A hiker was saved in a dramatic helicopter rescue after falling about 10 meters off a trail in Scenic Rim, Queensland.
He is believed to have fallen between five and ten meters on Saturday and suffered shoulder injuries.
The man and three friends were forced to spend the night on the mountain with lifeguards who had hiked to their location due to poor weather conditions.
The other uninjured hikers were also flown to safety in another rescue helicopter.
