SAR is not a way to make money, SAR saves lives, probably this #IdiotInTheBackcountry is one of them

A woman being rescued after falling on a hike is going to receive $450,000 for her injuries after the rescue basket she was in started spinning while she was being hoisted into a helicopter.
The line, used to stop baskets from spinning broke. The woman spun for 40 seconds until the spinning was under control.
She allegedly suffered $290K in medical bills from the spinning.
Why Is This Interesting?
From the spinning for from the fall. Her injuries were a spinal code injury. Would you be more likely to receive an injury falling off a trail or from lying flat in a basket that was spinning?
If she needed evacuated because of her injuries from a fall hiking don’t you suspect those were the worse injuries she could receive?
