Jan 25, 2011  Video clip of the Incredible Aron Ralston, taken while trapped in Blue John Canyon. *From the NBC Dateline special about his survival* Shot, while trapped, in Blue John Canyon in May, 2003.

Best Answer: There is in fact 'real footage' or Aron Ralson's incident. He had the small video camera with him when he fell. He is not releasing the footage to the public. Only close family and friends have been allowed to see it, as well as James Franco and the director of 127 Hours. He says it is to personal and extremely difficult to view.

He watched it with his parents some time later, and after his mother saw what had happened to him in such a short time, he promised her he wouldn't show it to anybody else, especially the public. It is currently kept in a bank vault for security. The the small video camera used in the movie 127 Hours, is actually the real one used by Aron when he fell. Hope this could help.
