SURVIVE FROM EARTHQUAKE BY SAWING OFF OWN LEG.
When I watch headline news on MetroTV, I saw very sad news. There is an 18-year-old construction worker named Ramlan from Purwakarta, West Java trapped in the rubble of a building that collapsed during the earthquake in West Sumatra escaped after sawing off his own leg. Ramlan, was working on the seventh floor of a building under construction when the quake hit the city on 30 September.
The teenager’s leg was crushed beneath a falling concrete girder as he and his colleagues were attempting to flee the building, leaving him trapped and alone. Ramlan attempted to pull his leg free so he could escape to safety, but found himself trapped. He was able to reach a hoe, and began to hack at his leg, but the blade was too blunt to penetrate the bone.
Fortunately, his mobile phone had survived undamaged, and ramlan was able to telephone his friend and colleague Eman, who returned to the building to help. Eman, 53, located a trowel, and handed it to Ramlan, who continued to hack at the crushed limb, but again found he could not penetrate the bone. Eman then found him a saw, and Ramlan began to saw through his leg, but was too weak to continue. Then Eman carrying Ramlan to the Yos Sudarso Hospital for the furthermore treatment
