[00:14.62]Nearly a week passed before [00:16.96]the girl was able to explain [00:19.54]what had happened to her. [00:23.15]One afternoon she set out [00:25.70]from the coast in a small boat [00:28.22]and was caught in a storm. [00:31.49]Towards evening, [00:33.09]the boat struck a rock and [00:35.13]the girl jumped into the sea. [00:38.30]Then she swam to the shore [00:40.63]after spending the whole night in the water. [00:44.71]During that time she covered [00:47.50]a distance of eight miles. [00:50.81]Early next morning, [00:52.90]she saw a light ahead. [00:55.80]She knew she was near the shore [00:58.90]because the light was high up on the cliffs. [01:03.51]On arriving at the shore, [01:06.16]the girl struggled up the cliff towards [01:09.56]the light she had seen. [01:12.09]That was all she remembered. [01:15.17]When she woke up a day later, [01:17.97]she found herself in hospital.
