AP, ASPEN, Colo: Aron Ralston, the Colorado adventurer who amputated his arm to escape from a remote canyon, is going Hollywood.
Ralston appears Wednesday on the NBC game show "Minute to Win It" and attends the Academy Awards on Sunday.
A movie about his ordeal, "127 Hours," has been nominated for six Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Actor.
Ralston cut off his right arm after it became pinned under a boulder in a Utah canyon in 2003. He feared he wouldn't be found and would die there if he didn't get free.
The Aspen Times reports Ralston is donating his winnings from the game show to the Wilderness Workshop, a Colorado conservation group.
Ralston's episode has already been taped, but he says he can't reveal how much he won until it airs.
