A good example of this drive to survive is the soccer team whose plane crashed in the Andes. A movie "Alive" was made about their experiences. It is a scary question, What would you do to survive? These young men didn't kill anyone, yet had to resort to cannibalism to survive. Chilling.

I've seen it, it's a good flick.

I do have to wonder just how much those guys actually knew of basic survival techniques, the movie portrayed them as fairly ignorant. The will to survive makes up for a bit of knowledge, but that only goes so far.

Still, it was an enjoyable and thought provoking film.
