A 13-year-old tourist from North Dakota reportedly survived a nearly 100-foot fall at the Grand Canyon.
Wyatt Kauffman, of Casselton, North Dakota, told KPNX that the incident happened at the North Rim on Tuesday as he was “up on the ledge and was moving out of the way so other people could take a picture.”
“I squatted down and was holding on to a rock. I only had one hand on it,” Kauffman said to the station from his hospital bed. “It wasn’t that good of a grip. It was kind of pushing me back. I lost my grip and started to fall back.”
