You guys - ground and air ~ are the biggest heroes. Seeing this a decade later but know it's still true. Be safe and happy trails to you all.
🇨🇦🙋✨🙏💯❤️
Nope not “heroes”. Extremely overused term. They are however extremely skilled, reliable professionals providing an urgent service who the rest of us outdoor enthusiasts may need in out most dire times. That’s better than being a hero.
Helicopter pilot was so smooth and clean!!!
Thanks for watching!
While I never hiked/climbed in Canada and never had to call for a rescue, I'm always glad to know well-trained people like you all are out there looking out. Thanks.
Wow - their work is unbelievable. obviously a calling
without you guys we would have suffered greatly on Castle mountain august 23/2010. thanks :)
It's one thing to hike/climb these mountains, it's another thing to rescue those who encounter trouble. Well Done!
Thank you people for your care.
nice to know you guys are out there, never plan to use you but nice to know.
So much respect for the rescue team. Impressive stuff
Brilliant job by the rescuers! It sometimes hard to treat patients on the ground when I'm full of adrenaline yet these guys are cool as cucumbers hanging off the cliff. Much respect!
That must have been one big rock that cracked his helmet open. Glad he seems to be alright, and glad that he offered to share his experience with the world. Danger is everywhere, but thankfully they all took the right precautions and pros around to help out.
An inspiring example of human compassion and co-operation.
This is thee best rescue I've ever seen. I'm glad you guys are out there. Just awesome.
Wow such precision. Hats off to you guys for your service
An absolutly amazing video! Kudos to the rescute team! The two climbers are UCalgary Medicine Libin Institute profs, with the one who was injured being a department head. Having spoken to the now well recovered Professor Lytton, Professor Welsh also had a very important part in the story having a good ending.
NOTE - I'm sharing names as they were already shared via media to the public by the individuals involved.
Unreal ! Great job. Glad you are out there.
Total respect guys. It's good to advertise a bit so people have a more concrete view of your amazing job.
For every kind of compliments.. is how you saved a man well done guys, huge respect ... God bless you !
Wow! Great job! The footage is unbelievable!
What an incredible service you do for that country. Cudos from the South African Fire Service.
Thanks Parks Canada!

The patient ended up suffering a broken ankle, broken ribs and resulting pneumothorax in the lung, dislocated shoulder, point tenderness in his back and spine, as well as a lacerated face.
God damn, this is why I stay on the ground lol
Doing your homework and letting people know where you're going is a must. but its good to know there are heros like these guys to pull our asses out of the fire if we get in trouble. keep up the good work guys!
Amazing job! Lucky climber that this happen to him in area with heli rescue and weather wasnt nasty as it can be.
Great view from rescuer's point of view. Thanks for sharing!
Great job guys. You worked so smoothly like you were on level ground. Impressive.
Brilliant. Haven't seen such a good video of a rockface rescue like that.

@hdeeplive backcountry rescues within Banff, Yoho, and Kootenay National Park are funded from a percentage of the vehicle pass fees which are collected at the Park Gates.
We have scramble brochure/maps (also on our website) for the very popular scramble route (as opposed to climbing routes) on Cascade Mountain. We have rescued hikers/scramblers from this route in the past. So it's important to do your homework and be prepared.
How much does it cost when you have to get rescued?
Amazing!
Outstanding!
nicely done
Those pilots are amazing. so smooth
Awsome vid guys! Impresive rescue too.
Total badasses. That pilot and rope team. Damn!
Pretty cool guys. Good work!
My Rig Rescue ticket means nothing compared to the wild stuff you do.
Good job!

Congrats, real professionals ~
Respect!!!

Comment ? Awestruck - unable to describe the work of Safety Specialists

You guys are badass.

What badasses what I dream I could do as an arborist and rock climbing enthusiast
That is... simply amasing
And that is, a very long way down
Awesome!
Amazing. I would love to do that.
Amazing
Well that was pretty much the coolest thing I've ever seen. I'm a firefighting student right now, and that would be my dream job right there aha
Here watch this! Mount Blanc in France. They get 50 calls a day sometimes. Great rescue you series. ua-cam.com/video/ztDs0RGPjpM/v-deo.html
How has firefighting been for you...6 years later?
Unreal!!!
He slipped and fell to that position? He is very lucky. I can’t even imagine. Scary!
great!
When you're up on the side of a cliff or mountain like that, are there still flies and mosquitoes?
impressive!!!!!!
@Tanker256
You can read the accident report here pc.gc.ca/progs/np-pn/sp-ps/sec7/index_e.asp#DansDelight-aug28
Well Done! :D
haha I wouldn't describe that as a "good ledge" jesus you guys do a tough job. Well done.
Amazing work gentlemen! One question: What was your rationale for delaying C-spine?
This was on national TV last nite. You can see the GoPro shadow.
Can't believe a man could seat by a cliff for such a long time.
that was great....
This looks frightening 😥😥😥 sad at the same time
So was the climber Ok, after all of this? Nice work.
He was going from the hard part of Cascade Mountain?

Nice work! Is it typical to film a rescue?
here in america it would cost you about $15,000 for that rescue. i rescued a friend of mine and she had already called 911 before me. luckily i got out there and got everything handled before the helicopter showed up. it just took off when i got them down and the were able to cancel the pricey heli flight
wow amazing job. Would you say this is an accident or carelessness or the climbers part. I mean you should be screwing down those hooks every 10 feet or something right?
It depends on the type of climbing and the conditions on the rock you are climbing. You don't really "screw down hooks" in rock climbing. Either it's prebolted in which case you follow the bolts that are there, or it's traditional climbing in which case you place your own (usually removable) protection in cracks and other features in which case you work with the features that are available. It sounds like in this case it was just a random rockfall above him that sent him off the rock, maybe taking some of his gear out of the wall or maybe he was just in a situation where he couldn't place anything for a while (what we call runout).
for this rescue it seems it was none of the above, he was hit by rock fall (which was above him so he couldn't have done anything about it) and it caused his fall
