Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571
An Uruguayan air plane with 40 passengers and 5 crew members disappeared back in 1972. Everyone was presumed dead, but 72 days after the crash, 16 survivors came forward and told the story of what happened. The plane crashed in the Andes, and 12 died right then and there. 6 more died in the days after, and the remaining 16 passengers had to resort to cannibalism to survive. This story is the basis of the 1993 film “Alive.” Yikes!

TWA Flight 800
230 people died in this plane crash mystery. They were on the Trans World Airlines Flight 800 which exploded and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean near East Moriches, New York, on July 17, 1996. Some have pointed their fingers at terrorists, but there is no evidence to support or refute that. Some believe a US Navy vessel blew up and the US government has been trying to cover it up. There have been other suggestions, but no definite cause.
