ONE minute Matilda Campbell was reaching down to try and retrieve her phone, the next she was wedged in a deep rock crevice. Stuck between two boulders, her feet were in the air, one arm was wedged to her side and the other stuck above her head. The 23-year-old Newcastle woman was to spend the next seven hours pinned in this position amid a large-scale extraction operation in bushland at Laguna on Saturday October 12.
"The day of the rescue my friend Kieanna and I had decided to go for a walk as our other friends were sleeping [at our camp site]," she told Newcastle Herald.
