Saison 3, épisode 1

Undercover in The Real Soprannos P1

For three years, Giovanni Rocco lived two lives. By day, he was a man with a wife and children. By night, he was Giovanni Gatto—a mob associate climbing the ranks of the DeCavalcante crime family, one of America's most powerful organised crime organisations.He was brilliant at it. Too brilliant. So brilliant that his captain, Charlie Stango, loved him like a son. So brilliant that he was proposed for membership—to become a made man.But there was a price. Everything he built was a lie. Everyone he loved was in danger. And when Charlie Stango asked him to arrange a murder, the FBI had to pull him out.What happened next was worse than anything that came before: witness protection, erasure, a life lived in hiding, and the realisation that the man he'd become—the only version of himself that felt real—could never exist again.This is the story of an undercover operation that succeeded brilliantly and destroyed everything in the process. This is what it costs to survive. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

462 Days: Kidnapped in Somalia P1

In August 2008, Australian photojournalist Nigel Brennan travelled to Somalia on assignment. It would be the last decision he made as a free man for nearly a year and a half. Within days of arriving, Nigel and Canadian journalist Amanda Lindhout were ambushed on the outskirts of Mogadishu and taken captive by members of a militant group. What followed was 462 days of unimaginable physical and psychological torment, starvation, isolation, beatings, and a desperate will to survive in conditions that would break most people within weeks. But this is not just a story about captivity. It is a story about what happens to a human being when everything is stripped away. The fear, the negotiation, the impossible decisions made by families on the other side of the world trying to bring their loved ones home. The moments of dark humour and unexpected humanity in the most inhuman of circumstances. And the daring escape attempt that changed everything. Then there is the question that haunts every survivor, who do you become on the other side? How do you rebuild a life, a sense of self, a relationship with the world, after 462 days in hell? In this series Jack Laurence sits down with Nigel Brennan for an extraordinarily candid conversation spanning the months before the kidnapping, the ordeal itself, and the long and difficult road to recovery. It is one of the most remarkable survival stories ever told. Nigels book is avaliable here Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Robertson Family - 38 days at Sea P1

In June 1972, the Robertson family set sail on what should have been the adventure of a lifetime aboard their schooner, Lucette. But when killer whales attacked and sank their vessel in the Pacific Ocean, Dougal Robertson, his wife Lyn, their three sons, and a family friend found themselves adrift in a tiny life raft hundreds of miles from land, with minimal supplies and no hope of rescue. What followed was 38 harrowing days lost at sea, battling dehydration, starvation, and the psychological breaking point that comes with complete isolation in one of the most hostile environments on Earth. With no GPS, no modern technology, and no communication with the outside world, the Robertsons were forced to survive on rainwater, raw fish, and turtle blood while drifting through an area of ocean larger than most countries. This is the true story of one family's fight for survival against impossible odds. How they caught food with their bare hands. How they rationed every drop of water. The unthinkable conversations they had about what they'd be willing to do if rescue never came. And the remarkable resilience that kept them alive when most would have perished. From the moment the whales struck to their miraculous rescue over a month later, this is the complete account of the Robertson family shipwreck, one of the most extraordinary survival stories in maritime history told by the man that lived through the experience.

Hollys Hell P1

Holly Deane-Johns grew up in a comfortable suburb of Perth, Western Australia. But beneath the surface of a privileged childhood lay a darkness that would shape the entire course of her life. When her mother became addicted to heroin, the drug found its way into their home — and into Holly's life — before she was old enough to fully understand what it would cost her. By her mid-twenties, Holly found herself in Bangkok facing a sentence that would take her breath away. Caught attempting to traffic heroin out of Thailand, she was sentenced to thirty one years in Lard Yao Women's Prison — one of the most notorious and brutal correctional facilities in the world. A place so far removed from anything she had ever known that she struggled to find the words to describe it. This is the story of how a girl from Perth ended up behind bars in a foreign country, what surviving seven years inside a Thai prison actually looks like, and how Holly Deane-Johns found a way not just to endure — but to come back.

Pan Am Flight 73: The 1986 Karachi Hijacking P1

On September 5, 1986, Pan Am Flight 73 was hijacked on the ground in Karachi, Pakistan, by four armed terrorists from the Abu Nidal Organization. What followed was a 16-hour ordeal of terror that would end with 20 passengers dead and more than 100 injured. Michael Thexton was on that flight, heading home after the devastating loss of his brother Peter, who had died weeks earlier on a Broad Peak climbing expedition in the Karakoram. Held at gunpoint, pulled to the front of the plane, and facing what he believed were his final moments, Michael made one desperate plea to his captor—a plea that would unexpectedly save his life. This is Michael's first-hand account of survival, grief, and the extraordinary choice he made when facing death. Hear the untold story of Pan Am Flight 73 from someone who lived through one of aviation's most violent hijackings. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On Fire: The Jamie Hull Story p1

On the 19th of August 2007, British Army reservist and SAS trooper Jamie Hull was days away from completing his private pilot's licence when his aircraft engine caught fire during a solo training flight over Florida, he had 45 seconds to decide how to save his life. With the cockpit engulfed in flames and the plane descending rapidly, Jamie did something that should have been impossible. He climbed out of the burning cockpit, stood on the wing of a plummeting aircraft, and jumped. The plane exploded sixty feet behind him. What followed was six months in intensive care, six months in a coma, third degree burns to 60% of his body, over 60 operations, and a 5% chance of survival. And then the longer, quieter battle rebuilding a life, a body and an identity from the wreckage. This is not just a story about surviving a plane crash. It is a story about what happens in the years that follow when the world moves on and the hardest fight is still ahead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What I Survived explores the extraordinary true stories of people who survived the unthinkable. Each story takes you back to who these people were before everything changed, then inside the moment their lives were pushed to the edge, shipwrecked at sea for weeks, held captive by terrorists, falling 15,000 feet from a plane after a parachute failure, and other extreme, life-or-death situations. Through first-hand accounts, we follow the ordeal as it happened, the decisions made under unimaginable pressure, and the will it took to survive. Then what came after, the physical and psychological recovery, and the process of rebuilding a life forever altered. From the creator of award winning shows One Minute Remaining, Wanted and more.
