本文介绍了一位美国的登上爱好者阿伦罗尔斯顿。作为一名登山者，阿伦习惯于冒险。许多次，阿伦都因为事故而命悬一线。在2003年4月26日，在犹他州登山时他发现自己处在了非常危险的禁地中。那一天，当阿伦独自登山时，他的一条胳膊被压在了岩石下。他无法使自己的胳膊挣脱开来，在那儿待了五天，希望有人会发现他。但当他的水喝完时，他明白必须做些什么来拯救自己了。他用刀子切除了他的半条右臂，然后，他用左臂给自己包扎好，以免失血过多。在那之后，他爬下山去寻求帮助。在他失去胳膊之后，他写了一本叫《生死两难》的书。在这本书中，阿伦讲述了正确抉择和自我掌控命运的重要性。他对登山如此酷爱，甚至在这次断臂经历之后他还继续爬山．
