Scientist Falls 70 Feet Into Mountain Crevasse — And Lives

An American climate scientist fell into a 70-foot crevasse on Mount Himlung in the Himalayas, and he lived to tell the tale. Western Kentucky University professor John All was conducting climate research in Nepal on Monday when he suddenly fell, breaking his arm, five ribs and dislocating his shoulder.
He looked up, realized he had fallen through a 70-foot hole and turned on his camera. Later, he posted it to Facebook, describing it as "one of life's hardest moments."
