AnushkaAgainst The Odds
Amazon Forests faced terrible floods then. Ghinsberg was caught with this one and he thought he would make it just like the fall from the waterfall. He narrowly escaped the flood and he would have barely caught his breath that he stumbled in the bog of quicksand. This time he was sure that his end was near.
Battling With Life
Yosseph once more used his quick instincts and survivor skills to overcome the odds. He knew that even his luck won’t favor him anymore if he continued to face such deadly times again and again. Somehow, he managed this one as well but was worrying about his future and the haunting disasters he will have to face. With every passing day tracing for food became even tough.
Three Weeks In The Wild
It was almost his third week in the Amazon Jungle. By now, Yossi was drained completely physically and mentally. He lost his hopes to survive. It was the toughest week for him as he had no food and had absolutely no energy to move. He was now even suffering from a severely painful skin infection.
The Last Straw
The pain in his feet was unbearable and to distract himself from it, Ghinsberg shook his head against a tree full of fire ants. He could divert himself from the pain. But this relief was also short-lived as a plane went above him and over the jungle but did not see him. Ghinsberg lost all the hopes and sank him in a muddy bog as it was getting impossible to live and dying was the easiest option.
Worth Living
Just when Yosseph was about to give up, he started hallucinating about a girl he once loved. A mere thought of her was enough for Yosseph to raise his spirits again. He was pleasantly comforted by her apparent image, he’d talk to her, set up camp for her and imagined he was sleeping next to her. All this made him battle for his continuity.
Praying For Mercy
The last resort which Ghinsberg sought to was God. When he gave up on everything, he prayed to the mighty and begged for his mercy. He asked for his end-eternal death as it was unbearable to strive in this dark land. He never knew his dream would taste like that. And then at last something pleasing yet unexpected happened.
