It's a long one today, guys! Today we pickup where we left off, the 12 boys & their coach being discovered alive after 10 days trapped in a cave with no food, and limited oxygen. Finding them was the easy part, compared to bringing each one out safely. It took almost a week to settle on a plan, & when they did, their best bet had a probable 80% fatality rate. But the heroic actions of the hundreds of rescuers involved would give the boys & their coach a better chance than anyone could've thought.

Be sure to check out 'The Boys in the Cave' by Matt Gutman, where I got a ton of information about this case. If you read the whole book, you'll get an even more in depth take on this rescue mission.
