The British teenager who survived 12 days in Australia's wilderness says he was a "total idiot" for having ventured out into the wild completely unprepared.
Jamie Neale, is one lucky teenager, who has beaten the odds and survived 12 days in Australia's wilderness without supplies and warm clothes. Neale said he went on a hike with scarce food and water supplies, no cell phone, and light clothing. He also did not tell anyone where he was headed.
"In the U.K., you can walk for a day and you'd end up in a pub," Neale said. "Out here, you can get lost so easily. You should respect the fact, be more prepared and think about what you are doing a lot more."
