On Christmas Eve 1971 Juliana Koepke, a seventeen year-old girl, left Lima by air with her mother. They were on their way to Pucallpa, another town in Peru, to spend Christmas with Juliana's father. Forty-five minutes later the plane broke up in a storm, and Juliana fell 3,000 metres, fastened in her seat. She was not killed when the seat hit the ground (perhaps because trees broke her fall), but she lay all night unconscious.

The next morning Juliana looked for pieces of the plane, and called for her mother. Nobody answered, and she found nothing except a small plastic bag of sweets.

Juliana's rib was broken, one knee was badly hurt and she had deep cuts on her arms and legs She had no shoes; her glasses were broken, so she could not see snakes or spiders; and she was wearing only a very short dress, which was badly torn. But she decided to try to get out of the jungle, because she knew that if she stayed there she would die.

So Juliana started to walk. She did not find anything to eat, and as the days went by she got weaker and weaker. She was also in bad trouble from insect bites. She heard helicopters, but could not see them above the trees, and of course they could not see her. One day she found three seats and saw that they had dead bodies in them, but she did not recognize the people.

After four days she came to a river. Juliana walked and swam down the river for another five days. At last she came to a hut. Nobody was there, but the next afternoon, four men arrived. They took her to a doctor in the next village.

Juliana learned afterwards that there were at least three other people who were not killed in the crash. But she was the only one who got out of the jungle. It took her ten days.
