On Christmas Eve of 1971, LANSA Flight 508 flew into a line of thunderstorms over the Peruvian Amazon and came apart at twenty-one thousand feet. Ninety-two people were aboard. Juliane Koepcke, seventeen years old, fell from the sky still belted into her row of seats and woke the next day on the forest floor with a broken collarbone and one eye swollen shut. She walked for eleven days. What got her out was not luck — it was one piece of advice from her father, a zoologist, given casually years earlier: if you are ever lost, find running water and follow it. This episode also covers what the search found, what it found too late, and the fourteen people who survived the crash and were still alive on the ground when the looking stopped.
