Homeless Man Rescued After Three Days Stuck on Mountainside Ledge 100′ Over River – Everything Law and Order Blog

This video shows the incredible rescue of a homeless man who had survived three days and two nights stuck on a mountain ledge in Washington. The man told rescuers he’d sought refuge underneath a lookout platform when he slid down the mountainside to the edge of a cliff. He managed to arrest his fall, but when he stopped tumbling the man was precariously perched on a mountainside ledge, mere inches from a 100′ drop straight to certain death in the White River.

Army Corps of Engineers workers who operate the dam reported that on a Tuesday they thought they heard someone calling for help, but they couldn’t find anyone and all the cars had left the park so no search was started. It was a full two days later that workers once again heard a call for help. This time it was decided to call in a mountain search and rescue team, and the groundwork was quickly laid for a helicopter hoist rescue. The victim was taken to Harborview Medical Center where he was evaluated and released in satisfactory condition.

  1. For all the people questioning the medical bill…..the reason they didn't leave without his name and DOB was so they could send him a bill lol. He fittna get a hefty bill but I think all that pales in comparison to being stuck for three days and this being the only way out

  2. imagine waking up after a 3 day meth binge and your a homeless man being rescued off the side of a mountain ledge 100' over a river

  3. He later said that he was sorry and felt ashamed becouse of the smell and tjat he had to take a shit and piss on him self becouse he couldnt move an inch and that he hasent slept the whole time .

    I just wonder how did they know that he was there …like who called in for help ???
