MP3 player guides rescuers to lost tourists

ZURICH (Reuters) - The light from an MP3 player saved two lost tourists
from a chilly night stuck out in the snowy Swiss mountains, rescue
authorities said Saturday.

[...]

They were able to alert authorities using a mobile phone, but it then ran
out of battery power, Baumann said.

"The two winter sports enthusiasts were found by the crew of the Rega
helicopter shortly after midnight -- thanks to the faint light of their
MP3 player," he said.

The two men had only mild hypothermia.
