According to The Huffington Post, All fell into a crevasse, sending him approximately 70 feet below the surface where he suffered a break in his right arm, a dislocated shoulder, a few broken ribs and internal bleeding. His face was covered in blood, also a result of injuries sustained during the fall.
Equipped with his GoPro camera, All began filming his unfortunate situation moments after the fall, unsure of whether or not he would make it out alive.
“I’m pretty well f***ed,” he says into the camera, the brutal honesty in his words make it clear that he is extremely worried.

Where some would have given up, All presses on, broken bones and all. He finds it difficult to breathe and even wonders aloud if blood is beginning to fill his lungs.
Using his ice axe and amazing determination, it took All six hours, but he successfully made his way out of the crevasse.
Once he was out, All then had to crawl his way back to his camp because he did not have a radio to call for help. Exhausted, he barely made the trek to his tent, but when he finally did, he texted for help from his satellite messenger. His teammates responded and sent a helicopter to rescue him.
