This is the first picture of the 'Miracle Man of the Pacific' - the fisherman who survived on turtle blood, raw fish and seagull flesh for more than a year as he drifted helplessly across the world's largest ocean.
He stumbled ashore today since he's been lost in sea since December 2012, and all he could say was 'I'm alive - I'm alive and I can't believe it.'
When asked about his ordeal he simply replied: 'I cannot remember much about my journey. It has all gone into one thought - the sea, the sea.'
And what gave him hope to survive such harsh conditions for 14 months: Jose said that thoughts of his family kept him alive. He said: 'I know they would have been worried about me, thinking that I was dead. Yes, I know I am so lucky to be here, alive'
He's under intensive medical care now. |
He started the shark hunt with two other teenage friends, age 15 and 18. But not too long he watched them die from the unbearable heat of the sun. Jose continued his own struggle for survival that was to endure for week after week, month after tortuous month, as he was forced to drink his own urine and pick ravenously at the raw flesh of seagulls.
let them check him well he must have gone physco by now..
