Default near fall

I went out the other day to hang some stands with a friend of mine. I was useing my climber to get up the tree and then pull up a hang on and attach it to the tree. When i was most of the way up the bottom plat form slipped and dropped two feet . Not enough to tighten the fall harness tether strap buti banged the hell out of my left arm on the seat and pulled a muscle in my neck.this got me thinking as to what do you do if you did fall out of your stand and your hanging there ? I don't know if i would of had the strength to pull myself back up to the seat orwhat if there is no standthere to get back on ? I want to be prepared in the event there is a timethat it could have been worse. Whatwould you guys do if you are hanging by your harness ?
