Replying to I am Alive: Surviving the The Andes Plane Crash

I just finished watching the entire story on history channel and as someone who watched survival stories often, I can say this is the most incredible story I have ever heard.

So in 1972, a plane went down in the Andes mountains carrying 45 people. 27 survived the crash and 16 survived the 72 day ordeal. Stranded in the middle of the Andes for 72 days with minimal food, water, and shelter, they were able to survive. Their story and what they had to go through to survive is unreal.




I know, it's an hour and a half long, but it is worth the watch if you are into survival stories.
