IIRC the rescues started ending at about 8 something EDT. And (again IIRC) there was a minimum of ten minutes between exits.

8 am eastern?
I mean when the last of the 4 came out.

It could have been as late as 10am EST for the last. But there's the picture of the four being carried by stretchers all at one time to the helicopters.
The shut down of the press area means we didn't see them come out, and then there's the definition of coming out because just getting to the dry part of the cave where they could walk out (or be helped walking out) could also be the time of emerging.
With the intelligent use of the tallent they have, I'd expect they started replenishing the air tanks along the exit almost immediately.

So could be any hour now they start back again. But takes them like 6 hrs to get to them right?
Posted on 7/8/18 at 8:01 pm to Tiger Ryno
Correct
Posted on 7/8/18 at 8:02 pm to Tiger Ryno
Its been 20-22 hours since the last 2 came out. Not sure what they are waiting on to start again, or maybe they have and no one knows since the media isn't allowed (rightfully so)

Media keeps saying 'replenishing oxygen tanks'. I doubt they're using compressed oxygen for several reasons. Don't they mean cpmresse3d air?

Takes 6 hours for a diver to get to the kids. They likely are in route
Posted on 7/8/18 at 8:11 pm to Nawlens Gator
Yes

I get sweaty palms just thinking about what those divers are doing. Those guys have nerves of steel

Your math is off. The last one came out at 7:50PM local time and it’s currently just past 8:00AM local time.

Both air and oxygen tanks are being used.
Most if not all of the cave divers are on rebreathers. They will need pure o2 tanks. They are likely carrying air tanks for the kids, and air tanks are also placed as safeties throughout the cave. I provided a bit more detail in this post

Your comment is totally logical.
But there are photos of a huge storage area on site with lots of warning signs about Oxygen and pictures of the huge Oxygen tanks (not scuba sized but industrial welding sized)
The reports of the decrease in Oxygen in the chamber where the shelf is with the boys are probably where that Oxygen is going, as well as to some of the other chambers along the way.

Must be. For some reason I feel like the first 2 came out at around 10pm CST last night. Maybe that's when the divers started in.

Hahaha nope have been stuck home all weekend and read a ton about this.
Posted on 7/8/18 at 8:47 pm to Dizz
It is certainly interesting.Posted on 7/8/18 at 9:18 pm to Tester1216
Some Thai news reports that the coach was one of the 4 that came out. Would make sense he was supposed to be in the worst condition of all.
Posted on 7/8/18 at 9:43 pm to Dizz
But just from what's been reported about him, I would doubt that he would have willingly gone in the first set. I'm betting he'll be the last of the 13 stranded to come out.
