El milagro de los Andes (o la tragedia) A 50 AÑOS... ¡GUSTAVO ZERBINO en EXCLUSIVA!

Fifty years after the events, we interviewed Don Gustavo Zerbino, a protagonist and survivor of the Andes tragedy—or miracle—for the second time. Zerbino was one of the two doctors on the mountain, but he was also one of the first expedition members. Contrary to his portrayal in the 1992 film "Alive," he was always in favor of cannibalism for survival. He could have been part of the final expedition team had he not suffered a harrowing ordeal outside the fuselage (near the summit) during one of the early expeditions (along with Numa Turcatti and Daniel Maspons). This ordeal left him temporarily blind, with loose teeth, and physically unfit. Gustavo Zerbino remained on the mountain for 73 days, unable to board the first rescue helicopters on December 22, 1972.
