Bizarre Rescue Scene Caught on Camera at US Ski Resort.
A shocking rescue scene has been captured on camera at Mt. Baker in Washington State, where a snowboarder became trapped upside down in a tree well and required the quick thinking of skier Francis Zuber to save him.
The terrifying incident took place when Zuber noticed the snowboarder was stuck, with his legs pointing upwards. Without hesitation, he sprang into action, quickly assessing the situation before using his knowledge of first aid to stabilize the trapped snowboarder until help arrived.
"It's not something you practice, but it's an instinct," Zuber explained in a post-rescue interview. "It just happens naturally when you're in that situation."
Zuber's heroics have been widely praised as a textbook example of what to do in such an emergency. He urged others to take up rescue courses to learn how to handle similar situations.
The incident highlights the importance of being prepared and knowing what to do in unexpected situations, particularly when venturing into remote areas with limited access to medical help.
