Mechanical foreman Sanjay Sah was rescued after being trapped for nine days in a tunnel linked to a hydropower project in Nepal. Sah said he urged fellow workers to escape after the accident but could not get out himself. He spent nine days in darkness, chanting mantras and staying in contact with three or four other workers. Officials believe around 900 people remain trapped in tunnels linked to six hydropower projects along the Trishuli River. Thank you for watching our video!
