The fall into icy depths

Cornelia Rebsamen

40 meters! That's how deep Cornelia Rebsamen fell into a crevasse during her alpine tour in the Monte Rosa massif. Her fight for survival begins: "Am I paralyzed? Where is my partner? How do I get help?" Rebsamen is injured in the thigh. She can act. And does so. Somehow she manages to call Air Zermatt for help from the deep crevasse with her cell phone. The rescue specialists free her from the crevasse and the Air Zermatt rescue crew flies the mountain enthusiast directly to the Inselspital in Bern. But her life is never the same after this crevasse fall.
