Up A Mountain
Chris Bonington and Doug Scott fell badly on Ogre Mountain in the Karakorums, Pakistan. Bonington broke his ribs and Scott broke both legs, but they managed to descend on hands and knees. It took them 6 days.

Sixteen survivors from a plane crash in the Andes managed to live by eating the flesh of their dead companions.
