In Altai, a selfie lover fell off a cliff

A tourist from the Novosibirsk region fell off the Devil's Finger mountain in Altai. The incident occurred near the village of Katun, Aisky village council of the Altai region.

Devil's finger — a favorite place among the guests of Altai. From the top of the mountain there is a stunning view of the Katun River and the Altai Mountains. Thousands of tourists come here every year to take spectacular photos and selfies against the backdrop of nature. Outwardly, the rock resembles a finger with a claw sticking out of the ground, which is also very beautiful.

However, this time one of the travelers was not lucky. On August 16, a message came to the control panel of the duty officer of the Ministry of Emergency Situations that the tourist fell off the mountain. A whole team went to the scene of the emergency: an ambulance team, a rescue team in a fire truck, even the head of the local village council.

The panic turned out to be unnecessary: ​​the man did not receive serious injuries during the fall. But he couldn't get out on his own. As a result, one of the firefighters went down to him with a rope, tied him around his waist and pulled him up.
