SAR Team Finds Man Who Fell 400 Feet Off Cliff Thanks To Cellphone
The Montrose Search and Rescue Team has rescued a man after he fell 400 feet down a canyon near the Angeles Crest Highway where the man's iPhone 14, informed the rescuers where the man was at, thanks to the SOS feature on the phone.

Great work to the SAR team for responding to the SOS feature on the iPhone in order to help and rescue the man. One thing I love about the iPhone 14 is the Emergency SOS feature where you can text for help when there is no wifi or cellular data. We hope the man recovers well. Please be safe out there!
