Audrey Schoeman survived remarkably long cardiac arrest thanks to cold weather
A British woman whose heart stopped beating for six hours has been brought back to life in what doctors have described as an "exceptional case".
Audrey Schoeman developed severe hypothermia when she was caught in a snowstorm while hiking in the Spanish Pyrenees with her husband in November.
Doctors say it is the longest cardiac arrest ever recorded in Spain.
Mrs Schoeman, who has made a near-full recovery after the ordeal, says she hopes to be hiking again by spring.
