one week in july she decided it would be nice to visit them it was almost the last choice she ever made it was a beautiful day when she set out from portland in her white jeep patriot angela had only the hundreds and hundreds of miles of highway ahead to keep her company it was a long drive but at least the trip would offer some breathtaking views along the way angela could put her camera to good use the most beautiful and dangerous part of the drive came when angela passed through the big sur the highway ran along the california coast with the pacific ocean only a cliffside away angela only remembered fragments of what happened next the only thing that's clear was that a small animal darted out in the middle of the winding road she swerved to avoid it she lost consciousness as her car tore through the guardrail and plummeted 250 feet to the ocean below it began to sink could anyone survive such a crash when angela awoke water already filled up her vehicle up to her knees and its level was rising she grabbed a multi tool she kept inside smashed through the side window and crawled out to the beach bloody and battered she rolled over on the shore she sustained injuries all over her body and her shoes were missing her feet ached as she clambered up the rocks to escape the incoming tide and get some rest once angela got her bearing she saw that there was no way back up to the highway or even a clear path along the beach she needed to signal for help but first she had more pressing needs incredible thirst overtook her so angela rummaged through her washed up car for supplies she came across a black hose that had fallen out and figured it could be useful she then found a mossy rock on the cliffside that dropped a bead of water every couple seconds angela attached one end of the hose to the rock and drain angela spent hours trying to flag down a car from the road above but she was too far down and the cars were going too fast days passed by of course police were searching for angela after her family reported that she never showed up but with so much ground to cover along the california coast it was like looking for a needle in a haystack the week after the crash chad and chelsea moore were hiking along the coast when they noticed something strange at the base of the cliff it appeared to be a wrecked car they found their way down to the beach to investigate chad and chelsea were busy gathering items that must have come from the car when they heard a cry for help they ran over to some nearby rocks where they found angela the week she was still alive cell service wasn't great in the big sur but chad and chelsea were fortunately able to reach emergency services they stayed with her and did what they could until a medical team arrived after first responders airlifted angela to a nearby hospital they worked to haul the debris up the cliff by crane although the first cable snapped they managed to lift the jeep back up all told angela endured a brain hemorrhage four broken ribs a shattered collar bone a collapsed lung and ruptured blood vessels in both eyes lucky for her she made a full recovery angela now feels like she has a new lease on life and she's held on to various items from her car to remind herself how blessed she is not many other people would have survived the crash let alone lasted on the beach for a week after angela says that the incident convinced her that there is indeed a bigger purpose in her life she makes sure to save her every moment and spend as much time as possible with the ones she loves
