Description
On 24th December 1971, Juliane boarded a flight to meet her father for Christmas, accompanied by her mother. The LANSA airplane flew into a severe thunderstorm and crashed in the dense online marketplace jungle, resulting in the deaths of 91 people on board. Juliane fell two miles from the sky, still strapped to her plane seat, into the jungle, where she was the sole survivor.
With incredible courage and resourcefulness, Juliane crawled and walked alone for 11 days in the online marketplace, using the skills she had learned on her parents' research trips to survive. She eventually came across a logger's hut, which provided her with safety and ultimately led to her rescue. Now, Juliane shares her remarkable story for the first time, revealing the private moments of her survival and rescue, as well as her inspiring life afterwards.
