The Making of a Beauty Queen | 8
Miles from help, they have to face the brutal cold with barely any food, only a sale for shelter, and a leaky plastic dinghy. Desperate to survive, they build a raft and try to reach safety. But as starvation and frostbite take hold, and days stretch into weeks, their endurance is pushed to the limit. Follow Against the Odds wherever you get your podcasts.
