Are you trolling or serious? .... Sorry to be rude... If so.. They went into the cave when it was dry. It started to rain heavy well they were inside and flooded the entrance... As it rained more, it pushed them farther into the cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why were they so deep into a cave that they couldn't get out when they noticed the rain? They're a soccer team. Were they sight seeing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brilac Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 It's amazing they were all found alive after 10 days. It will be even more of a miracle if they all make it out alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The articles I read didn't say why they were in the cave to start with. Why would an entire team visit a cave known for its depth during the rainy season?

Toews Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 A Navy SEAL died on the way back from the cave. How do children make it out when a trained person couldn't? Seems awfully risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems awfully risky. This I find interesting but obviously also sad. From what I have read, divers have been making many trips back and forth to deliver food, water, oxygen, deliver letters to loved ones etc. It must have been a bit of a freak accident, he would have been with a partner as well. I also didn't know it was a SEAL? Why are the Navy SEALS operating in Thailand? Is it an American soccer team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer4now Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 They will most likely have to bore a tunnel or something.. I believe Elon Musk is sending experts to the site. They are lucky to be alive/found... so in terms of living their long term it should be no problem. I wonder how how they bring supplies in a shaft that is so tight.. I’m pretty sure I saw a table or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This particular SEAL came out of retirement to help with the rescue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote The boys, aged between 11 and 16, went missing with their 25-year-old coach after soccer practice on June 23, setting out on an adventure to explore the cave complex near the border with Myanmar and celebrate a boy's birthday.
