Here's a look at what we're working on for Monday: We're bringing you incredible stories of survival.

Hear pilot Mike Trapp tell his unbelievable tale of crashing into Lake Huron and then spending the next 18 hours treading water - fighting to stay afloat and stay alive.

Plus, one year after the earth collapsed and trapped 33 miners nearly 700 meters underground, we'll hear from one of the Chilean miners about those dark days.

And how does it feel to be the only person to walk away from disaster? A sole survivor on how it changed his life.

And finally, we'll revisit Mark's interview with Myda Egrmajer - the Canadian who was left stranded at sea, alone after her father was attacked and killed. How she survived, her dramatic rescue, and what she discovered about herself.
