Here's the Plot for your Next Claustrophobic Thriller

NewsDaily: Chile secures lifeline to trapped miners still alive: "In what relatives dubbed a miracle, the miners on Sunday tied a note to a perforation drill that has carved a shaft the size of a grapefruit down to the refuge they are sheltered in 2,300 ft vertically underground.

Rescue workers now plan to use the tiny bore hole to send plastic tubes containing glucose, hydration gels and food down to the miners to keep them alive while they dig a new shaft to extract them -- which could take up to four months."
