CNN —A Russian man has been rescued after 67 days adrift on a small boat in the bitterly cold Sea of Okhotsk, Russian authorities said Tuesday. The man’s brother and his teenage son died in the ordeal, according to Russian state media RIA Novosti, who named the survivor as 46-year-old Mikhail Pichugin. The rescued man’s wife told Russian state media that his weight could have played a role in his survival, given he weighed about 220lbs (100 kg). She told RIA that Pichugin and his late brother and nephew had enough food to last for about two weeks. He is “in serious condition, emaciated, but conscious,” the director of the fishing company that stumbled upon the adrift boat told RIA.

Un tânăr din Rusia a murit degerat în propria sa mașină, după ce s-a rătăcit în regiunea Iakutia, cunoscută pentru temperaturile extrem de scăzute. În vehicul se afla şi un adolescent care a supravieţuit, însă a fost transportat în stare gravă la spital. Tinerii au plecat din Iakutsk spre Magadan pe 28 noiembrie și au fost găsiți abia pe 5 decembrie. Nu este clar deocamdată de ce au deviat cei doi de la traseu și cum s-au rătăcit pe un tronson abandonat de autostradă. Potrivit autorităţilor, mașina avea radiatorul stricat, iar în timpul nopții, temperaturile au coborât până la minus 50 de grade Celsius.
