Steady as she goes. Awesome to see 7 clear and 5 hopefully soon. Interesting they interviewed some of the divers-rescuers and some looked hardy over 20 themselves. One silver lining has to be that these kids have already made the path once, though dry and that's a major factor, and don't seem like the fragile type. Good sense of adventure and being a tight knit team to begin with has to be aiding them. Shit at 10 its easy to run head long into dangerous (exciting) scenarios with zero realization that you actually have to climb back down the tree. They had an adult with them, have to imagine he'll have more than some 'splaining to do with authorities down the road.

I knew a few combat divers in the service. The scuba training was amongst the toughest. Don’t quote me but the only 17% of those who go through it the rest have a Big Chicken Dinner or what you prob know as fail it

Water has a way of screwing with your head and leaving the body semi useful. I've listened to a couple of old vets talk about early Frogman days and couldn't imagine it . Did they fully boot and discharge or demote divers who failed training?


Didn't realize the kids are still in isolation. Poor parents standing in the viewing windows waving like they are born all over again lol.

They wouldn’t be discharged actually so it wasn’t a complete chicken dinner. They were the tops just qualifying so they still stayed in

That is nice, my cat might push me to the cabinet where I keep the cat food but he’d say your own your own after I feed him

Croatia National Team Will Donate World Cup Prize Money To Children's Charity
http://www.sportbible.com/football/n...arity-20180717
The Croatian national team will donate the entirety of the World Cup prize money to a special fund for children, it has emerged.

Coming second out of 32 teams brings a big pool of prize money (£21 million according to reports) for the players and coaching staff but the group have elected to donate their bonuses to underprivileged children so that they can go on summer holidays.


Good on you Croatia
