Missing teen found alive after 6 days in Australian bushland

Will is in very good spirits considering what he has been through. Six days lost in dense bushland here in Victoria, and it was pretty gruelling. We're talking really cold nights, but extremely hot days. He is suffering from severe sunburn. He's dehydrated, and he also has a tear in his windpipe. So he is being treated here at the hospital, but overall is doing quite well, and I think he's really keen to tuck into some McDonald's when he eventually can eat again. I actually spoke to Will a bit earlier myself on a Zoom from his hospital bed, and he was also pretty scared. He's like, I didn't know if people were looking for me, and I was just holding out hope that they were looking for me. He heard a few times that the chopper was going up above ahead of him, but he was so exhausted and was suffering from dehydration, he couldn't actually walk or continue climbing back up that hill. Officials have actually gotten quite emotional. I think for them, they put a lot of... Hope and anticipation into finding him but as it was almost a week since he disappeared it was getting to a pretty critical stage but I think they are absolutely elated when they saw him. They originally spotted his tackle box because the 17 year old became lost while trying, he was camping and he was retrieving some gear. He lost a bit of his way and then he actually fell down a cliff, that's where he stayed until he was rescued and it's just incredible that they were able to find him. I'm sure you've seen that video as well, the reunion between Will and his mum and that embrace I think says it all. There was a lot of hope and it's just so lovely to see that they were able to be reunited.
