man up tree

SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian man tumbled into a bed of crocodiles and was forced to scurry up a tree where he stayed for seven days before being rescued by a military helicopter.
"Every night, I was stalked by two crocs who would sit at the bottom of the tree staring up at me," David George, 53, an outback cattle farmer told Reuters. "All I could see was two sets of red eyes about six metres away from the tree."

George said he survived on two sandwiches and tied himself to the tree so he wouldn't fall out while sleeping. ADVERTISEMENT



Eventually, he said he built a bed between two branches out of leaves, where he spent much of the time dozing, writing a letter to his son and praying to Aboriginal spirits before an Australian army helicopter eventually plucked him to safety.

George's plight started after he was thrown from his horse into a crocodile-infested swamp, he told local media.

After seven long nights, George said he ventured out of the thick scrub, where he was spotted by a helicopter involved in the search for him.
