‘It was a good birthday now’: Man’s 70th celebration turns into 20-hour fight for survival, and he wasn’t alone out there

Four family members were rescued by the US Coast Guard after their birthday fishing trip turned into a 20-hour survival ordeal. They were found 26 miles off the coast of Clearwater, Florida, clinging to their capsized boat.

According to New York Post, the trip was meant to celebrate Dennis Woods‘ 70th birthday. He brought along three relatives: 90-year-old Clarence Woods, 42-year-old Cris Harding Sr., and 18-year-old Chris Harding Jr. The group ranged from a teenager to a 90-year-old, making the situation even more dangerous.
