On March 15, 2021, members of Magic Valley Paramedics Special Operations Rescue Team (SORT) saved two people and their two dogs from inside a Ford F-350 truck hanging precariously over the 100-foot Malad Gorge in Idaho. The 67-year-old male driver and his 64-year-old wife were suspended within their seat belts looking straight down into the gorge, their pickup having gone over a bridge while hauling a 30-foot camping trailer. The only thing keeping the truck from falling into the deep canyon and the occupants likely suffering fatal injuries upon impact was the safety chain attached to the trailer. The trailer lay on its side on the bridge, acting as an anchor.
