In 1986, Christopher Thomas Knight, 20, parked his car and walked away into a forest in rural Maine in US. He had no plans. He took some very basic camping supplies, simply walked into the woods. He didn't come out again for 27 years. His only motivation was to avoid contact with people.
And for the next 27 years, Knight lived alone in a hidden camp near North Pond and survived the brutal winter while avoiding all human contact. His mysterious disappearance later turned into one of America’s most intriguing modern-day mysteries, earning him the nickname “The Ghost of the Woods".
