We hauled him up the slope got him to the life flight helo still breathing. They took him to Valley Med Trauma. Month in a coma, multiple plates and rods. came out with no brain damage and a limp. Some of my best work
I'm surprised he survived long enough to meet you and your crew. I've seen dismembered, decapitated, and otherwise destroyed torsos that required much less trauma to finish them. Like I said, not pretty.
