A resident of Wadi Ara was killed Wednesday evening in a failed rescue attempt that ended in tragedy when cables that secured him to a military helicopter unwound and he fell to the ground from a great height (click here to watch footage of the botched attempt).

man went for a picnic in a field near Beit She'an, which was an old minefield from the period of Israeli-Jordanian hostility. helicopter rescue ,that went wrong The guy went into the minefield for a picnic with his friends, disrespecting guys just like me. I mean, come on we put those signs there for a reason. Anyway, our hero apparently stepped on an anti-personnel landmine (which usually requires about 4kg pressure, or a bit over 8 pounds), which blew his foot off.
