Exhausto y desorientado, acabo desviandose del camino de descenso y alejandose de su grupo para vagar perdido por una de las zonas mas desoladas del norte de Pakistan. Solo y sin comida, agua o una carpa bajo la que protegerse, se encontro de pronto en una pobre aldea pakistani, donde le cuidaron hasta su recuperacion. Antes de regresar a casa, Mortenson les prometio volver y construir una escuela. De aquella promesa nacio una de las campanas humanitarias mas increibles de la historia: la mision de un hombre de luchar contra el extremismo y el terrorismo construyendo escuelas. / The astonishing, uplifting story of a real-life Indiana Jones and his humanitarian campaign to use education to combat terrorism in the Talibans backyard.
