More than 400 people out ice-fishing had to be rescued off Russia's Sakhalin Island when sheets of ice broke loose and started drifting out to sea, reports the BBC. Check this out:

Operations mounted by the Emergencies Ministry rescued all 442 people who were adrift, although about 70 had initially refused to leave without their gear.

One ministry official was quoted by Interfax news agency as saying many of those rescued were in a state of "heavy alcoholic intoxication".
