25 year old Mother rescued after Trapped for Five Days


Amber Pennell was probably not famous until last week, but the story of her rescue is amazing. This mother of two was found on August 21st after being trapped underwater for five days.

News reports everywhere mention her strong "will to live" as the main reason she is still alive. This motivation was mostly because of her two children, who were the first to people she spoke about when found.

Amber had plunged straight down a distance of approximately 80 into a ravine while traveling on the highway. Very little clues were given as to her whereabouts, but amazingly she was still found.

This is quite a miracle. She was in pretty rough shape-broken bones, hypothermia, chest injury, skull fracture. But she made it! A week later people are still talking about it.
