Re: The Trapped Chilian Miners
As I woke up for a while during the night I put my radio on at 4am and listened to the BBC World Service as the first miner being brought to the surface, which was great.
It sounds as if they are going to take great care with the miner's health, mental and physical. The will receive counselling for 6 months.
Appparently five of the miners have not only their wives waiting for them at the top of the shaft but their mistresses too!
If I was one of the wives who only discovered my husband had a mistress because of this drama, I would be tempted to push him back down the mine again, head first!

Re: The Trapped Chilian Miners
I was listening to 5Live throughout the night, it was very emotional when the first miner was brought to the surface.The resilience and courage these 33 men have shown is a tremendous inspiration. I truly hope that each one of these men will be safely delivered to the surface and their families.
13 men have been rescued so far...

Re: The Trapped Chilian Miners
Thank goodness all the miner are safely on the surface again and in remarkably good condition considering they have been confined in a hole in the ground for so long.It seems incredible that some of them have heart conditions and diabetes yet were still permitted work as miners, I doubt that would be the case in the UK.

Re: The Trapped Chilian Miners
Hasn't this been the most inspiring News for a long time.The courage of these Miners, the way so many engineers have worked together to rescue them, their families setting up camp on the Site. The Country of Chile drawing together with full support including their President who greeted each one.
PLUS Countries around the world united in their concern, wonder and joy to see these men and their families safely re-united.
