Surviving A Quake For Dummies

Since the earthquake in Haiti, we have been flooded with sad news. This one contributes to the few stories of hope and humour. A man trapped under the rubble was pulled out after 11 days. But just how did he survive?

On beer and cookies. Wismond Exantus, was trapped in a grocery store where he worked on the ground floor of Hotel Napoli. He survived 11 days by drinking beer, cola and eating cookies. The shop cashier quickly dived under the desk when the quake started. His brother alerted the Greek rescue team when he heard a voice coming from the rubble.

Even though the Haitian government called off all rescue operations, some international teams still stayed to help. This story creates hope for those who still believe their family and friends are still alive.
