Incredible Victoria Police Air Wing footage has captured the exact moment 17-year-old Will was found alive and smiling on rocks beside a creek after vanishing for six days in rugged Victorian bushland near Walhalla East. Wearing only shorts and work boots, the teenager became disoriented after missing a turn-off track near his campsite, curling up under bushes to sleep—and sleeping straight through rescue sirens and shouting—before rescuers finally spotted a tacklebox near his position from the air. Following a dramatic helicopter winch rescue, Will’s emotional mother, Elizabeth Barkley, shared her immense relief at the “miracle” reunion, revealing her son is in good spirits, immediately asked for McDonald’s, and is officially “grounded for life.”
