Re the jar of salsa - the first real "starvation studies" were done by French doctors interviewing the men who survived the Grande Armee's retreat from Moscow in 1812. Apparently there is a big difference in survival between having a tiny amount of food and no food at all - men reported surviving on a mug of tea twice a day, or one man who had a parcel of beef stock cubes received in a letter from home.

@somerandomguy706

I started laughing the second you said NYC. That dude is a Darwin award nomination waiting to happen.

@ocalafl954

That daughter trying to save her mother was absolutely incredible! Thank God for a stranger in the right place at the right time!

@mercedesaponte6201

Kyle - I appreciate the first story about the runner at Horsetooth Reservoir. I'm a Coloradan since 1974 and have trained in CO for 40 years (former pro cyclist). I can tell you this story about the young (less than a year old) mountain lion was unfortunate and sad. The Dept of Wildlife said the is mountain lion was young, likely lost it's mother and was in poor shape and starving. It would never go after a full grown human otherwise. So sad for both. Just saying!

@surfergirl2943

Such a good topic Kyle !! My niece was one of the people who retrieved the mountains lion who attacked him. She’s one of the big cat specialists for the state of CO - such a crazy story!

@PhxVanguard

I'm from Arizona and can speak pretty confidently on the last story. Every year we get idiots visiting from the east coast and midwest who think that when it's 115 out that they can hike north mountain, or camelback without water at 2pm. Every year we hear about emergency evacuations happening. I once (a few years back) lived in a condo near Squaw Peak and someone was stranded on the mountain in the middle of the night. I could hear the helicopter and could see it flying about from my balcony. She had figured that she could hike without water at night because the sun wasn't out... scorpions and rattlesnakes be damned, apparently. it happens with such frequency that the state legislature mulled over proposing a "stupid hiker" law to match our "dumb motorist" law. basically, if you ignore common sense, you will pay the cost of your rescue and helicopters are expensive.

Some folks should not even go out in their yards without a keeper.

@Big_Tex

“Hello 911? It’s me again ….”

@simonagree4070

Aww... that poor mountain lion! Practically a kitten! (With big sharp teeth and claws.) 😅 I heard a rustling in the bushes when I was camping near the Russian River. Spent half the night worrying about it. Next morning, it turned out to be a tortoise going down to the river for a drink. Speaking of which, there's high liquid content in salsa -- I'd rather have the salsa than the chips!

@arnehusby1420

Here in Norway with its harsh climate, we have a number of rescue operations after tourists who have done something stupid in our wild mountains. If a tourist has done something really stupid, like climbing barefoot and gets stuck on a ledge. Can they risk getting a bigger bill, if large resources have been spent on picking him up. For normal rescue operations due to bad weather, fog or a lot of snow. Of course, those who are saved will not have to pay.

@ivanvarykino8202

The multiple rescuse story hits a little close to home but mine involved water rescue from a newly purchased boat. The 2nd time in same day I had to radio for help, my buddy was in process of getting tangled up in thick weeds trying to swim to shore for help. Terrifying. The same safety officers that arrived broadcast one statement: "You guys again?!".

@Emy53

That daughter had a strong will and love, to save her mother. She is amazing especially because she had a challenge herself, but she didn't let that stop her. Many blessings to these amazing women, and these hikers.

@domilontano

Mom almost falling off the cliff made me cry. The love of a good mom is a force of nature; she was willing to fall to her death to save her daughter. Thank goodness that guy was there to help!

@ekhouser614

Baffled by the Humphrey's Peak story. I've done that hike, and the my profile pic is quite literally from that summit. No mountaineering experience necessary, and a very easy hike up and back in short time. How on Earth could someone get into that much trouble two times in a row?? Ouch.

@vinceimp9581

Humphreys peak is a solid hike but well defined until you get to that last bit above the ski lift. The rangers actually make a late day hike to round up such individuals.

@sip_water

I've never felt sketched out by a cougar in 15 years of hiking the cougar dense area I live. But I almost got attacked by a cougar playing Pokemon Go at 3 in the morning. Cub crossing the road where I was walking with dilated eyes and a glowing phone shoved in my face, with its mother in the treeline.

@ryanm839

I honestly love how scary the woods are, that’s half the fun!

@everburninglamp

I’m so pleased that webcam man was saved, being a viewer of random webcams it must have been pretty epic too see that!
