Small ride ends in the abyss: Salvated Germans saved!

in St. Jakob in Defereggen, East Tyrol, an night tobogganing adventure for a 21-year-old German ended with a dramatic fall. After a visit to the Alpe Stalle snack station, the young man was heavily alcoholized and fell with his sled with about 80 to 100 meters over a steep slope in rough terrain. Fortunately, despite the violent crash, he was unharmed, as 5min.at reported.

The Situation was serious when the affected tobogganist was unable to move back to the toboggan run independently due to his alcoholization. Fortunately, four mountain rescuers of the Defereggental quickly moved out to help. They used a rope to safely save the young man out of the rough terrain, which was achieved without further incidents. St. Jakob in Defereggen, as the main town of the Defereggen Valley, attracts many visitors due to its picturesque location and proximity to the Hohe Tauern National Park, but also offers the necessary relaxation for nature lovers and sports enthusiasts, such as alpintreff.de mentioned.
