    Comforting to know that after booting the hairy twins you'd say sorry ... not that I'd be able to hear it over my own moaning.

    Maybe Japan is a safer bet huh AntZ? Those Geisha Girls wouldn't do that even if we asked!

    Default Lucky guy....

    The guy that sits next to me in shcool didn't show up for class on "Snowy Wednesday" so when he did show up on Thursday I chided him a bit about not coming in because of the snow...that was not the reason.

    Here's the reason:

    His brother (JB) was out hiking in the mountains with a friend (L) over Thanksgiving weekend and he lost his footing on a scree slope and started stumbling. Keeping cool he tried to arret but to no avail. He tumbled down the slope going faster and faster until he got to the end of the scree and then fell about 3 meters off the side of the slope hitting his head on a rock when he landed.

    He then tumbled a bit more and again fell off the edge of another small cliff and again landing on rocks. His friend estimates he tumbled and fell in total about 150 feet between sliding and falling.
    His friend L is currently at SAIT taking the EMT course so he chased after him and when he found him he wasn't breathing. He cleared the snow away from his face and was just about to begin CPR when JB came to. L assessed JB and he had a pretty decent sized gash on his head but was alert. Seeing as they were out of cellphone range, and couldn't call for help, L supported JB at times carrying him on his back for 3 hours while they slowly walked back to the car.
    When the got to the Kananaskis field station, the rangers took one look at JB and immediately called for STARS air ambulance and they were both evacuated to Foothills hospital via helicopter.
    L has a broken rib, numerous bruises and cuts and I think a broken arm as well from taking the same route to get to JB
    JB has a fractured skull, greenstick fracture in his leg, fractured sacrum, lots of cuts and bruises, a huge gash in his head that now is full of staples, a shunt in his head to keep the brain swelling down and other injuries. They took him to surgery when he arrived to stop the swelling in his brain. He lost quite a bit of blood also in the ordeal and had to have a transfusion.
    He had a camera backback full of camera gear on his back when he fell and they figured that's what saved his spine from being fractured. The SLR he had in his pack was fine...not even a scrape if you can believe it!
    The best news is I got an email from J last night and he said his bro is doing so much better. The neck brace is off and he's moving around and has all his faculties which I find amazing with a head injury like that!!
    Quite the story huh?
    One lucky bugger to be sure!

    Thanks Z...I will pass along your well wishes.
    J's family wants to nominate L for a national hero award for saving JB's life.

    J told me too that L is just so humble about it too...no big deal what he did in saving his friend's life...still WoW's me.
