I would like to bring to your attention John Gillatt of Bolton,
Manchester, England.He recently hit the headlines in the UK after getting
lost in the Malaysian rain forest for 5 days without a
map or compass, or any other basic survival material.
To cap it all he said that "he did not realise there
were leopards in the jungle, poisonous snakes and
tarantulas."Not bad for someone describes as an "English
biologist".
The intrepid Mr. Bolton is profiled in the The Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph, and elsewhere, including his own web site.
