For six days, army soldier Hanamanthappa Koppad was buried under 25 feet of ice at the Siachen Glacier, in temperatures close to minus 40 degrees. Late last night, a rescue team that had been chipping away at ice for days, found him in an "arctic tent" and was astonished to feel a faint pulse. He was put on a rescue chopper that took off from the highest helipad on earth, on the Saltoro ridge of Siachen.
