How did anyone survive?

A blogger at CNN wonders how anyone survived the plane crash that killed disgraced former Senator Ted Stevens (R-AK).  Well, one of the survivors was the stepfather of my brother in law’s best friend.  Several of the passengers were Catholic, and they said three rosaries between the time the plane started to malfunction and their rescue.

In addition to the crash itself, the plane, following the crash, was surrounded by a lake of leaked fuel, yet the fuel never ignited, or they’d have been dead.

A thirteen year old boy, whose father died in the crash, managed to unbuckle himself, help pull the others to safety, and console his own father who was dying, all with a broken leg.  It was that young boy who led the others in the Rosary.
