Lots of haters here... wow... JuJu - Don't worry about the jerks here. There used to be a time, where everyone would encourage the person to "dust themselves off and get out there again". I don't see anything reckless about what she did. In fact, sounds like they realized they were not making good enough time, turned around and started to go back.  Rescue personnel did what we all pay them to do. Accidents happen. Glad she is OK and hope she tries again once she is all healed up.
