Fernando "Nando" Seler Parrado Dolgay (born 9 December 1949) is one of the sixteen Uruguayan survivors of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, which crashed in the Andes mountains on 13 October 1972.
After spending two months trapped in the mountains with the other crash survivors, he, along with Roberto Canessa, climbed through the Andes mountains over a 10-day period to find help.
His efforts, supported in various ways by the entire group, have been recognized through books and other media.
He was portrayed by Ethan Hawke in the 1993 feature film Alive: Miracle in The Andes.
