American cave explorer Mark Dickey surfaced after a health scare while exploring a Turkish cave on Tuesday, after more than a week of being trapped 1,000 meters (over 3,000 feet) below ground.
Mr. Dickey, 40, was safely extracted from Morca Cave in Turkey at around 12:37 a.m. local time on Sept. 12, the Turkish Caving Federation said. He was transported to the hospital an hour later by helicopter.
