Sotobanari island is a beautiful little island and looks like a nice place to visit but as small as it is I would not want to stay there too long.

The 'naked hermit' shunned mainstream society and set up base on Sotobanari island in 1989

More pictures and a video at link.

Remember Dick Proenneke, the Alaska guy that lived alone about 30 years in the wilderness in a cabin that he built.

I also remember the stories in the 1970s of Japanese soldiers cut off on remote Pacific islands who still believed that the war was going on.

Another example of government getting into people’s sh*t...just because it says so.

Why the Fucik does he need a GoPro camera?

Does he upload the videos to the web?

Does he watch them on the HD TV?

Cerezo added his health is okay and he 'probably only had the flu' when he was found,

If he was by himself then how did he catch the flu?

Normally you can only get the flu from other humans or certain animals.
