Roberto Canessa: We're gonna die, you know.
Nando: Maybe. But if we die, we're gonna die walking.
Carlitos Páez: Hey, I'll pay for pizza if you go get it.
Antonio 'Tintín' Vizintín: Alberto.
Carlitos Páez: Dead.
Alberto Artuna: I'm not dead. I've never felt worse in my life, but I'm not dead.
Nando: I'm proud to be a man on a day like this.
Federico Aranda: Are we supposed to fly that close to the mountains?
Answer: Keeping in mind that some parts of the audience were not familiar with the details of this story, using Paez as the narrator retains some of the suspense of Canessa and Parredo's journey across the Andes. If the audience is not told at the start that they survive, at least some viewers may have considered that one of them may die during their trek to civilization.
