In a famous mountain-climbing accident chronicled in the book and documentary Touching the
Void, climber Simon Yates was attempting to rope his already-injured friend Joe Simpson down a
mountain in bad weather when the belay went awry. Simpson ended up hanging off a cliff,
unable to climb up, and Yates, unable to lift him up and losing his own grip on the mountain,
ended up cutting the rope to Simpson to save himself. Miraculously, Simpson survived the 100
foot fall and eventually made his way down the mountain. But Yates was criticized by some for his
survival decision, even though the alternative would have almost certainly led to both of their
deaths. *
