The use of helicopters in Search and REscue is dangerous, and Colorado's high elevations and warm summertime temperatures only compounds the dangers for the aviators and rescue crews. The use of a helicopter is limited to rescue those whose injuries that are life-, limb-, or eyesight-threatening, or when conditions put ground rescuers at significant peril.
The arrival of a helicopter in a search and rescue setting should never be considered an expectation.
It is an exception.
What an amazing guy. Not only rescued him but kept him talking and calm. Excellent job. These people are absolute heros.
I'm hijacking this comment since it's got the highest number of likes. I'm the Colorado Army National Guard PAO and I actually made a 30-minute documentary on this rescue for anyone that is interested. It includes the GoPro footage seen here, but also includes a lot more footage from the surrounding mountain/ build up to the rescue. I also have interviews from the two climbers that were rescued, as well as the crew that conducted the rescue.

Your an idiot, this guy has done it before. You saw everything except how he pre-positioned himself for the different harness pieces the rescuers had to reach for next
these guys having small talk while dangling below a helicopter lmao too funny
Amazing... Hovering and hoisting at this altitude is the most freaking thing that any airman would experience. Thnx to the brave hearts for doing such noble work
my stomach hit the floor when the helmet cam looked over the edge of the helicopter and you saw how high up he was. these guys are incredible for doing this, i could never
No. Kidding. Lord
Sorry it took so long. No problem. He said it’s quite a view. Got a reply of ya. Balls of steal thanks for your service everyone in the chopper on the ground helping with that rescue.
Respect for the pilote!
The position in the air is accurate and the team members communicate well with gestures.
Great!! Cliff rescue is the advance hoist skill.
Respect from South Korea Air medevac team(Medeon unit)
Not enough people see this, guys. You're heroes ~ ground and air. Awesome.
💪💯❤️🙋🙏
The climber must feel more than a little sheepish. Great vid coverage and hats off to the rescue team.
He was high up he looks experienced...no shame in that
his climbing partner was injured and evacuated, they went back for climber 2, they seem experienced and climber 2 seems calm about the situation, things happen..
Doing this job since 18 (first in the italian CNSAS then in the USA for a local station).
Even I did/do this as volounteer, it's the best "job" in the world!
Thats a kick ass job!
Impresionante video, gran habilidad, tranquilidad y concentración del piloto y rescatista. Felicidades.
Thank you for such a great video and thank you for all you do. I carry an emergency alert device into the wilderness. It is one of those things you hope to never activate. It is great to know that if help is needed; it will be there. Thanks
What was wrong with this guy? He didn't seem to have any obvious medical issues, broken bones, etc. He was obviously alone. Was he soloing a technical route and got in over his head? He also didn't seem to have any technical gear, unless it was in his pack. He didn't seem to be in any distress. Impressive rescue, less than impressive responsibility by the climber, or was he just a hiker, though the terrain is clearly not hiking terrain.
It's not directly obvious, that this was the injured climber's partner. The injured individual had been evacuated prior to this footage. The partner was not injured, but was in a precarious spot and was lifted out after his partner.
@@alpinerescuevideos2315 Never trust a hiker with a patagonia jacket. LOL
Good job Dale and everyone else!
What are the people doing so high up on the mountains?
climbing... his partner was injured
Why did he need rescuing he wasn’t injured , is says in the blurb they will only risk the lives of pilots and crew if no other form of rescue can take place ?
his climbing partner was injured, the guy you see is climber 2
Chapeau ! Il faut du courage a ces sauveteurs en montagne
These Patagonia commercials got real
How does that helicopter even fly with men with balls that big!
Fantastic 🫡🫡🫡.
don't ask me about the blood, I'm not a medic. Says so on my helmet. (0:55 mark)
It elevates the danger ;). God bless❤
Aaaaaaaaand that’s why I stay on the ground.
Was this training?
No, Nick, this was an actual rescue. The video starts during the evacuation of the second individual; the one hoisted prior to video rolling was injured and already in the helicopter. This was the companion (hence, so easily talking and moving around).
@@alpinerescuevideos2315 Thanks for the reply. Well done
Nice advertising for Fort Collins Brewing sticker on the guys helmet. they make decent beer.....there is better out there.
😂I noticed that
Pretty cool. Should show the pilots as well. They work hard too.
Well done
What do the spinning hand signals mean?
pay winch cable out or in
Yup, kind of weird! It is the job of the hoist operator to just lower the person, he is on radio with the pilot telling him where the person is compared to the ground, typically you say ”half way”, then ”30 feet” ”20 feet” and so on. The Guy dangling only need to start signaling when he is close to the ground. No need to start waving your arms around right out the door…
How does one go about doing this job? I am a 23 year old male and I am interested in the occupation.
We are all volunteer mountain rescuers. You may want to investigate National Parks or the military, amongst other occupations.
@@alpinerescuevideos2315 do the people you rescue get billed for the rescue it's self. In Scotland their is no charge.
@@lewisdean22 No, we do not charge for those we rescue!
@@alpinerescuevideos2315 many thanks
@@alpinerescuevideos2315 you guys must get tons of gifts. Including lots of beer and dinners. Haha
holy shit that's scary
Is this a training rescue?
Nope, a real rescue. The individual was the partner of someone who was injured and lifted out prior to this footage
Found it, thanks. ua-cam.com/video/ApOem4DFkss/v-deo.html

15T -> blackhawk crew chief in the Colorado NG

Sorry to break it to yall it's just a training mission.
this was an actual rescue, injured climber was evacuated and went back for climber 2 uninjured
