A couple survival stories from mountaineering.... I think there are movies and books. But you might be able to find details on Wikipedia or something.
1) Touching the Void - guy fell into a crevasse and dragged himself across a boulder field with one (maybe two?) broken legs to find help
2) 127 hours - dude trapped by a boulder all by himself who ended up CUTTING OFF HIS OWN ARM to escape
3) Beck Weathers was left for dead but survived the 1996 Everest disaster - depicted in the IMAX film Everest and the book Into Thin Air
