Cut off by floodwaters in a remote corner of Australia’s notoriously dangerous Outback, a group of five survived thanks to their bush skills.

The group, which included an 8-year-old child, had to abandon their vehicle, eating witchetty grubs and drinking from rock pools to stay alive, according to local media reports.
