Larry Hendrickson was found conscious and breathing after a night in life-threatening cold, now recovering from hypothermia.

92-year-old Larry Hendrickson survived a night in freezing temperatures after falling down an embankment in Oregon.
Hendrickson was traveling from Yuma, Arizona, to Newport, Washington with his wife, Shirley, when they encountered a problem with their U-Haul truck's tire.
Shirley had both cell phones, leaving Larry without a way to communicate when he drove off to look for a tire truck.
Authorities located Larry the next morning, conscious and breathing, a short distance away from his abandoned car.
Larry was released from the hospital two days later, recovering from the effects of hypothermia.
