Allen set off from a small town called Aspen. He first climbed Sopes Peak near Aspen. Then he left Aspen, which was still snowing, and drove west for several hours into the Utah desert. Heading towards the Horseshoe Canyon west of Moeb
, Allen is preparing to start a one-day canyon tour, because the expected travel period is short, he only took a car, a mountain bike, a first aid kit, and a Climbing rope, an 8 cm long pocket knife and a day's rations, but! He does not have a mobile phone.
Allen has great physical strength and is also an adventure travel enthusiast. At the age of 27, he has conquered 49 of the 54 peaks over 4,300 meters in Ohio. Two months ago, he and his companions climbed together. nearly killed when an avalanche near Snowmass peak in

he will be parked in horseshoe Canyon, highway about 70 km from here, the night he was camping on the spot, the next morning, he Riding a mountain bike and heading south for 2 and a half hours against the wind, we arrived at Blue John Canyon, where the area is vast and the weather is varied. There are many places in the park that are very remote and no one has set foot, and Allen went to the west of the park this time. Edge zone
This generation of sand is loose and difficult to travel. The gorge is deep and narrow. The sandstone may slide or move at any time. Even in summer, the temperature difference between day and night can reach more than 20°C. After
arriving at the destination, Allen started his 24km hike. After traveling in the Blue John Canyon for nearly 3 hours, the kid was still not honest. He came to a gorge about 1 meter wide. The flaming red sandstone was uneven. He climbed the rock. Everything went smoothly at first. At 20 meters At the height of, he successfully climbed a seemingly strong boulder. However, when he was climbing a 3-foot crack in the rock, unfortunately happened...
Allen slipped and fell suddenly, and his entire right hand and forearm were squeezed between the 350 kg boulder and rock wall! No matter how much he pushes, squeezes, pulls, or tugs, it is in vain
He has 2 burritos, a few pieces of chewing gum, and 3 liters of water in his backpack. These are his only rations. He tries to save as much as possible and extends the time to wait for rescue.
Of course, he also did a lot of self-help while waiting for rescue. But because the stone was too heavy, everything was in vain.
On the third day of being trapped, Allen drank the last drop of water.
On the fifth day of being trapped, Allen made the most important decision of his life.
He took out the 8 cm long folding knife and first aid kit from his hiking bag, put them on the rock in front of him, tightened his right upper arm with a bandage, and cut it down along the right elbow joint because of the knife. Very blunt, Allen cut the muscle and soft tissue of the right arm continuously for an hour, and then he broke the radius of the forearm near the wrist first, and moved the position in the next few minutes, using the torque principle to break it with the help of rocks. Ulna
A large amount of blood spewed out, stained the boulder that pressed his right arm, and ran to the ground. Due to a large amount of blood loss, Allen almost fainted. However, he overcame the severe pain and quickly took out the antiseptic ointment and bandage from the first aid kit and gave it to himself. Emergency hemostasis treatment of right arm
Allen was trapped on a steep rock wall, 25 meters away from the bottom of the canyon. After a simple hemostasis, he fixed a rope to the rock wall with a climbing anchor, and used one arm to descend with the rope 20 Dormy, walk towards the hope of life
The wider the desert canyon, the softer the sand, and the easier it is to sink. For ordinary people, walking on this is also very hard and laborious. Alan not only has to fight for time with blood loss, coma, dehydration, etc., but also walk on foot at least It takes only 7 miles to see a glimmer of hope.
Fortunately, his luck exploded at this time. When he stumbled and approached the Horseshoe Valley, he finally met other travelers. They gave him food and water and took him on. At this time, the search and rescue helicopter also found them
on the plane. The police officers kept talking to Alan to prevent him from falling asleep. The police officers saw his empty right sleeve tube.

On the contrary, Allen, who was leaning on the cabin drinking water, told them straightforwardly: In order to survive, he had to amputate his arm.
12 minutes later, the plane arrived at St. Mary’s Hospital. The whole incident was the most incredible. The dumb things happened, and Allen went into the emergency room without any help.
After the incident, the police went to the Blue John Canyon to search for Allen's right arm. The climbing lock was still hanging there, and the surrounding blood was stained. The doctor said that even if the broken arm and Allen were sent back to the hospital, there was no way to transplant it. , Take a step back, even if Allen was rescued on the first day of distress, Allen still needs to be amputated
at the press conference afterwards. Allen said that during those 5 days he had been thinking about how to get out of trouble. His mood has changed many times, but he knows that he must remain calm. When on the rock wall, he often imagines that he is drinking. He said: "In the canyon, I feel that someone is with me, and I feel that my relatives and friends are together. I am together"
