Multiple teams conducted search and rescue operations on Tuesday after a man was reported to be missing in a forest in Turkey.
Beyhan Mutlu, a 50-year-old from Inegol in the north-western province of Bursa, Turkey had been drinking with friends in the forest, according to the Daily Mail.
At some point, the drunk man wandered out in the forest and disappeared, according to reports.
His friends couldn't find him and called the police.
Beyhan Mutlu’s disappearance quickly spread throughout the area, and volunteers and local residents joined the search squad. People combed the forest and periodically shouted out the name of the missing man.
At some point, another man joined the group, and when the team called Mutlu's name again, the man became confused and asked "Who are we looking for? I am here."
