Local Man 'Trapped' In Gold Mine For 2 Weeks, Tweets About It, Somehow Stays 'Humble' and 'Grateful' for the Free Room and Board

AITA for thinking this is the most overrated survival story since that guy who got lost at a Dave & Buster's? Apparently, a dude from Colorado spent 14 days in an abandoned gold mine, surviving on rainwater and trail mix, and now he's doing the press circuit like he's the second coming of Bear Grylls. TL;DR: Man gets lost, eats granola, waits for rescue, and now he's a 'hero'. I'm sure the gold was the real treasure all along—the friends he made (none, he was alone) and the 'incredible journey' (mostly sitting in the dark). This is peak 2025 content.
