Human Arrow
Posted by admin under: community service; safety .
Gotta love that Hiker Hell blog. My interest is the age range of the ingenious group that signaled to a helicopter overhead. A climber needed rescue because of his broken leg.
The children noticed the helicopter hovering above them and wandering aimlessly around the Roaches (pictured above) in the UK. Nearby, a climber fell 15 feet and broke his leg in several places.
The children lined up and made a human arrow to signal the chopper. The pilot said the accident scene was easy to find after he saw the human arrow.
