LONDON (AP) - Authorities say a man and his dog survived a 200-foot (60-meter) fall down a remote cliff face in southern England.

 

Coast guards say the man's car went over a cliff near the town of Swanage early Sunday morning.

 

Local police believe the man was thrown clear of his vehicle when it fell halfway down the 400-foot (120-meter) cliff.

 

They say the man was found barely conscious near the crumpled wreckage of his vehicle. The car had crashed onto a large ledge on the cliff face. Both the man's legs were broken.

 

The coast guards say the man's dog, a black New Zealand sheepdog named Zin Zan, could not be found. The dog later made its own way home and was discovered underneath the kitchen table.

 

Man's best friend? "Zin Zan--I'm trapped. Go get help boy. Thattaboy! Get some help" ... :)

 

I think the dog may be the prime suspect. He did the crime and then ran home to hide under the kitchen table!.....
