'Goodbye to life': Apple Watch rescued a New Jersey resident after falling off a cliff
A man from New Jersey claims to have survived in the mountains after a terrible fall from a cliff only because he had an Apple Watch on his hand.
Last week in Middletown, James Prudenciano and Page Paruso got lost while hiking in Hartshorn Woods Park. After that, they happened to fly from a steep cliff, writes New York Post.
When it began to get dark, the couple decided to go down the mountainside, hoping to land on the ground. But soon the lost ones realized that under them there were only stones and the Naviesink river.
“I looked down and saw it - it’s a direct fall on stones and into the water,” said 28-year-old Prudenciano.
After that, Paruso jumped into the river and exclaimed that she had not received serious injuries.
But Prudenciano landed on a rock and broke his back in three places.
“I really felt like I was going to die,” he said. - I considered the situation hopeless. Because literally said goodbye to life. "
It was at that moment that the Apple Watch automatically dialed 911.

The Apple Watch (later than the Series 4) has a feature that, on occasion, determines whether its owner has experienced a serious fall. And then she asks if he wants to call the rescue service.
If the user does not move for more than a minute, the watch automatically dials 911 and sends the latitude and longitude coordinates of the place where the owner of the watch is.
Soon, police reported that they had rescued a couple from the river in a boat and drove both to a medical center. Now Prudenciano and Paruso treat their injuries there.
