and had an open ankle fracture.
-"The helicopter picks us up"
In Boltaña Helisuperficie.
-We have the rescue device activated
And we have addressed the place.
-The Historiade the Torca del Cerro was,
in what I carry in mountain units,
one of the most important bailouts in which I have participated
And it happened, I think I remember, at the end of July
of the year 2005.
For people who do not have knowledge of "thickness",
that Know Picos de Europa is the Himalayas
"Of the caleology, where people go beyond the rest".
-"La Torca del Cerroes a very hard chasm.
It has a difficulty level of five of five
Due to its low temperature, "
great humidity and especially narrows,
Like almost all in the Picos de Europa area.
-"We receive the call"
of our operating unit,
in which a speleologist communicated us
"Hungarose origin had fallen into a chasm,
about 80 meters, and who was deceased.
Upon receiving the call,
I with Sergeant Nodar, who was then, "
who directs the unit of Cangas de Onís then,
I tell you that the first thing is to alert many components
To carry the rescue good term.
-"I in 2005, when it happened"
The accident in the Torca del Cerro, served
In the Boltaña unit, in the Aragonese Pyrenees,
And I remember that I was sleeping, it was night.

And my boss of unity calls me
And it tells me that, at dawn, at 06:00 or 07:00,
We had to go out to Jacara from there
"move in convoy to the Picos de Europa because there had been
An accident in a chasm at -1500 ".
We arrived in Cangas de Onís and the helicopter
"I was moving people and personal.
I remember that the first one who went up the Laureano sergeant, "
that he was the one who understood the most who knew the most of this.
-The dead is 372 dead.
Is at the base of this 86 well.-Yes.
-"I contained that there were going to be countrymen,
No?, People from the Asturian Federation ".
But then I had no relief group.
"It is mobilized about 30 people or so,
30 Mountain Civil Guards ".
-"Use the climb
to stay in shape.
I find freedom at the escalation,
I find a personal challenge.
You stop thinking "
In life and you only think
"In the movements of the climb".
In rescues there are no nightmares,
There are more easy or more difficult situations
that must be solved
"And with what we have we must solve whatever".
While you do a rescue, you don't feel,
You just think and act.
But, when the rescue ends, you look at the helicopter
To the victim, you close the door.
"At that time, we look at each other"
The rescued and the lifeguards
And there is always a smile of complicity
And relief is noticeable, it is a personal satisfaction.

We try to adjust more,
But there was a centimeters of the main rotor and that was done
Inviable to be able to get closer ".
-Here we are.
Disregard.
-The injured is somewhat later.
Let's see what we can do.
"When I get in the mouth of the cave
And I find out exactly how it is,
I interview with which I was going to make them sometimes of disobstructive.
He tells me that sufficient training is not neighboring "
To carry out this mission entrusted to him.
"I told him to give me a course situ there, next to the mouth"
of the cave, how the explosive worked.
He explained it to me in five minutes
And, with them, with another partner
who was with me team, Cape Antolín de Potes,
"Well, we were the first to go down
to the chasm, where many narrowings were,
And we go down with three kilos of rubber 2y 30 detonators.
That is, something that was a bit out of the ordinary.(Laughs) "
-"Where a person has not passed a stretcher.
The stretcher comes to measure
about 2.5 meters ".-This...
Do not bend.
-"It becomes a rigid platform, you need
A space to make a maneuver.You have to remove
certain points for the stretcher "
can turn and enter.
If not, we do nothing.
Without the cameillano we can evacuate the person.
-"We reach the first narrow point,"
That was the one we should disobstruct
"To work the stretcher.
We took the drill
of gas.We put the first hole,
With a drill of 20, I think I remember.We couldn't move
Much of the Puntodand had put the cartridge
from where we were going to detonate.There were barely five or six meters ".
We parapeted with the petacas, with stones as a refuge
and Cape Antolín and me,
that we formed crazy team,
To speak, when we gave him the first time,
Well, it did not work and I, then, of an attack of rage,
I gave him a little stronger and that gave a cucumber.
"We were turned off to both of us"
The carbureros as if it had been a blow.
We were dark and I thought:
(I snort) "I am in hell, I shit in the sea!".
And gave the carbide lighter.
When he turned on, I saw Antolin's face,
of astonishment like me, we laughed and that was like...
An adrenaline download.
From then on everything was fast,
They went well and we were lucky to do...
what was needed for everything to work.
-The Window arrival a little difficult
"Because I was a little further"
And we had to walk a little
"On the Barranco wall.It was..."
A slightly technical path.
-Saches the foot of the water.
(Antoine) for me is no problem.
-It hurts a little.-Yes, sí.
But little, huh? -Poquito.
-Poquito, because then the pain is below.
-Yes, sí.-OKEY.
Do you have things to give you heat?
-I had a technical blanket, I have removed it.
-OKEY,pero ya debes colocártela de nuevo.
-Yes, vale.-Port, OKEY.
I have to examine your foot, OKEY?
-Voucher.
-What do we do? -How must place a venous route
because I think you have to reduce it.
-The medication is supplied to control the pain,
"Although this very brave boy
And he does not complain, not as in other cases, "
And it made it quite easy to do the rescue.
-It's a moment, about 15 minutes.
-¿15 minutos? Voucher.
CUCHO BENASQUE DE GREIM BOLTAÑA.
-Yes, adelante.
-"If need"
15 or 20 minutes.
-Reecibrated, then we cut here.
-Okay.
-"I entered at 22:00 of one day"
And I left like 18 hours later.
-To 12:40 have salidolos four of disobstruction.
-"About ten"
or so we were already in the head
"From the last well.
Cape Toñino, from Boltaña, who was the boss
of team 1, he tells me that if I don't care to go down alone.
I had the courses spellosocorrista
of the Civil Guard.I say yes,
I get down, I'm looking for the body,
that I was left from the vertical, I upload it to the stretcher "
how I can,
I tie it the best I can I hope.
"We saw, when we arrived the head of the well
where he had fallen, that a line of life was missing ".
Something fundamental.No life line,
any failure or error you may have
It has no solution.
If he had carried out an anchor on the line
"Life, or both of you, would not have fallen,
would have been hanging ".
-"Then we used carbide, not like now, that we used Ledes"
And that we have great lamps.
Carburo, when you are in narrow steps,
People who "spear" know that, if they pass near the rock,
"By the work of a movement you can turn off.
The bag or draws, which we say, was very loaded "
And he possibly...,
We are always going through the lamb to advance,
In one of these times, while the carbide went out,
He advanced it, but this, instead of finding the background,
"The ground, he found the empty that same bag could...
precipitate him later ".
"To be able to immobilize your foot,
which is a maneuver can generate pain "
In this fracture issue,
With the help of the morphic and other treatments
It has been possible.
-How I can help?
Do you tell me a little fracture?
You have caught a stone.
But, well, it has touched you.It is done.
I see you well, you are a hard uncle.
They had told us open fracture, we understood that.
-But it is not.-Nope es, no es.
-Do you write with your hand...? With the left.
(Antoine) Don't move.
-Ah! (Laugh)
(Antoine) Don't you have allergies?
Disease or allergies?
No, huh?Any.
I'm going to put morphine, huh?
-We'll take you to Boltaña
And there we ask for an ambulance.
He will go to Barbastro Hospital.What do you think?
-Yes.-For tell your friends, right?
Well, okyy?
(Antoine) Let's place the splint.
"Making the deepest chasm of a country
It is the satisfaction of an athlete,
It is almost like..."
Beat a personal record, right?
"Hey, I have been in the deepest or longest chasm
Or, I don't know, the highest peak...".
"Si algo haydentro of the Civil Guard"
It is the spirit of sacrifice to do everything possible
For helping others, right?
So here we have that recorded on fire.
"I wait for the counterweight to mount"
To ascend by the rope by the one that had come down,
next to the stretcher,
"In case it was hooked at some point that anything was needed".
-"We use a counterweight system, we put a pulley"
of a certain diameter in the header,
A lifeguard
"It hangs at one end of the rope
And what you want to go up,
In this case, it was the stretcher with Gabor...".
The lifeguard is up, and the stretcher, below.
And the lifeguard Bajay the stretcher goes up.
"It takes you five or ten minutes".
-"That first well,"
We thought it would be more expensive because there were many meters,
It was good for us, it came out quite fast.
We arrive at the headery we have to reinstall
All the head and set up a safety rope
To move safely and avoid accidents.
-The worse thing that can pass a speleosocorro
"It's having more accidents".
-"We leave the stretcher in a flat and comfortable place".
-The stretcher have to move it, normally, among six people.
In an area narrowing one in front and one behind.
-We proceed with the evacuation in the following section,
A well of...,I do not remember exactly,
"I think it was 25 meters or something less.
But it was a very narrow well
And the problem that we were not in the account "
at that precise moment
of, among which we were there,
Relieve the body on the stretcher.
And we started to raise it
And, being very narrow,
began to be done like a ball
of the hooks until there was no way.
-"There, on site, above,
The Socorristatuated that open the stretcher, "
Place Hungarian speleologist again,
Tighten all tapes well...
It took five hours.
-The rest of the teams were
"A long time stopped, waiting,
And that, in those conditions, wears very much,
more than work in itself ".
In the end it is possible to move from that point
And we uploaded the cota of -250,
"Where we already deliver ital".
-"Fear exists, we can't say"
not because...A person who does not feel fear
I think it would be dangerous.
Once you've finished the operation and go home
is when you start thinking
"How you have gone from being in a very critical situation,
Very tense, of a lot of stress, "
Then you have landed, you return home as if nothing.
It is a very great contrast and you have to manage it.
"The most important thing in my life, without a doubt, is my son Raúl.
Since he was born,
I change my life.I realized
that everything else is secondary ".
It's what really makes me reset, load batteries
And well, stay there.
"Yes, for some reason,"
He ends up piloting helicopters, I would love.Say otherwise
"It would be lying, right?
But what I want is for my son to be happy ".
OKEY.

The splint already.-Voucher.

Everything was concentrated in a focus.
The helicopter worked a lot,
He made a lot of people of people ".
-The helicopter takes him to Llanes.
-"Yes, to the funeral home, which is brought to court".
-The truth, the pilots behaved great.
-"We were working between 18 and 20 hours each component
rescue.We participate "
actively the interior of the cavity
46 socorristasof the Civil Guard de Montaña,
"Seven speleologists, which are the companions
of the injured,
In addition to those found "
In units, preheated.
-I think that, to date, it is the one that has invested the most people,
Time, effort..., and that everything has gone very well.
"It was going to be the first time that the Civil Guard, only us,
We were going to make a disobstruction of a fall.Till the date,"
The mission was made civilian people was linked to the Federation
And that had adequate training
or at least a pseudo training to carry out.
-He had deficiencies at that time.
Spelosocorristas were missing, formed as such.
They were not, that they did not exist,
"en los grupos de rescateof the Civil Guard, técnicos
of microvolates.At that time,"
had to manage what had.
-"But, from that rescue, it has been"
A turning point where we have changed mentality.
-Nope fue hasta el 2007
When the explosive deactivation service
He already gave us the first courses
To use explosives in La Rocay, especially in the caves.
-"We were very risky and brave
doing something that escaped us
of our control.We did it well,"
We were lucky and everything came great,
But we did not control gases or possible landslides
nor of whether what we did or did in a totally accurate and effective way.
-A rescue like this marks you.
At that time it was the most.
And today it continues to feel it more than we have done
Because nothing similar has been given.
Boys, Boltaña in five minutes.
-"Received, conventional ambulance.Five minutes in Boltaña ".
-"Being in the maneuver,"
It is a very intense moment.
Even if you have done more than 1000 or 1500 bailouts,
It is not one more.
"You should never trust you,
always learning
And, once you've finished and get off the helicopter, "
Well, you feel a relaxation and satisfaction, obviously.
-Agarra.
