Surviving in the Australian wilderness: Lollipops and wine as a survival strategy.

TL;DR Summary
A woman survived five days stranded in the bush in Australia by eating sweets and drinking a single bottle of wine. Lillian Ip set off on what was meant to be a short trip on Sunday, travelling through dense bush in Victoria state. She hit a dead-end after taking a wrong turn, and her vehicle became stuck in the mud. Ms Ip - who doesn't drink - only had a bottle of wine in the car as she was planning to give it as a present. She was discovered by emergency services on Friday as they flew overhead as part of a search.
