A sailor survived on a raft in the ocean for 133 days without water or food supplies
In 1942 a German submarine sank a British merchant ship. A Chinese sailor serving on it managed to jump overboard in his vest and then found a loose raft in the water. The raft's small supply of water and cookies quickly ran out. The sailor, drifting on the raft across the Atlantic Ocean, collected rainwater and ate raw fish, which he caught with a makeshift fishing rod, and once he managed to catch a seagull and suck the blood out of it. So he swam for 133 days until the raft washed up on the Brazilian coast.
