A missing woman on vacation in Iceland managed to unwittingly join a search party looking for herself.

Toronto Sun reports that a tourist group traveling by bus to the volcanic Eldgja canyon made a pit stop near the canyon park. The woman in question went inside to freshen up and change her clothes at the rest stop, and when she came back “her busmates didn’t recognize her.”

Word spread among the group of a missing passenger, and the woman didn’t recognize the description of herself. Next thing you know, a 50-person search party was canvassing the area, and the coast guard was mobilizing to deploy a search party of its own.

About 3am, some genius in the group finally figured out that the missing woman was actually in the search party, albeit in different clothes, and the search was called off.

No word on what kind of wardrobe was involved in this woman’s “freshening up.” But her sense of self-image must be way out of whack to join a search party until 3am without even suspecting for a minute that the woman in the description bore some resemblance to herself.

Is Jamie not regarded as king of the quick giff etc? His vid won't play? Perhaps it's my gammy old Ip4?

Or your security settings won't allow insufferable music...

Truly is a genius story though in the OP 😀

No wonder they didn't recognise her with that wig and false moustache 🙄

Jamie, might have to print that and put it up on the notice board at Uni. People are always putting those things up for medical study volunteers. 😆
