A Tourist Is Trudging Through Australia's Desert

He's completely lost, and he's quickly running out of water. His vision is rather impaired, and he can tell that he's only got a few more hours before he'll pass out.

Suddenly, he accidentally steps on a rattlesnake! Before he can jump away, it hisses, bites him directly in the leg, and slithers off. The man panics. He had read about venomous snakebites in a book, and this one was usually fatal. His vision starts to blur. He swallows dryly, and accepts his fate. Finally, he loses his balance, and passes out in the sand.

Miraculously, a local hiker finds him. He carries him back to his lodge, and tends to his wounds. When the man awakes, he solemnly asks, "Was I brought here to die?"

"Nah mate," replies the Aussie. "Ye were brought here yester-die."
