"THEY LIVED TO TELL THE TALE
Incredible real-life stories of adventure and survival
Struck by lightning 20 times, savaged by a tiger shark, walking 400km with a bullet lodged in your head, enduring makeshift lung surgery on a jumbo jet. Could you survive? The remarkable men and women in this book did - and they lived to tell the tale. Some are well-known, many are simply ordinary people, caught up in extraordinary events. Read their stories of super-human endurance and be thrilled, shocked, moved and inspired.
- 51 tales of spine-tingling bravery
- Nelson Mandela, Lance Armstrong, Stuart Diver, Joe Simpson, Aron Ralson - great survivors we have taken to our hearts
- The London bombings, 9/11, Tiananmen Square, Hiroshima, Auschwitz, the Burma Railway, Iraq - events that rocked the world but could not crush the human spirit
- 'Where are they now?' updates on what has happened to these heroes since their shattering experiences
- More than 250 dramatic photographs, maps and graphics"
