    Their story is the most inspirational I've ever heard of. Their will, their faith and their determination is something we should all strive to. I admire them greatly.

    These men just don’t understand how in AWE people are of them. I would love to meet them at a reunion.

    Nando was the ultimate hero, arguably best I've heard in human history. Yet people almost forget Roberto climbed that mountain, and walked the entire way step by step with Nando. I'm glad he's talking more and writing books now. We can learn a lot from him. He was a boss just as much as Nando was. Almost unbelievable what they did after 60 days of living like that. Would be awesome to talk to, or meet, either one of these guys if i ever got the chance.

      Roberto is a hero, an incredible strong man, like Nando.
      Don't forget that Nando lost his mother and sister, in plus, increasing the horror.

      Canessa walked out and was also the doctor, exerted his energies toward the group the entire time. He is just as much a hero as parrado in my eyes.

      ​@@shapjuto me he is more of a heroe since day one he was sacrificing himself for others and after the rescue he continued until now saving lifes, helping poor people, creating a foundation for the poor with the families of the non-survivers, winning international rugby games, being their key player and president later.

      Yes they did hiked the Andes but they did it because they had the support from those who died and gived their bodies, and those who stayed. Everybody had something to put into that cause. They were all important.

    Their willingness to live in such dire circumstances is nothing short of admirable.
