Juliane Koepcke, a 17-year-old German-Peruvian woman, became famous for her remarkable survival story after the crash of LANSA Flight 508 in 1971. The flight was traveling from Lima, Peru to Pucallpa, Peru when it was struck by lightning and crashed into the Amazon rainforest. Koepcke was the only survivor of the crash and spent 10 days in the jungle before being rescued by local lumbermen. Despite suffering from serious injuries, she managed to survive the jungle's harsh conditions and eventually made a full recovery. Her story has been widely documented and serves as a testament to the power of human resilience and determination in the face of extreme adversity.
