The aerial search and rescue team has rescued more than a thousand cameras in four years, surpassed large and small mountains, and even rushed out of Hong Kong to the mainland, Taiwan and other places to rescue aircraft. The experience of Norway is the most profound.

In June last year, they received a Hong Kong Youtuber asking for help, saying that during their trip in Norway, the aerial camera accidentally fell into the forest.

Because of the precious travel images stored in the aerial camera, the owner sought assistance at all costs. The two members of the search and rescue team, Ajun and Liu Chang, brought 20 kilograms of luggage to the Norwegian forest after two months. It's not easy. The two people finally recovered the aerial camera that fell beside the forest rapids and successfully rescued the film to complete the mission. They also felt satisfied while accumulating experience.

The team received a request from a Hong Kong Youtuber for help in June last year. When the other party's trip in Norway came to an end, the aerial camera accidentally crashed into the forest of the popular attraction Latefossen waterfall because the owner had climbed mountains and ridges to Trolltunga the day before the accident ( Devil's Tongue), the precious images taken with aerial cameras, bluntly said that "even if you go again, you may not be able to return to the mood at the time," so he sought help from the Hong Kong search and rescue team at any cost.

After discussion, the search and rescue team assessed that there is an 80% chance of success. Team members "A Jun" and "Long Chang" set off in August for a five-day rescue journey.

They each took 20 kilograms of luggage, including aerial cameras, ropes, warm clothing, etc. and set off.

Ajun said frankly that he was not familiar with the local mountain topography before departure. "It is purely based on Google Map and foreign hiking apps for reference." After arriving in the Norwegian capital of Oslo (Oslo), he still had to drive 8 hours to reach the small town of Oslo, which is adjacent to the crash site. Odda (Odda), but the weather is not good that day, still need to wait for the next day to start the mission.

Rope on the slope next to the rapids

Due to the inability to fully confirm the location of the crash, the two people speculated that the aerial camera was stuck on the tree. They spent most of the day searching the forest. They climbed the tree and found no results. Finally, they estimated that the aerial camera might fall down a slope. , 2 people decided to swim to the bottom of the slope to search, and they found traces of the aerial camera. However, there was a turbulent river tens of meters next to the slope, and the terrain was dangerous. , The two people took care of each other one after the other, proceeded cautiously, and finally rescued the aerial camera. The process was difficult, but afterwards.

When I remembered the good news to the owner, the other party was very grateful, "It's so rare to recover from the loss, and it will be a journey back from Norway!" They revealed that the expedition to Northern Europe includes air tickets, board and lodging, and the cost is about 2 Ten thousand yuan.

Two people said that the operation brought them a great sense of success. Ah Jun described the aerial search and rescue as like discovering a new map, "There are opportunities for aerial photography to fall into places that we have never been to", while staying long refers to "We I'm addicted to shop, I like to explore around." Participating in aerial search and rescue can satisfy my curiosity.

Latefossen is a waterfall located near Odda in western Norway. It is formed by two independent streams, divided by a large rock in the middle. The total height of the waterfall is about 165 meters. The scenic spot attracts many tourists every year.

The "Devil's Tongue" is located on the cliff on the Ringedalsvatnet Lake. It is about 700 meters high. It is formed by the erosion of a glacier for 10,000 years. It looks like a tongue extending into the air.
