00:00Unfortunately, a deceased person, a person rescued initially, and a person who was miraculously rescued because her cell phone saved her, that's right, Carla, good morning.
00:17Hello Eduardo, good morning to everyone on the team.
00:20Well, here we are even with Martín Sepirrafo, who in addition to being one of the heads of the aid commission, also traveled in the helicopter with the last survivor, so we are here to talk to him directly.
00:33Eduardo is listening to you, how are you Martín?
00:36Well, very well, I am trying to go down to reality and returning to normal life, or trying.
00:42Good, in this attempt to go down to reality ...
00:44Eduardo listens to you, Martín Sanliño.
00:46Thank you, Carla, in this attempt to go down to reality, I ask you to take us to the most tense moment of what the rescue was.
00:52How were the tasks, how did you manage to locate this person who ended up saving his life?
01:00Well, the most tense moment, I would tell you, was accepting that we were going to have to go up to a place that was really very risky,
01:09and that if it were not because we knew that he was above this place, we would not have done it.
01:15So that was a pretty difficult decision.
01:18But hey, there was a person alive who managed to communicate, who managed to give references to his location, where he was,
01:26and that we already had other mountain guides who had slept in the shelter that was nearby,
01:32and that we managed to communicate with them so that they would approach first while we left the city,
01:38and that they had already marked the route for us to access, so that was the first thing.
01:43And second, to see the helicopter leaning on a very, very small surface,
01:48and not knowing if the pilot was going to be able to land and evacuate him.
01:54Martín, what were the words of the person who ended up being rescued, and how long did it take to get to the place?
02:03I was not the first to arrive, the guides arrived, but the call was like at 3 in the morning,
02:10and I think the first person who arrived with him was almost at 6, a little earlier, so it was several hours.
02:17And from there we managed to get him on the helicopter at 8.40, so the time was quite long,
02:27but short if one evaluates where he was and where the ranch was being developed and everything that involved the rescue.
02:35Martín, to start detailing everything that happened in this circuit that began with the call and ended with the rescue,
02:43let's listen to the request, look.

06:09Martín, and from the avalanche to the rescue, how long did it take and in what conditions was he when they arrived?
06:16Because he says in the call that he has hypothermia at first.
06:19How was it when they arrived?
06:23When we arrived, as the guides told you, I spoke with them yesterday.
06:28He had a severe hypothermia.
06:30Fortunately, he was still conscious because hypothermia continues to evolve.
06:35The person enters a state of unconsciousness and there it is obviously much more serious.
06:40But he was lucid, with a lot of cold obviously, with pain in certain parts of the body.
06:47But luckily he was very conscious.
06:49And then when he was sheltered, when he was isolated from the temperature, his state of comfort improved.
06:55And what was the flight in the helicopter, the truth is that he felt first relaxed in some way.
07:05Did he talk to you, Martín, in the helicopter?
07:07Yes, yes, yes.
07:08We spoke a few words, but he was already encouraged that the nightmare had ended.
07:16Congratulations, great job on the deployment and fortunately we can save the life of this citizen.
07:22Thank you, Martín. Thank you, Carla.
07:28And in the meantime, cloudy sky in the city of Buenos Aires.
07:32With this temperature that we are having now, 13 degrees, fourteenth is the record, a windy morning.
07:39With winds that are blowing from the northern sector, bringing certainly warm air over the city,
07:45which will make today's maximum reach 21 degrees Celsius.
07:49For the weekend, good conditions, maximums that will be there in the order of 20 to 22 degrees Celsius.
07:57If you have plans for this weekend, good to go.
