saying Nando is amazing just doesn't cut it, anyone who has been or is currently lucky enough to be his friend or family member would quickly agree with me, I know it, you guys know it. His will to survive and dedication to his friends/family is indescribable. Anybody would be more than lucky to have a friend with half the qualities Nando seems to have.

I can't get enough of this story, I've read the books many times. Nando is my hero too I think of him and all these brave men when I go through rough times. They are truly inspirational.

This interviewer is USELESS.... he's asking questions as though he's barely even read the story before. 27 minus 8 is 19 dumbass.

I could of done a better job than him..... I wish he'd ask more interesting and more intrusive questions.

Pero tengo mucho respecto para Nando y Roberto Canessa... Son hombres fuerte y valiente

I cannot put into words how amazing this man is, how amazing what he did. It really puts into perspective that most of our petty struggles are nothing compared to what he went through. But yet, he shows compassion in that he understands that "we all have our "Andes", our own struggles in life" and he wants us to know that what he showed, can help us understand and come to grips with our problems. My hero without a doubt
