[edit] Plot
Based on the true story of baby Jessica McClure, who fell down an abandoned water well while playing one afternoon in her back yard in Midland, TX. She was stuck in the well about 20 to 30 feet down and it took rescuers 58 hours to get her out. There was fear that if they shook the earth too much with machinery they could cause Jessica to fall further down and die. Rescuers managed to successfully excavate alongside the well shaft and bring "Baby Jessica" to safety.
