If it's any consolation, they managed to get an IV in his leg and got him some anxiety and pain meds to make it a little easier.

If they got to him before he died, why couldn't they pull him out?

This was his situation.

There wasn't enough room to pull him out, even with pulleys. IIRC, he died within about 36 hours so there wasn't enough time to drill him out or something like that.
