As far as rough nights go, this man's experience takes some beating.
Excusing the fact that he doesn't get mauled by an over-protective Grizzly, and that he doesn't have to sleep inside the hollowed out corpse of a freshly-dead horse, we can certainly see why
The Sun are likening this to
The Revenant.
Janveer Sandhu, from East London, has explained how his survival instincts kicked in as he found himself stranded outdoors for a night following a ski accident in Bulgaria.
As if smashing his face against a tree and ending up completely alone in the Bulgarian wilderness wasn't bad enough, the 30-year-old later had to ditch his heavy ski boots in a bid to escape a pack of wolves.
"My face went straight into the tree. My nose was bleeding. I was completely alone," he explained.
"I saw three wolves coming my way. My survival instinct kicked in. My heart was beating so fast.
"I started to move away but I realised I was going too slowly. I decided to give up on my skis and my heavy boots.
"My adrenaline had kicked in. I wasn’t thinking about my feet — I just wanted to save my life.
"At some points I was buried up to my waist in the snow.
"When night fell I couldn’t see a thing. My body was tired. I did everything to get out of where I was. I decided to find a safe space and to wait until morning.
"I was so thirsty I was eating snow to keep hydrated. I was trying to keep myself awake.
"I just thought ‘I’m going to live, I am alive, I am not going to die in the mountains’. I cheated death."
Fortunately, Mr Sandhu was able to hitch a lift to a nearby ski shop after he came across a road.
Understandably, doctors were extremely concerned about his feet after they were exposed to the cold for such a long period of time.
Although he is currently being treated for frostbite in a hospital in Essex, doctors in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia were able to save his legs from amputation.
Needless to say, we wish him a speedy recovery.
