There's a Aussie in the Crevice!

"I guess he was really drunk. He tried to grab on to the tree there, to climb down, and he fell all the way to the bottom.

This from a man who witness a toasted Australian who survived a fall of nearly 30 meters into a ravine.

The beyond tipsy Aussie clamored onto a rail near a ravine in an effort to find a place to break his beer cherry.

Branches slowed his fall all the way down and the fire department somehow got him back up.

Capt. Rick Matsen says there was no question that the man was inebriated.

"Well, it just so happens he had a beer with him when he was brought up."

"Still in his hands?" asked a reporter.

"Still in his hands, yup. He held on to it pretty tight, I'm thinking."
