He
Lost His Arm
But Is Still
Climbng
Aron Ralston is an American man
who is
interested in
mountain climbing. As a
mountain
climber, Aron in used to taking risks.
This is
one
of
the exciting things about doing dangerous
sports. There were many times when
Aron almost lost his life
because of
accidents. On Apil 26,2003
he found himself
in a very dangerous
situation when climbing
in Utah.
On that day,
Aron
’
s arm
was caught
under a
360-kilo rock
that fell on
him when he
was climbing
by himself in
the mountains.
Because he could not free his
arm, he
stayed there for five days and hoped
that someone would find him. But when
his
water ran out, he knew that he
would have to
do something to save his
own life. He was
not ready to die that
day. So he used his
knife to cut off
half his right arm. Then, with
his left
arm, he bandaged himself so that he
would not lost too much blood. After
that, he
climbed
down the
mountain to find
help.
After losing his arm,
he wrote a book called
Between a Rock
and a Hard Place. This
means being in a
difficult situation that you
cannot
seem to get out of. In this book, Aron
tells of the importance of making good
decisions, and of being in control of
one
’
s
life. His
love for mountain climbing is so
great
that he kept on climbing mountains
even
after this experience.
Do we have the
same spirit as Aron ? Let
’
s
think about it before we find
ourselves
“
between a rock and a hard
place
”
, and
before we have to make a decision that
could
mean life or
death.
