The most amazing survival experiences in history.
Once you know some of the most extreme cases of survival of history, so think twice before complaining because your drink ran out of gas, or dinner was cold.
Eating: dead rats and raisins
The Uruguayan Fernando Gomez Circunegu Raul, 58, was lost during a storm, when his motorcycle was damaged in the Cordillera de los Andes. He spent four lost months, feeding on dead rats and raisins to survive the famine. It was found on September 9, 2013, at an altitude of 2800 meters, in a mountain hut in the province of San Juan in Argentina.
Dense vegetation and a brutal cold
The December 13, 1920, the Kloor, Hinton and Farrell, of the US Navy lieutenants fell from a hydrogen balloon to the depths of a Canadian forest. The nearest town, Moose Factory, Ontario, was 32 kilometers. They must walk a week through dense vegetation and enduring extreme cold, with little equipment and food. Finally, they arrived at the station on Hudson Bay, where they were rescued.
Surviving a tribe of cannibals
The May 1, 1945, the "Special Gremlin" plane, Air Force US Army, crashed into a mountain in the then Dutch New Guinea. Of the 24 crew members, including women and several soldiers, only three survived: Margaret Hastings and Kenneth Decker, seriously injured, and John McCollom relatively healthy. It was not long until they knew they were in the territory of an isolated tribe of the modern world, especially known for its cannibalistic habits. Fortunately for the injured, the natives had a predilection for the meat of the members of an enemy tribe, whereas they were quite friendly. After 42 days, they were rescued.
On foot, crossing 6000 kilometers of Himalayas
Slavomir Rawicz was a cavalry officer in the Polish army, when he was captured by the Red Army during the German-Soviet partition of Poland in 1939. After being tortured and put on trial in Moscow, was sentenced to 25 years hard forced labor in Siberia. After a year in unbearably inhumane conditions, Rawicz and six other inmates escaped from the camp in Yakutsk. The fugitives were moved 6,437 kilometers on foot, crossing the frozen Siberian tundra, the Gobi Desert, Tibet and the Himalayan Mountains, to British India. The book The Long Walk is based on this story.
