The Outback is Australia’s version of the Amazon jungle in South America. Getting lost in this interior region of the Land Down Under is risky, but some have managed to survive unharmed.

German tourist Carolina Wilga’s van got stuck in mud in the Karroun Hill Nature Reserve, Western Australia state, on 29 June, CBS News reports. The 26-year-old managed to call her family before losing contact as she got lost after wandering around.

Police and volunteers conducted an aerial and ground search for Wilga. On 10 July, police spotted her abandoned van 22 miles north of the farming commune of Beacon and a ground search was launched in the areas around the vehicle, according to CBS News.

The next day, a local found her wandering in a forest trail and Wilga was finally rescued.

Meanwhile, a different type of rescue was needed for an unusual emergency at the Mason Community Center in Mason, Ohio, USA, on 7 July.

A little boy found a way to surely snag a stuffed toy in a claw machine.

The coin-operated machine is played by positioning a hanging claw over a stuffed toy inside and pressing a button to drop it on the prize. The claw then lifts the toy and drops it in the prize chute for the player to take it.

Usually, the claw’s hold on a toy is not tight, which allows it to slip from the claw’s grasp and fall.

The child managed to slip inside the machine through the small opening of the prize chute and grab a stuffed toy. But then he was stuck and bystanders had to call for help to get him out, New York Post (NYP) reports.

The video of the rescue showed firefighters and officers breaking open the back panel of the machine as the boy was standing inside, according to NYP.

The rescuers eventually freed the trapped tot unharmed.
