Love that story. Thanks for posting it.
I first read about it in a book (Here). It was about survival, who lives, and who dies. Fascinating stuff.
In this case, why did this young girl make it out after ten days in the same jungle that killed everybody else? Yes her survival from the fall was miraculous but that is only where her story begins.
Why does it seem the person or people who survive these things are the last you would expect? The book hypothesizes it has more to do with mental and spiritual elements than anything else. As long as you keep your mind right, your chance of making it go up astronomically. Once that little voice creeps in there, it's all over.
