Two weeks after a plane crash in Colombia killed 71 people, a Brazilian soccer player, who was one of the few survivors, woke from coma over the weekend but has no idea of what happened. Helio Hermito Zampier Neto, 31, was one of the six survivors of LaMia Flight 2933 that crashed in Colombia on November 28.

Neto however has no memory of the accident. He and his teammates (19 of them died) were on their way to play the championship of a South American tournament when the crash happened, and he asked about the outcome of the game when he awoke from coma.
Doctors and psychologists at the hospital are withholding information about the crash from Neto, until he is stable.
