Tough being in the woods by yourself, a slip can break an ankle, and you will have a tough time getting anywhere.

Although there are stories about someone who broke their leg, or had an arm mauled off by a bear who made a split or tourniquet and dragged themselves for several miles through the woods.

That’s when you start firing shots into the air every hour or so. You’re screwed when you run out of arrows, though.

What about the guy who got his arm (or leg?) stuck between some rocks, and cut it off to get out?

Don’t forget the guy that cut his arm off to get out from under a boulder.
