Ralph V. Flores (October 24, 1921 – September 20, 1997) was a Mexican-born pilot from California who crashed his private plane in the wilds of Canada's Yukon Territory in February 1963 while on a trip from Fairbanks, Alaska to California. He survived, along with his passenger Helen Klaben, for 49 days, subsisting mostly on melted snow. Flores, a new convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, told the Jewish Klaben that they would be rescued if she would read the New Testament. Soon after Klaben had supposedly finished the last page of the Book of Revelation, a passing pilot, a Mr. Hamilton, finally noticed the giant SOS that Flores had stamped into the snow of a nearby clearing. His grandson, BJ Flores, is a professional boxer. == External links == * (Congressional Honor ) * (''Hey, I'm Alive'', film based on passenger Helen Klaben's book ) * (Review of ''Hey, I'm Alive'' ) * (Notice of death ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ralph Flores」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
