In 2001, Boy Scout, Cody Clawson, got lost near Yellowstone National Park. The 13-year-old was missing for over 18 hours, sleeping in a cave. He awoke to the sound of helicopters and ran outside to signal for help. Using his belt buckle to reflect the sunlight, the rescue crew was able to locate Clawson, and when they landed, the pilot was Harrison Ford.
”He said, ‘Good morning,’ and I recognized [his voice] because he said it just like he did in ‘Star Wars,’” Clawson recounted.
This wasn’t the first rescue by Ford. Just a year prior he rescued 20-year-old hiker, Sarah George, after dehydration incapacitated her while hiking Table Mountain in Wyoming. While Ford arrived by helicopter and not his llegendary Millennium Falcon, he did touch down in style. “He was wearing a T-shirt and a cowboy hat,” George said before confessing she vomited during the flight, adding, “I can’t believe I barfed in Harrison Ford’s helicopter.”
