“In my 10 years as a rescue paramedic I had never encountered a job quite like this, it was challenging but incredibly rewarding,” Peter Watts, a paramedic with New South Wales Ambulance service, said, according to a release on the service’s social media pages.

She had already been upside down for more than an hour before rescuers arrived, her friends initial attempts to free her having been unsuccessful.

Photos shared by the ambulance service show her hanging between the boulders by her feet, as well as the complicated efforts to keep the area stable as emergency services tried to create a gap big enough to free her.
