Miners Todd Russell, left, and Brant Webb, center, take their first steps above ground after spending two weeks trapped nearly a kilometer (3,000 feet) underground in the Beaconsfield Gold Mine at Beaconsfield, Australia, Tuesday, May 9, 2006. After initial medical tests underground, Webb, 37, and Russell, 34, strode purposefully from the mine's main lift shaft and hugged family and friends before clambering into two ambulances, still laughing and joking with friends.
