This dude from Salvador that survived
for 438 days at sea is in deep trouble thanks to the family of the
guy that he was with that is dead. 37 year old Jose Salvador Alvarenga and this
22 year old guy named Ezequiel Córdoba that was paid $50 set out to
sea and shit got real when the small fishing boat got caught up in a
storm and ended up over 6,000 miles away from where they were
supposed to be. Alvarenga ended up writing a book about surviving
this whole thing and the death of Córdoba.
Alvarenga says that he ate his own
fingernails to survive and that his partner had trouble handling the
situation. Gee. Ya think? He says he also ate raw fish, turtle blood,
and his own piss. His friend died after a few months at sea and made
Alvarenga promise not to eat his body and to tell his mother what had
occurred. Córdoba's mother thinks that Alvarenga ate her son to
survive an wants a million bucks from him. He says he talked to the
dead body for almost a week before washing his feet, taking his
clothes, and then slipping him into the ocean.
Alvarenga said in an interview “Not
for one second did I think of eating Ezequiel. I wouldn't have done
it, even if it meant that I starved. It would have been on my
conscience forever.” His lawyer thinks the dead dudes family just
wants some money. Well, I can understand that. And chances are her
did make a Manwich out of their son. I don't know what I'd do in that
situation. I don't think I could eat someone I knew. But I probably
would.
