Deserts are some of the harshest places on Earth.
They can be burning hot during the day and freezing at night. There is little or no water. Dust and sandstorms can make it hard to find the way. Despite these dangers, people have survived being stranded in the desert, from cars breaking down on rural roads, to a plane crash forcing survivors to walk over 100 miles for help. Find out how they made it to safety in these true stories.
