Rescue teams from Calderdale and Kirklees joined forces to save a man from a 40-foot ravine.
The victim was unconscious at the foot of the rock face in Queensbury when the alarm was raised at noon on Sunday.
Fire crews from Brighouse, Halifax, Illingworth and Cleckkeaton joined paramedics, police and Calder Valley Mountain Rescue Team to save the man, rigging up ropes and lines to get helpers into the ravine. The man was airlifted to hospital in a “poorly” condition by the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
The rescue took two hours and fire officer Toby May said: “It was a great example of agencies working together”.
