“Buried Alive!”: When a student went for a long-pass during a day at the beach, he fell into a 2-metre deep hole, previously dug and abandoned. Friends rushed to his aid, but the vibrations of their steps only caused the further collapse of the sand hole. Buried beneath the sand, he suffocated. “Caved In!”: A caver is squeezed into a tiny finger deep inside an underground cave. A protruding rock acted like fish hook, allowing him to go in but not out and he was stuck, hanging upside down. A rescue team mounted a 28-hour effort, but was unable to free him before he succumbed to internal injuries. “Moscow, We Have a Problem …”: A Soviet cosmonaut is confined in a pressure chamber. Near the end of a ten-day training exercise, he carelessly causes a fire. But because the room is saturated with oxygen, help is unable to reach him before his burns become lethal.
