BAD GROUND IS THE REAL STORY OF MINERS TODD RUSSELL
AND BRANT WEBB AND THEIR DELIVERANCE FROM ENTOMBMENT
IN THE DEPTHS OF THE  BEACONSFIELD HARD-RICK MINE.
BUT THE AFTERSHOCK OF THE SEISMIC EVENT THAT TRAPPED
THEM AFFECTED THE CLOSEKNIT MINING COMMUNITY JUST
AS PROFOUNDLY. FAMILY, FRIENDS, FELLOW MINERS AND
RESCUERS: THIS US ALSO THE STORY OF THOSE WHO WORKED
DESPERATELY AGAINST THE CLOCK AND AGAINST ALL ODDS TO

WHO GRIEVED, AND OF THOSE WHO NEVER STOPPED BELIEVING.

TONY WRIGHT WAS THERE COVERING THE STORY AS IT

HUMANITY TO BE FOUND IN THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF MEN
