1.Romanian Avalanche

In 2003, a British politics student named Ken Jones took a holiday from his
studies and traveled to Romania, where he wanted to scale Moldoveanu Peak.
He almost made it to the summit when the earth shook and a pair of avalanches dumped tons of snow on top of him, trapping him helpless on the mountain. He managed to walk ten miles through the freezing cold over the next three days to a remote Transylvanian village, where a local doctor saved his leg and his life.

2.Indonesian Tsunami

The massive tsunami that was in Indonesia on the day after Christmas in 2004 still stands as one of the most devastating natural disasters in recorded history. In all of the chaos as waves up to 100 feet high covered the Indian Ocean coastline, some interesting stories came to light. One story was about a small boy named Martunis, who was washed away while playing soccer in Indonesia and spent the next 18 days floating in the ocean. He was finally rescued and taken to a hospital.
