This climber suffered a daunting fall after they slipped on a loose bit of rock. 

Social media manager Emmeline Wang was trad climbing in Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Nevada, with a group of friends on 19th November. 

As Emmeline was scaling the route, a piece of rock broke loose from underneath them and sent them free falling down the mountain. 

Luckily they were strapped in but they suffered a fractured fibula and torn ligaments, meaning they are temporarily unable to climb. 

Emmeline said: “I was trad climbing on a route and a rock broke from underneath me, sending me into a crazy free fall. 

“The fall was crazy looking!

“I love climbing and while this accident has taken me out of the sport for a temporary amount of time, I know I’ll come back better and stronger!”
