  1. Thankfully nobody got hurt trying to rescue them. SAR are people too.

  2. With a Russian helicopter???

  3. Send the hikers a bill for their stupidity !

  4. Should have left them there, then it warns others. …😂 Or maybe not, I guess that doesn't work on mount everest😂

  5. No gloves? A young lady was found dead on Baldy just the other week. When are people going to learn to stop winter hiking if they aren’t expertly prepared and experienced!!!

  6. Only princesse's need saving.

  7. Они считают себя бессмертными? Без подготовки и снаряжения пошли.

  8. I love how everyone wants to charge them and leave nasty comments. Maybe you all have more intel on them than this video shows. If they were my kids I would just be happy they were safe and thankful to SAR for getting them home to me.

  9. Why dont they just slide down the slope?

  10. Thank heavens, these people were found and rescued. Other climbers there have not been so fortunate, including an actor missing for weeks, whose body finally found there.

  11. Is this a russian made helicopter?

  12. The glorious end to the Great No Return Plan expedition.

  13. The best bit of this is that there's a "Mount Baldy!" 😂

  14. That was God right there…✨🙏✨ Thank you for sending them the rescue team just in time. Bless all of them for their hard work and sacrafice to save people in urgent situations.

    Amen

  15. Don't they need a permit with required traing to do this hike so they don't get into this situation and possible die???

  16. need to be rescued.. but can still record it😂

  17. I see lots of cotton, no gloves, and absolutely zero clue. Stay out of the mountains without proper training and gear. Full stop.

  18. Anybody else see the guy fall when we was getting out of the helicopter?

  19. These stranded hikers never learn

  20. Sooo????they forgot sunglasses? They went snow blind? I've done SAR and winter mountaineering for 35 years. Can't figure what else could have stranded tgem.

  21. These dummies keep hiking up Mount Baldy in the snow? 🤦‍♀️

  22. Excellent work by the rescuers, but this violates the laws of natural selection.

  23. Charge them every penny that was spent to save these daisy's

  24. Charge them 😕💸💸💸 helicopters cost money

  25. W folk just do this to a helicopter ride. Funny, they had no problem getting to the helicopter. 😅

  26. Just wait when they get their $100,000 bill from the rescue helicopter 😂 ok ok I'm joking but it's like $60,000
    let’s not forget the New Zealand woman who fell while rock climbing in Yosemite National Park and was hit with a $1.2 million hospital bill.

  27. I can see My. Baldy and Mt. Wilson from my front porch and it's beautiful to see the snow capped Mountains mixed with an ocean and palm trees but it's a formidable hike especially this time of year.
    A few ppl have been lost up there and lost their lives and not found for months. Thank GOD these ppl are safe now.

  28. I'm glad everyone safe but I am curious, what does a rescue like that cost?

  29. I wish I had more context so that I could understand their reasoning.

  30. Charge them💵💵💵

  31. I think they're ready for Everest.

  32. I am an old school hiker that prefers to hike my way back the way I came. These kids deserve every bit of help they seek.
