He explained that the bike rider was spotted by passers-by, who were able to give the emergency room an idea of ​​his whereabouts.

And he was talking to our firefighting team via his Apple Watch "while he was clinging to a branch of a tree, which worked great for us to get to it as quickly as possible."

"Even with the help of passers-by, it took us 20 minutes to locate, rescue, and bring him to safety. This is not the first time that a person's life has been reported with the help of the Apple Watch," he added.
