Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 crashed into the Andes Mountains on October 13, 1972 at approximately 3:30 PM. The plane was carrying a Uruguayan rugby team, friends, and family from Montevideo, Uruguay to Santiago, Chile when the pilot became disoriented and the plane struck a mountain. The crash killed 29 of the 45 passengers and crew on board, and left the remaining 33 injured. Nobody saw any of them again – for seventy two days. Today’s podcast guest literally wrote the book on how they survived.
