There are many people in the world who love mountaineering, i.e. climbing mountains. Because of this, people often go for adventure sports like trekking. But in many such sports, accidents also become big. Due to which people suffer a lot. Recently, a similar incident happened with hundreds of mountaineers (Tourists stuck on mountain at 3700 feet) in China, when they remained hanging at a height of 3700 feet for about an hour. His life was in danger, but no one came to save him. You will be surprised to know what happened next.
According to the report of The Sun website, this case is from Zhejiang province of China. Here people were climbing Yandang Mountain. But suddenly the line of tourists going up stopped. A person had posted a video of this incident on Chinese social media. He told that they were stuck there for 1 hour (Tourist stuck for 1 hour on mountain). No one is moving from their place. Although he did not tell how high it was, but the mountain is 3773 feet high.

Because of this people were hanging in the air
The management of Yandang Mountain Rock Climbing Attraction said that there were too many people, due to which it took time to rescue them. May Day is celebrated in China between May 1 and May 5, which is a holiday. Because of this the number of tourists was high. There were so many tourists at the peak that everyone could not fit on top. Those going up were not able to come down and those going down were not able to go up. To fix this, people were stopped from going up, and only when the people at the top came down, the crowd dispersed.
Management admitted that they made a mistake
The surprising thing is that any person attempting this climb, who is feeling scared, can come down at any time with the help of a professional. But a fee has to be paid for rescue, due to which many people thought it better to save money and hang on. The management told that the fee for rescue has been imposed because many people had started doing this, that they used to go up some distance for fun, and then resort to rescue to come down. He didn’t even go all the way up. The management said that they had misjudged the number of people who were interested in climbing the mountain. Apart from this, lack of better traffic control system and absence of ticket reservation system were the reasons for this hindrance.
