Pinned Under ATV

Posted by 6Dustin on December 1, 2011 at 9:38am in Mr Bruns 360 Message Board

Hunting season is a time of fun but yet danger. A man in Idaho went up toward the mountains with his ATV, but when he never came home his wife and son called police. The reason why he never came home was because he was pinned under his ATV. To make things worse he was in 3 to 4 inches of snow for 31 hours and wasn't able to free him.

Thoughts?

THis is terrible. I feel super bad for him and his family. Just goes to show you never no when you will never get to see your family again. very sad.

Oh my god that would be terrible. I wonder what his family thought happened to him? Also how did he even get pinned underneath his ATV? I hope that he is okay now and that this won't happen to him again.

That's terrible. I wonder why no one looked for him before the 31 hours. I hope he doesn't have any lasting injuries.

I've never hunted before. And I probably never will. so i'll never be put in this situation.

That would be bad because you would be pinned under the fourwheeler and freezing cold because its snowing out.

That's horrible! I admit that I have flipped a couple of ATVs in my life and have never gotten seriously hurt...Thank the Lord...But I could't even start to imagine what that guy went through.

I would have been terrified if that was me. Being alone and having no one to go get help. If I hadn't planned to be out for that long I wouldn't have as heavy of clothes compared to if I would have been out for days. I am glad that he is ok and that he was found:)

I think that when hunting in bad conditions such as these, people shouldn't hunt alone. I mean things happen and what if your family didn't care and didn't call? Then what? Good thing that the family cared enough, but honestly, hunting alone probably isn't the safest idea!

Yes, hunting is dangerous besides the ATVS without using safety precautions one could end up dead from a gun. This guy must have been scared, I know I would be.

that is horrible, that would relly stink to be under a atvin snow for that long.
