A Drunk Man Reported Missing In Turkey Joined His Own Search Party For Hours
DPT Podcast/TwitterBeyhan Mutlu drunkenly wandered off into a Turkish forest and fell asleep. When he awoke, he stumbled into his own search party.
When Beyhan Mutlu disappeared, his wife was rightfully distraught. The 50-year-old Turkish man had last been seen by his friends on Sept. 28, 2021. They had all gone out together and spent the night drinking in the province of Bursa in northwest Turkey before Mutlu vanished into thin air — only to reemerge helping out in his own search party.
In a real-life scenario worthy of Charlie Chaplin’s finest films, Mutlu had wandered off alone after his night out and slept in a cabin in the woods. And when his wife and friends couldn’t reach him for hours, they called the police and formed a search party.
It was only after Mutlu woke up and began to find his way home that he stumbled upon a group of civilians in the woods who had volunteered to help police look for him. Unaware of their endeavor, he began quietly following the herd and keeping pace — becoming utterly confused when they began shouting his name.
“I told them I was Beyhan Mutlu, but they continued to search,” he said.
Only after his drinking buddies arrived and confirmed that Mutlu was who they were looking for that police and volunteers realized what had happened. Fortunately, rescue officials found the incident more humorous than aggravating — and gave Mutlu a ride home.
