🤯A Ukrainian sailor was rescued off the coast of Turkey almost a day after he fell overboard, Maritime Bulletin reports

Rescue boats, coast guard and aviation participated in the search operation. A request for assistance was sent to nearby vessels.

The next day, the Ukrainian was spotted and rescued by the crew of the dry cargo ship MOONLIGHT. The man spent about 20 hours in the water. He was taken to the hospital.

Imagine how cold that dude must have been after that much time in the water
