There's a device called a Position Locator Beacon, PLB which is a one-button call for help device.
It works where there're a unobstructed (line of sight) path for the PLB signal to reach the SAR satellites who are orbiting Earth. PLBs works world wide.
One could, e.g. use a PLB from the inner desolate part (The outback) of Australia.
kayak story, wow what an amazing resuce
Whoa! This show is the best! I seen a lot of rescue shows and thought I knew what it was all about- I was wrong! This show put you front in center showing the dangers rescuers face, and the survivors injuries/accidents in a way I never seen before!
I am so happy everyone recovered, and a big thank you to the rescuers who risk their lives to save others.
The snow falls the sun shines the snow melts the nighttime freezes and the cycle continues. You ski across the top not down the mountain. If you caused any amount of snow to roll down the mountain it could be a catastrophic events at the bottom of that mountain . If the sheets are thin they will break away and gravity will do the rest . If you go into the back country you has an emergency satellite link with emergency button that you can push when you’re buried in the snow . You know exactly where your friends are you will hear emergency response in minutes . When people are trapped in the back country and The weather is not cooperating emergency response still knows exactly where you are they only need to figure out how they’re gonna get you out almost always a rescuer will trek through the conditions and reach you until they can get you out .
My back yard is a dream if you are not be stupid if you do you will experience the worst nightmare you could never imagine and will never forget if you survive and most I never found . A small plane crashed into the Forest 30 years ago nobody has ever found a trace of it . I have always done extreme stupidity and you can almost always find books written by those who were before you . You don’t have to be stupid you can learn from their mistakes that’s why they wrote about it . They are making morons pay for their negligence causing accident resulting in mountain rescue .
OK we all watch this video and lets give a big respect to the people that try to save others life and they play with there LIFE!
🏂🏼🏞🧗🏼♀This is why you have to have a good crew with you, always. Especially if you are somewhere where you need someone to have your back. Never go places alone. If they aren't going to drop everything on a dime if something goes wrong, you aren't with the right ones. Head smarts & integrity, respect. No dummies. LOL🏄🏼♀🌊🚣🏼♀
The music kills this documentary. Nat Geo needs to realise that if you put content on youtube, you need to make it for an international audience, and not over-Americanised, which Europeans and such can not stand. The channel has gotten worse over the years. Back in the day, different versions were made. Now programs lack sophistication.
For SPR do 30 Presses on the chest and 5 breads on the mouth.
All these three rescues involved people inexperienced with the terrain. That says it all.
Always carry a flare gun with tons of flares when going into places that a helicopter can only reach u
WOW !!! Working for decades as a doctor in accident and emergency I have to say that this is the first time that I saw an acctual real live resuscitation on film. Usually they are staged to give an impression of what this is like. BUT THIS ONE IS REAL! And he did quite well given the circumstances. People should see this in case they run into a similar situation later in their live!
7:51 this idiot is making sure that his kayak is safe, meanwhile his friend is face down in water. xDDDDDDDDDD
put him on is side ..
You should have to stop doing nonsense thing if u love ure life
No zuo no die
Do you want to play again?
I think every person should have to mandatory take a CPR course!!! That was sooooo intense. Chest compressions done properly would have worked faster. Still a great friend!!! Good job nonetheless
One of the most gripping and intense things I've ever seen and I'm only 7 mins in.
Shout out to Mike, the 2nd guy for the guys on the mountain deserves a shout out as well! Without him calling the chopper even after those guys saving their friend they would have been in trouble otherwise. And Shelby!! I bet your friend warned you about that mountain and you got an ego to conquer it! That mt. Spared you Shelby! Might not be as lucky next time.
i like stories starting "they gonna"
Oof
Oke
Imagine surviving it but waiting to be found under the snow 24:00
Well, my two bits, lol. In my opinion, anyone who is that may endanger life or limb should, A, always go with someone, and B everyone involved should have at least basic first aid training.
Drowning victims, TWO BREATHS, CHEST COMPRESSION, CHEST COMPRESSION, CHEST COMP, AT LEAST TWO INCHES DEEP AND 100 COMPRESSIONS PER MINUTE!!!!
Repeat, two breaths 30 compressions.
And for petes sake DON'T MOVE THEIR NECK AROUND, ESPECIALLY IF YOU SUSPECT HEAD/NECK/BACK INJURIES. YOU COULD PARALYZE THE VICTIM, OR WORSE KILL THEM.
For land, chest compression, chest compression, chest compression. …
That’s what a real friend look like we need more people like them
Why weren't those skiers wearing that airbag backpack thing that is made especially for these types of situations?
How AMAZING Andy! He ran a mainline in her HAND in the top of some shaky trees on the side of a mountain cliff!!
need for more speed
You could hear the desperation in that guys voice as his friend was just there lifeless on the floor…
this was the most intense video i have seen on entire youtube. my heart is pumping and i felt sick until i cried when he kept repeating thank you im alive.
It KILLS me to watch this!! Turn the guy over after some HARD chest compressions, help him drain his lungs. Slapping his face doesn't do much. Seems to have done it here.
They know what they are doing, how they are doing it, and what they are doing it. Thats what makes watching this interesting
The fact that these are all real videos and not reenactments makes watching these hit x10 more harder
Never ever give up reanimation. Thats what we learned. So intense, I could cry😅
bruh im 12 and i know how to do better cpr then that mate
Kayakers should have had a team of people top and bottom including guides, with medical training, sat phone and emergency plan for evac. They can risk their own lives but these people risk others' lives to rescue them.
He saved his life what a savior
If it wasn't for Mike Ryan would be dead well done to him 🙏
surreal to me that i was in the cascades a week ago, and i was looking at that exact mountain!
That dude took forever getting Ryan's head outa the water. He tethered him and rowed him to shore face down lol.
you here! but train a lot that rcp if you go this places alone and try to get some kind of floating collar, it might help keeping the head out of water
16:08 I wonder if Ryan realizes that he was actually dead, or at least very close to it!
My son went down rapids in a boat, and was knocked out of the boat where he was under water for an undetermined amount of time! I can’t believe he’d even do something like that considering I’d had to fight so hard since his birth to keep him alive. He was blue at birth, and has had breathing problems every since.
29:41 The look on my face in my reflection on my phone was one of pure terror! I am very claustrophobic, and something like this terrifies me!
The bravery, composure and skill of those American helicopter rescue crew was incredible. I could barely watch, Bravo.
