A real life rescue on the harbour wall, the streets in St Ives are very narrow so I don't think an ambulance could get close enough, very exciting and you realise the precision of these guys hats off to a successful rescue....

Wow, I'm always amazed at the skills of helicopter pilots and their operatives when responding to things like this. The same goes for all those that do this type of risky job daily, be it land, air or sea :tu: :salute:
