This was a beautiful story. So moving how her parents' lessons guided her and how the river floated her to safety, how they crashed so close to a place she knew well. So much mercy even in times of great suffering and tragedy. Her survivor's guilt must have been terrible, though... her poor mother.
'Girl Against the Jungle' was the first story I read in English for a class assignment as a German student, about 4 decades ago and haven't forgotten about it to this day. A great story about survival, but also absolutely grueling! It was even more graphic about how Juliane kept digging the maggots out of her arm with a stick and used a long stick to poke in front of her to get a heads up on snakes and other critters. Nice retelling of this story!
This was such an incredible story of skill and knowledge combined with unlikely yet fortunate circumstances beyond Juliane's control falling into place to save her life. I know it this happened a while ago now, but I my heart still goes out to her for surviving such a traumatic event.
Maggots are actually pretty helpful with wounds. They are nature’s clean up crew. Thankfully, we now have methods of cleaning wounds that are visually easier to handle, but out in the wild nature rules.
"Never fly inbound to Monterrey Mariano Escobedo airport." "Flying above Peru is an unnecessary risk, never take it." "Peruvian airline companies like LANSA and AeroPeru are garbage." My father was a pilot and those three statements were his creed Hope everyone understands that.
@ it would stress me out until I got those maggots out. That’s like waking up to a panic attack and about to have a heart attack for me. The she pulled out 30 of them. 😳
There was an incident where a plane crashed in Florida and there were only two survivors, younglings somewhere around the age of ten and they were cared for by a cougar meaning the big cat not the older woman. Those children were brought to a rangers station by the mama cougar and they were mostly fine s m afterwards.
Hey Brew!! Can you PLEASE do a story on this 15 year old girl from Canada who died from an anaphylactic shock from kissing her boyfriend after he just ate a peanut butter sandwich???? Id love to hear your coverage on that one it was something huge back in 2005 ❤❤
Can’t imagine falling out of a plane from that height and to know that my mom was also on the plane but not know if she was dead or alive. Her parents work and teaching her all about the Amazon helped save her life. The thoughts of maggots in my wounds would freak me out even though they may have helped her survive as well since they can eat the dead tissue. When I was a student in college for respiratory therapy and I was in clinicals at the trauma center we had a patient in the ICU with a bad wound and the doctor got permission from either the patient or the family to use live maggots on the wound. If I needed that you better give me strong sedatives to prevent me from freaking out.
The maggots saved her arm. They destroy the infected tissue so the healthy tissue can survive Nature always has a cure you just have to find it and believe in it.
@@travisnguyen7260They’re talking about the point of view. Generally videos use 1st (I, me) or 3rd (They, he, she) but Brew always starts the videos in 2nd (You) so we put ourselves in the shoes of the person in the story before telling us the full thing. :)
I’ve heard this story before but with not even a quarter of the details and it was STILL one of the scariest stories I’ve heard. It stuck with me, thinking of being all alone deep in the jungle, without my glasses. Thinking of sleeping there with how loud and unsettling the animal sounds at night must’ve been, plus the grief of what happened to her mother…
11:09 I used to have constant dreams where I couldn’t open my eyes, and I could only see a tiny slit of reality in my dream. I couldn’t even imagine being unable to wake up from that nightmare.
Hope does a lot for a human mind and sou., and further bolsters the resilient human spirit to make it indomitable. I love listening to tales and accounts like this.
It’s too bad that the Rugby team from Uruguay didn’t have any experience with mountain survival training… this was by far the most interesting and harrowing story of survival I have ever read about.
I'm a bit surprised you've never done the story of *the ghost canoe of Lake Tarawera.* Seems to me a story like that would be right up your alley. And I'd love to see it illustrated in your style.
Why can't i find the GPS location of where the plane crashed? I see pics of when she went back in 1998 the plane is still there! I tried looking on google earth but the jungle is a huge area!
She woke up and had maggots on her arm? how log was she passed out cold? according to a quick goggle search it takes up to 24 hours for maggots to appear, this only means she was unconscious for about a day or 2 after the crash. It will all had been prevented if they only had fallowed the dad instruction to NOT fly on Lamasa planes... Dad: "why didn't you got in time for Christmas?" Wife: "i didn't fly at Lamsa as you advised, good thing i did, that plane crash en everyone die"
At 11 years old, my French teacher made us read this story, still traumatized... what's with teachers and traumatizing students with horrible stories.... :')
Replace "A girl wakes up" with "You wake up," and you've got the kind of intro I'd use for short stories in high school. I liked to make the reader as uncomfortable as possible.
This is actually a real story, the woman's name is Juliane Koepcke and she was the sole survivor of a plane crash in the 70s. She wrote a book in the 90s iirc, and there was a dramatized reenactment of her story on TV around the same time.
You are the reason why I am scared of office chairs. It was the first video I've seen of you when you explained that office chairs can explode under your Butt. Now you made me scared of flying in a Plain. Thanks Brew.... jokes aside you are an Incredible RUclipsr mate
Yeah most of the airlines like South America and Asia are the ones that have the worst flying records. I watched a bunch of air disasters and most of that is a proven fact there. South America has a bad safety rating and tendency to go over mountains but they shouldn't.
26:22 it sounds like her mother survived the fall, which is unlikely considering Julianne didn't find her... Unless her mom got eaten by a predator that left Julianne alone because it wasn't hungry anymore, or some other crazy story 😨
At the start of this vid there was around 100-200 views and 50-90 likes now I have finished the video and now with 3000-4000 views and 500-600 likes wow
The two terms, short-sighted and nearsighted, used to be completely synonymous and refer to the vision problem. Today, short-sighted can also mean "without foresight", like with the word "myopic". Only nearsighted doesn't carry the additional definition, which is why many prefer it over the other two words for the vision problem, but you can still use short-sighted in reference to vision if you want. I agree, however, that's it's usually not a good idea to use short-sighted in reference to vision unless you're going for the pun.
The picture of the plane you are showing in the video is not a LANSA aircraft, that's a LAP aircraft (Lineas Aereas Paraguayas) which is from Paraguay and not from Peru. Also, saying "Jakare Caiman" is redundant, jakare is the guarani word for caiman, or even crocodile.

Ikr
You know coffee....actually you don't need more reasons to freak out
Have a good week buddy
@@LPgmxDan 💀
Do you mean your morning Brew?
☕
Every time I hear this story, it just amazes me how someone could survive that experience at all, and yet, she did, it's incredible...
And it is a fate I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Truly harrowing.
I listen to the same story but on Be Amazed
This was such an incredible story of skill and knowledge combined with unlikely yet fortunate circumstances beyond Juliane's control falling into place to save her life. I know it this happened a while ago now, but I my heart still goes out to her for surviving such a traumatic event.
No sponsors for this was a really decent move. Good man Brew. Looking forward to 2 million subs. You deserve it.
Bruh, even if there's a sponsor, it's not a big deal. He gotta make money, you know?
@@24-7gpts true
I know it was the least of her worries but the thought of maggots burrowing further into you is always the hardest part of this story for me
maggots generally prevent gangrene and more lethal damages they're kind of useful actually.
They will only eat dead flesh and thereby they're actually keeping the wound sort of clean. In a way the maggots might have helped save her life.
Maggots are actually pretty helpful with wounds. They are nature’s clean up crew.
Thankfully, we now have methods of cleaning wounds that are visually easier to handle, but out in the wild nature rules.
You guys are most definitely correct and it might've actually been in her favor but it doesn't make it any less horrifying to me
"it's okay the knife I stabbed you with was heated to 200 degrees so it cauterized the wound."
At this point brew has convinced me that anything can kill me and living is too dangerous
gotta end myself on my own terms before something else ends me without my permission, i always tell myself
Ditto! 😂
Well, living is always fatal, even if you minimize all risks.
100% of people who died were living shortly before death, so
None of us are making it out of here alive
brew is the brainiac
bean asks the questions kids would ask
and grill adds the humor
What about the the girl they used to show? 😮😢
"Never fly inbound to Monterrey Mariano Escobedo airport."
"Flying above Peru is an unnecessary risk, never take it."
"Peruvian airline companies like LANSA and AeroPeru are garbage."
My father was a pilot and those three statements were his creed
Hope everyone understands that.
Wow, I’m glad her parents taught her how to survive in the Amazon rainforest. I’d be scared the whole time with predators and the dark at night.
Fr if I woke up with maggots in my arm I wouldve like already died physically and mentally 😭
@ it would stress me out until I got those maggots out. That’s like waking up to a panic attack and about to have a heart attack for me.
The she pulled out 30 of them. 😳

luckily maggots are pretty good at doing it and they stay in the rotting part they have no interest in the living part
@@admiralkaedebotfly maggots, which were the maggots on her arm eat the living skin.
This is the strong female characters movies should focus on.
Agreed.
Facts 👍🏾
Can we all just appreciate how Brew uses 2nd person in his intros? Few others do that.
Wdym 2nd person?

This little girl was a survivor… this is the type of female character you need in the heroes movie..

Hope does a lot for a human mind and sou., and further bolsters the resilient human spirit to make it indomitable. I love listening to tales and accounts like this.
Whoever did the sound editing on this one did a great job picking and mixing which music went where. :3
That's right, children.
Always wear your seatbelt!
"All it takes is one strike from mother nature to bring humanity's aspirations back down to earth"
This girl reinacted her accident and survival for the movie made about it. Much respect
It’s too bad that the Rugby team from Uruguay didn’t have any experience with mountain survival training… this was by far the most interesting and harrowing story of survival I have ever read about.
Lol I'll watch this video after my flight to Florida.
@karibeck9340 Perhaps. Or not.
Enjoy your fright. FLIGHT. Sorry.
Beware of Florida Man. He bites.
I'm a bit surprised you've never done the story of *the ghost canoe of Lake Tarawera.* Seems to me a story like that would be right up your alley. And I'd love to see it illustrated in your style.
Not the best thing to see when I’m going on a flight in a couple weeks
Why can't i find the GPS location of where the plane crashed? I see pics of when she went back in 1998 the plane is still there! I tried looking on google earth but the jungle is a huge area!
Maybe to prevent "souvenir collectors" if the wreck is still there
@@crawfy48 They show other crashes just not this one very odd.
Probably because it broke into several pieces at quite a height and the debris scattered so it's not one whole piece that could be spotted and marked
lets get him to 2 mil
🎉🎉
Yea, following a river will take u to civilization..unless u follow it in the wrong direction...
PTSD is so hard to live with, but she probably had survivor's guilt as well 😢
yesss it feels SO GOOD to see the other boys again!
4:28 Makes sense, cold blooded reptile lover.
Why do you call her Julian? Isn’t her name Julianne? Pronounced Juli ANNE.
I wouldn't risk going on a flight if I was warned not to.
Moral of the story: Don’t fly Lanza airlines?🫢
Don't fly on any sketchy airlines
I remember reading a book on this as a 4-5th grader
1:27 - 1:56 huh. a statement urging the reevaluation of what "survivalism" means in a crisis. topical!
[stares in beleaguered american]
Ah, released almost at midnight for me, how I wish i could grab a morning coffee but that'll have to wait just a wee bit
Where at? It's 10 am here
Here in central US
@@lanceholder7794 In asia, I moved from Japan to Singapore but it's only like 1 hour difference from each other so no issues
I’m STILL traumatized from the fingernail video, Brew 💀🙏
She woke up and had maggots on her arm? how log was she passed out cold? according to a quick goggle search it takes up to 24 hours for maggots to appear, this only means she was unconscious for about a day or 2 after the crash.
It will all had been prevented if they only had fallowed the dad instruction to NOT fly on Lamasa planes...
Dad: "why didn't you got in time for Christmas?"
Wife: "i didn't fly at Lamsa as you advised, good thing i did, that plane crash en everyone die"
The fact that she survived all day knocked out in the jungle in itself without getting harmed or eaten is a miracle in itself
I love how brew makes vídeos more fun... by adding more "background" characters!
At 11 years old, my French teacher made us read this story, still traumatized... what's with teachers and traumatizing students with horrible stories.... :')
Try watching the original Disney's the Fox and the Hound at age 10 at school. Life long trust issues have ensued.
Im 11 and im still watching this.. hope i dont remember this ever again
I was waiting for this Story to be on this Channel, keep up the Brilliant and Insightful Content!
Julianne isn't pronounced Julian.
Imagine this being a reboot of the original Final Destination
Replace "A girl wakes up" with "You wake up," and you've got the kind of intro I'd use for short stories in high school. I liked to make the reader as uncomfortable as possible.
To be that guy, the title doesn't have "A" at the start
LOL
Are you a Guy then.
Makes sense, you are just a secondary homunculus.

@@evangeline77x yes i know, it’s just most of his stories sound absurd but i know they are all true
This actually happened. I've seen the girl tell her story.
@@5pieceMcNugsAre you saying that someone surviving a plane crash isn't absurd?
it is absurd, but his other stories are like somebody exploding after eating a bigmac.
I thought a key element of her survival was being caught in an updraft from the storm on her way down, thus significantly slowing her fall?
I still can't believe that most people who tell this story tell it like it was pure luck that allowed her to survive
gotta love having a messed up sleep pattern, I caught Brew before it as an hour in
God has more than one eye on that girl. So sad that her mother didn't make it, and the other passengers, but we have to take what we can get.

The picture of the plane you are showing in the video is not a LANSA aircraft, that's a LAP aircraft (Lineas Aereas Paraguayas) which is from Paraguay and not from Peru.
