Happened to me in much same way in Malaysia, when I went there on a holiday from Singapore using a bike of my coworker.
It was a surprise to get into such thick jungle so close to civilisation.
Though, I myself though I will never get into such a stupid situation, and probably those two thought of the same.
As somebody who spent childhood in Russian far east, I think wasn't even told not to fare into forests for it being so obviously dangerous as shown by lengthy necrologues in style "Ivan Ivanov 1980.1.1 went to forest on 2000.2.2, never returned, presumed dead"
