My mind still reels at the fact that all 33 survived a third of a mile underground, and for over 69 days!
I know that the first rescue worker set down was a 'technical advisor". I assume that the rest were medics but I might be wrong.
I think so, the first guy was the engineer, then a medic, but I don't know who the third guy was, or if there are more than 3.
The thing had a camera in the cart to make sure the people didn't panic.
Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck and Steve Buscemi are still down there.
But Bruce is staying down there to let Ben escape for some reason.
Fifth rescue worker is out. They just sent the capsule back down for the sixth...all alone down there now.
...and here comes the capsule...
Worker's in and now it's gone back up!
Edit:...here it comes! And he's out! They're all out!

Victory!
Here's to the wonderful news that everyone around is safe and sound above ground!

Russian components, American components. All made in Taiwan!
I have been watching this constantly... a remarkable and inspiring story. The Chileans and their President have so much to be proud of... I am so happy this ended so well, and went so utterly smoothly.
Now that everyone is safe, I think we can start to humor it up a bit:
As soon as the miners get out of hospital, they can all go home and Chile out a bit.

In less than 24 hours, they got 39 people, including every last miner, and the medical techs, out of a 1/3 mile deep copper and gold mine. Simply amazing.
WARNING: LAME JOKE TO FOLLOW:
It's a shame that they can't buy alcohol now that they're free, since they're miners.

^^ I think at least one of them is a 49er.
That was great to watch. I wish everything could go so smoothly and work out so well.
