An amazing first hand account into bravery
I have become a little obsessed with this story and this book has highlighted to me those men saved themselves. An amazing story is survival. 10/10 read!

One man’s viewpoint
It’s brilliant to get to experience the actual thoughts of someone who was on the plane, but this was very skewed to having him be the most important person who made survival for all the others possible.
Was a very nice touch to hear some of the audio in the actual voice of the survivor but I feel that the interview section was pointless as all the questions had already been addressed in the book.

Best book I have read from audible.
A personal account of how a young man escaped from almost certain death, after a plane crash in the Andes and what he gained from the ordeal. Beatifully written and inspiring.

Just an amazing story. Gives you a different outlook on life.
I had been interested in the crash on the Andes for quite some time but reading this book has given me a deeper understanding of the events. Absolutely amazing story.

It's all about love, how amazing!
So wonderful to hear what happened to everyone. Lots of children born & happy lives continued. Such a relief after the suffering on the mountain. Loved hearing Nando speak.

Truly a surreal tale of survival and the will to survive
Truly a harrowing disturbing tale of survival and the will to continue.
Unless you were faced with a similar situation you cannot even begin to understand the mental will power to resort to the most primal of human instincts to survive to carry on when most would have given up early on. The sure will of these people is absolutely unbelievable but shows when faced with the poorest odds people can overcome anything if their determination is strong enough

One of the most uplifting stories I've ever heard
I had already read the physical copy a few years ago, and after watching the amazing "Society of the Snow," I wanted to revisit Nando Parrado's account of the months spent on the Andes after the tragic crash. Beautifully told, tense and full of genuine emotion, while harrowing and difficult to even imagine, the story of the survivors of the 1972 Fairchild crash is one of pure love and devotion. Nando says in the epilogue how everyone has their own personal Andes: mine is OCD. I'm currently in early days of treatment after 20 years of suffering. It's relationship based, and now I look forward to marrying my partner without my brain dictating the rules. Like Nando, I choose to struggle a little longer so I can love even harder. Thank you, Nando, for choosing to retell your story. You and your friends are an inspiration to us all.
For all those still buried in the mountain.
(One star taken off of performance because I was a bit sad Nando didn't narrate the whole thing, but the narration was still good).
