'I thought it was my death,' he told followers in a video from his hospital bed, wearing an oxygen mask. He hung over the drop until a voice from above told him a helicopter was coming. He has a broken back, broken ribs and a broken sternum.
Schrock had left his accounting career to travel the world and take photographs.
