Tourists drank urine and swam 6 hours to survive

A group of 10 tourists, including two Britons, were forced to drink their own urine and swim for more than six hours after their boat sank in rough seas in Indonesia. Two foreign tourists are still missing after the boat carrying 25 people, including 13 crew members, sank as it travelled between Lombok and Komodo just off the east coast of Indonesia. An initial group of 10 people, including the two British tourists, were rescued after swimming three miles to a nearby island, only to find it contained an active volcano. French survivor Bertrand Homassel said the group, believed to have also consisted of tourists from New Zealand, Spain, France, Germany and the Netherlands, swam for six hours to get to the island.
