Jose Velasquez, 32, went missing in Houston, Texas on June 26, and was found 5 days later, lying next to his flipped and damaged car, “almost lifeless.”

A man surpassed all odds and managed to survive alone, without food or water, in the woods for days after he was in a car crash, which left him with serious injuries.

"I honestly think that when you're put in a situation where your life is in jeopardy, your survival instincts kick in, because I'm not an outdoors person at all,” he told the Houston news channel. He added"I remember just leaning back and looking up at the sky and saying, 'If you're going to take me, take me now. I don't want to be here anymore.’”

The group wrote in its original post on its website that Velasquez was wearing a “long sleeved, vertically [striped] navy blue & cream-colored shirt, blue jeans and black Nike baseball shoes,” and was in a “white, 2007 4-door, Honda Accord with Texas license plates.”According to a GoFundMe fundraiser organized to support payment of medical bills, Velasquez was admitted to Memorial Herman Hospital, where he spent 18 days, for multiple injuries.

It is unclear what caused the car crash. Despite his injuries, Velasquez still “miraculously” managed to survive. According to the GoFundMe, doctors believe he will be “back to normal” in less than a year, but will require many follow-up appointments, as well as physical therapy sessions to “regain his ability to walk.”
