Fisherman Survives 11 Days at Sea in Freezer

A video making rounds on the web shows the remarkable moment a fisherman was rescued after surviving 11 days lost at sea in a freezer. Romualdo Macedo Rodrigues' made a quick decision to hop in the kitchen appliance when his boat began to take on water and sink. He did not have any food or water with him, and floated aimlessly in the sea for 11 long days until a vessel spotted the light colored freezer box. He had traveled 280 miles from where his boat went down. "This fridge, for me, was God. A miracle," he said. The rescue boat's crew rushed to Rodrigues' aid and provided him with water and food.
