Survival Stories

Paige Dean, 11, was listening to the radio in her grandparents' car when she accidentally disengaged the hand brake and the vehicle began to roll. Paige jumped out just before the car plunged 250 feet over a cliff in North Wales and landed in the sea below. She suffered only minor cuts and scrapes in the Aug. 15 incident.
