Survived six days alone in the forest: The moment captured from the helicopter that moved everyone

A 17-year-old autistic boy who disappeared in Australia was found alive after six days. A helicopter crew spotted him sleeping on a rock and he was rescued safely. His mother joked: 'He's not going anywhere anymore.'

A 17-year-old autistic boy, William, who went missing during a camping trip in Australia, was found alive today (Thursday) after six days of surviving alone in a wooded, mountainous area. A police helicopter crew spotted him sleeping on a rock near a creek, and he was rescued safely using a cable. The boy left on Friday last week for a trip with his friend near the town of Walhalla in the state of Victoria, about 185 kilometers east of Melbourne. He left the campsite to get more equipment and did not return. More than 100 emergency personnel and volunteers participated in the search. Footage from the helicopter shows William shirtless, suffering from sunburn, wearing shorts and boots. He was found about two kilometers from the campsite. His mother, Elizabeth, joked: 'He's not going anywhere ever again.' The article is based on an AP news agency report and social media posts.
