I am just happy they did not take 4 months to get them like they said it would take.. Knew they could get out faster then that.


No doubt. Every report was using a worst case scenario. Most were just repeating the same thing. I understand why they do it that way, but still, it wasn't as bleak on the whole once they started pumping water.

The magnitude of such an operation will escape many who are unfamiliar with the technical aspects of cave diving. This is truly an incredible accomplishment. Heroes in every sense of the word.

Until it stopped raining it was unknown how much water would get pumped out. Ok even at 4 hours that is still dangerous for a kid with no swimming or diving experience. Weather and everything else totally worked out in their favor making for the best conditions possible which is great.

3 minutes ago Amanda Hodge said per twitter that the remaining g rescue crew is almost out.

Also per twitter clean up of the site has begun. Tanks, pipes, ropes etc.

Weakest we're in last group per twitter also.

Pretty god damn incredible. Prayers to the Thai diver who lost his life in the rescue efforts, glad to know his death wasn't in vain.

Daniel Sutton confirms three seals and the doc are now out. Thank God and prayers for the family and friends of the one seal that died.

Yes. I’ve been following Daniel’s tweets.

Wonder what they will do with the cave now? Small explosive to prohibit further entry?

I've read that Thais have a much more casual attitude toward hazards like this, so probably nothing.
