Nothing happened to me directly but there were two events during hiking where I was present. Both happened years ago.
I hiked atop a mountain with my dad, taking one path up and then another down. This path goes straight down for quite a while because it follows the cableway that transports supplies to the mountain hut at the top for most of the way. Anyway, we had been walking for quite a while when there was a sound and looking to the side, towards the trees, we found an older guy sitting on the ground, resting on a tree stump, who had broken his leg. I went back to the top as fast as I could, gathered a few guys and we went down the path.
Another time, we were hiking on the same mountain and there was still some ice on the ground which caught my dad and he twisted his ankle in a nasty way. We had already reached the bottom so it wasn't far to the car.
