Thank you so much. Please share. Thank you.

I could not agree more! The "CGI" used was not over the top like in today's films, it was obvious they used more props and people, but you know what using real props made it feel all the more REAL and intimate. I cringed when the guy hit is head and the seats were ripping off.. very well done!

Julio Mateo I can't imagine what an awful death getting sucked out of the plane must be, regardless of at what altitude. Always wonder what happens when they're out...instant death? Slow suffocation for oxygen lack? Slow freezing or shock-freezing? Or a painful demise upon impact...*shudder*

Yeah they are killer, all practical except for what may be an optical effect when you see them sucked out. For me the effectiveness is in the editing, it's paced so well. You could follow the action (not super fast cutting like today) with what exactly is happening to the plane and in little moments they give to the characters. So visceral and scary. The sound design too, that engine...

They were laughing and smiling

​@daviddavis3389 My mom told me about this. The deeply religious players went to the Vatican to ask the Pope to forgive them for having eaten the dead.

They also did a wrong turn at some point, so even if the still miscalculated everything else, if they didin't make that turn wrong they would've landed much closer to Chile and they would've also be located much faster since it would've crashed closer to the planned route.

Yeah like with that guy that said “Are we supposed to fly that close to the mountains?” And the other man praying was actually true based on interviews

The survivors have always said, in the interviews they've given over the last 30 years for the Spanish speaking media, that they dislike 'Alive' because it's a very distorted version of the real facts. They find it superficial and disrespectful.

@@Adifgreat Really? Oh wow, I have never heard that. I remember watching an interview with the real Nando Parrado, for an English speaking behind the scenes documentary, and he had said the airplane crash scene was identical to the way it happened from what he remembered. I don't recall him saying anything negative about the film. I've no doubt they embellished many other parts of the movie for drama and some action. That's interesting. I'll have to look into it more.

@@monkeymonkey8526 In fact, the only thing they like about 'Alive' is the special/visual effects. The new film 'Society of the Snow' is, in the words of the survivors and the victims' families, the real story and a tribute to all the heroes of the ordeal, especially those who didn't survive.

That must've been cool watching that in 1993, good ol times❤

@@Adifgreat Very odd since Nando and a few other survivors were actually there during filming as consultants to keep it true to their story as much as possible. How very strange they would say something after that is the total opposite. Maybe the editors made cuts and changes that left them unhappy? Interesting.

Lucky to be Alive.

Love this comment thank you.

You can have that any time. Start writing letters again, sending postcards for birthdays instead of texting a message. Find hobbys like playing Rugby to pass time outside social media. Maybe some people will join in😄.

If you haven't read Nando's book "Miracle in the Andes", I highly recommend it. I read Alive when it first came out and numerous times since but Nando's book is simply fantastic. Especially the epilogue.

mako88sb Thank you for the tip but yes I have read that too. The book had so much more information than the movie. It’s a must read for those intrigued by this amazing survival story.😊

@@michelleann414 Glad to hear you read it. One thing that really struck me was in the epilogue, he mentioned that specialists were saying these guys would need professional help for most of their lives but aside from the one fella ending up with a drug dependency, they all led pretty successful lives and learned how to move on from that tragedy with minimal professional help. It was great to find out how Nando and Jackie Stewart became friends and of course how he met his wife. I think it should be mandatory reading for schools in the grade 10-12 level just to help teenagers get through those difficult years. That one passage in the book when he was consoling that poor woman who had the unfortunate accident with her daughter and he said to her that "we all have our own personal Andes" has stuck with me throughout the years.

@@Musicvidsetc Smart

Actually statistically the seats from the middle towards the tail of the plane are safer to be in. In this case it was quite a matter of luck that the front part of the plane wasn't as damaged as the back.

In a crash like this, those sitting in front got crushed by the people and seats behind them

Just behind the wing is statistically the best place to sit to survive. Pilots usually die and they are at the very front.

Movie name

IKR. They remembered "Chile" but not "Uruguay"

To be fair, when the Pilot said "stay above the weather" they were flying above the mountains so it was imperative for them to keep the plane as safe as possible (due to the limitations and engine underpowering of the aircraft). However when they start the decent the entire path ahead should be clear of mountains so at that point they could endure the cross winds without much problems. Of course, they never knew that they did a wrong turn 20 minutes ago and instead of landing into the Santiago City outskirts they where flying into the middle of the Andes.

@@PointReflex True, it was a navigational error that screwed them.

Pilot was drunk. That’s why he was eaten first

Can you explain?

Ironic you say that. My family is from Argentina and we appreciated they made mention of mate and showed the pilot's drinking it.

@@VerisimilitudeFilms1 I’m from Argentina and I think, since it’s based on a true story from Uruguay, a cultural reference is a must. In this case they used the mate, which I think is good, the thing is they didn’t care much about learning how people used it

Have you heard of our Goddess Yari?

I watched this as a kid and must have blocked that out 😭😭. That poor Yerba (which I’m sure wasn’t in the gourd LOL)

I chose to do a comparative review of the Hollywood movie, a survivor account, and the PPR book, for high school English class in like 1997, and I'd never been so not bored before in school, if that makes sense - there's just so much, so much material, so much humanity, so many different aspects to consider. I actually loved every minute of doing that project. Watching this scene brings back chills of course but also fond memories.

I wouldn't call it inspiring. They ate each other and waited 2 months before actually leaving the sight to search for help. And the only reason they went out to search was because they were running out of friends bodies to eat. And one attempt of search, they found a village pretty fast that saved them. If you ever get into a crash, never do what these cannibals did. Immediately look for help, or animals to hunt. (There are animals in that mountain).

@@thecensoredmuscle563 Perhaps you should actually read the book before making judgement. You clearly do not know the circumstances.

@@missmelyss3626 I do know the circumstances, I've studied this story. They should not be anyone's influence on how to survive.

@@thecensoredmuscle563 Cearly you didn´t studied well. it almos seems you never read anything about it from the real people involed in. The reason for them to go out on expeditions was knowing by radio that the search for them was over. You couldn´t even get that important detail lol, they had many bodies available at the moment. So it´s obvious that you don´t know the full story. "And one attempt of search, they found a village pretty fast" OMG It wasnt the first and they didn´t even found a village, they found a man in a river after 10 days of walking in 38km of freezing mountains.

@@Adifgreat I will look into that. Thank you for the knowledge!

​@@Adifgreatwhy is that

@@Lovememore231 Basically, because it fails to convey the feelings and values they experienced in the mountains, their friendship and how they all saved each other's lives. They disagreed with the script they were sent for review (as established in the contract), so the 16 survivors gathered at Gustavo Zerbino's house for several days to make all the modifications they considered necessary, but when the revised script was sent back to the studios, it was disrespectfully dismissed, so the disappointing result was a fictionalised softened version with the stereotypical Hollywood characters, in which they've never seen themselves reflected, some ridiculed such as Carlos Roque, the mechanic, whose son grew up wondering why his father had been portrayed that way.

There’s a KZfaq video about the making of this movie. It was filmed on a Canadian glacier only accessible by helicopters. Nando was involved as a consultant and made the trip many times. Filming in such a location is very difficult as you can imagine.

@@mako88sb wowzers! 😲 Amazingly made still.

It was Carlos Valeta, one of the youngest guys on the plane, a doctor's son. He was disoriented and tripping down the hill, actually wandering off in the wrong direction, and they were yelling for him to come their way. He fell into a crevasse in the glacier and they found his body two months later, when they were looking for more bodies so they wouldn't have to start eating people's relatives. Valeta's father was one of the most vocal defenders of the survivors using the bodies for food, including his son's.

Independent Contractor I watched another movie about this crash. People, professionals, meant that the pilots did wrong. They were not going to fly over the Andes in the first place, they were going to fly around it. They made the calculation wrong, they weren’t supposed to turn the minute they did and the pilots didn’t have “enough” experience they said, don’t remember really how they meant. But something like they didn’t have enough hours of experience, they hadn’t been in the air for many hours total, for making a decision like they did.

Four rows of passengers seated right next to the cargo door were almost immediately ejected out into the sky seats and everything, another passenger from the closest seat on the other side was sucked out as well, though not with their seat. One flight attendant held onto the railing of the stairs for dear life as the air continued to flow out of the cabin.
