She’s 107 now?

I assume they spun her so fast that she is now only 68 years old. 

If this wasn’t a real, actual, shitty situation it could be a scene from a comedy movie.  Just imagine Leslie Nielsen from Naked gun is on the stretcher.

Didn’t see anyone ask for it and not that it necessarily needed to be done. But, here’s the rescue set to Yakety Sax

Search and Rescue helicopter pilot guy here. In case any of you are wondering if this will happen to you after falling off a cliff face or something and needing an airlift, it won’t if they do their jobs right. In the organization I fly with you have to use a line attached to the litter that’s held by a member of the…

I’m guessing Spin Doctors.

The idea is to land near her, carry her to the helo and load her inside, negating the need to hook her up to Mr Toad’s Wild Ride to begin with.

I thought I was dead inside, but the longer the video went, the more the tech in the helicopter tried to hook the litter with his foot, the harder I laughed. Then they tried to pay out some rope to... what? I guess they didn’t want the patient/litter to hit the skids, so they let her down, which accelerated the spin,…

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Finally, a video that belongs on Deadspin.

I sincerely hope this woman is ok. Now. With that out of the way, I cannot stop laughing hysterically and my bartender says I have no soul. I imagine the lady is in there thinking “this is it. I’m going out in a whirl of adrenaline and blood to the head. I should have stayed in the goddam desert.”

this song is fire...

It will be interesting to see how the firefighters spin this story.
