PLUS Countries around the world united in their concern, wonder and joy to see these men and their families safely re-united.
Could'nt agree more. What a wonderful story it is, in these times of nothing but doom and gloom. A wonderful boost to a poor country like Chile, and great help from other countries, which was very heartwarming. When the last guy came up, and hugged the President,then they all sang the National Anthem, that really brought a tear to the eye.

It was an amazing rescue.....kept tuning in to see how it was going, hoping that nothing had gone wrong with the capsule. Each miners reunion with their families was so emotional, it brought tears to my eyes. Well done to all in Chile.......

I note that the Chilean president is to visit Britain and have a meeting with the Queen and the PM and he's going to bring some bits of rock with him to give to the PM and the Queen. Bet they can't wait
