Engineering Feat: Two Men Successfully Extracted From Nation-Building Project
Two men, now regrettably un-embedded, emerge from the Upper Trishuli 3A hydropower plant.

In a stunning display of human perseverance and the indomitable spirit of infrastructure, two Nepali gentlemen have been triumphantly extracted from a partially completed tunnel at the Upper Trishuli 3A hydropower plant, nine days after being accidentally re-incorporated into its load-bearing structure. An Australian engineer, whose precise role was vaguely defined as 'advising the effort' — a term known in international development circles to mean 'standing nearby looking important' — confirmed the liberation, praising the innovative 'less concrete, more human extraction' technique employed. Critics, however, are now questioning whether the plant's structural integrity could be compromised by the sudden reintroduction of negative space where the workers previously resided. Sources close to the project, speaking on condition of anonymity, suggested that the incident was merely a 'protracted field test' of the tunnel's natural ventilation system and that the two workers, now miraculously free, were primarily concerned about missing their shift breaks. Plans are already underway to market the 'nine-day tunnel diet' as a revolutionary weight-loss program, sponsored by regional cement manufacturers.
