I saw this on Reddit last night and damn he’s lucky his phone didn’t fall out of reach or he’s be dead. It’s hard listening to him in agony but I’m glad he’s okay

Maybe not. I think the first guy that came to help was part of a construction crew nearby. They might have seen him.

911 wasn't real efficient there... Can you please hold while a transfer.... for 5 fucking minutes.

Cell phones make it tricky, and cell phones in remote locations make it trickier. The call ends up at up at a triage center that tries to figure out where you are and routes you to dispatch to the responding agency.

I looked into this somewhat seriously during the pandemic, watched a ton of videos, learned all about the equipment, looked up some schools to learn at... UNTIL one of the youtubers I was following died in a crash. My dream of flying a Paramotor died with him.

Phones should have an instant feature with 911 where it shares your location like a pin drop.
