Do you have them too? I recently am very into the story of the cannibalistic rugby team stuck in the Andes in 1972, rewatching the movies on this case many times. I read also the story by Nando Parrado who was one of the survivors (his dad had a cool name: Seler, which in my native tongue means a celery 
) - luckily, it was translated into my language. I read about this case for the first time as a child; in a teen novel "The Cauliflower Blossom" by a famous writer of teen girls novel series from my country, in which two teenage boys remark on this. It's my newest obsessive interest. Do you have any interests like that too? As a child and teen I liked the story of Robinson Crusoe as well - he didn't face any specially difficult ordeal (not in comparison with the one mentioned by me previously, at least) but he did live alone, on an island far from civilisation.
