Amazing reaction! I love your editing as well, subscribed ❤
Thank you!!
The guy who reads the names at the end says "Carlitos Miguel Paez, my son". He's Carlitos himself. He played his own father, who was a famous Uruguayan artist.
Yes. I believe we mention it in the reaction 🙌
@@joshandcasey The man who opens the door at the airport for Nando and his family IS the real Nando. The doctor behind Roberto during the hospital scene is the real Roberto, the real Carlitos plays his father saying the names of the survivors (including his). And there are also some other survivors in different scenes, such as Moncho Sabella (during the scene where Liliana and Javier are saying goodbye to their children), Coche Inciarte (during the bar scene) and Daniel F. Strauch is spotted front row during the church scene. Also some survivor family members might appear in different scenes. Some survivor cameos were left out from the movie, including the ones of Tintin and Zerbino.
Great video!
29:09 - because Nando Parrado is basically the epitome of a Big Damn Hero, he was constantly looking back while they were walking, making sure he remembered where they came from and what the mountains looked like. After he and Roberto were found and he pointed out the spot on a map the rescue pilots were like, nope, that's not possible, you haven't walked all that way. That's why he went on the helicopter to guide them - and obviously, the plane was exactly where he said it'd be.
These men are all incredible. I grew up on Alive (which is the Americanised version of this movie from 1993 and also the title of the first book about the events), and I'm so glad this movie finally told the story the way it deserved to be told.
It is definitely one of the most heroic stories of all time. Thanks for the background!
The way he tells it in interviews, he didn't volunteer and it wasn't a choice, they just put him in the helicopter. The pilot was also concerned about flying above the altitude the helicopter was designed for and wanted to turn back, but he convinced him to keep going.
The fact that this was the first time ever acting for most of them its absolutely crazy. One of them was a farmer before this film. Now they answer is "I guess im an actor now"
They did an unbelievable job!
The guy playing Tintin, Agustin della Corte, was an actual rugby player who answered the casting call because they were looking for guys with rugby experience and he didn't know immediately what the movie was about until much later!
Some facts that wasn’t included or changed in the film:
- Numa didn’t hurt his leg that way, one of the survivors said in his book that at night someone stepped on his foot and hurt his leg which lead to him getting infected (they don’t know who stepped on him because it was so dark).
- Carlitos said that the reason they survived was because they worked together and trusted each other, he also said no one complained during the time they were at the mountains. No one was allowed to complain because technically they were all in the same position.
- They pranked each other quite a lot during their time at the mountains, Fito made some of the survivors believe that another avalanche was coming a few days before their rescue. Some joked about their situation and the meat especially Carlitos.
- Carlitos also said that although no one fought during their time in the mountains, there was some tension between a few of them because some would be just doing nothing to help and the others had to do most of work around.
- They weren’t rescued on the same day, some were rescued first and the rest were rescued the next day because the helicopter couldn’t hold that much weight.
edit: what kept the real numa alive was that he really wanted to help, so when the others told him that he couldn’t help anymore he became depressed and due to infection also stopped eating because he had no appetite. he then died weighing 25 kg (55 pounds).
The survivers said that when somebody do somethings wrong or Bad, the rest just ignore, and that was terrible because mean stop of exist in that time. Sorry Bad english.
@@nicolaspinto76 I said something similar in different words, they still didn’t fight. I watched many their interviews.
Wow that’s crazy! Thanks for sharing!
About cooking the meat: the fires they tried to light didn’t last long and even tho they did cook the first meat they ate, they noticed that 1) the meat shrinks when u cook it which means less quantity and 2) fats are cooked as well, and u need as much of anything when living in those conditions. So they decided ti eat it raw as to preserve as much fats and also have more “quantity” of it so to speak
Ah makes sense. Thank you 🙏
Young, educated, group-oriented, practicing catholics/rugby players (most of them) guys. All 14 of the 16 original survivors are still leading good, useful lives. This story is completely unique. And the movie is phenomenal.
Yes, amazing movie!
Just FYI:
The movie from 1990's "Viven!" Is the one that's Hollywoodized, this new one here is REALLY accurate, according to the survivors themselves.
Yeah this one, you feel like you were there.
That's right! This movie (SOTS-2023) is approved by all the survivors and the families of the deceased for being as accurate as the real facts happened. They don't like "Alive" (1993) at all.
Still not 100%. The avalanche was at night, not during the day. And the real rescue was quite different.
“Fun” fact - nearly all of the survivors were regularly taking flights right after this (I think Bobby Francois was one of the only ones who refused to do it). In fact, Nando and Roberto went to the US by plane just a year after to promote a book about this story and Roberto writes in his own biography that during these flights Nando would constantly poke at him and ask if they should “get ready, just in case” 👀 the balls on those guys…
Crazy fact! I don’t know if I’d be able to fly again
pancho too
I also read that professional mountaineers were amazed at how these kids did the hike that they did. It would be an incredible feat for experienced hikers with the proper gear, let alone these guys.
What they accomplished was unbelievable!
I've read and watched some accounts by the survivors, and the answer to them not lighting a fire is that; they did, a few times! They even tried cooking the meat once. But there wasn't a lot of materials they could use to make a fire as most of them were very wet and their fires never burned for long because of the brutal weather.
Also, they had so many cigarettes because two of the survivors worked in the tobacco industry and as there was a tobacco shortage in Chile at the time and most of them were heavy smokers, they brought a looooot of cigarettes for the trip hahaha
Ah that explains it! Thanks for informing us
Ah makes more sense now, thanks!
Also at that high, there is not much oxygen, making it even harder to make a fire
They even burned their money. One of the survivors said the burned up to $7,000 in bills. It was just paper, it had no value in the mountain.
Of the survivors there are only 14 left of the 16. Two have passed, they are Javier Methol (the older gentleman whose wife died in the avalanche) passed in 2015, and Coche Inciarte (one of the rugby players who passed 2022).
You asked where some of them are today:
Nando Parrado (the man whose mother and sister died and one of the ones who walked out and who wrote "Miracle of the Andes") is an entrepreneur who runs several businesses and who is a motivational speaker.
Roberto Canessa (the other who walked out with Nando and was the 2nd year med student) is now a world renown pediatric cardiologist who operates on fetuses in-utero. He has also written a book titled, "I Had to Survive."
Eduardo Strauch (one of the men who cut the meat) is now a painter and motivational speaker. He also is the guide in a yearly trek that adventurers make up to the crash site. He says he still hears his brothers speaking to him from up on the mountain.
Many of the others became successful businessmen and others returns to the rugby club including Gustavo Zerbino (the other med student who helped Roberto).
A word about the cigarettes. Coche Inciarte was the one who packed them. He was taking them to Chile for his friends who wanted them as Chile puts a stop to the amount you can have. He was as he stated, "Being selfless."
Javier Methol went on to marry again, and have four more children. He never forgot his love for his Liliana. When he died his ashes were split and half were buried in a cemetery in Montevideo. The other half were taken back up to the mountain and scattered over the crash site. The same with Coche.
As for the smoking, a lot of the guys who did smoke said it stemmed their appetite so they weren't as hungry.
There are three of the survivors in the film. The first is Nando Parrado who holds the door open for his movie counterpart at the airport. The next is Carlitos Paez who plays his own father who searched for his son. Carlitos is the one who reads off the names of the survivors. The last is Roberto Canessa who can be seen in the white medical coat helping his film counterpart walk into the hospital.
Enzo Vogorincic who plays Numa Turcatti the narrator, was allowed access to the real Numa's home. Enzo was able to see Numa's bedroom and touch some of his belongings as he prepared for the role. The other actors were also granted special access to their counterpart's lives and homes.
Filming locations were in the Sierra Sierra Nevada, Granada, Andalucía, Spain. JA Bayona did go up to the Valley of Tears where the crash site is and filmed various things to be used as backdrops for the film. The sound engineer also recorded the wind and some of the sounds from the valley. Many of the actors also went up to the real crash site.
Also they actors lose weight meanwhile they film the movie for 4 months.
Thank for you sharing!
Coche and Daniel Fernandez also appears in the movie. Daniel is in the church and Coche in the cafeteria where Numa is with Pancho Delgado and Gaston. Numa’s home is the real one and the person he crosses in the street when he is arriving there is Numa’s brother.
It wasn't Coche that brought the cigarettes, at least not all of them. Javier Methol Abal and his cousin Francisco Abal worked at their family's cigarette factory and so they were bringing a ton of cigarettes with them.
@piratesswoop725 Coche said he packed them.
So some feedback - I’m 15 minutes in, and I think you guys make more jokes than actually watching the movie and appreciating it and the real life situation for what it is. You talked over some deep and important parts. Also leaving the subtitles on would have been great for non Spanish speakers
Thanks for the feedback. There is much less talking in full version. Remember, the reaction is only 35 min for a 2 hour plus movie. Also, we didn’t realize this posted version didn’t have subtitles. We’d re-do it but don’t want to re upload another video.
Agreed. Also, not sure it's worth uploading a 35 min version. The edit is so choppy, can't really appreciate much. I've watched at least 20 other reactions to this film... still waiting for reel rejects to post theirs... and a proper reaction needs to be closer to the hour mark, otherwise between the pauses for commentary... it's just too choppy.
We will keep that in mind for future reactions. Thank you!@@annakmeneses
Thank you
I thought i was the only one thinking that way. Pretty dumb isn't it?
By The way: De nada
@@annakmenesesI’m dying for Reel Rejects to upload a reaction to this too
"Couldn't they have put on more layers?" They crashed late into the day on the 13th. They didn't have long to do much of anything before the sun set behind the mountains and the temperature plummeted. Only a few boys thought to grab some extra layers, but even that barely provided much protection in the subzero temps. There were some who weren't thinking straight right afterward and were in shock. They really didn't know what to do with themselves or how to process their situation. A few just sat dumbfounded on the snow with cigarettes and booze. Those who had more leadership qualities and/or had their wits about them (like Roberto, Zerbino, Marcelo, etc) were too busy helping the injured or were injured themselves. Trying to help people took priority over everything else and the leaders were putting those able to work to assist in the effort. So they had less than an hour before the light went out, the temps dropped, and everyone ran back into the fuselage. Most of the suitcases were used to hold back the wind, weighed down by the contents inside (although, not shown in the movie, the wind still regularly blew down their barricade, so they often had to rebuild it several times every night).
While there were some suitcases in the plane with them that first night, which they could have searched through, every time someone moved it bumped into someone else. The fuselage was crammed full of the bodies of the living and the dead, as well as broken seats and debris. Each time someone moved even just to scratch an itch or cough, that created a ripple effect and the injured had their wounds bumped. There was a lot of screaming and cursing that first night whenever someone moved.
They did put on more layers the 2nd day, but most of their clothes were meant for warm weather in Chile. They also had to use a lot of clothes as bandages and such. They were also splitting clothes from carry-on luggage bags between 27 people. And that was only a small amount. Several bags were sucked out during the crash. A lot of the luggage was in the back of the plane. When the boys found the tail they were able to bring back more clothes for everyone.
Thank you for clarifying!
You guys seem to be more interested in cracking jokes than actually reacting to the movie. There were some really deep scenes where you didn't gave the seriousness it deserved.
We only joked about if it were Americans. And as we have already mentioned, this is only a 35 minute reaction for a 2 hour plus movie. You are only seeing the snippets where we had something to say. That is what our Patreon is for, full length reactions.
It is my second time watching this movie, and it still makes me tear up. Fun Fact: Numa’s nephew was also in the film; he was the one who said hello to Numa. Numa’s family had also let production use their house for the film.
The other survivors were in the movie as different characters. Unfortunately, they deleted their scenes, but in the credits, you can find their names.
Amazing movie, thanks for the fun facts!
Some of them believe they heard a third avalanche, but after two nobody cared much about counting them.
Terrifying..
Something that is crazy is that for most of these guys, it was their first time acting, unbelievable! They are so great! Deserved some nominations for that
Absolutely! Amazing acting
Roy Harley knew how to fix the first radio because a friend he knew taught him. I also think he was an engineering student at the time but I think he was only a first year student so not enough experience to get the other radio working to reach out for help.
Some experts latter clarified that with the equipment they had, it was impossible to make the radio work, so his inexperience didn't prevent him from making it work, it's more that it made him unaware that it couldn't.
Thanks for answering that!
@@santiago1234567890correct, they needed to connect it to a specific voltage that was not available, and that’s something they were not aware of.
It’a a mistake to believe that because Uruguay is in South America their people are believers. In fact, it’s the most atheist country in the entire American continent. These kids came from a Catholic school, which is why many of them were such believers.
Interesting, thanks for the background!
I just realized, watching this reaction now after watching this movie once myself prior, that the song playing over the film where they are all at the airport foreshadows Numa’s death later on in the film. In the airport scene the song says “we want u to dance” playing over a scene of Numa walking through the airport. And before Numa dies he says he wishes he can dance again before his inevitable death he knew was coming and that he was beginning to sadly accept by that point :( this movie man, incredible. The song itself too is almost as if the actors themselves, Bayona the director, the survivors, etc are saying we wish u could be dancing along side us today. We want u to dance. We so badly wanted u to live. But now we will dance for u and live in ur memory. Incredible.
Good catch!
That song was writen and played by the uruguayan band The Shakers, and for many years, millions of southamerican people thought it was by The Beatles!! Regards.
@@rubenacevedo2484 oh that’s great to know! Thank u for telling me :)
Thank you for reacting to this movie, especially in its original language, not enough people are reacting to it!! lots of love from ecuador 🇪🇨
Thank you! ❤
A few things:
Not all actors were Uruguayan, most of them are from Argentina, but none of them were recognized actors or had experience making movies. One of the actor was a former rugby player from Uruguay. They did a great job in adapting the rioplatense accent.
The guy that you identified at the beginning of the movie (airport scene) as one of the survivors was Nando Parrado, the one who did the last expedition with Roberto Canessa. In the movie, he is opening the door to his own family.
The guy that reads the names is not Bobby Francois (that’s the one you mentioned you thought it was). The guy that reads the names is Carlitos Miguel Páez, and he is playing his own father (Carlos Páez Vilaró) who in the real events read the names, hence the “Carlitos Miguel Páez, mi hijo” in the movie. He read his own son name that way.
Roberto Canessa (the other one who did the 10 days expedition with Parrado), also has a cameo. He is the one dressed as a doctor behind the actor that plays Canessa. Canessa almost died in that last expedition. He caught dysentery, that’s why he couldn’t get in the helicopter.
There were three medicine students that survive the crash. Canessa, 19 years old, second year of school; Zervino (he is the one that collects the letters and belonging from the deceased), 19 years old, first year of school; and Maspons (he is one of the three that spent a night outside - Zervino and Numa were the other two) who died in the avalanche.
The fire aspect was already covered in another comment, but I also need to add that they didn’t have that much to burn. They had nothing and in their mind, anything they burned could be useful in the next days, they just didn’t know how, so they were trying to keep everything. For instance, they used the cover of the seats as blankets, they used the cushion of the seats to protect their feet during the expeditions, you saw how they built the beds (hammocks) and how they created the sunglasses.
The movie was mainly filmed in Sierra Nevada, Spain. They only went to the place of the accident to take some footage to digitally change Sierra Nevada mountains with the Andes mountains. Only the actors that played Canessa and Parrado filmed a short scene there.
Pretty much none of the survivors suffered PTSD. They openly said that they don’t suffer from nightmares. They returned to Uruguay on a plane, two or three days after the rescue and they’ve been flying the world since then. One of them, Eduardo Strauch, says that he has always loved airplanes.
I agree this is the best movie of the year and it should be the best movie of the decade, too bad it did not get as many Oscars nominations as it deserves, but I think American people prefer war/Nazi stories than this kind of story. Did you see what I did there ?😉
On that same line I have to say, I liked your reaction but, there were too many analogies in your comment that it really did not contribute too much to what I expect on a reaction. You either talked too much or did not show your reaction on key scenes where the conversation between characters was very deep and beautiful. I would’ve loved to see some reactions on that (eg. Methol telling Numa he felt so much love when he hugged his wife and that he knew at the moment what his purpose of life was - this conversation comes from Methol’s own contribution to the book “La Sociedad de la Nieve” or when Arturo Nogueira is having that conversation with Numa about God, which in reality happened with Nando and Arturo was actually saying that he believed in God more than ever). Just some food for thought. I don’t get tired of watching this movie, it is sad but uplifting at the same time. It makes you appreciate all you have and force you to try to be a better person.
Thank you for all the interesting information!
Maspons did go on that expedition with Numa and Zerbino. However he isn't the third Medical Student amongst the initial survivors (besides Cannesa and Zerbino)...that was actually Diego Storm and he was the one who felt responsible to keep Parrado alive during his coma. If he hadn't moved him further inside the fuselage and kept him warm at night through proximity/body heat, (while his brain injury/swelling healed) he would have died from cold.
Sadly, both Storm and Maspons, died in that avalanche.
@@MayUFreaky You are absolutely right. He was a Vet student, however, as some of the survivors have confirmed, they referred to him as the third student of medicine (that survive the crash), because he also took care of the injured, same was as Zervino did with three months of school medicine.
As uruguayan i love how this story is getting so much notice. We grew up with this example of survival and it made us so grateful for all the little things. It is so important to know this story to appreciate life and family so much. Thank you for watching
Thanks for the information!
yeah, those aren't product placements. the coke crates were actually the one things they did burn at first until they were gone and then the adidas bags were actually in the real pictures that they're recreating. this isn't a movie with sponsors. ja bayona had to fight for over a decade to get the movie they wanted to make (in spanish) made and netflix finally let him do it but they clearly didn't expect it to be as good as it is because they put all their money and oscar pushing towards maestro instead. if it was an english speaking movie, they probably would have had more faith and would have pushed it more because this has best picture written all over it and the snubs are insane. i'm glad they got two noms but god the score and sound editing and acting snubs are painful.
i clearly hold no grudges lmao
The actors were Argentinian and Uruguayan, but it's a Spanish (Spain) production. There was a crappy Hollywood version starring Ethan Hawke on 1993.
The choice of Numa being narrator is to highlight the "society", all of the ones who never left the mountain too.
They were stacked with cigarettes because brands are hard to find country to country, particularly during that period.
Today, no one would've survived the crash, October down here is spring, and due to global warming, there's no snow at that location in spring. Impact would've been fatal.
We're here for commentary, it's ok if you talk.
Love from Argentina.
Thank you for the notes! Glad you enjoyed it! Gracias
@@joshandcasey de nada!
America did a movie about this tragedy and it’s called Alive. It’s an adaptation of a book a british writer wrote about this. Horrible. They changed some names, changed things that happened. Survivor didn’t like it and the families of those who died either.
Society of the snow is an adaptation of the book (same name) and it was written by an uruguayan writer who was childhood friends with the survivors and it’s the story told by them. Better book and better movie for sure
Yea we heard the other movie wasn’t nearly as good, thanks for the background!
One last thing, I always found it interesting that the survivors still believed in god after this entire incident because if you think about it some people or at least most Americans would have become atheists after something like this, but I watched an interview a few days ago where Gustavo Zerbino said that even though they were in a horrific situation, their faith is what gave them motivation to live. I never thought of it that way until he said it, which is crazy because I am Latina and an ex catholic, I totally forgot that suicide is considered a sin in the religion and if they gave up without fighting for survival that would have be a no.
Americans would’ve handled everything very differently 😂, not necessarily for the better haha
26:46 The oldest of the survivors was Javier Methol (1935-2015), who turned 37 on the same day that Numa died, December 11, 1972. The next oldest is Daniel Fernández Strauch, who was 26 at the time.
On the other hand, they were carrying many cartons of cigarettes because they knew that at that time there was a great shortage of tobacco in Chile, and two of the passengers were linked to the main tobacco company in the country, "Abal Hnos". Pancho Abal, one of those killed in the crash, was the son of one of the owners of that big company.
Thanks for the background!
You have to realise it is the 70s and nearly all of them go to a catholic school.
Ah makes sense
This is currently my favourite movie, thank you so much for reacting to it
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
I don't know if anyone mentioned this yet or if you guys talked about it at some point, but the plane was actually located at almost 12k feet above sea level, because of this it is kind of difficult to light a fire due to oxygen levels, actually the scene after the avalanche they did not light up a lighter and they spent those days in complete darkness to avoid the fire consuming the oxygen so they can breathe themselves. A lot of the things they had were wet due to the snow too, that's why they couldn't really do a campfire. Hope this helps!
It does, thank you for clarifying!
Carlitos Páez, the survivor who plays his own father and reads the names, isn’t one of the guys who made the journey. Those are Roberto Canessa and Fernando (Nando) Parrado.
In the movie when Nando Parrado arrives at the airport with his family, the man who opens the door for him at the airport is the real Nando Parrado. Other survivors made cameos but those scenes sadly got cut off
The real Roberto is one of the doctors who treats them at the hospital when they arrive.
Wow sad that they cut off some survivors scenes!
A lot of the reactions were shocked by the same thing, but they had that many cigarettes because Javier Methol and his cousin Pancho Abal, who was a player from the rugby team, both worked at Pancho's family business, they had a cigarette company.
Pancho invited Javier on the trip because they were planning to hopefully expand to Chile so they took a lot of boxes with them, since the tickets were cheap he decided to take his wife Liliana and celebrate their wedding anniversary.
Thanks for the background!
I was born in Uruguay where I live. I was at high school when this happened and I remember it vividly. The casting took about 8 months and the Argentinian actors had to adapt their speech to our Uruguayan accent which are slightly different from each other, but very distinctive from other accents.
There are many, many, countless reactions and reviews on the net about this movie. It's so shocking.
But the point I want to make is that most of them refer to the strength of love, religion, and friendship.
However, I see something different here. Hollywood mostly portraits two sides of the story - the good and the bad, the white and the black, the hero and the villain. This picture aims, as I see it, at showing that choral movies are possible. There’s leadership of course, but it shifts from one character to another according to the situation. That shows that a society can be horizontal and that leadership can be shared according to the necessity of the conditions and the capacity of the actors.
The fact that Numa was chosen to be the narrator is absolutely genius. He acts as a bridge between the ones who survived and those who passed.
Some people, for instance, Susana, Nando’s sister, had internal injuries but also got frost bite.
Pay attention to the music - it builds up the mood and the feelings of the viewers. Besides, the make-up was unbelievable. The movie was shot chronologically, meaning, once they started it went on along the story. The actors first had to put on some weight, and then, loose it, of course under the care of nutritionists. Some of them got to lose 60 pounds.
The reason why they had so many cigarettes on board is very simple. The effects of smoking were not known at the time so if you wanted to be ‘in’ you had to smoke. Besides, Francisco (Pancho) Abal was the son of the owner of the cigarette factory and Methol used to work there. So they took lots and lots of cigarettes to resell in Chile, right before the coup against President Allende, in Chile since there was a great shortage of them.
I’m stopping here because I can go on and on for ever. Just watch it and see it for yourself. You *WON’T* be disappointed.
Thank you for the background, it is an amazing story!
30:34 I think that is super drinkeable water even on this day, that water is straight up melted from the top of the mountains. All that area is thankfully super clean in terms of contamination. There is no cities near it.
The gentlemen walking by when Numa gets home is Daniel Turcatti. The real Numa's brother.
Daniel died in 2009...
Yes my mistake...it''s his nephew.
30:28 You could say something like, "can you imagine being so thirsty you would drink dirty water?" Try to bring us into the story with the characters. You got this!
The scene when Sergio Catalán founds Canessa and Nando is really impressive, finally another human.
There's a funny story that Roberto told some months ago: When Sergio found us, he throwed bread to Nando, then he goes with Roberto and he breaks the bread in half and says "half and half?" And he accepted the half bread. Later he said to Catalán: Thanks for the bread. And he answers: Just one? I throwed 6 breads.
It looks like that Nando ate the another 5 breads because he was starving.
6:11 I heard they were excited to go to Chile, because they could meet girls and buy new clothes. I imagine they didn't pack their suitcases full because they would need space for the new stuff/souvenirs
I wonder if their packing or flying habits have changed today?
I really like this. The background,. the camera quality, the fact that you two are taking notes. Keep it going.
Thank you so much! 🙏
34:02 Most of them became businessmen, Carlitos Paez became a lecturer he did a lot of talks about it in companies and colleges. Roberto Canessa is one of the best children heart surgeon in South America. He saved the life of hundred of kids. Some other just went to hide from public eyes but these last 10 years they all have talked about it. Nowadays they all do conferences and speak about it in public.
That's amazing!
Three of the survivors made cameos in the movie:
- Fernando "Nando" Parrado: opens the airport door to his character at the beginning of the movie.
- Roberto Canessa: Plays a doctor when they are received at the hospital because he is a doctor in the real life.
- Carlos Paez Rodríguez: Represents his own father (Carlos Paez Vilaró) when he reads the list of survivors reading the name of his own son (“Carlitos Miguel Paez, my son”).
And they were there for 72 days. On the first day of rescue, they took some of them and a group of rescuers stayed who set up a tent a little away because of the smell. The next day they rescued the others.
- The house where Numa arrives is the real Numa's house and the walker is a Numa's nephew.
Hugs from Argentina. 🤗
Thanks for sharing!
Survivorman had an early episode about surviving a plane crash in winter, although his scenario was below the tree line so he had access to food and fuel. Defs worth a watch if you're interested (th-cam.com/video/4ntDFfgxKz4/w-d-xo.html) Some key points that I was reminded of in this movie is that A) Eating snow can hydrate you a little, but your body expends extra calories to warm it up which is extremely dangerous when you're already starving, and B) Working up a sweat in the cold is also really dangerous because your clothes will get wet and then your likelihood of freezing is even higher. Great reaction, guys! Can't wait to see more from you!
Will definitely check that out. Thank you! 🙏
It has to win the Oscar. Best film i've seen in many years. Subscribed
Absolutely, welcome to the channel!
Gracias por el respeto de ver la película en su idioma original! 🙏
De nada!
17:32 In the book they say that they only set a fire once to cook the meat. They burned some crates of Coca-Cola, they were small. When the fire went out, they suffered more from the cold. And after those drawers there was nothing more to burn.
Makes sense. Thanks for enlightening us 🙌
The survivors said that when they got back on surface after the two days buried, that moment was when the "society of the snow" was formed, as their words: "the mountain was giving birth to them."
That's quite the metaphor!
It's not easy to light a fire over 5 kilometers above sea level
Of course we were just wondering why they didn’t show anybody attempting it
Worth to remember that Uruguay is a super flat country, this was the first time ever seeing snow for most of them. They were spoiled highly christian kids. Carlitos Paez even had a "babysitter"
They had a lot of tobacco because Methol worked in the tobacco factory and in Chile they had a shortage.
The water was not contaminated. There's a cameo there when the guy who's reading the list of the survivors is representing his own father and, no, he was not one of two who walked for 10 days climbing mountains, for almost 40 miles, snow waist deep. Nando Parrado who did the walk, lost his mother, his sister and his two best friends in the crash. However, he was determined to go back home and hug his father.
BTW, Uruguay is *NOT* a deeply religious country. Most of us are agnostic or atheists. This group of youngsters used to go to a private catholic school for boys only and they belong to the top of society.
I had read somewhere that glacial water gets contaminated by animal/human feces left on it, guess that place was too remote for even that!
@@joshandcasey The only animal they saw on day 60 (I think) was a condor. Go imagine finding feces up there
great choice for a reaction!! dude on the right looks like a younger Agustin Pichot
Haha can see it!
They had a severe constipation due the cold…
Ahh, makes sense. Thanks
@@joshandcasey some of them struggled with constipation and others had a terrible diarrhea. They even made a bet for who could last the longest before taking a dump and the winner went 34 days constipated. For obvious reasons they were not gonna show any of this in the film lmao.
Instant classic. Wow 😯 what a movie 🎥
Amazing movie!
The amount of cigarettes was due Javier Methol owning a cigarette company, he bringed one or two suitcases full of cigarettes.
Ah, makes sense!
Amazing movie and story!! Great review👏👏👏
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
The back thing are ulceres caused by pressure. It happens to injured people when the weight of the bed its all in one side
Thank your clarifying that!
ohh i wish you had left your reaction to numa's death
Apologies, this was only our second reaction. Still working out the editing process. The full Patreon version has it though
You didn’t even showed us your reaction to Numa’s death 😧 this was lacking a bit of emotion 🫤
This was because of our editor. Apologies. As for the emotion, remember the TH-cam reaction is only 35 minutes. The whole movie is over 2 hours. Our editor only picked the bits in which we commented. The full Patreon reaction has more of it.
@@joshandcaseyBummer! One of the most heartbreaking parts of the movie!
LOL at putting a scene from the Hollywood movie with the real photos at the end XD
Just to show the difference and the behind the scenes 🙌
38:57 thats an image from the movie Alive, a more hollywood friendly versión of the same story
Ah, Thank you for catching that
aw why did they cut the whole numas death scene lol
Sorry we can’t fit everyone in on TH-cam, the full reaction is on our Patreon!
I've thought of moving to Chicago. I've been there 5 times in June, July. But when I mention it to my friends there, they tell me to go one time in the winter to see if I still feel the same. I'm from Socal, so I'll take their word for it. I can take like a week of cold max, and then I'm done.
Haha don’t think you’d enjoy Chicago from October-April then
1 of the passengers , was a family member of the owner of a tobacco company , so the cigarettes in the plane , they packed a lot cigarettes .
Ah, makes sense!
Which I believe were intended to be sold in Chile due to a cigarette shortage there at the time.
Fun Fact: American Football is derived from Rugby!
Didn’t know that, thanks!
In the 1993 movie Alive on the second day after the crash they show Roberto rubbing suzanna feet. I always thought how weird that would be. Being that hurt & having some guy rubbing your feet
That would be strange but had to stay warm!
Hi guys, very good camera, audio and editing, you can make it far with this quality of video, congrats on that. However, for this reaction in particular, i found you missed some of the most important parts of the movie --> the first night in the plane and the death of Numa are two of the most important moments in the movie, I encourage for future occasions to analyse "key" reaction part of movies that cannot be missed on TH-cam.
Otherwise, nice work and keep it going lads!
Appreciate the constructive criticism! Thank you. We will keep that in mind going forward.
Good reaction!! Thanks! Why do you think that the big reaction channels like The Reel Rejects, Popcorn in Bed, TBR Schmit, Badd Medicine, The Homies, Cine Pals, etc, this movie has not entered their radars yet? is it because it is foreign and in another language, that they are not interested in reacting to it? because there are few reactions so far, and it is a very requested movie, it is the hit of the moment on stream, I think they are missing out on gaining many views by not reacting to it, in fact one of the first channels that was encouraged to react to it, The Media Knights channel, that video already has almost 300,000 views, they did very well. And now is the time to react, on the crest of the wave, not next year or in a few months.
I have no idea, but they should because it is an incredible movie!
In Chile, glacial water is really good and pure.... just saying
Good to know! Thanks for sharing 🙏
All the reaction videos from American people are full of ignorant comments like why you make such comment like " thats shout anerica for you" about them smoking, well they have a bunch if cigarret boxes because Chile was going through a shortest of diferent products, including cigarettes, and the survivors are Uruguayan not Chilean. They couldn't make fires because the clothing was wet. And they missed the point if the movie, honoring the lives if the crash victims that didn't make it. And by the way Disney did make a bad movie not authorized by survivors full of lies According to survivors and they don't even mentioned the dead ones by they real names, this movie is truthful and all of their names are there.
We have nothing but respect for the members of the crash. We loved the movie (hence why Josh suggested it). We were just curious why no one attempted to light a fire, but the movie/story is incredible and one of our favorites. And we were joking about Americans not faring well in this kind of situation. It was a compliment to the Uruguayans who showed amazing fortitude and skill.
Muy linda la película. El tema que se escucha cuando llegan al aeropuerto se llama Rompan Todo es un grupo musical Uruguayo de la época que se llama los Shakers
Guau. Realmente mantuvieron la película auténtica.
It's cool watching friends watch this movie, soecially if you understand Spanish!!
It’s a lot of fun, thanks for watching!
There's some of Uruguayan actors (Numa for example) but the majority of them are argentinian. :)
Ah, well that’s still pretty good for a Hollywood movie. They all did an amazing job 🙌
I'm fairly certain that the reason most are Argentenian actors because there is a movie industry there, but not so much in Uruguay. Uruguyan actors/resses tend to participate in the industry there in Argentina.
Also, this isn't a hollywood movie; it is a Spanish movie.
Also, if you haven't seen them: the skin i live in, annihlation, all of us strangers, Revenge, all really good, different movies.
Annihilation is an amazing film!
🇺🇾❤️ Uruguay ❤️🇺🇾
Fun facts said by Carlitos, Bobby was that one member who had no hopes and didn’t participate willingly, they made him. They all had a pact that if they were pessimistic or didn’t do anything you didn’t get food.
The nonconducting sleeping bag was made by Carlitos. He gives it a human value (said in an interview), he is still proud of it because he was a spoiled kid before the accident and during these days he learned to sew.
Nando gave Carlitos one baby l shoe he had for his nephew, Nando said this was a promise that he would go back for it to give it to his nephew. In the movie alive or in this one they gave the shoe to another member not Carlitos, because other members needed attention too lol said by carlitos. carlitos got many things so that's why.
he was the youngest and made his goal to be the funny guy to keep the mood up.
I don’t know if the interview I’m talking about has subtitles but it was such amazing.
They also have a pact that no one can’t talk about who the first body they ate was. They all know but they can’t tell. Said in the interview too.
Coco’s mom was asked about the survivors eating her son, she said she understood and that she was okay with it because they all had a piece of her son
Javier methol was the oldest.
Coche passed away last year from cancer and was the first one to watch the movie because Bayona wanted him to watch it before it was too late.

Thank you for sharing!
I'm fairly certain Javier passed away back around 2015 from cancer. Coche is the one who died last year (also cancer) but was able to view the film first.
@@tjohns25 you’re right! thank you for the correction
"If they were Americans..."? They actually are Americans
They were Uruguayan
Uruguay is in América. South américa is still america
Usually when people say 'American', they're referring to United States. @@lnavictory1
Exactly, another person from the United States speaking with ignorance. America is the whole continent, it doesn't matter how you decide to use it, that doesn't change the fact that all the people from the American Continent are American, period. @@joshandcasey
@@joshandcasey and Uruguay it's in America
Pienso lo mismo me pareció mejor que openhaimer, espero que por lo menos gane el Oscar a mejor película extranjera, aunque se echo en falta otras nominaciones merecidas, como fotografía, o banda sonora.❤❤
¡acordado!
Beatiful movie and nice video guys 🤙
Thank you!
32:02 hey apprecite the spanish there!
🤗
No entendí tantas risas si NO era una película de comedia. En fin en visto tantas reacciones y ésta ha sido la única que no me gustó
Fue sólo nuestra segunda reacción. Realmente disfrutamos la película. También fue la forma en que fue editado lo que hizo que pareciera peor. Estamos mejorando. Gracias por la crítica constructiva.
Guys, bro on the right isn't invested in this at all. And we want emotion and talking about the characters, not the weather. 😂 With that said, I think you have what it takes and practice makes perfect 👍
This was only our second ever reaction. He had already seen the movie and loved it. I think you should watch our newest stuff. We've improved since haha. Listened to the feedback.
@@joshandcasey No prob! Totally understand!! 😀
14:40 "If this was Americans on this plane..." That reminds me of The Donner Party and how cannibalism was SO different for them lol
🤣
Also on this note, the food
probably wouldn’t have been as readily shared… “I packed these crackers. They’re for me and my family.”
Hola, primera vez que veo su canal. Un comentario, SI hay una versión americana de la historia. Se llama Alive, de los 90s, y actúa Ethan Hawke. Es una buena película, pero esta es muchísimo mejor, más completa y más cercana a lo que pasó
Hola, gracias por la información!
would you guys consider reacting to "I Origins" ? no one reacts to it but its such an interesting movie !!
We will definitely look into it, thanks!
Befor the Avalanche numa rubbed Coco foot then coco died in the Avalanche did they eat coco after he died???. All coco wanted was to see his mother again. ( well coco mom get to see him again in heven! If she passed away!.)
Congrats for your review......!!! You really research about it! And that is appreciated!! Thanks!
We appreciate it thank you!
Piece of Art. Uruguay nomaa
I know that y’all speak Spanish, but many of your followers do not, and you don’t have English subtitles on. Unfortunately, auto-generated subtitles only catch your speech, and not the move. I was able to follow along because I have seen the movie like 6 times already, but it made your video very difficult to follow for an American audience.
Apologies it was difficult for us to find a version of the movies we could use with subtitles. Thanks for watching!
enserio no pusieron muchas escenas buenisimas en esta reaccion... 0 ganas de subir un buen video
Ese era nuestro editor, lo siento. El vídeo completo está disponible en Patreon.
You guys skipped Numa's death!!
Sorry, that was our editor, not us. Available in full version on Patreon though 🙌
14:37 This is an intense scene, stop talking and react with your face to what is happening
nice job guys, thats a great reacction, resumen view, this is a good example for the other react´s channel´s
Thank you!!
buena reaccion..j.BAYONA amazing director
Gracias!
Great reaction! Thanks for pointing it out how strong religions are in South America, catholic religion to be more specific. Some reactors don't understand why some survivors didn't eat at first, but they don't know how it works here. Like y'all said, if it were americans, things would be different, they would propably fight more, eat it in the first hours lol, but the sense of comunnity and brotherhood is another strong thing in South America.
I'm glad you liked it! Fully agree. Thank you
Gooddam Americans! Jajja
😂😂
Damn yall really skipped numas death
It was our editor, full version available on Patreon though 🙌
They lost some of the best parts by chatting too much over it
some of it was the editing, but as this was only our second reaction, we are working on improving future reactions 🤗
¿Por qué no ponéis el doblaje en español para vuestros comentarios y no sólo para la película? Doblar al español una película hablada en español no tiene sentido ñ.
