We all believe we can surmount great adversity. But do we? How would we respond if we were caught in an earthquake or a plane crash, or even something more common, such as getting lost on a hike in the desert? Here are some individuals we looked up who lived to tell about their longest individual stories.

You will be amazed by the abilities of these people not only to make difficult decisions - sometimes in the face of extreme terror - but also to thrive in the aftermath. What was it about these survivors that set them apart? Did an exceptional force live within them? Did they always have the ability to achieve superhuman feats? Or were they just ordinary people blessed with extraordinary grit?

Despite the fragility of life, the longest survival stories prove time and again the durability of our race. Through horrific events, some people have miraculously made it through and come out on the other side.

Survival experts advise that, if you want to know how to survive in the wild, then the first thing you need to know is this: always be prepared. You don’t want to be caught without supplies. But you can’t always be prepared for everything. Duh!

You only need four things to survive - water, shelter, food, and warmth. Water - collect dew, follow ants, travel parallel to mountainsides, or dig for water. Shelter - to protect you from the elements. Food - the best option for wilderness survival food is to eat bugs. Stay warm - the most likely cause of death in wilderness survival isn’t starvation or even dehydration. It’s hypothermia.

Every person profiled in this video was no more or less than an ordinary human being. What set them apart was their will - and the confidence within themselves to use it. For that is what these survivors have, whether they fell out of a plane, or were lost in the Sahara, or were caught spying during the war - they used interior determination to escape the situation. In the end, we are all capable of extraordinary actions. It can just be a matter of how much we believe in ourselves.
