He survived 5 days with a boulder weighing hundreds of pounds on his arm, then he cut off his own arm which I remind you would be excruciating pain. And then, with his cut off arm and being extremely dehydrated/hungry, he was able to get down the mountain. He has all my respect 100%.

[@hdudhehdhd2222]

Not just that, he cut it off with a POCKET KNIFE. Not a sword or machete that would have been one quick motion, but a small blade that probably took several attempts to slice through. Thats absolutely insane, this guy is amazing

[@codymann6152]

@@hdudhehdhd2222 Its called the sheer will to live

[@hdudhehdhd2222]

@@codymann6152 yeah for sure. This man’s willpower is something else. Honestly i dont think id ever be able to do something like this

[@Ethan_here230]

My question is how did he not shit or piss for 5 days. Genuinely asking

[@calicoasher]

@@Ethan_here230 he did though, it’s not like he wouldn’t have, probably just did it in his pants or used the other arm to pull them down i mean getting ur clothes dirty isn’t a huge deal in this situation, it’s life or desth

[@fishyfish201]

Props to the cameraman for surviving that long without any food or water.

[@mrapple2544]

He ate the arm

[@themomoyoyo6704]

I think it was a scene of the movie

[@Advokaiser]

Who says the cameraman wasn't eating cheese-grilled sandwiches and hot chocolate the whole time?

[@fishyfish201]

@@Advokaiser Obviously they would use both of their hands to hold the camera, especially when flying. If they accidentally dropped it or it fell over they would have to buy a new one.

You know how "Gigachad" is a funny meme about exaggerated masculinity and all that?... This man is the only one I've seen reaching what I previously thought was an absolute impossibility outside of memes.

[@pinkiepie6880]

The movie 127 Hours is great. Another great movie based on a true survival story (or should I say 'journey' as he doesn't survive in the end), is Into the Wild. The Revenant is an awesome epic but it dramatized the truth. What isn't exaggerated are most of the scenes; Leonardo DiCaprio went through hell filming that movie; filming in freezing temps, eating raw meat (he's a vegetarian), etc Also, one of my favourite books as a child was Hatchet. While it's not based on a true story, it's still a great novel for young readers. I never saw the film adaptation.

[@krystalized1108]

I guess you can say he achieved all that one-handed... or one armed

[@Nemisis007]

With a pocket knife? How?

[@n76543]

look it up

[@runtergerutscht4401]

first you tie the arm off to still any bleeding that will occur. Then you gotta break your bones manually, preferrably roughly in the same spot so they have the same length. Then you cut. Through your entire arm. With a knife. The good thing is if you tied the arm off properly, there won't be gushes of blood everywhere. That being said, I don't think there's a lot of things out there that can give the willpower to go through with this other than the raw wish for survival. I probably couldn't do it. I imagine I'd just die in that situation

[@Crown703]

[@jack4293]

I find it overwhelmingly hard to stand without food for just 1 day man this is the most gruesome story I've ever read

[@joshuahouck6258]

Keep in mind he not only had to cut his arm off, but he had to break his arm too before he could cut it. He did this by literally torquing his arm until it snapped.

[@M0CHI-CATTT]

If you don't wanna wait he cut off his arm cause his arm was stuck in a rock (he used a pocket knife)

[@HURR_EMERALDS]

This man is somehow able to put the camera in all these different places while being stuck in place...

[@realGHY]

Woah it’s almost like he used his other arm

[@HURR_EMERALDS]

​@@realGHY Woah it's almost like his free arm was showing in the pictures and not holding the camera :O

When i saw this movie i was crying man all of his friends forgot about him and he was struggling and he only had a litte bit water left in his bottle so he wanted his mountain dew but it was far away from him i mean far away so he cut his arm off cause a big rock was on it the movies could 127 hours

His hands is not there anymore. it took 13 men, a winch and a hydraulic jack to move the boulder, so they can take his arm.

Probably, but depending on how long it has been there, it might have decayed or because of erosion, the rock may have dislodged itself and his arm may have fallen
