Andes crash Survivors Today: A plane crash in 1972 shocked the world. Recently, Netflix presented a Spanish Survival Drama film, “Society of the Snow,” which is based on that shocking event of 1972. The movie is originally adapted from the book “Society of the Snow” by Pablo Vierci.

In 1972, a group of Uruguayan Rugby players and others embarked on a trip to Santiago. While crossing the great Andean Mountain range, they were unaware of the upcoming danger. A snowy blizzard weakened their plane. Soon, the tail end of the plane was hit by an avalanche, causing the plane to completely break. It crashed in the middle of snowy mountains with a temperature of minus 86 degrees. In this situation, 40 people, who were barely alive, couldn’t survive for long. In the end, only 16 people survived.

This is the story of these 16 people, how they fought the situation, how they stayed strong, and how they got rescued. After fighting in that tough situation for nearly 71 days, Roberto and Nando were finally rescued. They trekked in the mountains for nearly 10 days to find any trace of land, and they successfully did it. Now, everyone has one question left: where are these 16 people now?
