Thiago Crevelloni, a Brazilian from Curitibawas rescued by the Argentine police after getting lost in an inhospitable place with a lot of snow in the Patagonia. According to the local police authority, he was found walking in “extreme conditions” and “clear signs of hypothermia.” “In the midst of the intense cold and snow, the police of the Greek Gobrenor Police Station responded to an urgent call: a man of Brazilian nationality had been arrested and disoriented north of the locality after his vehicle was stuck in the snow,” the Argentine province, on Instagram, wrote. “He was quickly assisted and transported to the city to receive medical attention,” he said.
After traveling about 20 kilometers in this shortcut, his car was jammed in the snow and, afraid of being buried, he decided to go on foot. It was about five hours of walking, traveling 24 kilometers, until rescued.
“It started to snow hard and stopped to put the chains (on the tires). I continued, but it was windy, and the snow was getting denser. In a turn, the car hit a snow dune. It was all white, I couldn’t distinguish what was not,” he told Ao La Nación. “It was an extreme experience that marked me. By luck I had a happy ending.”
