You have my vote.

TC, many years ago while guiding on Mt Blanc a friend took a major leader fall that broke his ankle in 3 places. A long night with no rescue on a 9 inch ledge 400m above the bergschrund. We had to abseil 400m both back to The Mer de Glace . Then carry drag him 3 km to a mountain hut. We were picked up by a Lama helicopter. Question to you would you have got in the helicopter ??
