Following this. Too bad one person had to die already. Is USA helping? It seems weird that no country has any equipment to get them out

kscarrol · 07-08-2018, 09:43 AM

Good news so far, first four kids have been successfully rescued!

Actually only four got out. They called it a day.

The extraction process is crazy... good job to the rescuers!

ny325 · 07-08-2018, 03:52 PM

God bless the kids, and the rescue team.

jgoens · 07-08-2018, 04:35 PM

At least things are going positive now.

ShopVac · 07-09-2018, 06:46 AM

Got a 5th kid out. What a process...

kscarrol · 07-09-2018, 08:04 AM

Saying seven out now! Hopefully the rest are out today.

DETRoadster · 07-09-2018, 10:16 AM

Read an article today that said some sections of the escape route in the cave require rock climbing gear to scale. I gotta say, these little dudes are freakin' bad asses! Two weeks in a cave, learn to swim, learn to dive, learn to rock climb. WTF?! Amazing young boys.

Captain Blood · 07-09-2018, 10:45 AM

4 more out today.

bd307 · 07-09-2018, 02:23 PM

Been following as well and getting a lot of media coverage for some reasons.

Anyway, Elon just made a press saying they are sending their equipment to there and posted a video. I am sick of this guy and his company. He could have just sent the equipment and said nothing if he is really trying to help.

Not only that, but they are doing all of this after an ordeal in which they've had less than usual food, water, sleep, etc.

Probably some future Thai SEALs in that bunch.

This. Don’t like how he is using this event for publicity. Sad part is someone in Hollywood will probably make a movie about this and make millions. While the people involved in this event, the kids, coaches and rescuer won’t benefit from it.

Unless Clint Eastwood makes it, and uses the actual kids (like the train movie).

obert · 07-09-2018, 05:52 PM

I am selling save the kid shirts. Anyone want one?

J/K happy to see them getting out alive!

I get it, the dude is an attention whore... however; I cannot hate on him for trying to help. He offered an option which is more than just about anyone else did.
