So back on the Thai soccer team, apparently they are all still ok but they are going to be in that cave for perhaps MONTHS....a Thai Navy SEAL (who knew they had SEALs ) sadly died in attempting to help those poor lads out. It's the rainy season (fucking who has a rainy SEASON...in America seasons mean changes in temperature not precipitation) so the rescuers are battling rain AND still pumping out millions of gallons of water...in the meantime they are looking for any chimneys which might make extraction easier.


Crazy stuff....it really would suck to be stuck in a cave and have underwater cave diving be your only way out and in less than ideal conditions X should give us a run down of what those divers might be experiencing.

Feed the boys, get them ready to swim. They can do it.

I hope so, the good news it they have to be smaller than the guys trying to save them.


That would be an absolute nightmare situation for me....being stuck in a cave and the only way out is through an underwater cave...no thank you

Being squashed to death slowly and alone in a cave would be mine but enough about sad thoughts let keep it happy.

Disorientation, no experience regulating breathing with no idea what is up from down under black water is terrifying. These kids are in a bad place but fingers crossed they all make it out. Keep thinking if they could damn the entrance somehow to prevent filling, or there has to be openings above. Wonder how far down from surface they are.


It's tragically humbling, for all of our advances in circuitry and machine to manipulate mother Nature she is still very capable of swallowing us up

I just heard it takes the rescue guys5-6 hours to get to them, and of course 5-6 hours out. Apparently the area they are in is running out of oxygen. Elon musk offered to send over some equipment to help them, I don’t know if the Thais took him up on it. It appears they will make a move soon or at least want to.

It's crazy. Families interviewed and have to write letters back and forth to communicate. Kid says all he wants is KFC..in Thailand..so his Father says we'll be waiting and go together. They need to get a move on with resources and equipment, hard to imagine nothing bigger was available as far as pumps. The one they showed was hardly inspiring ffs get the damn Army Engineers involved asap.
