Was watching this but I decided to go lay in bed. That capsule looks like a tight fit! 69 days down there! I wonder what they did the whole time.

I was watching the first guy get pulled up, but I decided to go stop watching it after that, because I wasn't going to watch it another 15 minutes or whatever it was for another to come up. Pretty cool thing though.

There's 4 of us over, we're drinking a pint of liquor (between all 4) plus 1 beer each per miner out. Let's see how long we last!

The third guy out said:

"Worst Disneyland ride ever. And we had to queue for 69 days"

[lol]

Good to see they still have a sense of humour about it, after so much time stuck down there.

He should. But then something bad would happen and that would be blamed for the silliness.

Good for them! All the focus is on the miners, as it probably should be right now, but how would you have liked to be one of the paramedics or the mine expert who went down first to check on the miners and the mine before sending them up?

Also, the anti-social hermit in me is thinking "The fun is over, now the madness sets in for these guys". As an expert in one of the news articles said: "They're in for the surprise of their lives. From here on out, their lives will have changed. There aren't too many of those guys who get along because of all the attention, the lawsuits, the movie deals. Once money gets involved, it gets ugly."
Be sure you're not looking in a mirror before you start pointing fingers.

The last guy is not coming out. There's no one to shut the thing closed from the outside so they're going to sacrifice him and leave him down there. [approve]
