There is a saying "Jako Rakhe Saiyan Maar Sake Na Koi", that is, "No One Can Harm The One Protected By The God". This proverb applied to a Swedish man who came out alive even after being trapped under snow for two months. This man's car got badly caught in the snowstorm and turned into a big stone covered with snow. During this period, he had nothing to eat, but still, somehow he managed to survive himself by eating snow only.
In December 2011, Peter Skyllberg (age 44), a man from Sweden was drifting in the mountainous areas near the town of Umea in northern Sweden, when a sudden snowstorm struck, and his car got completely covered with snow. His car got stuck in the snow in such a way that it was impossible for him to come out, at first he tried hard to get himself out of the car, but later he felt that nothing can happen now. After giving up, he stayed in his frozen car and started eating snow only, as he had nothing else to eat. The temperature there was up to -30 degrees celsius, but due to the car being covered with snow, the 'Igloo effect' was created inside the car, due to which he was able to stay inside it comfortably.

In the same condition, he spent two months in his car. Then one day a man passing by that road caught sight of his car and saw that there was some movement inside the car. After that, the man thought of saving Peter's life and when Peter was taken to the hospital for treatment, the doctors were surprised to see that how can a person survive by eating only snow and that too for two months. So later when this whole matter was thoroughly studied, doctors and scientists concluded that Peter Skyllberg's body had gone into a hibernation state, causing his body to need less energy. As a result, he could able to survive even in such deadly conditions, but still, this case of Peter Skyllberg blows the senses of medical experts.
