The Magic Cafe Forums - China miner found alive after 17 years underground

Too bad the story isn't true. World News Daily is a self-proclaimed fake news site:

Quote:

Is it true, per a report circulating on the Internet today, that a coal miner was found alive in an abandoned mine in western China after being trapped undergound for 17 years?

Uh, no. It didn't happen. The report comes from a notorious purveyor of fake news, World News Daily Report, which states quite clearly on its disclaimer page:

"All news articles contained within worldnewsdailyreport.com are fiction, and presumably fake news. Any resemblance to the truth is purely coincidental, except for all references to politicians and/or celebrities, in which case they are based on real people, but still based almost entirely in fiction."

For what it's worth, a couple of years ago a Chinese miner actually was found alive after being trapped underground in a coal mine — for 17 days.
