This is a biographical page that fails notability for a lack of sources. There are no Google News, Google Books or Google Scholar matches. The only web matches appear to be blogs or user comments from "Chaim Grosz". With a lack of sources the factual content may be true or an elaborate hoax, there is no way to judge. Note that this article was created by who may be the same person. Ash (talk) 14:13, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think we need to say it may be the same person: the article is largely written in the first person, and so effectively states that it is the same person. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:45, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Delete, obviously, preferably speedy delete. The "article" is a personal reflection, not an encyclopedia article. There are numerous reasons one could give for deleting it: no citations, original research, no independent coverage found on searching..., but it is so obvious that it is not necessary to go into detailed justification. In my opinion it should be speedily deleted as an article about a person which does not indicate why the person is significant: there are many people who have survived in similar circumstances, and this one is not, as far as the article indicates, any more notable than any other: the only difference is that this one has chosen to write some musings on his feelings about his survival.

 * Delete - non-notable, autobiography. I see it is up for a Speedy, but if not, it should be deleted anyway. --  Phantom Steve  ( Contact Me, My Contribs ) 14:59, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
