NFT: Thai Rescue: How they pulled it off

UESBLUE : 7/13/2018 9:24 pm
On the 10th day, July 2, with little hope of discovering anything but bodies, a pair of British divers working to extend a network of guide ropes popped up near a narrow ledge.

Suddenly, they saw 13 emaciated people perched in the dark. The Wild Boars had run out of food and light but had survived by sipping the condensation from the cave walls.

Great piece with the complete play by play.

of the most amazing rescues in history. It could not have happened without incredible cooperation and coordination. It shows what we're capable of when we work together.

Just incredible. Thanks for the post.
Not mentioned in the article, but something I overhearx

was that Israel gave up military secrets in innovative radio technology to help communicate in the cave. Has anyone read about this?

On a promo for the radio show, "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me".

Announcer: This week we saw the amazing rescue of the Thai boy's soccer team, but in all the commotion they forgot to rescue the team that they were playing".
