Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
When Aron successfully breaks his arm, and he spends several seconds yelling in triumph.
Aron walking free of the canyon, getting help from a hiking family, and watching the rescue helicopter arrive, with Sigur Ros's "Festival" belting out over it all.
Also a somewhat grotesque Crowning Moment of Funny: The climax of the film, when Aron succeeds in cutting his own arm off in order to escape from under the boulder that's trapped him for five days. He staggers a few steps away...and then he stops, turns around, pulls out his camera, and snaps a picture of it before leaving for good. Exhausted from fighting to stay alive for five days, starving and dangerously dehydrated, just finished wrapping up his new bloody stump so he'll have a shot at surviving the trek back out, and he still stops for a souvenir picture of the rock that almost killed him. The feeling of triumph in that moment is almost indescribable.
Made even more awesome by the fact, that this actually happened. This photo exists.
Not quite as spectacular, but his method of getting his knife back after dropping it out of reach is a great early sign of his ingenuity.
