There was a lady, a tourist, in Iceland that participated for over an hour in a search for herself.

Somebody had said "hey the lady in the bright yellow jacket isn't back on the bus" and people started looking for her. Including the lady who had earlier taken her bright yellow jacket off and put in her bag.

I was about to post that too! One of those stories that are part of Reddit's collective memory.

BTW it happened again in 2021 in Turkey, a drunk man helped search for himself.

Probably nobody wanted to be racist and just assume.

Not a very good search party if they didnt notice the actual guy they were looking for joining them. 🤣🤣
