just like what happen in last month in Mexico
The quake coincidentally occurred on the 32nd anniversary of the 1985 Mexico City earthquake, which killed around 10,000 people. The 1985 quake was commemorated, and a national earthquake drill was held, at 11 a.m. local time, just two hours before the 2017 earthquake.[8][9] Twelve days earlier, the even larger 2017 Chiapas earthquake struck 650 km (400 mi) away, off the coast of the state of Chiapas.[10]

There's a book on the plane crash written by some of the survivors. It's called "Alive". Very touching. Gave me goose pimples

i have both the movie and the book. it's titled, 'miracle in the andes'. nando parado the author of the book was on the flight with his younger sister and mum (the both died). he and the other survivors were forced to endure the harsh winter cold in the fuselage of the wreckage and feed on the iced flesh of their dead friends in order to stay alive! he is still alive today.

They need to appease the dead who seem not to be resting after the 1972 mishap.

You need to read the book, ma'am.
If you were shocked by that statement, the book that narrated the ordeal they went through will certainly bring you to tears.

I read the book when I was in high school, way back in the 90s. I'm sure you can get a soft copy online, as I did too.

The title of the book is, Alive: The Story of the Andes Survivors

cry cry Oh wow. I never heard of the book. Thanks for this!
I just checked online, I have ordered it from a library. I should get it by early next week. I doubt I will be able to finish reading it though. I'm always afraid of reading/watching real-life stories. embarassed I can remember how long it took me to watch Titanic, world war movies and some other real-life stories. I'll try to watch the movies "Alive"/"I am Alive" before the book arrives.
I can't imagine how heartbreaking it must be!
Thanks once again!
