For some reason, this story is really high there on the list of “Important news that Americans should know about.” So anyway, the story goes that this hiker cut off his own arm to escape a boulder. That’s almost as hard as ripping off your arm with the same arm! Anyway, they found the arm. The only thing that confuses me about this is that the story reports that
“The lower portion of Ralston’s right arm was recovered Sunday and taken to a mortuary, said Young, who helped move the boulder. ”
Mortuary!? Are they gonna have an “arm funeral?” What’s the deal!? Perhaps I am just ignorant of other cultures. Anyway, I hope the arm made it to arm heaven, and my thoughts are with the surviving extremeties.
what the heck!
are you kidding me? the guy cut off his arm to save his life, what’s its called compartmentle damage control.
they took the mangled arm to the Mortuary probably cause.. hmmm im no expert but youre no supposep to just throw a bloody human arm in the trash!!! jackass
