438 Days in Hell: The Story of a Statistical Miracle

In today’s episode of The Unlearned Fact, we uncover the chilling true survival story of José Salvador Alvarenga—the man who shattered the world record for the longest solo survival at sea.

With his engine dead, his radio fried, and his companion tragically lost, he had to resort to the unimaginable just to stay alive: eating raw seabirds, catching sharks with his bare hands, and drinking turtle blood to combat deadly dehydration. How did he manage to cross an astonishing 11,000 kilometers of open ocean entirely by accident? And why did a massive lawsuit await him the moment he finally returned home?
