    Dog survives 450ft fall

    A Jack Russell terrier had a miraculous escape after chasing a rabbit over a 450ft cliff.

    Owner Martin Coombes saw six-year-old Russett fly over the edge after the rabbit did a U-turn at the edge, says the Sun.

    A coastguard spotted the dog's motionless body though binoculars, on the rocks below Tennyson Down, at Freshwater, Isle of Wight.

    But despite falling nearly twice the height of Nelson's Column, Russett merely had concussion, a cut lip and a bruised paw.

    Martin, 51, said: "When the radio message came back that he was OK I couldn't believe it."
