Hanging by a Wire (15)

When a cable car wire snaps, eight passengers - including six schoolboys - are left dangling 900 feet above a ravine in the Himalayan foothills.

A school commute takes a terrifying turn when a cable car's wires snap, leaving eight passengers - including six schoolboys - suspended 900 feet above a ravine in the remote Himalayan foothills of northern Pakistan. 

Within hours, what begins as a local emergency rapidly becomes an international spectacle as families gather below and an ambitious rescue unfolds live on television and social media. With no margin for error and a single cable that could fail at any moment, an unlikely alliance of civilian rescuers, police, and military forces must improvise under intense public scrutiny, in a race against the clock before disaster strikes.
