Holy shit, what would have been the cause? Was the line twisted in the reel? I feel like that could have been fatal to someone of advanced age or with a heart condition.

The one article had quotes from the department. Apparently there is a line that is there to prevent the spinning, at some point, that line snapped. They also said that it's a known thing that the carrier will spin, but rarely that badly.

Was wondering. I was thinking holy shit I would have thought that to be a sorted thing by now.

Do they charge for air rescues like that? I thought they did in certain places.

Out here if you have to get rescued due to your own stupidity you will get charged. Same if you drive your ford escort into a wash when theres a sign 3 feet away that says do not cross if flooded.

So, shes got that goin for her too.
