What I believe to be the RP, along with somebody else, off a rope system, but I'm curious if we still have comms with them.
03:52
It appears that the victim is down low and to their left, and we don't really see any sign of life coming from that individual. So I'd like to try to get to RP to determine whether or not they've made any callouts or if they believe that that's a survival fall or if they believe that they have someone who's actually deceased. Are we trying to determine that?
04:15
I copy the request.
04:17

Let us get a better look up close, but we'd be able to get crews up top that would get them at least to that difference rope line quickly.
05:50
So we'll go take another look. I'll get back for you shortly here.
06:03
I see Copter 3. While I go ahead and take a closer look, if you see the RP can give you any indication of what they believe you're used to be.
06:11
Copter 3,
06:16
I missed the end of your request.
06:19
You wanted the RP to do what?
06:22
I think give you any indication of the type of injury if I'm going to be able to scream this patient out or if we have to keep up the supine just ask me if they have any idea of what sort of injuries the victim might have just to do us a head to help please.
