We received harrowing video of a toddler in China who fell nearly 40 feet into an abandoned dry well. The 2-year-old was rescued by firefighters who had to pump oxygen into the well because the air was so thin at the depth the child was located. The dramatic episode brought back memories of the incredible rescue of Baby Jessica here in the U.S.
In the late 1950's, a very similar situation occured in Kapuskasing ON, Canada.
Amazing rescue considering the equipment used back then.
The little girl is now a grown woman with adult children. Only a few men left from the original crew.
Amazing reunion occured a few years ago....would be great if Joanne, Jessica and this latest lil' person were all brought together to show that when it comes to kids and stunning rescues, not a lot has changed in 60+ years.
Thanks to all who have ever helped saved another soul.....
IWhat a lovely sentiment; one I agree with wholeheartedly.
I cannot believe that it has been 25 years since the baby Jessica saga.
Wow.
Heck, shove Steve Jobs body down there if it will get the kid out.... Good job!
BARK BARK BARK
sound like a dog but good job firemen
Believe me. The vast majority of Americans would like to see Sarah Palin fall down a well.
Obsessed much?
I thought she did...
I wouldn't mind if she fall down on my bed at night....
...well...
How can you not feel good for such tiny miracles…
I went for my physical today and the doctor stuck his finger up my Palin.
He must have been checking for your brain. And the search goes on...
What a miracle! These men were so brave

Q: What did the Chinese kid say when he fell into a deep hole filled with water?
A: "Oh, well..."
Don't quit you day job..... 😉
It would have worked better if you had said "What did Mao Tse Tung say when he heard that a Chinese child fell down a well?"
Because allegedly Mao didn't care about individuals in his society, just the overall populace.
Just trying to help.
Montanan, I liked your joke.
I once fell into a well. Lucky for me, I am morbidly obese, thus could not fit into the well shaft.
Well and toilet are two different things...
WELL--–Now that sounds like a pretty deep subject.
Well, this is true....
Man who go to bed with itchy bum will wake up with smelly finger.
Obama's Fault.
