Can i summon followers to me?

I know i can warp to them, but I have one trapped in sightless pit. You fall in and they will not follow you on your suicide jumps once inside.
So I need to pull them out and couldnt find the command anywhere.

thanks

Try the below. This is from a response I had gotten once when my follower got lost.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two ways that I know of. First is to console magic your missing follower towards you:
Open up the console and type in:
prid B9986
moveto player
This will place Marcurio at your feet. (Tip: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=2849 bat files can simply this process)

If you just want to recruit a new follower and don't care about your old one. Type this in the console:
Set playerfollowercount to 0
This will enable you to recruit a new follower which will automatically fire your old one.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I did the latter of the two and it worked. Only piece of warning about setting the player count to zero was that I did eventually run across my old follower back at his normal spot but could no longer recruit him for a second go around.

You could try leaving the dungeon, then waiting an game hour or two, then fast traveling somewhere.

Followers always follow on fast travel, they are also different, Lydia follow close so she will jump down holes and simlar with you Aela the huntress will not as she keep longer distance.

I had this. I went into a Tavern waited 2-3 days and she freed herself and came to me. I think it`s a reset thing.

As long as you haven`t told her to wait this is what will happen.

If you told her to wait, she`ll just go back to her default starting place after 3 days or so.

How true. I jumped down a pit in some dungeon (oh, that one near Labyrinthian) yesterday (no other way to proceed) and Aela had to cool her heels while I finished the dungeon. Other times I'll leap down, thinking there's no possible route otherwise, and look who comes running up from some corridor that I'm approaching? Aela. What baffles me when she does this is how she evaded all the hostiles.

I'm baffled as well, my followers have done this same thing. Arriving with full health I might add.
