Viven: El Accidente de Los Andes 1972 ... 1/11

It is one of the most astonishing and inspiring survival tales of all time. On October 13, 1972, a young rugby team from Montevideo, Uruguay, boarded a plane for a match in Chile—and then vanished into thin air. Two days before Christmas, 16 of the 45 passengers miraculously resurfaced. They had managed to survive for 72 days after their plane crashed on a remote Andean glacier. Thirty-five years later, the survivors return to the crash site—known as the Valley of Tears—to recount their harrowing story of defiant endurance and indestructible friendship. Previously documented in the 1973 worldwide bestseller Alive (and the 1993 Ethan Hawke movie of the same name), this shocking true story finally gets the cinematic treatment it deserves. Visually breathtaking and crafted with riveting detail by documentary filmmaker (and childhood friend of the survivors) Gonzalo Arijón with a masterful combination of on-location interviews, archival footage and reenactments, Stranded is by turns hauntingly powerful and spiritually moving.

@michaelhutchence00 to each his own. god would want us to survive, forces of nature would want us to survive. we'd be doing a disservice to our life if we chose to not live because we wont each human flesh for the 70 days that we have to get out of a mountain. -.- you don't know unless you were there..so; what is deserving of hell?

Han sido siempre tan inspiradores para mi!! Siempre me acompaña el libro, desde chico, con esa experiencia tan dolorosa, como profundamente espiritual. Sueño con saber de ellos, con darles la mano, un abrazo, alguna vez. Siento una enorme gratitud por haber bajado de esas montañas, vivos, para contarnos el milagro que han vivido. Los saludo desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The most incompetent pilots ever, the made the turn to soon and ended up in the Andes. Basic navigation and common sense could have saved the them and the passengers.
