A young couple has been miraculously rescued after they were stranded in a snow-covered California forest for five days. Maia Herman-Kitami and Carlos Hernandez, from San Francisco, went snow camping on January 30 at Mendocino National Forest. The following day they tried to venture further into the forest but their Jeep got stuck in the mounting piles of snow. The duo tried to dig out their car from the snowbank for hours, but to no avail. 'As we reversed, the car got stuck,' Maia said. The couple survived by huddling in their car, rationing food, and drinking melted ice. They had no cellphone service, so huddled in their car for warmth in the freezing temperatures, drank melted snow, made a makeshift sign for help on a fast food bag, and relentlessly honked the car horn for help. 2 Likes

Special trucks are pictured above escorting the couple's yellow Jeep out of the forest. Then just 30 minutes later a search party of snow mobiles and trucks arrived. People heard the couple was missing in the area and wondered if they should go search for them. When they heard a public plea, they headed out on snowmobiles. They searched for four hours combing through over 20 miles in the forest on Monday and found another group looking for the couple. Soon afterwards, they found Maia and Carlos and their snow-blanketed car. Safe and sound! The Glenn County Sheriff's Office shared this picture after the duo were rescued 2 Likes

A Nation that values human life and practice love. Nigerians would spend half the time sending halfhearted prayers to the couple, going about their business and asking WHO SEND THEM. Police won't even care if you phone them. If there's heaven, Africans won't go there. 1 Like |

hahn:Nigerians lack human empathy, that's my point. At accident scene, half of the spectators would prioritize snapping pictures to actually rescuing the victims. The other half would be there wailing. |

There is no big deal in this, please lets stop worshiping white people there is nothing special about them. I hate inferiority complex and this thread reeks of it. |

There are some good episodes "I shouldn't be alive" on youtube for free. If you stay warm, limit over physical stuff, ration food and water you can stay alive in those conditions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEVQdtpJ4tg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2TbTsfCnGE |
