Hi. My name is Travis. And I was on my way home from Hawaii on vacation. Yea well guess what. This turned out to be alot longer vacation that I planned. We had engine trouble and the plane went down and somehow as far as I know I am the only survivor. I have been stranded on this damn island for 2 years/45 days. Durring that whole time I have not seen one boat go by here. The only thing I have ate only coconuts and leaves and some bugs. I hate being here and I blame my idiot piolt. He knew the weather was bad but we left any way. We ended up lost in the middle of the ocean. As we ran out of fuel we searched for an island. We finaly saw one that was covered with trees and the plane is now completely torn to shreds. I have used parts of it as shelter and protection. I used the very last of the fuel to start a fire and luckily it hasn't went out. Just last week I killed a pollar bear on the far side of the island that is really cold, which is weird cuz the side i am on has a volcano and is really hot. I had to drag that dang bear like 4 miles over glaciers and really hot climate. Once I finaly got the bear gutted and the meat all cut i took it back over to the cold side and used it as a natural freezer. That meat lasted me 4 1/2 months. I ended up finding a cave 2 weeks ago so I lit a torch and started exploring it. Turns out there is and under ground cavern in this cave with a very large underground lake. Which was a life saver because it was fresh water. I was in desperate need of water and I started sleeping down there because it was in the 60's all the time. On day 983 I awoke to a strange noise. I went out cave and saw a boat by the shore and a guy looking through all my stuff and I yelled at him and he jumped. Turned out his name was Jon Hagg. He took me back to the states and thats where I found out that the island I was on was a strange island in the Bermuda Triangle that all the locals were afraid of. But everything turned out for the best. I got a job as a fishing guide and took tourists to my cave and it became a very popular tourist atraction. I lived to be 97 years old and never once forgetting my island adventure.
