    Excerpt
    A New Zealand fisherman has been rescued in what police described Thursday as “an absolute miracle” after spending nearly 24 hours in the ocean before using the sun’s reflection off his watch to attract attention. At one stage during his ordeal a shark swam close to the fisherman to “have a sniff”, police sergeant Will Hamilton said. The man was on a solo fishing trip when he fell overboard after hooking a marlin off the Coromandel Peninsula on the east coast of New Zealand’s North Island on Tuesday.
