Lucky man. Does that count as buschraft or survival? Just shows you have to try to be prepared for any emergency!

nice story! Sounds like this man was popular if he had that many people looking for him!

" a search was launched, involving the army, police, emergency services crews and Aboriginal trackers."

How many people carry loo-roll as a signalling device?

Maybe it was day glow orange paper? I'll have to remember that next time I intend to get stuck up a tree Everything has to have more than one use in your kit, doesn't it? It's not normally much use for anything else but wipe your... , but now it's got a new lease of life as a rescue device.. Maybe Woodlore will start selling the stuff soon........

Now there's a fella after my own heart. Properly prepared for the rigours of outdoor life he made sure that he had his baccy tin and his R-swipe on him at all times !

Just goes to show that when the **** folks can be pretty inventive and resourcful.
I like the "I'm not falling out of this tree..." quote too !
