Rebirth in the face of death

Jiang Yuhang regards the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake as his rebirth and something to treasure in his life.

His survival was seen by many as a miracle. The then-19-year-old intern at the Yingxiu highway administration spent 124 hours trapped under the rubble of a six-story building in Yingxiu township, Sichuan province, near the quake's epicenter, and he could smell the bodies of his dead colleagues nearby.

Ten years later, he still clearly remembers catching glimpses of the orange uniforms of the firefighters in the rescue team through the cracks in the debris that separated him from safety.
