Greatest. Survivalist. EVER! (Alexander Selkirk)
You may have read "Robinson Crusoe". You may have seen 2000's Tom Hanks movie "Cast Away". But as always, fact is stranger than fiction. And the story of Scotsman Alexander Selkirk's 4-year survival in a remote uninhabited island over 400 miles west of modern Chile is one for the books. Literally. They literally based books off him. But this is the real story. Thanks for watching!
