    A bloke got stuck in a 1ft-wide sewer pipe after climbing into it "for no apparent reason".<\/p>\n

    Rescue workers had to spend seven hours cutting Evgeny Titov free from the 30-centimetre-wide drainage pipe in a car park at Pulkovo Airport in St Petersburg.<\/p>\n

    The 21-year-old had travelled to Saint Petersburg to visit a friend, but claims he does not remember why he got into the pipe.<\/p>\n

    Evgeny, from Zhigulyovsk, Samara Oblast, managed to crawl 12 metres along the pipe, before getting stuck and calling for help.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    The rescue operation involved cutting the tarmac, digging a six-metre-deep hole, and disassembling the sewer pipe to free the shirtless man.<\/p>\n

    He was taken to the intensive care ward of a local hospital to be treated for hypothermia and then later transferred to another department.<\/p>\n

    Law enforcement agencies believe he was intoxicated at the time of the incident, but Evgeny denies this.<\/p>\n

    Authorities had considered him a missing person after he left his home for nearby Tolyatti by car and then left for Saint Petersburg by train several days ago.<\/p>\n

    Local media reported that he may be financially liable for the damage his actions caused.<\/p>\n

    In November last year Brit, George Linnane, 38, spent 54 hours trapped underground after he broke his leg, jaw and ribs in a fall after going caving with a group.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    It took around 300 volunteers and one of the longest cave rescues in UK history – more than two days – to save him.<\/p>\n

    Despite also suffering a dislocated clavicle, lacerated spleen, collapsed lung, and a broken scaphoid in his wrist, the engineer from Bristol was keen to get back underground again saying caving was part of who he is.<\/p>\n
