Norwegian Air Force were successful in a difficult rescue of an unknown British climber after he sustaining serious injury from a fall or being hit by rocks on Norway's Troll Wall. The climber was thought to be heading for the Swedish Route when the accident occurred. Top30.es has the story, UKclimbing
has an interesting thread on the accident, in particular, a translation of a Norwegian newspaper article and a link to some video footage of the rescue.
