Preston Rogers:
Look, I need to tell you something. I wasn't always in this wheelchair. About six months ago, my... wife and I went climbing on Suicide Rock. It was a routine climb, we'd done it a dozen times. Only this time was different. This time the cable that was supporting us snapped, and my wife fell about a thousand feet to her death. I hit the face of the rock and I... got a lucky bounce and I landed on a narrow precipice. Took 'em about four hours to airlift me out of there. I didn't wanna be alive anymore. I couldn't understand why I had lived and she had died, and other than that... time, that moment, when that cable snapped and I was falling through all of that empty space, tonight is the scariest night of my life.I'm scared to death right now.
Amanda:
Me too.
Preston Rogers:
I mean, that means that we're alive. That means that we wanna live. I was given a gift that day. And I don't know why. I mean, it was a miracle that I lived. And I'm gonna do everything in my power to make sure that I don't waste that gift.
