In October 1972, Nando Parrado and his rugby club teammates were on
a flight from Uruguay to Chile when their plane crashed into a
mountain. Miraculously, many of the passengers survived but Nando's
mother and sister died and he was unconscious for three days.
Stranded more than 11,000 feet up in the wilderness of the Andes,
the survivors soon heard that the search for them had been called
off - and realise the only food for miles around was the bodies of
their dead friends ... In a last desperate bid for safety, Nando
and a teammate set off in search of help. They climbed
17,000-foot-high mountains, facing death at every step, but
inspired by his love for his family Nando drove them on until,
finally, 72 days after the crash, they found rescue.
