Who: A 20-year-old man
Where: Jurupa Hills, Southern California
His mistake: It is unclear
What happened: A man was hiking alone on a trial when he lost his footing on a loose, rocky hillside. The man fell about 30 feet and landed in between two boulders. He had to brace himself because below the boulders was a 1,000-foot drop. Luckily, he only suffered minor cuts and bruises.
While bracing himself, the man yelled for help and another hiker in the area heard the man. The passerby called 911. Two Sheriff choppers were sent to the scene. One chopper lowered firefighters a couple feet above the fallen hiker. The firefighters were able to package him for an air rescue.
