50 AÑOS DEL MILAGRO DE LOS ANDES: "Siento mucho orgullo" Roberto Canessa

On October 13, 1972, a plane with 45 people on board crashed in the Andes. Only 16 of them survived, having been stranded for 72 days in the middle of a glacier. The young Uruguayan rugby players belonged to the Old Christians team and had traveled to Chile with friends and family. The plane crashed on October 13, 1972, in the middle of the Andes Mountains. After eight days, the search operation was suspended and they were presumed dead. However, Roberto Canessa and Nando Parrado went out in search of help until they found the muleteer who helped them. TN recalls, along with one of the survivors, Roberto Canessa, what the search operation that was carried out at that time was like. "When the muleteer went to ask for help, they didn't believe him." "You can be happy with very little, and I learned that in the Andes." "Having life is the greatest treasure." "Cucho" CATALÁN - Son of the Chilean muleteer who rescued them "I went back to them because I thought they needed a hug." ★ Subscribe to our channel → https://bit.ly/365OTiS ★ Get the news on our website → https://tn.com.ar/ ★ And don't forget to follow us on social media!
