Cyclist falls down 130-foot ravine in France, survives 3 days by drinking wine he had in shopping bag

When you think about it, the "in France" part was unnecessary.

I need to know what wine he drank, those bottles must be tough as shit.

  A corked bottle of wine is quite resistant to breaking. The cork keeps the air in so it has nowhere to go when the bottle is struck and pushes back against the external forces.
  It's not uncommon for somebody to have difficulty breaking a Champaign bottle while christening a ship.

  Yeah it usually takes a couple of hits to break the bottle against the ship, how many times do you think those bottles smashed against the ground as he fell 130 ft.
