Back in 1971, this teen fell 10,000 feet when her airplane broke up, and she survived. Crazy story!

I've read about her, but only got snippets of her story. From what I understand she was the only survivor because the others sat and waited for rescue!

OK, this is a different girl. The girl I read about was in a crash that fell onto a mountain side. This girl was in the jungle alone! Wow. I'm always fascinated by the human ability to survive against such odds.

There is a movie in Spanish about her survival ordeal.
