![THE TWISTS! | FALLOUT [1x8] (REACTION)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/NA7T6gzbrlU/mqdefault.jpg)
The person who is announcing the names of the survivors is Carlitos Paez,one of the actual survivors who is now portraying his own father. Nando Parrado also has a cameo at the beginning,he can be seen holding the door open in the airport. Roberto Canessa has a cameo as well as the doctor standing directly behind the actor portraying him. This shows how involved many of the actual survivors were in the making of this beautiful film.
I add something, Nando is holding the door to his fictional family (his mother and sister died in the accident)
Daniel Fernandez Strauch also appears at the beginning of the movie, during the church scene
There are more cameos. Daniel Fernandez Strauch ( one of the Strauch cousins) appears at the church when Gaston tries to get Numa to get on the trip.
Coche Inciarte appears at the bar reading a newspaper when Numa is having a conversation with his friends
Moncho Sabella appears at the airport near Javier and Liliana's family
@@florencia4575😢
Also the real Antonio Vizintin is seen in the airport. Another nice detail is that Numa's house in the film was his actual home, and the guy passing by was Numa's real neighbor
The abundance of cigarettes in the movie is due to Javier Methol's family tobacco company. also the survivors said that did try to lit fire, but it wont last long due to the extreme weather there
Encendían fuego de vez en cuando, pero apenas tenían nada que quemar, porque lo necesitaban todo.
@@AguedaGSí, quemaban billetes. Pero no podían hacer una fogata, no tenían con qué.
@@efmar138 además de que casi todo estaba empapado.
It's true! They also took so many because in the early 70s there was a shortage of cigarettes in Chile, so they took them from Uruguay.
@@vjo6158 Exacto!! Además iba en el avión un empresario que tenía que ver con la fábrica de cigarrillos y llevaba muchos "cartones" (1 cartón=20 cajas de 20 cigarrillos), por lo que tú dices, en Chile había escasez de cigarrillos y supongo que el precio sería alto, por la alta demanda
"Carlitos Miguel Paez, my son" The guy who says the names at the end is Carlitos himself.
hace poco leí que Carlos Paez padre, al recibir la lista de los sobrevivientes, iba tapando todos los nombres con una regla y los destapaba a medida que los leía, para no enterarse si su hijo estaba vivo antes que cualquier otro padre.
@@katyespinoza1453 voy a llorar, wey
@@katyespinoza1453sí lo que pasa es que él sí se enteró de que Nando y Roberto salieron cuando su hijo estaba vivo, fue el único que se enteró de la lista tentativa, incluso le mandó una carta con los rescatistas, pero leyendo la lista fue que se enteró que su hijo seguía vivo, podría haber pasado cualquier cosa en esos 10 días
Nando's recovery in itself is a miracle. They thought he was going to die quickly, so they put him near the entrance to the fuselage where it was coldest. In doing so, it actually allowed his body to slow down and recover through his injuries.
Crazy how ice can kill you and save your life at the same time
We are resilient creatures aren't we?
Then he walked 10 days non-stop and with Roberto’s help saved his brothers, humans and our will power
He was extremely lucky that he fell and his head rested on ice for exactly the right time not more and that Diego Storm was paying attention to him and took him with the rest of them so he wouldn't freeze to death like Panchito and Susana
Gustavo Zerbino didn't want to board without the suitcase because he was carrying something from each of the deceased to bring It to their families since they wouldnt be able to recover the bodies.
All of their stories are devastatingly sad but Nando's gets me the most... He lost his mom and his sister but he stayed strong for his dad, he trained every day, he went on that crazy journey with roberto, he even told his friends they could eat his mom and sister to survive (they didn't do it), he did all of this to survive... But when he got home he realized he was alone, his dad had found another woman and had moved on, he gave most of Nando's stuff to his cousin, he sold Nando's bike, basically everything that belonged to him was gone. He started living alone cause his dad had a new family, he couldn't keep studying, he had to work, to learn how to live alone... He said that during the holidays was the hardest. On his second christmas (a year after the accident) he was so alone that he had to wait until after midnight to go to Roberto's house :(
Fortunately now he has a beautiful family, but it's just crazy to me that he still had to go through all this after spending 2 months in hell!
Damn his father was able to move on after just 3 months??
I wanna know if they could of been others and they didnt tell anyone
@@xCapeTheDrama Nando's father was very pragmatic and just wanted to move on, it hurt too much otherwise. That said, he went back to the Andes nearly every year to visit the graves of his wife and daughter and when he died he chose to be buried with them there. He was never fully over it it seems, no matter ow much he tried.
The ten minutes were after they reached Curicó, but the pilot never reached it. He made a mistake…
@@xCapeTheDramate recomiendo leer su libro, para mí es uno de mis favoritos, su historia te llena de esperanzas
11:54 she kept telling them to light a fire with the lighter but with the low temperatures it was impossible to do so, and everything was literally wet except the cigarettes because they were in a suitcase.
@@Celest-xm4ibExactly
Yeah a lot of people who haven't experienced -15 or lower have no idea how hard it is to not only start a fire but to keep it going. The wind alone will feel like it's eating your face ...
not to mention if you have hypothermia sudden heat could be dangerous as it can cause heart arrhythmias
Nando Parrado basically came back from the dead. The others thought him dead so they put him on the snow where his brain could heal (he had a skull fracture, that's why his eyes were like that), he fed, trained and walked for 10 days through valleys and mountains to save his friends. A true hero.
Crazy how ice can kill you and save your life at the same time. Save your life to later be able to walk across the Andes and save the rest of your friends lifes. This story is so amazing....
But Nando didn't do it alone. Roberto had lost half his body weight, plus he was a med student who helped the sick and the dying along with Gustavo. Roberto AND Nando are the heroes of this story together.
@@diannebdeeRoberto lost 40 lbs. Nando lost 60lbs.
No hizo nada más excepcional que Roberto que además de ir a las expediciones anteriores curó a los heridos y lo acompaño en la caminata de 10 días No hay un héroe todos fueron necesarios sin el alimento hubiesen muerto a los 15 días y ahora no estarían para contarlo Además Nando era Miope y sin Roberto no hubiese podido caminar un Km
They recorded 50 hours worth of footage of the survivors retelling the story, to make it as accurate as possible. They had a big part in this movie and even made a few cameos in here! The actors got to spend a lot of time with the survivors they were playing as, and they're still very close today. It's like they gained a son each haha
If I'm not wrong they had so many cigarettes because of the business Javier Methol worked for, he was on a plane because they were planning to hopefully expand to Chile, Liliana came with him because it was their wedding anniversary.
The monologue about her death that had you guys tearing up is the way Javier described what happened in the avalanche on the book about the tragedy.
He also said that after she passed away he spend his days talking to her body as it laid in the snow until one day he couldn't see her anymore, at first he thought she was fully covered by the snow but then he started to believe that they had to eat her too. Years later he told the boys that he didn't hold any resentment towards them for having to do that so they shouldn't worry, however they told him that she alongside Nando's sister and mother were never touched, they just felt like they had to move her away from him to somewhere he couldn't see her because they were afraid he would go insane, he was grateful that even in the situation they were in they still found a way to show him kindness.
He later on got remarried and had more kids, sadly he passed away a few years ago, however he said in interviews that he didn't leave his wife in the mountain, that he fulfilled his mission and that she was always with him.
wow i cried a lot reading this, strong and sweet man🥺
His cousin was part of the rugby team, that’s how they got in the plane, Pancho sadly passed away the first day if I’m not mistaken
@@sophiagallegosyarrow6417 yes, Javier worked on the tabacco company from Pancho's family, he was the one that invited him on the trip because the tickets were cheap.
You're right also right about what happened to him, Pancho Abal survived the crash however he was barely conscious afterwards and the only thing he could make out was that he was freezing, he was placed with Susana, Nando's sister, since they were really badly injured, when they woke up on the second day he was gone, he passed away at 21 years old from his injuries.
@@fantasia13 yep they were both Abal, Pancho Abal and Javier Methol Abal
Yes, Liliana along with Fernando's mother and sister were the three female victims whose bodies were untouched out of respect. I think five of the six victims from the tail were not eaten because they couldn't reach them although they were able to retrieve Carlos Valeta's body. They couldn't fully reach the pilot due to how he was positioned in the cockpit. They also left Arturo, Vasco and Numa's bodies untouched because they were concerned about them being contaminated from their infections. Actually later Daniel Fernandez told Vasco's father that his body was intact and Vasco's father was able to retrieve his son's body and bring it home to bury him.
The pauses during the photo clicks are because they’re the exact exact same as real photos so that guy standing in middle was because of that
Its kinda funny that people are like "why they didnt light a fire or something?" LIKE- HSHDHSH like that wasnt the first thought they would have up there in the cold 😭
Thanks for the reaction! ❤
So many "genius" out there, obviously the survivors thought everything, they weren´t expecting that 50 years more reaction youtubers find out the solutions
With how they show how ingenious the survivors are I don’t get how people wouldn’t think they didn’t try it
There are so many "geniuses" outside. I have no words. :/
They were afraid of burning up the place bc the plane fuel was everywhere. Also, they had very little to burn, they were traveling to a warm area, so hardly any layers. They would freeze if they burned clothing for temporary relief.
actually when they interviewed nando and roberto when the reporters arrived at that moment, they asked how they handled the food issue and they were like ''WE ARE NOT GOING TO ANSWER THAT RIGHT NOW'' They explained all that later in a press conference!
When Numa says 30 degrees is in celsius, 86 F, just so you can imagine how hard the temperature dropped down.
That plane crash scene is probably the most horrifying and realistic plane crash I've ever seen depicted in a film.
Siiii...muy realista e impactante..
The reason for Numa Turcatti's protagonism and narration in the movie is very moving. Bayona, the director of the movie, wanted to approach this retelling by honoring not only the survivors, but especially the ones who didn't make it back, giving them all recognition.
Numa, an outsider to the rest of the group, had no relation and didn't even know the rest of the guys who played in the rugby team. He took initiative along with the rest of the guys who came had little to no injuries, taking care of the people who needed aid, blocking the inside of the plane, and walking to find the other parts of the plane. Even though some did not want to consume the human meat, (everyone on the plane was a Catholic, which is why you can hear them praying on the plane, and some on the scene where they cut up the first body to eat) Numa included, they obviously had to eat something. But as you see in the movie, he was always hesitant to eat.
As told by the survivors, Numa was a generous, caring and simple man. His humility and bravery is remembered by the survivors to this day. His death was the one who motivated Fernando Parrado and Roberto Canessa to start walking towards Chile, because of difficulties with a leg infection and physical deterioration, he died at 25 years old, weighing only 25 kilograms. He survived for 61 days, rescue came on day 72. He was the last to die before rescue arrived.
That was so so sad... 😭😭😭
a little fact about the survivors, in their native country doesnt snow so that was the first time they see the snow. They had a lot or cigarrettes because one of the passengers worked in the family tobacco factory so he took a lot of cigarrettes to sell in Chile. Two of the survivor were medicine students. Also three of the real survivor have a cameo in the movie.
Aside from a little frost on some exceptionally cold mornings, the only ice we see in Uruguay is in our drinks
I am Uruguayan and this story is very well known in our country. I am very happy that a new adaptation has been made, after Alive! (1993) and that it has become so famous.
It is a tremendous story and those who did not manage to survive deserved to be heard.
People die when we forget them.
Alive was a travesty, as well as Survive from 1976. With Alive, you had Hollywood actors who refused to put in the dedication Agustin, Matias, Enzo, Kuku, and the rest did to tell this story as it should have been. Both those other films were so bad that a lot of the people and the families of the survivors refused to allow the real names to be used. Here, we have not only the real names but the families of the dead, embracing the actors playing their lost ones. That makes thos film far superior in my eyes.
I understand many of the questions that are raised, but despite being great, the movie doesn't show even half of what they went through there. So although it's valid for you to wonder why they didn't light a fire, since it's not shown in the movie, believe me, they did. Whatever you think of doing, they thought of it, and they did it. And as someone already said, the fire didn't last. Very high altitudes = less oxygen = less fire. Besides the cold, and the fact that they had practically nothing to burn.
Also, if you're interested, Nando Parrado (the MAN himself) has a book about the incident, where he tells everything that happened in detail. It's devastating, inspiring and incredible. I highly recommend it.
Most of them have written books. I read Parrado’s and it is indeed, pretty amazing.
@@minyrar7107 yess, all of them are great, i just really like nando's
Yes I even read that they burned all the cash they had on them which apparently amounted to around $6000 and it burned for barely a few minutes before going out.
I would also recommend the book Society of the snow by Pablo Vierci which Bayona read as he was studying different tragedies for The Imposible. He was so captivated by it that he wrote to the author wishing he could direct a movie of the accident based on his work (and here we are!). It's a wonderfully well-written book and you get the recount of the full experience from all the survivors' perspectives. There are many explanations from stuff that didn't make it into the movie as well.
Es el peor libro muy egocéntrico como siempre
38:36 the scene where Roberto smells the meat is meant to convey the change in the climate.
Leaving the mountains had the advantage of less cold but less cold had the disadvantage on the preservation of the meat
20:32 The loose teeth were due to scurvy, a disease caused by severe deficiency of vitamin C in the diet. Vitamin C is essential for the synthesis of collagen, an important protein in the structuring of connective tissues, including the tissues of the gums and teeth.
When a person suffers from scurvy, collagen production is impaired due to a lack of vitamin C. This leads to fragility of the connective tissues, including the gums, which support the teeth. As a result, gums can become inflamed, swollen and bleed easily. Additionally, a lack of collagen can cause the fibers that hold teeth in place to weaken, causing teeth to become mobile or loose. And that was why sometimes those with the best teeth chewed food for others to eat.
I think the loose teeth was directly related to the fact that they were forced to sleep outside with no production under temperatures below zero. It happened to the three of them that did that expedition. Teeth went back to normal a few days after they returned. Same was as Zervino recovered his sight a few days after.
They had a lot of cigarettes because Javier Methol and Pancho Abal worked at a tabaco fabric. In chile cigarettes where really hard to find so they took a lot soy they could sell them
VALEDAVIES17 it was their family's factory, founded by their grandfather. Javier Methol worked there but not sure about Panchito Abal, who probably was in college
@@juliosalazar6924 I read somewhere that they were cousins
@@timalyo5776 Pancho Abal y Javier Methol Abal eran primos, de la familia dueña de la compañía de tabaco. Más que trabajar en la compañía, eran los dueños.
The film is a cinematic masterpiece, not only because of the aesthetics, art, photography, make-up or script, but because they managed to tell the story as real and truthful as possible, to the point that the survivors actively participated in it and say that when they see it they relive in their minds everything that happened. It is wonderful the way in which Bayona manages to show the harshness of what happened with an artistic touch and a strong emotional charge and for the first time not only highlighting the figure of the survivors as heroes but also those who died and did not make it out of the mountain, which is why Numa's voice as narrator is so important. Each of the actors met the real person they were playing and most of them managed to create a bond with them, moving from interpretation to reality and giving the importance it deserves to what each survivor felt, because as they have already said, each one remembers the mountain in a unique way.
Some fun facts:
-The man that holds the door open at the airport is Fernando Parrado, one of the survivors that went down the mountain.
-The person reading the names of the survivors at the end is Carlitos Páez another survivor, portraying his father Carlos Páez Vilaró, who continued the search for them after the official search was called off.
-One of the doctors at the end is also a survivor, Roberto Canessa the other guy that went down the mountain.
Daniel Fernández Strauch aparece en la iglesia, y el señor que saluda a Numa antes de entrar a su casa, es el hermano del Numa real, saludos! 🇺🇾

@@futbolero1960 no es el hermano, es el sobrino.
@@minyrar7107 Tenés razón, me equivoqué, saludos!
I love how the Strauch cousins were always like a pack of wolves
I had a little game for myself when I watched the movie the second time, whenever they showed Fito, Eduardo or Daniel, I was looking to see which of the other two were also in the shot lol. When Fito gets on the helicopter at the end, Daniel is in the seat next to him, and I think the three cousins sit together in the final shot as well.
13:24 - it's obviously a gross moment, but I loved that they included it, especially the part where Nando watches and sighs. He talks about that in his book, that it was the moment he first looked at human flesh and saw food. There are so many little details in this movie that you can appreciate if you're familiar (to put it lightly - obsessed is probably more accurate in my case) with the story!
26:23 I would be Hella mad if I woke up in a survival situation like this movie and someone is burning my clothes to get warm in a place that's colder than a freezer.. 🤣 fire doesn't last forever Bridget 😅
Her constant commentary on the fire drove me insane!! If you’re that curious, pause the movie and Google i
Roberto said that he didn't see what Nando saw at the top of the mountain edge. He decided to follow his friend, even if it meant the end for him 😭
I'm from Uruguay. We don't have mountains that high or that cold. We are a beach and countryside type of country. We don't have snow here either.
It was their first time at that altitude and temperatures and with spring clothing as October here is spring
36:15 idk if you guys thought the meat they had was Numa's, but if you did, it wasn't. They wouldn't even be able to because Numa was infected
Some of them ended up staying 72 days, because the rescue was done in 2 days. If u ever travel to Uruguay, they have a Museum about the tragedy.
41:14 that's real footage of them getting rescued. Those are the real survivos!
The footage you are referring to is a recreation. According to the the director Bayona when the recreation was being filmed some of the survivors happened to enter where the feed from the helicopter cameras was being received. They looked at the monitors and asked why the film makers were reviewing the old footage from 1972. They were in fact watching the scene as it was being filmed for the new film. The film makers were using the same type of camera and black and white film that had been used in 1972 in order to create an accurate re-creation.
When asked why they didn't make a bonfire, the answer was simple, there are very few resources and anything you burn is gone forever, in the end they even ate the stuffing out of the seats
I cried my eyes out watching this. Such an amazing and inspiring story. They faced unacceptable conditions and they made it out. They were heroic and I have nothing but respect and admiration for them! Excellent movie!
You said about the sound design making you feel like you're right there. JA Bayona, the director, actually filmed footage up in the Valley of Tears were the crash happened. The winds you hear are the actual ones up in that valley. So you are essentially there with them.
actually the movie is pretty accurate, not only the survivors were interviewed by the director, but the book the movie is based on(same name as the movie) was written by a journalist and schoolmate of some of the survivors so he had not only access but he was close to them, in the book he takes the time to talk about all the people involved, not just the survivors. Another detail, the whole accident was because the copilot made a mistake calculating the position, they were flying blind, by instruments and time of flight, he didnt took in to account the front wind against the plain so based on how much time they had flying over the pass he though they already had passed it so the pilot turned the plain to the north as it was supouse to, but sadly they were still inside the pass and turned the plain to the mountains,they actually needed 6 more min of flight to clear the pass.
Fun fact part of filming was shot at the actual crash site. That’s why the mountains look so real. (Because they are) The director also took this film before he released it and flew to the real life victims and showed them all a private screening of the movie and the survivors gave a standing ovation. Last one is one of the actors in the film was a real life survivor.
yes and no, yes the director fillmed several shots of the real place, but the movie was filmed in spain, in the snow in the mountains of the Sierra Nevada, but combined those shots with the shots of the valley were the real thing happened
there were actually a lot of the real life survivors who were there and had cameos, along with some of the deceased’s relatives.
@@hellbunniez3Yes, three scenes that I can remember had the survivors interact with the characters they play. The real Nando Parrado opens the door at the airport that the actors playing Nando, Susy and their mother enter. At the end, the real Roberto Canessa plays a doctor guiding the actor playing Roberto through the hospital, and of course the real Carlos Paez is reading the names of the survivors.
Watched this a few days ago and have been obsessed with learning more about it since, ordered a couple of the books the survivors wrote. They actually filmed a lot of this movie in the exact spot that the real crash happened!
Same here!! Recently learned they actually couldn’t film that much in the actual spot because the cameras FROZE and they couldn’t film!! Insane!
Miracle In The Andes by Nando Parrado is my favourite book. You will never need motivation again.
@@user-bc3js3sd6vit’s so poetic at times. I love the parts where he talks about the immortality of the mountains, how the Andes would continue on long after their deaths. Just a great meditation on nature beauty and it’s horrors
@@blueyeshadow2738 although I"m not into rugby he describes it in a beautiful way too. Specially the maul formation, where your whole team has to push with all the strength you can possibly muster in order to move one inch forward. There was a lot of that in The Andes.
I’ve always had so much respect for these survivors. The easier choice in their circumstance would have been to fall asleep and die.
oh yes! They are heroes...I cant believe that some of the people judged them for their way of survivar...its easy to say that "oh I would never eat another human" while you are sitting in your warm,comfy home and have fridge full of food ,I think that 99% of us would do the same in such a horrible situation, the will these guys had to survive is just incredible , I would have probably given up immediately and let the nature take me
The people who ask why they didn't light a fire to keep warm, didn't they understand the geography of the place where they fell asleep? There were no trees, only rocks and snow, the little there was to burn wasn't even enough for a day, I think not even an hour of fire. In the book it says that they only lit a bonfire once and it didn't last long, it was only to cook some meat, but Canessa told them that it was better to eat it without cooking since the meat lost nutrients when cooking it.
Everything is wet to lit a fire... and they 4000 mts above sea level it didnt burn to much.
And they have so many cigarrettes because Javier methol workd at a tabacco company and was taking cigarrettes to chile to sell
Javier Methol Abal y su primo Abal eran dueños de la tabacalera. La familia Abal sigue siendo dueña de Montepaz
the sound in this movie, especially before and during the crash, is absolutely insane and the oscars are showing their incompetence by not nominating them in that category
also i feel like the editing leaves a lot of people to believe the meat they were putting in those bags was numa but they didn't eat numa or the other two who died before him. they all died of infections and the guys were worried about getting sick if they were to eat them so they didn't. also numa was down to 55 pounds when he died so there wasn't a lot of meat to give anyways. they also didn't eat any of the women or family members of those who survived.
i love watching reactions to this movie bc every single person has such an emotional reaction to them seeing that guy on horseback. like just instant tears every single time and then it makes me cry again lmao
Carlos dad never gave up on them. He insisted on the rescue that’s why he was able to read names. He also wrote a book
They actually never once ran out or got low on cigarettes because one of the survivors stock piled cigarettes for the trip. His parents owned a tobacco farm, and Chile was in a tobacco shortage.
Pancho Abal y Javier Methol Abal
7:25 what I heard and found out is that the pilots believed they were arriving in Curicó or at least close to Chile but, due to the weather, they were still flying over Argentina
Generally right; a bit more complex (and tragic),if you want to think about it: the general explanation of how they were crossing the Andes is explained... the way the crash happen not so much (it's understandable, their story doesn't involve the crash investigation).
Due to radar limitations, the plane had to account for their speed, heading, wind and the signal of two radio stations to find its way to Curicó, the point where they should have turned north. The problem was that the flight across the mountains (while it had head winds) should take at least 11 minutes and the pilots declared they were flying over Curicó and turning north after just three.
The plane was already over Chilean territory, but it flew back into Argentina (not drastically, it just flew north and crossed the border again) after making the turn in the wrong place. That's also why the search party didn't see them: when we see the crash the plane had been flying in the wrong direction, away from their expected path.
To this day, it's a mistery how the crew messed up so badly that part of the flight.
The husbands monologue about his wife’s death in the avalanche was something the actual survivor said in an interview from about a decade ago. I’m glad they included it in the film.
Numa is so heartbreaking to me, because he made it so long and died eleven days before rescue came. I found out he had a twin brother, too, and can't imagine how difficult it was to see him after they were rescued--the face of their friend who didn't make it.
Thank you from Uruguay. We always tell them "thank you very much for coming back"❤🇺🇾❤️
OMG thank you so much for reacting to this!! I grew up knowing this story (like many others in south america) and is so amazing it got to you!
They did make some fires, look up the survivors interviews. They had nothing to burn, they burned maps and money, clothes is bad idea, they need those to wear and be warm. When they did a fire it would only last around 3 minutes and it was mostly to cook some of the meat, since some could eat it because it was raw, one of the survivors says "for some it was not the issue that it was human, but it was raw, they couldn't hold it on their stomach"
Netflix did an accompanying documentary on how they made the film and the commitment by the actors and crew with the conditions where they shot. I watched the movie last night and the documentary today.
Lots of exceptional films this year, but this is the one I keep thinking about. Powerful storytelling
Regarding eating human flesh, the real rescue occurred in 2 days, they took half of them, while a few rescuers stayed with the rest until the next day when they came to pick them up, it was there where the rescuers knew what they had ate , the information ended up leaking, in addition to the suspicions that they were in better physical condition than expected. They had to talk to the press and explain how bad the situation was to reach that point (The press and people were thinking that they killed other passengers to eat them!), even the Pope told them that he had not committed any sin.
They lost around 12 kilos just the first night when their bodies had to fight the cold and keep them warm.
The Strauch brothers came from cattle breeding family, that had a very good idea on how to cut meat.
About the cigarettes one of the guy had the cigarettes business so he brought the suitcases of cigarettes
Dos de ellos: los primos Abal y Methol Abal
Montevideo, Uruguay flying to Santiago de Chile, Chile is a little more than 2 hours and 30 minutes. He just said "In 10 minutes (more, he meant) will be in Santiago"
It is close to the real-life story, or at least they tried to do it.
I think the director likes real-life dramas, like The Impossible with Tom Holland among others, when he was little, so cute.
Wow, I loved this movie so much that I've already watched it 5 times and on all those times I ended up crying, I can't imagine what the reactions of their families and the survivors would be like T - T
The Snow Society movie is really a work of art J.Bayona shined more than ever👏❤️
I loved your reaction :"3
they couldn’t start a fire at the time the temp was too low. more people need to know this. also some of the survivors said the movie was very accurate. when i heard about this for the first time it was from MrBallen watching his videos at night, it’s so sad, i cried especially at the end when they were getting all dressed up for the cameras when they knew they were about to be saved, just the feeling knowing that. i couldn’t imagine what they went through, and what they had to do to survive. i thought numa was gonna make it cause i thought he was like one of the main people, but it was sad when he died, it was sad when all the ones that died. seeing the plane crashed was so sad and fucked. seeing the real pictures with them is sad. it’s crazy how this story has been around all this time, and they’re just not making a movie about it. i did watch some of it in the english audit and then changed it back.
please react to Game of Thrones if you haven’t yet please! it’s such a good show, it’s on Max, Jon Snow is my favorite in the show. you’d like the show i promise you. it’s fucked some parts, but so good.
Javier Methol worked at a tobacco company so that's why there are so many cigarrettes. One of the best films of 2023
Numa’s house at the beginning is actually the real Numa’s house, they filmed the scene there with the permission of his family. Also, all the actors that played survivors got to meet them in person and discuss with them so they could portray them the best they could ❤
And also, the phrase he wrote in the paper before he died, was the reason for Roberto and Nando to do the walk the day after
The neighbour he greets is Numa's actual brother Daniel.
I LOVE how Gustavo would not go without his friends stuff... that was so selfless of him :(
I'm sure someone else has already mentioned this but how about the movie The Impossible next? It's about the Tsunami. Incredible film.
And also Bayona's! Fun fact, it's called like that bc of the book Society of the Snow, he read it during the production and right after that he got the rights to shoot it
I have seen it! Is it from a really true story? Or it's just inspired? I'm not very informed, sorry
@@FnadRockss both movies happened in real life
@@FnadRockssboth are true stories, verything is true in this one but i dont know if the impossible is inspired or truth
@@FnadRockss Hola la peli Lo Imposible de Bayona es un hecho real que le sucedió a una familia Española...la protagonista Naomi Watss estuvo nominada al Oscar como mejor actriz saludos desde Spain❤
Amazing film. Honeslty, it's a perfect movie. I wish it had been nominated for Best Film at the Oscars, because it absolutely deserves it. Hoping it at least wins best foreign film.
Thank you for reacting to the snow society, thanks to this film it also put Uruguay on the map a little bit, taking that out was an excellent film told by the survivors themselves. In fact, one who did not get on the plane, that same day or the day before the accident, died in a car crash while traveling in Uruguay. Greetings from Uruguay and thanks again
THANK YOU i have been enthralled by this movie since i saw it
Everything about this film is absolutely perfect and so faithful to reality that it moved me to tears due to such a faithful adaptation of the real events of what happened. The depth of the characters, the visuals, the chronology, the narration is beautiful! It definitely tears your soul.
PS: That the director has opted to make the narrative from the perspective of one of the protagonists (Numa) who also dies, transmits a saturation of tremendous emotions. Numar represents the nature of the human being for the gift of doing good, helping others, it is inevitable to feel empathy with him and pain when he dies. I think we all cry when they read that little piece of paper that he leaves with a biblical passage... Simply Beautiful!
Bayona es un director muy detallista y muy emotivo en cada una de las escenas que cuenta llega siempre al espectador...es una pelicula muy bien hecha , cuidada al detalle y sobre todo muy respetuosa saludos desde🤗🇪🇸
I understand that it is almost impossible to make a fire in those conditions, because of the altitude, the temperatures, the snow, everything is wet and humid - They may have tried, perhaps. Very good reaction. Greetings from Argentina!
In my opinion this movie deserve the Oscar for:"Best international movie". It was nominated for this category in the Oscar.
“Injury… workplace injury” 😂
I just watched this last night. Absolutely beautiful and heart wrenching film.
Cuando los pilotos de los helicópteros preguntaron a Nando dónde estaba el avión, les costó mucho creerle. Y no les culpo.
some of the real survivors appear in the movie!
Nando parrado is the man that opens the door to the actors playing him and his family
Canessa is one of the doctors in the end and he is behind Matias Recalt, the actor that played him
and the real Carlitos Paez plays his own dad reading the list of survivors.
The amount of insensibility in some reactions hahahaah how you achieve to convert a beautiful movie about a painful tragedy in a bounch of bad jokes? it´s a gift
omg fr i wanted to stopped watching the video cuz of the jokes
Desde que somos pequeños somos conscientes de la tragedia y gracias a este asombroso proyecto esta historia está llegando a más personas. Gracias por reaccionar y valorar la película y la tragedia real, saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾
Aqui en España también causo un verdadero impacto esta desgarradora historia que tuvieron que vivir en sú pais...orgullosa que un director haya contado lo que vivieron estos chicos de la forma tqn desgarradora pero a la vez tan emotiva y respetuosa...increibles interpretaciones de todos ellos..un fuerte abrazo 🤗🇪🇸
They have to fly over the mountains since the Andes goes from south in Chile/Argentina all the way to Colombia, that mountain range crosses the entire continent. Above that, if you look at a map you'll realize that Chile is a very unique contry in that it's very long and thin and the entire east border with Argentina is the Andes. Since Chile is so thin, even if you come from the north or south you will have to cross mountains in certain places.
Beautiful movie!! In my Top 3 of 2023! I've gone back and watched it again, and that last 20min I'm a wreck 😢
There isn't even snow there today but the days they filmed was the heaviest snowfall in decades.
40:53 The real survivor carlitos Páez
😂😂 Cody has never shoveled snow before. Your body temp sky rockets.
And you sweat a lot!
They live in Ohio, I think! No way he’s never shoveled snow lol
37:44 The survivors explained that scene. Nando asks Roberto if he sees the way out and Roberto answers that he does but he's looking at Nando, not the mountains bc he sees the way out in Nando, that he's not going to stop until getting out
The avalanches scene was much worse in real life as it was pitch black so they couldn't see anything. It's always harder to search anything in the dark and every second counted as those buried where running out of air. Also by not seeing anything they stepped over some to get others out making it harder for them to survive. I can't even begin to imagine how maddening that must have been
Some details that usually go unnoticed:
- They had never seen snow
-The highest mountain in Uruguay y is 516m. (for real)
-They didn't have time to aclimatize to the height an they were suffering from altitude sickness.
-They were at over 4000m.
At that heights and temperatures you need to eat at least 10.000 Kcal just to survive..
-They didn't have any mountain equipment, only had mocassins and rugby shoes
its the fact the they crashed on friday the 13th 1972
This movie deserves an Oscars! This is a cinematic masterpiece, not only because of the aesthetics, art, photography, make-up or script, but because the story is real and the depiction as truthful as possible....
And may I ask: why no focus on one of THE REAL HERO of the story - SERGIO CATALAN ? The man that found them was Sergio Catalan, a Chilean muleteer. (And this is Sergio Catalan's story). He was moving his animals through the mountain and happened to come across them. He said that at first he thought they were tourists. However, the more he looked at them he realized how poor their condition was. (But) because of the stream he couldn't hear them. So he had to go and get a piece of paper and a pen so the boys could communicate with him. Once he got their message he rode on his horse 10 hours to the closest police station. He said it took him what was left of the day and the whole night to get there and you were right in your reaction. When he arrived they didn't believe him. They thought he was drunk and making it up. However, since he refused to budge and he had the letter they decided to go ahead with the rescue... After they were rescued the survivors developed a really close relationship with him. Some of them said he was like a father to them. When he got sick and needed hip replacement surgery, the boys paid for his medical bills and Roberto helped him get treatment quickly since he was now a doctor. Sergio passed away in 2020 and Gustavo Zerbino attended his funeral in representation of the survivors. He carried his coffin and gave a speech to say goodbye to him. "
There should be a PART II of the Society of the Snow, with the story focusing on SERGIO CATALAN... People may disagree with me, but for me, Sergio Catalan is NOW a member of the Society of Snow - and ONE OF THE HEROES... So, I repeat, there should be a Part II...
The saddest part is knowing that in a straight path 22 kilometers away there was an abandoned hotel where they could have found shelter, equipment and warm clothing, not food tho. Many more of them would have survived, included Numa. But it was impossible for them to know.
!¿Nooo jodas enserio?! otro dato curioso que por fin veo que no es repetido y me dolió.
Chale si no les hubieran creído al copiloto que estaban en chile , osea Curicó, todo les hubiera sido más fácil.
(Si yo ya me enteré por otro comentario que si hubieran dado la vuelta en el sentido contrario hubieran llegado más cerca a Argentina que chile y los 10 u 12 días se les hubiera cortado a la mitad)
@@karencardozoquintero3769 Desgraciadamente así es. A 22 kilometros en linea recta, bajando el valle hacia el lado argentino se encuentra el Hotel Termas, un balneario y complejo de aguas termales abandonado. Si bien no había comida habría sido un excelente refugio, ya que había ropa de nieve, mantas y equipo que les habría servido para sus expediciones. Pero sobre todo habría sido un gran aparo para los heridos y para refugiarse del clima. Muchos más estarían hoy vivos si por algún milagro hubieran sabido donde se encontraban siniestrados.
Un dato anecdótico y triste.
It looks like you havent seen their interviews ... but there is a river there which would have been impossible for them to cross at that time of year and there was nothing in the hotel which was at the other side. They would have been stock there until who knows when without little food and the closest town was many kms away. The path they took ended up saving their lives
si bien cierto estaban super cerca de la civilización en argentina, no hubieran podido llegar al hotel por el causal de un río que está por ahi. irse a chile fue la decisión más oportuna que tomaron
The reason they didn't run out of cigarettes is cause almost everyone onboard was a borderline chain smoker who packed extra cigarettes for the trip. Funnily enough the survivors actually said that smoking kept their sanity intact and morale up since not only was it something to do, but it was one of the few normal things they could still do on the mountain.
In fact, it was because Javier Methol worked in a family tobacco factory and at that time there was a shortage of tobacco in Chile and he carried several suitcases of cigarettes to do business in Chile.
Wrong. It was Javier Methol and his cousin Pancho Abal who brought suitcases full of cigarrettes from their family's tobacco company
Amazing reaction guys. Thank you for sharing it.
A few facts:
Nando made quite a recovery because even when his head swelled with the impact, his head was facing the cold metal of the plain and it served as a very cold ice pack to heal the swelling and make him better.
They were peeing black because of severe dehydration.
Fito was the one who thought of making water, glasses to protect their eyes from the reflexion of the sun in the snow and also chose the bodies that would be eaten along with his cousins Daniel and Eduardo.
Carlitos was in charge of making sure there were not drafts in the plain or reduce the possibility of drafts using the suitcases and plane seats, he was very good at it. He also was the one who made the sleeping bag that Nando and Roberto used to sleep in during their walk to Chile. He was from a rich family very spoiled, he even had a nanny, after this trip his perspective of life absolutely changed.
They had so many cigarettes because in Chile cigarettes were scarce and Javier Methol, the man who lost his wife on the trip had actions in a Tabaco company so thought it was a good business to take a lot of cigarettes and sell them in Chile.
Numa did not injured like that in the real story, someone walked on his leg because the lack of space and because he was not eating his body did not have much strength to recover from the bruise. He was the last one who died and his death pushed Nando and Roberto to say Fuck it lets do this, let's save ourselves because no one else is going to.
The actual survivors loved this version more than the 1993 version, because it doesn't idolise the survivors as the heroes, instead recognises and considers those who died and their memory.
Reporters keep digging in a very nasty way how they survived, what did they eat, etc. The survivors were very secretive and ashamed about saying they ate human beings and were scared to be judged being Catholics by their families and friends also go jail. They had a press conference were they answer to reporters question ONCE instead that addressing the situation 100000 times to every reporter who asked.
The actual survivors made a Kameo in the movie, Daniel, Nando, Roberto and Coche Inciarte were is different scenes.
The reason why Zerbino would not leave without the suitcase it's because he hoped that tokens from the death people, like personal belongings such as jewelry, rosaries, ID's, letters written before dying were taking back to give to their families. That actually happened the real survivor refused to leave without the suitcase.
In the movie isn't shown but the rescue was in 2 stages. They have to rescue one lot that day and the next lot the day after, so some had to stay another night waiting for the other helicopters to arrive. Those left behind the first day were left with food and a team of rescuers. A survivor said the rescuers were scared of them after seeing all the human remaining all over the place.
I love this film, it is an honor to be Uruguayan, to have grown up with this wonderful story, to make known what we Uruguayans are, the strength we have, that we do not give anything for lost. Bayona did an amazing job, it's beautiful, the cast did amazing as well. They deserve everything for such an amazing job ❤
The film was shot in Spain, in the Sierra Nevada mountains, in Granada (Andalucía).
Saw Alive years ago which is same story but apparently this one is more dramatic with more story and truer facts
I loved your reaction and review at the end. I know this story since I was a kid, and watched the film many times. Watching your react and sharing that experience with us is heartwarming, heart touching. Thanks.
The plane flew a whole day through Argentina and then 10 minutes to cross 200 km of mountain range still Chile. The Andes is in Argentina.
Argentina and Chile. Santiago is right next to the Andes, so every airplane has to fly close to the mountains on takeoff and landing.
The 10 minutes was from curico to Santiago, the crossing of the Andes takes much longer, and it's split pretty much in half between Chile and Argentina
I couldn't stop crying when I saw it, what happened is sad but exciting at the same time. 😢❤
Omg i didn’t expected this wooo love that more people are reacting to this movie
People saw a body part in the pictures later and started to wonder and judge but they gave a press conference and said what needed to be said, they only survived bc they did it, clearly it wasn’t easy
Beautiful surprise!
Love from Argentina
Greetings from Argentina. Kisses and hugs.
In case you did not know, of the sixteen survivors, one does not participate in the film, but if I speak with its representative actor, so it is one of the least action in it. Two died, but one made a cameo just like the other fourteen. Those who did not participate or see the film, are Javier Methol, one of the survivors, who died in 2015 and the arriero Don Sergio Catalán in 2020, who is the one who sees them in the river. The other who died is José Luis Inciarte in 2023 and to which the film director showed him the film in private.
Gustavo Zerbino is that of the suitcase and years later he was called (by the relatives of the deceased) "The Guardian of the 29"
Btw...there's an American movie called ALIVE that's based on this story as well.
But this version is way more "real", I think.
Yes alive was good movie but this version is so much better.
It is, survivors said it was the closest depiction of what actually happened.
Also, they had never seen snow before, so they had no snow gear, and had to make snow shoes out of the air plane seat cushions
It is now known that it was a human error by the pilot. He strated turning the plane up north way too early. Way before they had actually crossed the range completely , hence they crashed into the mountain. And he wasn't unexperienced, apparently he had mad such a flight before 29 times. It was a calculation mistake due to poor visibility.
