Gustavo Zerbino Stajano is one of the survivors of the plane crash in Los Andes in 1972 when he was travelling with his rugby team, Old Christians, to Santiago de Chile. His story has been filmed and written in novels. He became an example of overcoming all adversities when he and his peer group from a Rugby team manage to survive a famous plane crash in the Andes, later recreated in the film Alive.
