good tuesday morning. we begin with new details from that amazing stowaway survival story. experts think the teenager may have gone in to a kind of hibernation once the plane took off. >> and plans are made for the boy to be reunited with his family in california. with more on this, here's abc's david kerley. >> this teenage boy, according to the fbi, stowed away in a wide-bodied jet, unpressurized wheel well, flying half way across the pacific, 5 and a half hours from san jose, california to hawaii and surviving. an hour after landing, he emerged from the jet, dazed, caught on videotape and shocking ground crews. >> he was weak. he hung from the wheel well and fell to the ground and regained some strength and stood up and walked to the front of the aircraft. >> reporter: the boy had a fight with his parents says the fbi. he ran away to the san jose airport where he was able to scale a fence, beating the security system and raising concerns about all airports. >> under cover of darkness and
3:32 am
remained undetected as he then proceeded to the aircraft ramp and proceeded in to the wheel well of the aircraft. >> reporter: in a plane as large as the 767 there's some room in the wheel well so someone can climb up the tire in to that space. three out of four people who try this die. they are crushed, fall out or die from the elements. among the 105 who did try there are 25 survivors. possibly 26. why is this so hard to believe? because as a plane gains altitude the air gets thin and temperatures start dropping dramatically. so at 38,000 feet, it's at least 50 degrees below zero and hardly any oxygen. how was he able to do it? as the jet climbs, the person gradually loses consciousness and his temperatures slowly drop the nervous system is preserved. in a sense a hibernation. >> i'm boggled at the fact that somebody could hibernate like that. >> reporter: an fbi agent said the teenager doesn't even remember the flight. hawaiian airlines said the boy

he's one lucky boy. >> sure is. our coverage of the hawaiian airlines stowaway doesn't end here. we get an inside look at the jet's underbelly to see what it takes to ride in the wheel well. ryan owens brings that part of the story later in this half hour. 46 days in to the search for missing flight 370. the painstaking efforts have so far failed to yield a single piece of wreckage. two dozen planes and ships are searching 19,000 square miles of surface of the indian ocean. that's almost the size of west virginia. the u.s. navy's bluefin-21 robotic submarine has covered two thirds of the search zone. so far no trace of the missing jumbo jet. the death toll has climbed above 100 in the south korean ferry disaster. they battled poor weather conditions to continue their search effort. passengers and parents of passengers on board the ship issued a letter of appeal to the government urging the operation be carried out more quickly. this morning, south korean
