The man’s home for two months, snowed-in.

I think we may have found wolverine. A Swedish man went for a drive a little while ago, 19 December to be exact. Whilst on his drive, he was caught in a snowstorm which left him trapped in his car. On 17 February, just two days shy of two months in a car, he was found. Alive.

The man was found near the city of Umea, in the north of Sweden, after some snowmobilers came across what they thought to be an abandoned vehicle. They had the shock of their lives when they dug open a window and found a man inside, shivering in a sleeping bag. He said he had been trapped in the car since 19 December.

This is an amazing feat – doctors say that a human can only really survive for four weeks without food, and that the man must have gone into some sort of hibernation mode – where his metabolism slowed right down to almost nothing. I can only assume that he ate snow as a source of getting water. I also imagine at some point his car battery ran out and the heater stopped working. What on earth do you do in a sleeping bag for two months?

The man is now recovering in hospital. His reasons for becoming trapped remain unknown.
