I read an article in world news about 3 mexicans that survived 289 days adrift. Did anyone else hear of this?

Apparently they ate seagulls, drank rain, played music, and looked remarkably healthy when they were picked up after drifting across the entire Pacific. Shocked

no way. did they sale off the west coast of mexico or something. were they shooting for japan? i wonder how they celebrated birthdays and stuff cause thats a long time out at sea. i would have figured you the salt water would dry you out and youd starve way quicker.

what we dont know is that they started there trip with 5 overweight mexicans
