One man survived 18 hours lost at sea after finding a toy ball in the waves that helped him stay afloat.Ivan is a 30-year-old from North Macedonia. He was visiting My Beach in Kassandra, Greece when he got caught up in some strong ocean currents. His friends alerted Greek coastguards when they realized Ivan was missing.

Fortunately, Ivan was discovered by a coastguard aircraft. And he talked about how a toy ball saved him during his 18-hour sea voyage. He saw it coming toward him in the water and grabbed onto it to keep himself afloat. That small ball belonged to two boys, and their mother identified it. The kids had lost it 10 days before on a beach more than 80 miles away from where Ivan had discovered it!

“I had constant information on the course of the rescue and am very happy about the smooth ending of the young man’s adventure,” according to a Facebook post describing Ivan’s rescue. “Thanks to the port, the EKAB and the Kassandra Health Center, the air force, the Greek police, the fishermen’s boats of Nea Skioni, the two boats sailing in the area, all the rescue teams and volunteers, the young man found a ball that saved his life and helped him when he got tired.

“Unfortunately, Martin Jovanovski, one of Ivan’s friends, also went missing at sea and is still missing. We hope that now that Ivan has returned safely and has been released from a local hospital after being treated, his friend will be found soon.
