Cllmber hurt in Blue Mountains 9-May-2016 At 3:34:23 PM sbm
Message
I watched the video of the helicopter winch out on the Blue Mountains Police Rescue facebook page, it looked like they were either on the main ledge, or on the ridge walking out (there's a few small poxy sport climbing walls everyone walks past?). Sounds like the woman with rope burns dropped him.

The poor paramedic lashed to the stretcher looked like he got a few wedgies on inconveniently placed branches as the chopper swung all over the place. Looked a bit sketch actually - a good reminder that when you call in the chopper, you're asking the rescue crew to do some tricky and potentially dangerous stuff to make your magic carpet ride a reality.
