and crashed to the ground. Luckily, she was wearing a safety harness. The other end of the rope was secured to her best friend, Kelly, who was standing at the top. Kelly pulled on the rope with all her strength while the
Speaker A
girl desperately fought to climb back up. After a long struggle, she finally managed to reach the small section of ladder that was still attached. For the moment, they were safe, but now there was no way to get back down. At
Speaker A
that height, they had no cell signal, either. Then Kelly came up with a dangerous idea. She tucked her phone safely inside her sneaker, typed out a message asking for help, and threw the shoe to the ground. She
Speaker A
hoped that once it landed, the phone would pick up a signal and send the message automatically. The phone did get a signal, but the message still
Speaker A
wouldn't send. They waited all night, but no one came. As the hours passed, dehydration started taking a serious toll on them. That's when Kelly decided to climb down herself. Their backpack carrying a drone had fallen onto a large satellite dish when the ladder collapsed. She slowly began lowering herself down the rope. One tiny mistake
Speaker A
meant falling thousands of feet to her death. After nearly an hour, she finally made it down, but the backpack was still just out of reach. For one last attempt, she unclipped her carabiner and lowered herself even farther. Hanging by only
Speaker A
one hand, even then, she still couldn't reach the bag. Now, she was dangling in midair with no way to climb back up.
Speaker A
Then she kicked the tower as hard as she could. Her body began swinging through the air, and at the perfect moment, she launched herself toward the backpack. If you drink water, then like the video and subscribe to the
