Indonesian teenager survives 49 days adrift at sea in 'fishing hut'
An Indonesian teenager who looked after a fishing hut survived for 49 days at sea by cooking fish over wood taken from his vessel, it has emerged.
Aldi Novel Adilang was on the hut 125km (77 miles) off the Indonesian coast in mid-July when heavy winds caused its moorings to snap, casting the 18-year-old adrift.
He ended up thousands of kilometres away near Guam, where he was eventually picked up by a Panamanian vessel.
