Irina Fedorovskaya and her son Egor Shesterikov are on their way to Los Angeles from the United Kingdom to see Taylor Swift perform on Thursday. "It's the only reason we came," Shesterikov explained.

They went hiking on Sunday afternoon to visit a waterfall but got confused up and got lost as the sun sank.With no water or food, Shesterikov decided to phone 911, but the call was unsuccessful due to the lack of mobile reception in the forest.

However, because he had an iPhone 14, he was able to send an Emergency SOS, which sends a text message to first responders via satellite.

"Not many people know about it," Mike Leum of the Los Angeles County Search and Rescue team stated. "I didn't know anything about it until we started getting these rescues."

According to Leum, the technology allowed rescuers to see exactly where the mother and son were, enabling for a two-hour rescue.A rescue would have taken much longer without the satellite 911 data.

"It would have been a day or two before we got to cover the area where they were actually found," Leum explained to Eyewitness News.
