Aron Ralston
The mountain climber amputated his own arm when it became lodged under a boulder. Read about his experiences in "Between a Rock and a Hard Place."
“Animals like that don’t deserve to live!” you think. You spring out from behind the bush toward the closest bandit, lopping off his head in mid-laugh! The other bandit goes white as a sheet, screams, and struggles toward his sword. You raise your sword to slay him…but suddenly you hear footsteps behind you and feel a blade sink deep into your back.
There were actually THREE bandits! As your life trickles out of you, you remember your uncle’s advice….
“STAY IN THE SHADOWS!”
