“It’s a miracle that I survived,” the 54-year-old said as aid workers carried him off on a stretcher with a broken leg to be airlifted to hospital.
The typhoon triggered flash floods, which carried away Agang’s home outside New Bataan along with him, his wife and four children.
The floodwaters deposited him downstream in a boulder-strewn field, where he lay pinned down for two days by rocks and debris.
