À propos de cet audio

She was 17 years old on a Christmas Eve flight 40 years ago to join her father for Christmas when the unimaginable happened. The Lockheed L-188A Electra, on the way from Lima to Pucallpa, flew directly into a thunderstorm. A strike of lightning left the plane incinerated and Juliane Diller (Koepcke) still strapped to her plane seat falling through the night air two miles above the Earth. Her survival is unexplainable and considered a modern-day miracle. Her mother was among the 91 dead and Juliane the sole survivor. For 11 days she crawled and walked alone through the jungle, fighting for her survival again with hunger and despair her only companions as maggots ate their way into her wounds. Juliane ultimately survives and goes on to live an inspiring life as a scientist continually drawn back to the terrain that threatened to take her. On the 40th anniversary, she shares not only the private moments of her survival and rescue but her life in the wake of the dramatic true story.

Beyond how to survive a plane crash, the author was the lone survivor of a plane that vanished in the rainforest, as a child. Rather than told in a linear fashion, her story is told in the present day, looking back. It takes time to build up to the actual crash, and the moment she found alive, and alone. How she survived is truly remarkable. A good listen.

It was a really interesting story. Unfortunately the narrator mispronounced words and her accent was terrible, really ruined the presentation for me.
