16) Joe Simpson & Simon Yates; The Mountain Survival Story that Inspired the Book, Touching the Void

Joe Simpson and Simon Yates were two ambitious young climbers with aptitude and passion who pursued a first ascent of the West face of Siula Grande, a mountain in the Peruvian Andes in 1985. They were successful in reaching their goal of the summit, although the climbing was difficult. They had hoped that the descent they had chosen would be less difficult, but it turned into a nightmare when Joe broke is leg only 1/3 of the way down, which was the equivalent of a death sentence for both men.

14) Tyson Steele: Alone and Resourceful in the Alaskan Winter After a House Fire

Tyson Steele was homesteading in the Alaskan wilderness, snowed in.. really… miles from his closest neighbor… the closest road 45 miles away, without a snowmobile/snowmachine. He made the mistake of throwing cardboard on his fire, and a portion of that cardboard, once lit, traveled through the chimney and deposited itself on the roof of the home he was living in, burning his home to the ground, leaving him without shelter in the middle of the winter, and no way to safely leave.
