2003年5月美国登山爱好者阿伦·拉斯顿在犹他州一座峡谷攀岩时，因右臂被石头压住被困5天5夜。
为了逃生，他强忍剧痛，花了一个多小时的时间，先后将桡骨和尺骨折断，用自己的运动短裤当作临时止血带，然后用小刀从肘部将右前臂硬生生切断。
从岩石下脱身后，为了与失血抢时间，他以超人的毅力爬过狭窄和风力强劲的峡谷，沿绳下到60英尺深的谷底，再步行5英里后与营救人员相遇，终于成功生还。
2004年Aron Ralston出版的回忆录《Between a Rock and a Hard Place》(《生死两难》)中详尽叙述了这段惊心动魄的经历！而他的真实经历也被拍成电影《127 Hours》。

It happened in the mountains of Utah.
Utah State(犹他州）has lots of mountains and is really a fun place for mountain climbers and hikers.
2 On that day, Aron’s arm was caught under a 360-kilo rock that fell on him when he was climbing by himself in the mountains. Because he could not free his arm, he stayed there for five days and hoped that someone would find him. But when his water ran out, he knew that he would have to do something to save his own life. He was not ready to die that day. So he used his knife to cut off half his right arm. Then, with his left arm,
he bandaged himself so that he would not lose
too much blood. After that, he climbed down
the mountain to find help.
