Canyoning death in Blue Mountains 16-Jan-2010 At 11:32:31 PM SwineOfTheTimes

Apart form being capsized in the middle of the Southern Ocean or stranded in the Tanimin, an EPIRB is not going to save your life.
What will is promt first aid. But that only depends of the extent of the injury and the knowledge of the person applying first aid.
However an EPIRB will reduce the time you, or a member of your party, spends suffering.
Personally, if I'm going to put myself in a situation that I need an EPIRB, then chances are I'll have a Sat phone too.
And I rarely wear a helmet.
