E76 La Tragica Historia de Omayra Sanchez
Episode 76
Thursday, 13 November, 2025
Omayra Sánchez was a 13-year-old girl who was tragically trapped for almost three days under the debris of her home after the 1985 eruption of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano in Colombia. Despite rescue efforts and media coverage, her legs were hopelessly pinned, and rescue workers could not reach her with the necessary equipment to free her without amputating her legs. After approximately 60 hours, she died from complications, likely a heart attack, gangrene, or hypothermia.Her story became a global symbol of the disaster and the failures in the official response, and a photo of her by Frank Fournier won the World Press Photo of the Year in 1986.
