Abstract

A healthy 33-y-old man was hiking with 2 friends in the Spanish Pyrenees during the summer. In the early afternoon, he reached the high point of the hike (2400 m). Suddenly, he heard a boom and felt something hit his left shoulder. He was unconscious for a few seconds. When he awoke, he was rolling down a slope. He seemed to be paralyzed. He stopped at a flat spot about 15 m below the high point. A few seconds later, he smelled burnt clothing. He was then able to make limited movements and called for help.
