Footage has emerged from Nepal showing the moment rescue workers were able to dig out the body of a man trapped under rubble following the massive earthquake that hit the mountainous nation on Saturday.

In the video, the barely conscious man is seen being pulled out through a tiny gap on Sunday night after spending 24 hours trapped under the debris of the building that collapsed in the Kathmandu Valley over the weekend.

Another 66 were killed across the border in India and at least another 20 in Tibet, China's state news agency said.

The earthquake that was measured at 7.9 Richter Scale and is said to be the worst to have hit Nepal since 1934.

It is still believed that thousands are still missing, with reports yesterday suggesting that this figure could include at least 50 Britons.

The earthquake has led to tens of thousands being left homeless.

Many, including the injured, were believed to have slept in the open once again on Sunday night as hospitals became overwhelmed by the sheer volume of people requiring medical attention and hospital beds.

Speaking to the LA Times Tamdim Dorjee, a Katmandu resident said: “No one is sleeping indoors. All the buildings are empty. All the people are out on the football grounds and other open spaces.

It is reported that the avalanche killed at least 22 climbers and is said to be the single worst disaster to ever hit the world's highest mountain.
