Two brothers Matthew, 22 and Andrew, 18, had attempted to climb 10,000ft to the summit of a volcano in Bali to see the sunrise but got lost on the way down. They went missing for 40 hours after their phones went dead. However, after an incredible rescue mission, the boys were eventually found "weak, but alive" thanks to survival tips they learned online from adventurer Bear Grylls. Now, after returning home Matthew and Andrew are on the sofa alongside their mum Katherine.

    Always tell someone when you should be back. Always. So many stories ended badly when they didn’t need to, all because people didn’t say where they were going, went off course without warning others, and didn’t say when they should be back.

    That mountain is very crowded with many villages and farms around it. Most climbers die there due to accidents or hypothermia. The rainforest weather can change dramatically from hot and humid to sudden cold and heavy rain. Always prepare for the worst when you trying to do something dangerous in un familiar environment.

    normally a headline like this would say the name of the volcano, which makes me question whether they were defying the laws and that the 'lights of the tourists' may well have been the lights of the locals doing a sacred ceremony. Either way, the Balinese are getting sick to death of tourists that have no respect for the culture and traditions and of the people. Saying 'our Dad was an Australian' let me give you the tip - if an Aussie made this mistake they would be so deeply embarrassed they wouldn't be going on the news about it, they'd be really quiet and probably only speak about it in hushed tones after a few drinks. All brains, no commonsense, and no respect. Not to mention - with currency conversions a tour guide is as cheap as chips, and to not hire one is just completely and utterly tight. and they are coming to Australia in the worst part of our winter. Nice. I imagine that it will be great. Bring your woollies, its harsh. edited to give a tip: when you are 'despatching to the oceans' .. do NOT stand on the rocks. the waves get really big and rock fisherman from overseas get swept out and drown fairly regularly.

    Surviving 40 hours in the jungle 😂 sounds like a great time don’t know what all the fuss is about
  • 40 hours? That's still miles from death by dehydration being a concern rofl. "survived"... jeez.
  • @vizveebee
    Great brothers, obviously well brought up. God ..... and Bear Grylls was with'em! 😉 Good one boys, you'll remember your nice world trip together .❤‍🩹
  • @tiote_paris6106
    I'm surprised they survived school never mind 40 hours on top of a Volcano
  • @sophocles1198
    I couldn't survive 40 hours watching Jerry Springer reruns.
  • @deef3430
    Both phones started to run out battery, should have switched one off , then would have had a backup.

    2:14 are we sure they didn’t wanna choose that route knowingly, thinking they’d get a more private experience? I know of someone who did something similar. They went on a closed route up a mountain so they could avoid tourists. Had this huge slice of mountain all to themselves. Thankfully it didn’t go badly for them, but it could’ve, and no one would’ve known where to look for them. I hope it wasn’t that and wasn’t willful choices that got them there. If so, I did believe they should be held financially liable for any costs of the rescue. If not..well.. still people, do your research. Our lives are so easily lost. Ill planning speeds that up exponentially.

    Just wondering how many commenting here have any idea of travel in Indonesia away from full on tourist areas. They seem to be loo,ing at things simplistically.
