They missed, they were missing quite a bit of luggage.

They missed, they were missing quite a bit of luggage.

They also spent the days consuming large amounts of fat and meat to try to like build up strength. They took short trips into the surrounding mountains, like trying to see how they could build up their strength. And on one of those trips, they found the wreckage of the tail, the plane's tail, and all of the fucking luggage.

Well, that's good. They found the luggage. To them, this was like a fucking goldmine. The ultimate sign to keep going. They got dry clothes, chocolate candies, a ski kit with poles they could use for the fucking hike. Wow. Tell me they weren't meant to find that shit.

all the shit they needed not all the shit but like most of the shit they needed came to them and it's like you know there were times of deep despair of course and deep hopelessness here i can't the likes of which probably most of us can never even understand or fathom or conjure in our minds no but i think that like what was important here was that they didn't let it consume them yeah they just said we're getting out of here we're gonna figure out how to get out of here

Like for them to do these little trips to try to gain the strength and to prepare, they weren't just like, let's give it our best shot. They were like, oh, no, fuckers. We're getting the fuck out of here. We're going to make sure we are prepared and out of here.

It's wild. They also, in the luggage, they found a bottle of rum. You need it at that point. Many cartons of cigarettes. Nice. Bottles of Coca-Cola. Oh, holy shit. A crisp Coke after two avalanches. Oh, my God. I can't imagine how good those Cokes tasted. Oh, my God. But also, you have to go so slow. Yeah, you can't just... Your body's not used to it. Yeah, oh, my God.

They also found a crate of moldy sandwiches, which at that point, eat away. Let's go. That night, they camped at the site eating a pretty large meal. They had a feast. And finishing it off with a dessert, they called it, which was a paste made of sugar, toothpaste, and rum. Oh, God. That's so bleak. They're hungry. But this time, unfortunately, was not one just of hope and just of good things.

There was more tragedy to come. Two weeks after the avalanche, one of the survivors, Arturo Noguera, had become sick and started getting weaker as the days passed. He became delirious and eventually fell into a coma and died on November 15th. Imagine, like, he got so far.

Noguera's death was followed a few days later by Rafael Ecaverin, who died from an infection in his leg.

A few weeks after Ekaverin passed, Numa Turkati died in his sleep from sepsis. So it was like really one after the other. And to get that barn to survive the crash, survive two avalanches, and then have that be the case, like... That's awful. Now, by the time that Turkati had passed, the group had been stranded in the Andes for 61 days. 61 days.
