This story is crazy. If you’re going on a hike this weekend make sure your phone is charged up.
A guy near L.A. went hiking this week and got stranded overnight. First problem, don’t go hiking alone if possible. Anyway, he had texted a photo to a friend of his legs dangling off a rock overlooking a canyon on the trail he was on. After hours went by he was all the sudden lost and his phone was dying. So rescuers started searching the area using the photo he had sent in case anyone knew the area. Then a random guy on the internet named Ben Kuo came to the rescue.
Ben actually has a hobby where he enjoys looking at random photos to see if he can figure out where they were taken. Perfect man for the job in this situation right?! So Ben began working on the case and figured out the general area, told the cops, and they eventually found the hiker! Nice work, Ben. What a great ending.
