” commented a fifth.
