I had to force myself away from the TV - also, it makes me cry every time one of them surfaces. <3

I'm crying just catching up with the CNN liveblog. What an amazing rescue so far... and I can't believe now four (I think) rescuers have actually gone down into the mine to help out. I guess they're pretty confident about their equipment!

The only bit that really interested me was whether or not the wife would attack the one guy when he finally came up. Since his mistress of 10 years showed up.

Yikes. I don't know much about the specific miners, but I'm glad that now about half of them are safe.

Yes! I can't watch video at work, but I keep track of the CNN site for pictures and updates. (I also teared up like whoa.)

I hope the rest of the rescues go as smoothly!

Me. I watched the BBC livestream all night last night, got two hours of sleep, went to school, came home, and watched the rest of it.

Eeeeeeeee! I'm so glad they all got out! It's nice to have a news story with a happy ending, you know? And what an adventure!
