A man who went on a massive drinking binge was finally rescued from a sewer after he was trapped there for three days.<br /><br />The store owner in front of the manhole cover was the first one to discover the man after he heard voices under the ground asking for help on November 30.<br /><br />The bike store owner in Rizal province, the Philippines, said the man let out a finger in one of the holes so he knew that the sound was definitely coming from the ground. <br /><br />The store owner asked for help from local authorities to take out the cover so the man could get out. They brought a towing truck to lift the metal cover.<br /><br />Onlooker Marc Kollin Picadizo said the rescue operation lasted for about two hours. <br /><br />He said that the man said he cannot remember why he was trapped in the first place, but he was already there for at least three days.<br /><br />Marc said: "When the ambulance came to take him, the nurses asked if he knew his name. He said he can't remember. He doesn't know how he got there."<br /><br />The man, who was not named, told paramedics he remembered getting drunk ''a few days ago'' but had no recollection of how he ended up in the sewer.<br /><br />He said: ''I think I had been drinking all day and night then I don't remember what happened. I was down there for a few days. I don't remember all of it.''<br /><br />The man was taken to hospital in the town of Binangonan where he was checked over and fed and given water before being released.
