Was involved in a MRT helicopter rescue at the bottom of Mickledore on Friday. Middle aged gentleman fell 20m or so down the face.
Suspected broken wrist, rib and leg. Two open fractures to head. MRT helicopter managed to lift him off the mountain within about an hour of it happening, which is outstanding.
Video of the airlift is on Wasdale MRT facebook page.
Wondered if anyone else involved knows how the guy got on? Suspect he is still in hospital having undergone some fairly extensive surgeries.
Well done to all involved. MRT and non-MRT.
Be careful out there guys.
