People Whose Will to Live Was Stronger Than Circumstances

This mountain climber cut off his hand to survive.

In April 2003, in Canyonlands National Park, Utah, a 660-pound boulder fell onto climber Aaron Ralston and trapped his right arm.Aaron spent 4 days under the boulder. He even carved his name and his estimated date of death. But he decided to fight, and he cut his trapped arm with a knife he had in his backpack.After that, Aaron was able to climb down a 65-foot wall. Fortunately, he met some tourists who transported him to the hospital. The climber was saved.
