survivors without a parachute

I know of a least one case of a RAF airman who was shoot down over Berlin and was blown out of his plane and survived without a parachute when he landed in a snow bank. I remember reading in my younger days there was at least one other case over France and one Russian who also survived ( I believe the Russian landed on the side of a ravine). Can anyone provide any information confirming this or maybe there are other cases I am not aware of?
