A 19-year-old teenager was rescued after getting stuck beneath the catwalk of Foresthill Bridge, California's tallest bridge, while attempting a stunt. The teenager was suspended from a rope that failed, leaving him unable to pull himself back up. His friend called 911 for help, and after an hour and fifteen minutes, he was successfully hoisted up and onto the catwalk by a specialized rescue team.
