"Experience the unbelievable but true account of hope, friendship, and courage that captivated an entire nation in The Pennsylvania Miners' Story. Relive every gut-wrenching, heart-rending minute of the ordeal when a close-knit group of nine coal miners accidentally punch into an old mine shaft that's holding back millions of gallons of trapped groundwater. Now tragically trapped themselves in claustrophobic four-foot-high shafts, time becomes the real enemy. As their families gather above ground, the miners must battle rising water, hypothermia, 'black damp' and the odds below- armed only with the will to survive."--Container.
