Four stowaways travel 3,500 miles in tiny space on cargo ship - but not to their intended destination

Four Nigerian stowaways survived two weeks in the tiny space above the rudder of a cargo ship as it travelled 3,500 miles of ocean from their home country to Brazil.

The men had run out of food and drink on their 10th day but survived by drinking sea water that was crashing just metres below them. The 35-year-old, from Bayelsa state in Nigeria, added that the cramped conditions and the noise of the engine meant sleep was rare as well as risky during the journey.
