72 Days Of Survival: The Andes Plane Crash

Описание: 72 days. 16 survivors. One of the most harrowing true survival stories in modern history.
In 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 crashed in the remote, snow-covered Andes Mountains. What followed was an extraordinary test of human endurance, sacrifice, and resilience. Trapped in sub-zero temperatures, with no food, no communication, and no way out, a group of young rugby players and their companions fought to stay alive against impossible odds.

This week on I Could Murder a Podcast, Tom, Ben abd Dab explore the incredible true story behind the so-called Miracle in the Andes. From the fatal navigation error, to the traumatic crash, the ethical debate around survival cannibalism, and the heroic 10-day trek for rescue. We also examine how the story has been told across books, documentaries, and films, including Alive and Society of the Snow.

This is the lasting legacy of Flight 571.
