I climb mountains i understand things can go wrong but to put others at risk when the weather in Scotland was predicted to be terrible is shameful they should be billed for the rescue
The rescue team are amazing ❤ risking your lives to help selfish people
Rescue teams are legends , idiots going up mountains in predicted hazardous weather are morons
-2°c even with strong winds is just business as usual for thos hard rescuers…
that was no mountain more like some pissed glaswegian lost on way back from cargo shop 🍺🍻🥂🍾🍹🍸👣👣👣😨🙊
Great job on the rescue team! 😊
Why go up there in winter. It’s asking for trouble?
Somebody ignored the weather report?
From Phoenix AZ USA – Rescuers are heroes no matter where they work. Here, the summers are brutally hot. A +110° F (43C) is an average balmy summer day. Phoenix has a ridge of dormant volcanic mountains in the middle of the city. They are Regional Parks with great but rugged hiking trails. Every year our local rescue team saves tourists, but sometimes residents, from the top of the mountain. Locals, it’s generally an accident of some type. Young athletic tourists especially do not understand how quickly dehydration happens in those temperatures. Inevitably they have an insufficient supply of water. At least once a year rescue becomes a recovery effort. Blessing to the Rescue teams around the world. 🙏
These teams are our heroes ❤
