Chilian miners rescued

Post by VulcanDriver »

Well done to the engineers who have reached the trapped miners. Now to get them up in the rescue cage, that will take a week to get them all up. Great news.

Doesn't one of those guys have his wife AND his girlfriend waiting up top for him??

He should probably stay down there for a while longer.

If he's got any sense, he'll have spent the last 60 odd days tunnelling out the other side of the mountain. :wink:
