"I ate my friends to survive" Andes plane crash survivor
Quote:
In 1972, Roberto Canessa was one of 45 people aboard a plane that crashed high in the Andes mountains.
Twelve were killed in the crash, six died in the next few days, and 11 more perished due to the lack of food and harsh conditions they faced.
Those who were left ate the bodies of the dead in order to have any chance of living long enough to be rescued.

Would you guys eat flesh from a dead body to survive?

I don't think I'd be able to do it. I'd literally rather die.

You never know what will your survival instinct tell you to do at such situations.

Does it take long to die from starvation?

I wouldn't enjoy it but I think when it happens, I'd probably have to. Unless I would have to eat ugly people in which case I'd rather starve

Didn't they make a movie about this?
And, yes, I would eat flesh from a dead body. Any of us would do what is needed to survive in extreme conditions.

I would imagine that vegetation is very limited in the Andes though?
