After six months he just didn't think about home but in his mind he belonged to the sea and just had to do what was necessary to survive each day at a time. That's an incredible mindset. Be grateful for surviving even one more day! ❤
@@jishnukm9215 Not likely. He said he spoke daily to the corpse to keep his mental health. If you see everything else he says, you will see this is most likely true, and in that case, the corpse would have rotted in that time. So not likely at all.
The book that was written about this man's survival story is absolutely gripping. Just about anyone else would have failed to live as long as he did. He was a fisherman and understood how to catch food without the right gear. And he had a tremendous amount of faith. Plus it gives the perspective of the others involved, including those who went to look for him, and the person that found him in the Marshall Islands.
Hello, glad you found this video from 2017 and hope you like it. Where did you find these discrepancies? We checked his spanish and our subtitles in english and they seem ok.
The meaning is the important thing. It is very dificult translate this man because...how can I say it? Eh...spanish is my mother language and it is difficult ever for me to understand what he says.He barely speaks spanish...
This man dealt with a lot of shit after surviving being lost at sea. People calling him a lier just because he (his face) looked a bit chubby. And then the family of his partner accusing him of cannibalism even though there was never any proof of it and then have news articles slamming alot of negativity at him. I don't see anyway what he went through would be faked at all. People are always trying to go after anyone. I feel sorry for what he went through.
Sorry to tell you this but your translation of what the Gentlemen is saying is completely wrong!!!! Spanish is my first language and it’s clear that you’re unable to translate what he’s really saying.... You’re adding more and taking away from what he’s actually saying.
Bueno no, hombre, si el español es tu lengua materna te das cuenta que traducir a este hombre es muy dificil, sólo se puede traducir la idea porque si vas a palabra por palabra, no se entiende nada. Incluso nosotros hacemos un esfuerzo para entenderlo.Yo no ví ninguna diferencia en la idea. Con respecto a las palabras claro que sí porque Salvador se ve que es un hombre poco instruido, no sabe ni hablar, yo he visto otros videos y cómo traducis " gomitos"? No dice vómitos, dice gomistos. No.lo critico , sólo digo que a para alguien cuya lengua materno no es el español se le debe hacer muy dificil traducirlo, para nosotros es muy fácil pero ponete en el lugar de la persona que hizo la traducción. A veces conviene dejar de mirarse eo ombligo y ver las cosas desde el punto de vista de realidades diferentes.
>>Translation is way outside of reality, is like whoever posted this wanted to build their on script. I ‘m hispanic. I'm not hispanic, but I've studied Spanish. I'm not that great at it, but I could still tell the subtitles were waaaaaaaaaaay off.
This guy must have become one of the most famous people on earth though he and his survival adventure are long forgotten and seem, didnt even recieve a proper global attention at the time of the event.
@@javierhawit4388 You want to prosecute him for that even if he does? You fucking don't care bout him for months that he's gone but asking damn question now.
i said that because i m reading the book 438...that says that alvaro escaped from outlaws in SALVADOR..and lived at costa azul..so i think he makes this story to save his live from theme..
Carter Capell because he wouldn’t eat the raw fish or drink his own urine dumbass kid I’d do anything to survive this man has balls of steel god bless him rip to that little bitch feel bad for his family
@@moelefty3104 man, Its not the same. One thing is to talk about it and and another such a different thing is deal with pain and suffering on the middle of the ocean for true. I think I would survive too, but we really dont know it
is this story true??..i can not believe it..specially when we see his health after being found..he looks very well..not like what a castwy look like..what do you think..i want to be convienced...thank you
Ppl ask him what would he have brought? So stupid. Obviously he would never go. They want him to say He would have brought fire... or tools or some shit.
Great channel. Good questions Just work on your questions in more detail. Focus on skills for survival: Recommendations for people in similar situations or going through rough times in life. Embrace and celebrate your guest. Make a list. Mindset, faith, focusing on survival, on the moment, positive outlook, survival skills (which?)...
God was watching over him .Miracles do happen & this proves it .God rest his friend's soul .This is awful I don't think I could have survived it but u never know until something like that happens to u .
Jackyblue67 Same God freaking hates him. God hates us all. God is a jealous psychopath or an illusion a toy, a Bronze aged sky goblin an imaginary security guard.
For sure. God's plan for each of us is unique, he never puts us thru anything that we can't handle. Life lessons/ordeals often bring us closer to God as it did with Alverenga.. God gave him a challenge that matched his abilities and he survived this ordeal with strengthened faith.
Jc Cordero te voy hacer una pregunta cuando vos estas comiendo te podes tirar pedos y no sientes asco pero si se los tira otra gente y estas comiendo es logico que vas asentir asco. Asies que. Una mismo no se tiene asco i se puede comer uno mismo pero comerse otra persona es diferente asi es que Antes de habrir el osico. Para opinar hay que fijarse
Esta delirando Su amigo se murio por que despues de comerse un pajaro infectado se puso muy mal y le dio miedo volver a comer, imaginate comerse a alguien infectado, desnutrido y echado a perder por el sol, cuando aun tenias suficiente comida de pajaros y tortugas pues eran apenas el segundo mes y estaban cerca de islotes
vanak vanak who knows in the book he says that his partner Cordova stopped eating because he ate a bird that swallowed a yellow bellied serpent. Cordova got poisoned and was sick for two days. That traumatized Cordova and starved to death. He died and kept him on board the ship for ten days then threw him over at night. I don’t think he had the conscious to do it.
This guys lying. He said the reason his friend didn’t survive was because he wasn’t brave & didn’t believe in God. His friend didn’t survive because he killed and ate him.
Da Dank Side cool. Did he admit that to you or one of the family? I can imagine it would be a shameful thing to say so he wouldn’t want anyone to know the truth. He was so fit and healthy though when he was found that its hard to believe he didn’t eat him.
This guy is a true survivor. I can't imagine the pain he went through
After six months he just didn't think about home but in his mind he belonged to the sea and just had to do what was necessary to survive each day at a time. That's an incredible mindset. Be grateful for surviving even one more day! ❤

Subtitles are way off..
Why are the subtitles just entirely different to what he’s actually saying?
Hello, glad you found this video from 2017 and hope you like it. Where did you find these discrepancies? We checked his spanish and our subtitles in english and they seem ok.
@@survivopedia5452 Subtitles convey his meaning perfectly. But i undersyand why the guy asking might be a bit confused about it.

I agree...they are very distracting as a bilingual speaker.
As a cancer survivor i relate to his mindset.. faith and strength.. they go side by side

he is really true hero he doesn't give up, yes if we dosen't give up we will succeed no matter how we saw in life.
Translation is way outside of reality, is like whoever posted this wanted to build their on script. I ‘m hispanic.
Pacheco Ramos I’m not Hispanic and could still tell the translation was way off. I only speak a little bit of Spanish.
Right. I understand a little but and he is saying way more words than the translator
Lol yes anglophone Californian here and I’m like… um, no. We need someone else to translate this!
I was going to point out this. The translation is awful.
>>Translation is way outside of reality, is like whoever posted this wanted to build their on script. I ‘m hispanic.

Quien escribió la traducción, esta malísima,
Crappy translation... Wayyy off, way way off...
This man must not even wanna shower after an experience like this. Holly cow he got balls of steel!
he said in the begging he did not want to shower for that reason
Absolutely terrible translation.
Thank you very much for this much appreciated!
I just finished the book. I couldn't put it down🙏
This guy must have become one of the most famous people on earth though he and his survival adventure are long forgotten and seem, didnt even recieve a proper global attention at the time of the event.
Bad underwriting translation can any body see that's stupid!!!
Una historia increíble y sin comparación. RREESSPPEETTOO!!! PS. Read the book once and am gonna get it out again from the library!
Thank you for talking about this. So glad you made it through this long ordea.l
bad translation
They should make an episode of [I Shouldn't be Alive] with his case.
Heck even a full length movie
"AL MEDIO AÑO YA ME ADAPTÉ YO A QUE YA ERA DEL MAR " HE AQUI LA CLAVE DE SU SUPERVIVENCIA... ADAPTACIÓN!!!
Willpower to be alive it's a good thing.This guy is real survivor.
Annoying interviewer. Get off the script and ask some damn follow-up questions.

Its 438 not 483😅
The summary video I watched on this was more informative than this guys personal account haha but glad he made it
Do they make a movie about it?
Fueron 438 Días , no 483 .

Well he travelled close to the equator most of the time with comfy / tropical temparatures

It's really the mind set...
It was the awakening of his conscience!

Jackyblue67 Same God freaking hates him. God hates us all. God is a jealous psychopath or an illusion a toy, a Bronze aged sky goblin an imaginary security guard.
following your stupid logic god made him lost at sea and god made his friend die a horrible and painful death. religious people are so dumb sometimes.
god stranded him at sea for 400+ days, alone, witnessing the death of his friend. some god ain't that?
Amen
For sure. God's plan for each of us is unique, he never puts us thru anything that we can't handle. Life lessons/ordeals often bring us closer to God as it did with Alverenga.. God gave him a challenge that matched his abilities and he survived this ordeal with strengthened faith.

Life is a test.
"After my companion died, I continued to talk to his body for 6-7 days."
Translation: I kept his body on the boat so I wouldn't die of starvation
No. Probably used him as bait though.
he probably killed other guy....as starving was issue, both guys may be worried about their own saftey from one another at one point.
vanak vanak who knows in the book he says that his partner Cordova stopped eating because he ate a bird that swallowed a yellow bellied serpent. Cordova got poisoned and was sick for two days. That traumatized Cordova and starved to death. He died and kept him on board the ship for ten days then threw him over at night. I don’t think he had the conscious to do it.
So maybe he would have had to cut open the belly of all the birds before they ate them?
Understanding how parasites work..... man they need a parasite cleanse asap.
He looks like el chapo
I smell bullshit
I am 100% sure that he ate the other guy.
Tenzin Hayer do you see
If you read the book you'll be 400% sure that he eat the poor kid
Jajaja I don't stink so
Imagine being alone in your grave...
ALLAH 😪😪
There is no women survived sea alone
A woman from my country will
This guys lying. He said the reason his friend didn’t survive was because he wasn’t brave & didn’t believe in God. His friend didn’t survive because he killed and ate him.
global.001 what time he said like that?
He died from hunger and then ate him when he was already dead
Da Dank Side we will never get a straight answer from him
Da Dank Side cool. Did he admit that to you or one of the family? I can imagine it would be a shameful thing to say so he wouldn’t want anyone to know the truth. He was so fit and healthy though when he was found that its hard to believe he didn’t eat him.
global.001 I’d eat my dead friend if I was adrift with no food and starving for 14 months. Why do people assume he killed the guy?
Why does anyone believe this ?
kathyb799 read the book 438 days. It tells his story of him lost at sea
Leonardo Becerra so because he told a story to someone and a book was written means it’s true ??? Lol
Da Dank Side money
I don’t
kathyb799 why don’t you?
