According to a bizarre new tale, a Turkish guy who went missing in a forest ended up joining the hunt for himself.
Beyhan Mutlu, 50, of Bursa's northern province, was reported missing on Tuesday when he wandered out inebriated in the forest from his group of friends, according to the Daily Sabah.
Mutlu ended up joining a group of volunteers who were assisting authorities in their search for him, according to the site.
Mutlu seemed perplexed when the volunteers began chanting his name, and inquired who they were looking for, according to Turkish news channel NTV.
He reportedly assured them, "I am here."
According to the news sites, when authorities discovered the man had formed his own search party, they gave him a lift home.
This isn't the first occasion that a missing person has coordinated their own search and rescue effort.
An Asian tourist who went missing in Iceland in 2012 was discovered by her own search team after she allegedly failed to recognise her own description.
