Series: Memories, presented by Race Against Dementia
Guests: Sir Jackie Stewart, Nando Parrado
Producer: Jonathan Knight
In the 1990's went to meet Nando in Uruguay. I was with my best friend and her father. We found his place of business and asked to meet him. He was so very gracious and was so curious that we would fly all the way from USA specifically to meet him. He was very kind and I am happy to say I met him and shook his hand. *such a memory *
Wow! What did you tell him? What did you talk about? He is an absolute hero for me! It would be a dream to meet him! But i would be lost for words!
I have re-evaluated my own life after learning about this mind blowing accident and listening to these amazing people!
Wow
I would love to meet the man. I doubt I would ever be able to but if you asked me of one inspirational person alive who I would love to meet, it would be either Nando or Roberto.
@@MsPerfectOblivion Like you, I often refer to his words when I find myself in hard times. His advice of forgetting the past and living in the present really resonated with me because I've always been overly nostalgic and I often think it's not a good thing to be like that. It doesn't always serve me well so I try to live by his advice
His life is a testament to the durability of the human spirit. He suffered a skull fracture in the crash. His mother and sister died alongside him. He survived the avalanche. He scaled a 4000m mountain with no climbing equipment in subzero cold after having eaten only raw meat for two months. When he got to the summit he saw that he was nowhere near civilization, but still in the middle of the Andes. He even had enough strength left to throw that rock back across the river to the arriero 😊. He endured a long list of obstacles that would have broken lesser men
Nando is one of my all time hero's. How you could be unconscious and presumed dead and then walk out of the mountains is truly unbelievable. One bloke I would love to meet.
One of my Biggest Heroes. Nando Parrado Sir.
Yep, he's right up there with Jim Lovell and Neil Armstrong in my book.
@@You.Tube.Sucks. my biggest heroes which personally inspired me a lot are Nando Parrado , Sandeep Maheshwari and Ratan Tata.
@@You.Tube.Sucks. He's passed Lovell and Armstrong. They had NASA comforts, but Nando and the others didn't. Respectfully I say. Everyone has their heroes.
Parrado and team had problems at every turn. What a testament to having grace, faith, love, and tenacity. Their lives had great purpose to survive something like that.
in all the interviews i watch with Nando he always dislikes being called a hero or that the was a courageous brave young man and i can understand it but i wish he could understand that he was! Not only did he survive the initial crash but what sounds like a serious brain injury, being left out in the elements with the dead for days, going through the heartache of his mother and sister dying, the avalanche, the starvation and dehydration and hypothermia, the suicidal walk without any equipment over mountain ranges to save not only himself but all his other friends and countless other hardships they would've gone through that is a courageous brave young hero if there ever was one!
Just the type of person he is. In his book, he often offered explanations or apologies for some of the things he went through with the others. For example how he cursed Roy Hayley during the blizzard. As he rightly pointed out, Roy wasn’t treated very well in the 1993 movie Alive but he was the only one quick enough to stand up when the avalanche hit. Thus he was able to dig some people out who helped with the others as much as they could. If not for Roy, they could have easily all died that night.
I am totally lost in this. I'm watching several of these videos. watched the movie years ago. Then watched it again on TV. I'm alive after losing my husband to old age. I will keep trying. I will be grateful for what I have.
Bless you
I heard of this story from my uncle in 1972 in my home country of Imperial Kingdom of Iran. I was eleven years old at the time and I was horrified. It really makes me question if we are truly alone and God has either left us to ourselves or just doesn’t care!
Nando i ''copy''' your humbelness, and I still remember the day when i was 10 years old, the radio news in Hungary, that an uruguayan rugby team crashed in the Andes, I do not know why, but I was devastated, and since than, I was always following your team story. all I want to say, THANK YOU
Yes, his *humility* is inspirational.
Every now and then i search Nando on the internet to see if there is any new content, so gald i found this. Im from melbourne Australia and was so happy when i heard he was in melbourne for the last F1 race here.
Same (the first sentence). Wish I were from Australia -- or at least could visit! Where would you suggest for a family vacation with young children?
i know it is pretty randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to watch newly released movies online ?

Nando Porrado is an inspirational character. Roberto too and all of those on that mountain. They really are amazing humans.
Nando...I love you💞💞💞Hello from 🇨🇦
Getting to see your idol in discussion with their idol is a rare moment. I'll watch any interview with Nando but this this one was an extra special interview. Thanks for posting.
What a beautiful interview!! I met Nando in 2012 in Adelaide at his talk. His talk was extremely inspiring! ❤️
Que linda amizade entre os dois!
Such an honest interview, real people one on one. My respect for Jackie has increased ten fold, my respect for Nando and Roberto has been there since the day they managed to climb out from oblivion. I wish we were able to do the same for all those suffering from dementia. I'm currently taking care of my godfather who lost his wife after 65 years of marriage, as he was starting to show the first signs of dementia. The godfather is supposed to take care of the godsons should something unexpected happen, rarely do we get to understand and experience that it is a two way street!
I love the kind of questions he’s asking
I watch Alive once in awhile..4 days later?!! Holy crap I didn't know he laid out there that long..I wonder if their all still alive..This story & in the 1800 where some men got stranded on a ship, as they sat there the captain decided with some men to get help. It took a couple of months, but the men were all on the ship that he left & all still alive...This was much more tense..At least I'm sure the men on the ship were able to get fish while Nando & the others had nothing...I'm so glad to hear this too.Love it
Only one of the survivors is dead, if that's what you're asking. He was in his late 30s at the time of the crash, so he was significantly older than Nando and the other very young adults.
Javier Methol has died, but he was significantly older. The rest are all still alive and well.
Thankyou Sir Jackie and Nando this wonderful conversation. This survival story is just amazing and Alive by Piers Paul Read will always have a place in my bookcase 🙏
Those are the survival people, one on the most savage F1of all times, but Nando it's a survival machine, a human being its no design to go under those extreme conditions, all my admiration to Nando and Mr Stewart. THANKS
Wow hes an amazing person i wish i could meet him
Nando and Roberto are carrying all their friends and love ones thru them
What a great interview. Thank you for sharing both of your stories and friendship ❤
Very proud of this heroes!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
What an amazing podcast! God bless you!
Amazing duo congratulacions for a grest intervieu
So cool!!!
Very good interview!!!congrat’s😘
The Lord was with you both as you traveled across the mountains !
Hero!!!
I'm confused I've seen so many interviews where he says his sister was alive when he came too. And he comforted her and she died in his arms a few hours later?
That was my understanding too, and there are other videos where Nando himself describes that she was alive but not aware.
In nandos own book, he states Susie, his sister, was alive. On the 8th day after the crash, Nando says his sister died in his arms but I’m thinking that later in his life he just prefers not to go into the details of Susie’s death in interviews . Maybe it’s too painful
@@brandrider21 Yes, that's what I was thinking. It is one of his most personal moments and I can understand not wanting to go into detail about that over and over again.
Hallo Brandrider , I think the same,to painfull Greetings
Next year 2022 will be 50 years since the plane accident. Will there be a reunion?
I wish and believe, that will be a 450p years Union. This surviving story has greatly inspired so many walking life. It's my best true Hero story.
50 year
They have reunions frequently You just don’t hear about them because they keep them private affairs . Nando said that they get together on a frequent basis
They get together every year in December, on the anniversary of the rescue. One of the survivors has since passed away, as did the arriero who participated in the reunions (he came upon Parrado and Canessa, on horseback, in the remote valley near Los Maitenes and went to summon help)
@@brandrider21 wish the reunion was in CA. 👍
Wait. His sister didn’t die on impact. He claimed in many interviews she died in his arms days later.
Yes. I think he didn't want to talk much about it everyone saying she died days later
She died due to internal injuries 8 days after the crash
Primal instinct kicked in and you survived we have a little bit a animal instinct so it's ok. Animals and bugs eat the dead also there was no bugs or animals around so you all became primal instinct.
