Cable Car and Occupants Dangling 900 Feet Over Ravine

Newser-

“For God’s sake help us,” is the desperate plea of an adult stuck in a cable car dangling over a 900-foot ravine in Pakistan. Eight people, including six kids ages 10 to 16, set out around 7am local time to cross the Allai valley to head to school when one of the two cables suspending the car snapped. It took four hours for a helicopter to reach the scene in Battagram, but army rescue efforts so far have proved unsuccessful. Local law enforcement tells the BBC that four helicopters have been unable to extract the passengers, though they have been able to get food and water to them….

Update: They have been rescued.
