Man Rescued After Spending 3 Days In London Sewers
He said he entered the sewer in Barking, & was pulled from a manhole by Police in Romford, 6 miles away.

He is thought to have wandered through the pipelines for up to 72 hours as he desperately tried to get out.
And he was only rescued after people working in nearby businesses eventually heard his pitiful cries for help coming from beneath the road.
Video footage has captured the unbelievable scene in Romford, east London, as the man was pulled out of the sewer on February 8.
Sam Palmer, a manager at Big White Cube Vehicle Hire, filmed the moment, after hearing the victim’s desperate cries for help from outside her workplace.
The first thing he said as he emerged into daylight was: “Does anyone have a fag?”
