Plane Crash Survivors Taken to Hospital

Doctors and nurses carry two plane crash survivors to the infirmary at Colchague Regiment following their rescue. Two men hiked for ten days out of the Andean wilderness to alert authorities that 14 of their fellow passengers were still alive and living in the snow covered wreckage of the plane that crashed in the mountains ten weeks ago. A helicopter was dispatched to the scene and rescued six of the survivors before bad weather prevented a return flight. (Photo by Bettmann Archive/Getty Images)
