i dont get the push her out of the way thing. assuming she's to his left, and the boulder is about to hit her. i'm guessing he moved to where she was, and pushed her out of the way. why not use a diving tackle thereby getting them both out of the way? guy's definitely a hero though

he was laughing at the hiker who cut off his arm. in my opinion it served him right for going off alone without telling anyone or having any survival gear with him. its still hardcore to cut off your own arm though, i think i would just die
