British man rescued after six days in Bali well

A British man who fell into a well on the Indonesian island of Bali has been rescued after six days.

Jacob Roberts, 29, broke his leg after falling into the 4m-deep well in Pecatu village while being chased by a dog, said AFP quoting local authorities. The well was dry but his leg meant he was unable to get out. Witnesses say there was a small amount of water in the well which likely kept him alive.The resident had been looking for cattle feed near the area, which was in an isolated part of the village, said news outlet the Bali Sun. He alerted the local authorities."He looked thin and injured," South Kuta police chief Yusak Agustinus Sooai said of Mr Roberts' condition when he was found on Saturday.

Local search and rescue chief Gede Darmada said Mr Roberts was lifted out of the well in a stretcher by three men, according to the local search and rescue agency, Basarnas Bali.

Probably safer down the well...

And we're sending our love down the well 🎶

Extreme self isolating! Hope he recovers and stays on in Bali. Better off than UK.

Did Sting rescue him?

All’s well that ends well

Pecatu village, Nusa Dua is literally the farthest south you can go in Bali. Definitely not the north. I always wonder when such basic facts are incorrect, are you checking the important ones?

Happy for him, but I couldn't resist messing with the headline: British man well; rescued after trapped in Bali for six days.

I’m glad he’s well. How was he trapped exactly?

no worry brit's balinesse will take care of him and British consulate Gen in Bali already responded for insurance cost, etc

Let’s hope he has medical insurance

I Bali well hope he’s OK.
