I saw one miner hand out rocks. Thing is, first thing I thought was "silly bugger, that'd weigh you back down there"

Yeah the second guy was brilliant, I think they done it on purpose, the strongest guy first, then the funny guy, for morale

A great success it would seem I heard it's the longest any number of people have survived such an incident in history with no fatalities ??

Its qute amazing what they did! FIrst to find them alive. Hundreds of metres down. Then to provide them with food and entertainment, while they dig them out!

2 months to dig them out, taking all the precautions, and a rescue, like clockwork!
Amazing!

When I was watching this morning it seemed to last a lifetime and when the pod broke I could have wept for them. It was very quickly dealt with though. To think they were looking at upto Xmas down there

Like has been said many times today I'm sure, it does give you hope in humanity. Cheesy as it may sound, people DO pull together when it matters

Its true though! When the chips are down, you do see humanity give you hope. Its too bad its only usually takes something like this.

I know. It takes all sorts. Terrorism. Serious illness. Death. Disaster. When you think about it such things shouldn't happen after the horse has bolted. You should embrace stuff before.

But thats a lesson I need to learn myself too

Glad they are all out and safe, they must be so relieved. What an experience.

Hooray!!!

It's going down one more time to get the last rescuer.

They should be livestreaming that actual last man. I would be scared ****less if I was the last one.

I don't know how a group of women would have survived.
I'm quite claustrophobic it would have been a nightmare!
