I've always wondered what people like this do mentally to pass the time every day. Five days is a long time to be stuck in a little box with little in the way of external stimuli.
Okay but why did it take five days? Nobody saw the crash until someone familiar with the area was like "hmm that truck is new?"
Edit: ah, finally watched the video and you can see it's not a normal road but pretty remote.

Worked fine for me on mobile
Strange. It still works for me.
I'm on mobile. Not sure if that's a factor.
Broken here.
When crews arrived on scene, "they found a badly damaged pickup truck and one occupant at the bottom of a 100' cliff," the department wrote.
A firefighter who was lowered down with a rope determined that the motorist was injured and had been trapped inside the truck since crashing last Tuesday near Stallion Springs, according to the department's incident report.
Three more firefighters were then lowered into the ravine and the individual, who has not been identified, was placed in a rescue basket and pulled to safety.
