“Heather Friesen, 26, had a GoPro strapped to her head as she fell down the sheer rocks at the Ka’au Crater Trail, cheating death — but suffering a collapsed lung, 10 broken ribs and a fractured scapula.”

That’s odd,..I’ve never found myself in that kind of situation.

Many years of rock and ice climbing, I’ve had a couple of long drops.
But mostly used a rope to avoid that very sudden stop.
