Stranded Hiker Hangs on for Dear Life

Heartstopping video showed a woman desperately clinging to the side of a cliff; below her was a steep drop down a canyon. She was a hiker stranded on the Pacific Crest Trail in Riverside, California. It's one of the more rugged hiking trails in America. The hiker managed to send an SOS signal with the emergency device in her gear, and a rescue helicopter crew spotted her. Rescue specialist Jason Beeman was lowered within a few feet of the woman, as she strained to hang on.
