Woman’s horror as she spends THREE DAYS trapped in pitch darkness behind a basement wall after falling between narrow gap between houses

A young woman’s horror has been revealed after spending three days trapped in total darkness behind a basement wall after falling between a narrow gap between houses.

The unnamed 22-year-old fell between the walls of two buildings in the Russian resort city of Sochi, but it was unclear how many floors she fell, local media reported.

She was screaming for help in the dark, dank space described by authorities as a “dungeon” before she was rescued.

One of the rescuers can be seen looking over the wall into the darkness before locating the woman.

The team then heads to the wall with a pneumatic drill and sledgehammer before the dust-covered, barefoot woman emerges and uses the last of her energy to climb freely feet first.

The dust-covered, barefoot woman emerged later and used the last of her energy to free herself.

The woman leaves the enclosed space feet first with the help of rescuers.

She told her rescuers that she had called for help for three days before someone finally listened to her and she was rescued.

Russia’s Emergency Situations Ministry said in a statement: “A 22-year-old girl spent three days in a cell. It all happened in a four-story building in Sochi.

‘A local resident heard a woman’s cries for help from behind the wall and went down to the basement of the house. According to him, the victim fell from the attic and ended up between two walls of the house.

‘To reach it, employees of the search and rescue team of the southern region of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations had to dismantle part of the masonry. Rescuers handed the girl over to doctors.
