Let's see Bear Grylls top this one

A Swedish man has survived being trapped in his snow-covered car for two months without food. The car was found on Friday at the end of a forest track more than 1 km from a main road in northern Sweden. Police say the temperature in the area had recently dropped to -30˚C. The man, who was too weak to utter more than a few words, said he had been inside since the 19th of December. He may have survived by doing a combination of drinking melted snow and going into a state of hibernation like some animals do in the colder months. But at least he's recovering at Umea University Hospital, where staff say he is doing well considering the circumstances. In other news, Latvians have resoundingly rejected the option of making Russian the country's second official language.
