Have you heard about the rock climber near MOAB Utah who, after seveal days of being pinned under a boulder,

CUT OFF HIS OWN ARM, THEN REPELLED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE CANYON IN ORDER TO BE RESCUED!!!

That's one tough mofo.
I can't find news link yet but will post if I do.

I once woke up with my arm pinned under a woman and gnawed it off to escape without waking her.

Raubvogel,

I believe that's the definition of a girl who coyote ugly...

Double coyote ugly is if you gnaw your other arm off after you leave because you know when she wakes up, she'll be looking for a one armed man

I once had an ingrown hair. I thought that was pretty bad until I discovered ingrown toenails.

One tough bastard. Imagine laying there for 3 days with a 200 pound rock crushing your arm.

Hollywood will pick up on that one too.

If not, the discovery channel will.

Wow.

In all honesty, I would not have done it. Of course, theres no way of knowing just how bad his arm was under that rock, if I saw it was so squished that even if I was rescued id have it chopped off, then I may have done it.

But rappelling 'n stuff.. double wow.

Only a few months ago a fisherman got his arm caught in a winch at sea. He had to cut off his arm with a knife to free himself. I believe the story was posted on this BBS.
