A REAL-LIFE STORY OF ARON RALSTON
DATE OF BIRTHΒ : 27TH OCTOBER 1975
PARENTS :Β LARRY RALSTON, DONNA RALSTON
In 2003, Aron Ralston was hiking alone in Bluejohn Canyon in Canyonlands National Park (southeast Utah, USA).
Β
When he was descending into one of the remarkably narrow canyons, a boulder fell and surrounded his right arm.
For five days he survived on packed water and snacks in a hope that someone would find him. Since the spot remote and he also hadnβt told anyone where he was going so it became a difficult hope.
Realizing that he may never be found (also he was running out of supplies) he amputated his arm by cutting through the bone using his multi-tool that included a knife. After he came out, he began the seven-mile walk back to his truck. When he was coming back, a family discovered him and alerted authorities.
He lost 40 pounds during his suffering, but miraculously, avoided bleeding to death.
He now continues to be a mountaineer and works as a motivational speaker.
