Man Who Was Stranded At Sea For 438 Days Has Been Sued For $1 Million After Being Rescued

José Salvador Alvarenga survived 438 days lost at sea after a storm stranded him and a companion during a fishing trip. Living off raw fish and turtles, he was eventually rescued 6,000 miles from where he started.

His story amazed the world—but years later, he was sued for $1 million by his companion’s family, who accused him of cannibalism. Alvarenga denied it and passed a lie detector test. Despite the controversy, his survival remains one of the most incredible in history.
