Despite growing fears about Japan's nuclear situation, dramatic video showing the rescue of an 80-year-old woman and her grandson is giving hope to people around the world.
Video released Sunday by Grassroots news TV shows an older woman wrapped in blankets being airlifted above the rubble by helicopter.
In the nine days since the devastating March 11 earthquake, the woman, Sumi Abe, and her grandson, Jin Abe, 16, were unable to pull themselves out of their earthquake-ravaged home and lived off of yogurt stored in their refrigerator, according to reports. The grandson was finally able to flag down rescue workers from the rooftop of their house.
