Climber amputates his arm, hikes to safety
Ouch. That must be a pretty shitty place to find yourself… “Hmm, I’m trapped under a boulder and I’m out of water. Unless I do something drastic, I’m going to die. I know, I’ll CUT OFF MY OWN ARM WITH A POCKET KNIFE!” The very idea of it makes me want to vomit from the imagined pain.
My question is, how long did it take and (ignore this part if you’ve got a vivid imagination) how did he manage to get through the bone? Maybe the boulder broke the bone? I’m guessing that’s what happened.
