Seriously? A rental car in Alaska that didn't come with snow tires? Seriously?  :o

  Now that is funny!  Stupid even..

Sason:
My morning paper tells they found a man in a car totally covered with snow, up north.

You won't believe this: he's survived there since the beginning of December!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hasn't had anything but snow to eat since 19th December!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He had a good sleeping bag, which is how he survived the cold.

He was totally emaciated when they found him.

 :o indeed.

Seriously? Since Dec 19th? That's two whole months. Can a human survive that long without anything to eat?

If the car was totally covered, the snow would have worked as isolating layer, the car would be like an iglu. That helps with the cold, but how the heck did he get air then?

It's a strange story.
But whatever the details are, the poor guy went thru hell and must have lost half of his mind by now.

I agree.  The article wasn't very detailed, but it did say that the snow worked as insulation.
I guess a car isn't built tight enough to not allow air in, but I don't know.

I have a small suspicion the whole thing is a hoax, time will tell.

Yeah, that thought came to my mind, too.
Maybe your news will give follow-ups.
