I have always loved the story of Marcos Rodríguez Pantoja....he had one advantage over BL though, the FBI and the Florida State Police and the NPPD were not hot to nab Marcos..Humans have lived off the land forever. Without running water. Without "showers" or clean clothes. I have to wonder why it's questionable to people here that someone could do it especially if your life was on the line. If this man did it from the ages of 7-19 years old I think BL could manage (How to be human: the man who was raised by wolves)
No one knew Marcos was out there. .. and way before electronic surveillance, and drones, etc..
And.. Marcos was no thief and murderer... just a lost boy.
