Publisher's Summary

Aron Ralston, an experienced 27-year-old outdoorsman, was on a days solitary hike through a remote and narrow Utah canyon when he dislodged an 800-pound boulder that crushed his right hand and wrist against the canyon wall. Emerging from the searing pain, Aron found himself completely stuck. No one knew where he was; no one was coming to rescue him. With scant water and food, and a cheap pocketknife his only tool, he eliminated his options one by one. On the fifth night, wracked by delirium and uncontrollable shivers, Aron scratched his epitaph into the rock wall, certain he would not see daylight.

Yet with the new morning came an epiphany: if he could use the rocks vise-like hold to break his arm bones, his blunted pocketknife could serve as a surgeons blade....

Simply the best book I've ever read...

Which is ironic given I felt the first hour was really a bit of a filler and its a short book! Though really, if you are on the fence, I really recommend you go for it. You feel like you are right there, wondering what you would do. Wondering if you could do the same. An parts will almost give you a tingle down your spine.

I wish the book did not end. I wish he had added more as the years went on. Maybe one day...

So please give this a try!
