‘A finger’s grip away from death’ Night vision footage shows dramatic rescue on Scottish cliffs

This is the dramatic moment a man was saved from certain death on Scottish cliffs earlier this week.

The victim was stuck on the vertical rock face at Seaton Cliffs, in Arbroath, and was rescued from a ‘desperate situation.’

The HM Coastguard heroes who hauled him to safety said he was “a finger’s grip away from plunging to almost certain death.”
