    Aron Ralston went hiking alone in Bluejohn Canyon and accidentally dislodged a boulder that fell on his hand and pinned him. He was trapped alone for 5 days with no one aware of his location. To free himself, Aron painfully cut off his own trapped arm with a dull knife. His story of survival against difficult odds became well-known and was later made into the film "127 Hours", named for the estimated time Aron spent trapped before freeing himself.

    Aron Ralston, a 27 years old mountain climber from Aspen,

    Colorado, went on a hiking trip to the Bluejohn Canyon, but


    a tragic accident happened! Aron, while going through a
    narrow section of sandstone, managed to dislodge a 800
    pound boulder, which fell in a pitch point and pinned his
    hand and forearm. But the biggest problem was that he
    didn’t tell anyone he went on a trip.

    On May 1st, after 5 days being trapped, he set himself free


    by cutting his arm with a dull knife, which was very painful
    and difficult to do so, but it was the only solution.

    This story got so popular that they even made a film about
    it. The title of the film is “127 Hours”, which is a rough
    estimation of the time he spent there. He is deemed as a
    hero and a warrior.
