Stéphane Bern & Matthieu Noël SEASON 2021 - 20226:00 p.m., April 22, 2022
Historically Yours brings together 3 characters who lived in the Amazon: Charles-Marie de la Condamine, scientist and astronomer, member of the Royal Academy of Sciences in Paris, who went down the Amazon as a challenge... Then, more a challenge, a childhood dream: the young Raymond Maufrais chose to roam the Guyanese jungle alone to encounter a legendary mountain inhabited by the Indians.
But it was death that he found at the end of the road.
And a man who also very nearly lost his life in the Amazon: Antonio Sena who spent 36 days alone in the vast forest, without food or weapons, when his plane crashed there. ..
