Look away now if you are squeemish.

BBC News - Danny Boyle’s 127 Hours to close London Film Festival

It's Touching The Void with a bloody stump.

Hmmm..from Wiki..

 "He forcibly levered his forearm against a chockstone until both the radius and ulna bones broke. Using the dull blade on his multiuse tool, he then cut the soft tissue around the break. He used the tool's pliers to tear at the tougher tendons. "........

That's on a par with Ran Fiennes's diy surgery....

Ran Fiennes could not actualy feel his manky dead thumb...this guy had to hack/tear his own arm off.

It's his own dumbass fault for being out there alone and not mentioning to a soul where he went and when he should be back of course but a good effort all the same.
