dougwalkabout Crazy Canuck Carpal Tunnel Registered: 02/03/07 Posts: 3256 Loc: Alberta, Canada	I can't believe this man survived -- it defies belief. He had a freak fall into an 8-inch wide rock crevice some 40 feet deep. Yet somebody heard him calling out for help. And rescue crews managed to get him out alive. Incredible. http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada...e-than-20-hours http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada...dramatic-rescue
