severed forearm


I wonder if anyone went back to retrieve the arm. I understand it was stuck between a rock and a hard place (unintentional pun), and obviously one person couldn't remove the rock, but could you imagine how ghoulish it would be to go canyoning and come upon that? If it were mine I'd want it brought back and disposed of properly, because "pack it in ~ pack it out".

"unintentional pun". C'mon, you couldn't wait to make a post so you could include that, now could you.

Actually, it was a happy accident.

That just happens to be the name of the book that the movie was based on. "Between A Rock and A Hard Place" by Aron Ralston! haha.

It says in the trivia they they did retrieve the arm, and allowed him to cremate it and scatter the ashes over the rock.

The real life person that actually lived through this beat you to the punch on your "unintentional pun"

I suggest that you visit your local library, and read the book that came before the movie.

Libraries are super fantastic, and underrated. Free books, magazines, music, movies, meeting rooms, educational classes, computer access, and free WiFi.
