A hiker’s GoPro captured the insane moment she plunged down a 50-foot waterfall in Hawaii. Heather Friesen, 26, an American beach volleyball player was hiking Ka’au Crater Trail in Hawaii with friends in 2016 when she slipped and fell into fast-flowing water below. Footage of the ordeal has just been released. She broke 10 ribs, suffered a collapsed lung, and fractured her shoulder blade after losing her footing. Friesen had turned her GoPro camera on moments before she fell. #InsideEdition

Hiker’s Terrifying Fall From Hawaii Cliff Captured on GoPro
That's higher than you think
Her fault. Clearly. Dooon't step to the edge of a waterfall….Duh. Atleast someone was there to help.
Lol
Thank God she's alive.
But being that close to the edge and knowing that it's watery, I just can't understand that. An advice to all, Lets be alert on any adventure since its supposed to be fun!
Its easier said than done because i had fallen head on a submerged rock and broken my tooth and it pierced my lips so from then on i take every caution in the world when walking on slippery areas. I have learned from my mistake of not being careful when in nature.
Just take this shortcut advise and be safe!
Glad someone found her
101 never step on damp rocks around water…
You just can’t fix stupid.
She stepped right in the water, inches from the edge on slickrock. Low IQ…
So as a hiker if you see a cliff with a stream that's constantly hitting a rock never step on that wet surface you will slip just like this lady here. If it was dry she would be a okay but she was still a bit too close
Oh man her scream after the fall truly was terrifying. She is VERY lucky to be alive and just fine not being crippled. Now I understand why we have all the warnings near places like that not to get close. It's because of American tourists.
I almost heard a death rattle on her trying to call for help. I use to volunteer for hospice and geriatric care so I’m a bit sensitive to the rattle.
Age of a 26 year old, speech of a 19 year old, mind of a 12 year old. Got it
She took it like such a champ tho good for her
Darwin is right again…and again…and again.
Man this was hard to watch
She is still faaaalllllling!!!! She's falling at 10 feet per second. (3 m/s)
Why go so close to the edge in the first place . Smh.
10 broken ribs ouch! I’ve had two and yeah breathing is no picnic coughing or sneezing will feel like a knife penetrating you can’t imagine what 10 must feel like ugh. Living on the edge comes with a toll
Lmao what did she think would happen? Gangstas paradise choir would start playing and a angel catches her in thin air? Lmaooooooo
That's why u don't stand on edge
this remind of the skydiver with parchute when fell off wrong from a cliff
the guy moaning of the pain
