 Topic: Chilean Miners Free!
Posted: 13 October 2010 at 6:12pm |
Can't help but have a great big smile and a tear of joy when seeing the minors appear from being underground for 69 days, and seeing their wife's again. What an amazing feeling that would be! FREE!!!

So cool to wake up this morning to see 22 more miners freed! And now up to about 24.
The rescuers have been superb for sure!!

Even though it must have been terrible for the miners and their families all this time, what an interesting story it's been! I love that they've all made a pact to split media money and never have to work again

Yep don't think they'll ever see the inside of a mine again.... apparently the only bolivan guy will be flown home in the president's (of bolivia) private plane, and they've given him his own piece of land in which he can farm and earn money off!

One of the miners had only been working there 5 days prior to being trapped down there & says he will never mine again...don't blame him 
It will be interesting to see what happens as they are claiming $1m compensation. The company folded after the accident. So hope they get it.
