Man saved from Perth backyard hole after hours of being stuck in dramatic rescue attempt.
In Perth's northern suburbs, a man found himself in a bit of a predicament when he got stuck in a deep hole for over three hours. It was quite a scene as emergency services rushed to the home on Orbell Road in Hillarys after receiving a distress call around 3pm today. The man, who was 46 years old, was waist-deep in sand and unable to get out on his own.

Apparently, the hole was being dug by the man and his landlord over the past few days in search of a sewer line. They were simply trying to connect their existing pipe to the main sewer, but unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse. One of the man's legs got trapped in the sand and the rest of the ground seemed to be unstable.

As the situation became more precarious, a team of urban search and rescue crews were called in to help. They quickly set up an exclusion zone around the hole and began working on stabilizing the area to prevent it from caving in. The man's housemate explained that they were just trying to find the main sewer and split the two houses, but things didn't go as planned.

Despite the seriousness of the situation, the man remained in good spirits and even received a towel and some water from the rescue team. It was a relief when a specialist vacuum truck arrived to assist with the rescue and remove the sand. Eventually, around 6.30pm, the man was freed and taken to the hospital for assessment. Thankfully, he was in stable condition.

Meanwhile, the incident caught the attention of the media and people were following the updates closely. One news outlet even encouraged readers to join their WhatsApp channel for the latest breaking news, celebrity gossip, and sports updates. They assured that there would be no comments, algorithms, or privacy concerns. It was a convenient way to stay informed without any hassle.
