A Brazilian tourist was rescued after being trapped in a legendary bus told in the book and film Into The Wild.

Reporting from The Star, Monday (20 April 2020), a man named Gabriel Dias Da Silva, a tourist from Brazil, was found starving and cold in the bus. His condition is similar to the character of Christopher McCandless in the story of Into The Wild written by Jon Krakauer.

Da Silva was found thanks to the SOS signal on his GPS device. The 26-year-old man was evacuated by a rescue team in Fairbanks, Alaska.

When the rescue team received a signal from Da Silva, they immediately deployed the helicopter and combed the location of Da Silva. In that mission there was also a translator who helped the team communicate with Da Silva who was only able to speak Portuguese.

Despite his sad condition, Da Silva said that he was not injured or in danger. He was picked up on the banks of the Teklanika River.

Da Silva had apparently camped for more than a week and arrived at the bus location when the ice bridge there was still intact. Unfortunately, the flow of the river turned out to be heavy when he tried to go home.

In March, the Denali Borough City Council had requested that the bus be moved and rejected plans to build a bridge on the Teklanika River. But the Alaskan government rejected the proposal. The bus, which is located on the border of the Denali National Park and Nature Reserve, has finally remained there, but the road to it has been marked with danger.

Cases like that of Da Silva are not the first time this has happened. Amazingly, there are only tourists who are determined to visit there even though the nature is still wild. Previously there were two tourists who died, namely women from Belarus and women from Switzerland who were swept away in the Teklanika River.

McCandless is an adventurer who can survive for 114 days on the bus. He also died on the bus. The story became viral when the book Into The Wild was released in 1996 and was made public on the big screen in 2007.
