Not a cave rescue, but a pretty exciting video

Postby Ernie Coffman » Dec 8, 2010 8:10 pm

This is a pretty exciting video on a rescue up in the Canadian Rockies. :woohoo: Though it's not a cave rescue, I thought you might be interested in viewing this flick and seeing something similar to a SKED, but not.

Wow! Thanks for posting. Made me nervous since I don't like heights.

Sure looks like a SKED. Hope they've got that guy's feet tied in, so he doesn't slip out. :rofl: One of the things that's overlooked in litter carrying. :laughing:
