    Indeed he is a lucky fellow. I would not give him any odds at all in surviving that a second time.

    I heard about this story as well. 1000 ft. is a looooooong way to fall. As a hiker and climber, it's one of my worst fears to have a trail give way and have that much time to think.

    Ouch! I guess breaking his fall on the rocks along the way down was a "good" idea.
