Personally I think this is nothing less than a remarkable miracle and the Chilean people have shown superhuman resilience. It's been an extremely long journey for those involved and is a lesson of communication and solidarity for all people in the world. It shows signs that everything in the world is not all doom and gloom as often the media depicts it however that there are always clouds with a silver lining. I applaud the courage and strength of everybody involved in the rescue operation and hope that I don't get to see anything similar to this for a very long time. If this isn't being shown in the part of the world where you live, you should take this opportunity to watch the final minutes of this historic event online as I'm sure it's one of those things you will recall exactly where you where when it happened.

Just about three hours ago they rescued the last miner. It's a miracle that 33 miners managed to live for 70 days, 700 m under ground.

And yet when they came to the surface, they were all cleaned up and shaved.

They sent down razors and such down the little hole where things like food were also sent.

These brave people have shown great spirit, it really makes you feel good about the human race. People teaming together to perform a deed of pure 100% good karma.

I really think they will hesitate if they ever have to go underground again though, if I was them I would take up flying

They make it sound as if a dirty mine isn't a bad home, especially for graduates who can't find a job.

Nice to know they're all in 'good' health

It is not just about the miner who got trapped, but also the people who led the rescue operation.
They managed to locate the miners 600m under ground, to make a small hole so they could get supplies and then a big one for the miners to be transported out.
That is really something incredible if you think they have to drill 600m under the ground, without causing the mine to collapse and with enough accuracy to reach the miners.

That is so true. To be honest, i am suprised on how smooth everything went for them to save the miners. So much could have gone wrong but didn't.
