Left to die: 71 days in the desert | Ricky Megee


Listen Later

Today's case will talk about a young guy who survived alone for more than two months in the Australian desert. I don't know if you know the program Naked and Afraid where couples try to survive together for 21 days in an isolated place. There's the Naked and Afraid XL version where there's a larger group and they have to survive for 40 days. Interestingly, each participant in this program is entitled to take a single utensil as an auxiliary tool. It can be whatever you want... rope... lighter... sneakers... knife... but it can only be one per person. But why am I saying this? Because in today's case, this guy survived in a desert without any equipment or any tools for 71 days, alone. That’s almost twice as long as Naked and Afraid XL usually does. Today I will talk about the struggle for survival of Ricky Megee.
