A HUGE crowd gathers to witness the escape attempt...

Spectators look at the grave up close- it's six feet, straight down!

Phil is handcuffed and climbs into the coffin...

A team of audience volunteers lowers the coffin into the earth...

The grave is filled in. A spectator, watching from up close, verifies that there is no early movement from the coffin.

After 14 minutes...

A hand is seen emerging from the earth!!!

Phil struggles his way to freedom!

Phil Dalton has now become one of only a handful of people EVER to survive being BURIED ALIVE!!!
